Microorganisms are ubiquitous in all kinds of environments on earth – they live in soil, water, inside or on the surface of animals and plants, and can even survive in extreme conditions....
What Is RNA Splicing?
RNA splicing is a post-transcriptional modification process that occurs in eukaryotic cells. When a gene is transcribed, the initial RNA product is called pre-mRNA,...
What is Chimeric RNA?
Chimeric RNA, also known as fusion RNA, refers to RNA molecules that are formed as a result of the fusion of two or more different RNA transcripts. Chimeric RNA, a...
Introduction to Variant Analysis
Rare DNA changes within a population of cells are the first manifestations of mutations, which are the fuel for evolution. The research of genomic variation...
What is CRISPR-Cas9?
CRISPR-Cas9 is a gene editing technology that has changed the landscape of biological research. It stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats...
Whole genome sequencing of viruses is playing an increasingly important role in clinical practice. On the one hand, analyzing the drug resistance information of the virus can assist in more...
Within the tumor genome, somatic mutations hold the ability to yield altered proteins that trigger immune responses against tumors. These mutated proteins fragment into peptides and are...
