1. The Benefits of NGS Analysis and Analysis of Gene Expression December 14, 2011 NGS analysis helps us to identify human genome variations of functional significance by mapping next generation sequence data to known elements such as mutations and regulatory sites. It is mainly used for serial analysis of gene expression. Though crucial to Biology and genetics, most people don’t understand NGS analysis at all when they encounter anything to do with pathway analysis or analysis of gene expression, more with pathway analysis than is more evident. So here’s a brief list of benefits that NGS analysis affords us, provided we find the right software and resources for research to ... (read more) Author: pawan techmagnate

2. Turning the spotlight on recombinant proteins November 17, 2011 The proteins, peptides and lysates in our antibody catalog are as important to researchers as the antibodies themselves. Recombinant proteins are routinely used to study and analyze gene expression and protein synthesis in vivo, either alone or by the generation of antibody probes. The recombinant proteins on our antibody database are produced using expression plasmids, or vectors, to generate a recombinant form of DNA which then expresses the recombinant protein via a host cell. To do this, a DNA sequence encoding the protein of interest is inserted into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic host ... (read more) Author: Gen Federico

3. Genes May Play a Role in Oral Cancer October 14, 2011 Cancer is caused by many different factors, some of which are known and some aren’t. Some cancers are easier to tell what causes them than other. Some types of cancers have different causes than other types. Some cancers are easier to predict. Many people have a misunderstanding about how cancer is caused, and new research is showing that oral cancer may be related to our genetics. A recent study from the Ontario Cancer Institute at University Health Network Toronto was posted in BioMed Central’s open access journal BMC Cancer, showing a link between Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma and a par...

4. Androgenic hair August 10, 2011 Hair follicles are to varying degrees sensitive to androgen, primarily testosterone and its derivatives, with different areas on the body having different sensitivity. As androgen levels increase, the rate of hair growth and the weight of the hairs increase. Genetic factors determine both individual levels of androgen and the hair follicle's sensitivity to androgen, as well as other characteristics such as hair colour, type of hair and hair retention.Rising levels of androgen during puberty cause vellus hair to transform into terminal hair over many areas of the body. The sequence of appearanc... (read more) Author: hngdf fdsaw

5. FISH India,Cost FISH India,Fluoroscent Insitu Hybridization Delhi,FISH August 03, 2011 FISH FISH ( Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization ) is a cytogenetic technique developed by Christoph Lengauer that is used to detect and localize the presence or absence of specific DNA sequences on chromosomes. FISH uses fluorescent probes that bind to only those parts of the chromosome with which they show a high degree of sequence similarity. Fluorescence microscopy can be used to find out where the fluorescent probe bound to the chromosomes. FISH is often used for finding specific features in DNA for use in genetic counseling, medicine, and species identification. FISH can also be used ... (read more) Author: Pankaj Nagpal

8. Researchers Confirm Genetic Link between Autism and Schizophrenia November 16, 2010 Researchers from Atlanta's Emory University have added to the growing evidence of a genetic link between schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and bipolar disorder. "We have uncovered a variation that confers a very high risk for ASD, schizophrenia, and neurodevelopmental disorders," says Dr. Daniel Moreno-De-Luca from the university's department of human genetics, "We believe it may also increase risk for other psychiatric conditions such as bipolar disorder." The gene variation involves a missing sequence of 15 genes normally present on chromosome 17. These genes were missing i... (read more) Author: Alice Wolfe

9. Peptide Nucleic acids- Robust Probe Hybridization Technology October 01, 2010 Peptide nucleic acid (PNA ) is an artificially synthesized polymer that is capable of binding DNA and RNA in a sequence-specific manner. Since the discovery of its unique binding properties, PNA has been employed in a wide variety of biomedical applications, including genetic research, diagnostics, and experimental therapeutics (1). This article will focus on the diagnostic PNA assays that have gained widespread use in the pathology setting and briefly touch upon other promising applications of this technology. Unlike DNA and RNA , which have backbones of repeating sugarphosphate units, the... (read more) Author: Bio synthesis

10. The Human Genetic Sequence June 14, 2010 The human genetic sequence will allow researchers to make rapid progress in understanding the relationship between genes and behavior. The finding that we have far fewer genes than expected suggests that environmental influences play a greater role in our development than was previously thought. Understanding how a relatively small number of genes translate into the incredible complexity of a human being will be one of the challenges of the future. "We now have the list of parts of the human body, " said Sir John Sulston, who spearheaded UK efforts to crack the human code. "Now we have to... (read more) Author: allan lee
