  • Heliscope instrument pricing announced

    Helicos™ Genetic Analysis System $1,350,000 USD The Helicos™ Genetic Analysis System is the first True Single Molecule Sequencing™ (tSMS) platform available to leading genomics researchers. The HeliScope™, the world’s first DNA Microscope™, provides superior throughput to open new research avenues, increases site productivity and dramatically reduces the time for completing complex genomic experiments. Novel reagent packaging and intuitive software provide for easy operation, automated tracking of consumables, and overall management of the System. The HeliScope™ Analysis Engine provides extensive computing power for near real time image analysis and to eliminate waiting for data. It comes standard with 28 terabytes of data storage. A web application supports remote monitoring and administration of the System. Includes: HeliScope , Sample Loader, Analysis Engine, System Software, Installation, Start-Up Kit and One Year Warranty.

    Helicos tSMS Genomic Signature Sequencing (GSS)™ Reagent Kit – K-GSSA $18,000 USD The tSMS™ reagent kit for GSS™ contains the reagents and consumables necessary for performing Genomic Signature Sequencing™ on the Helicos Genetic Analysis System. Includes: tSMS Reagents, (2) 25 Channel Application-specific Flow Cells, Sample Loading Solutions, System Maintenance Kit, and GSS Specific Reagents.

    Helicos True Single Molecule Sequencing (tSMS)™ Multi-Pass Reagent Kit – K-MPSA
    $18,000 USD The tSMS™ reagent kit for sequencing contains the reagents and consumables necessary for performing high accuracy sequencing applications on the Helicos Genetic Analysis System. Includes: tSMS Reagents (for two pass sequencing), (2) 25 Channel Application-specific Flow Cells, Sample Loading Solutions, System Maintenance Kit and Multi-Pass Sequencing Specific Reagents.
    Just released on Helicos' website. The instrument is significantly cheaper than the previously discussed number of $2 Million, but still more expensive than the competition.

    I hope to put up a reagent/true-cost-of-ownership analysis soon.

    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...
