  • Hello from a core facility for diagnostics and research

    Dear users,

    I have joined SEQanswers today and would like to introduce myself.

    I have recently started working at a NGS core facility as scientific head, which involves a lot of troubleshooting.
    Besides diagnostics we do research into human diseases and collaborate with researchers from different fields. We therefore get DNA and RNA from different species and materials. We have Illumina sequencers, but use kits from different companies for sample and library preps. For nucleic acid quantification we use different machines depending on our needs (Bioanalyzer, TapeStation, Qubit, Nanodrop).

    Training:
    Master in Biology (Genetics, Botany, Communications Sciences)
    PhD in Human Biology (cancer research)
    1. Postdoc in a comprehensive cancer center
    2. Postdoc at a university clinic (Human Genetics)

    I hope to expand and my knowledge and contribute what I have learned.

    Best regards
    DarkStar

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin


      The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...

      Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
      by seqadmin


      Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
