New device empowers study of SARS-CoV-2 mutant range by ultrasequencing Kumar Jeetendra | February 15, 2021 SARS-CoV-2 genome is three times larger than flu genome. Both consist of NRA molecules which mutate when replicate. It is essential to know its mutant spectrum, in other words, its”fingerprints”, to achieve an appropriate treatment that reduces its infectivity -the capacity of pathogens to invade organisms and cause infections-, since its composition of variables could …
Genomic Data Commons offers the biggest asset in cancer genomics Kumar Jeetendra | February 27, 2021 The National Cancer Institute’s Genomic Data Commons (GDC), launched in 2016 by then-Vice President Joseph Biden and hosted at the University of Chicago, has become one of the largest and most widely used resources in cancer genomics, with over 3.3 petabytes of data from more than 65 jobs and more than 84,000 anonymized patient cases, …
Researchers create shape memory polymer to comprehend the advancement of coronary illness Kumar Jeetendra | March 3, 2021 Cardiovascular disease is still the number one cause of death globally. Unfortunately, the heart cannot regenerate new tissue, because the cardiomyocytes, or heart muscle cells, don’t divide after birth. In their paper, published in APL Bioengineering by AIP Publishing, Syracuse researchers developed a shape memory polymer to grow cardiomyocytes. Raising the substance’s temperature from 30 …
