Combining melting curve analysis enhances the multiplexing capability of digital PCR. Here, we developed a 14‐plex assay to simultaneously measure single nucleotide mutations and amplifications of KRAS and GNAS, which are common driver genes in pancreatic cancer precursors. This assay accurately quantified variant allele frequencies in clinical samples

TGF‐β has a complex role in cancer, exhibiting both tumor‐suppressive and tumor‐promoting properties. Using a series of differentiated tumoroids, derived from different stages and mutational background of colorectal cancer patients, we replicate this duality of TGF‐β in vitro. Notably, the atypical but highly aggressive KRASQ22K mutation rendered early‐

Specific Nucleic Acid Detection Using a Nanoparticle Hybridization Assay [PDF]
Simple methods to detect biomolecules including specific nucleic acid sequences have received renewed attention since the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus pandemic. Notably, biomolecule detection that uses some form of signal amplification will have some form of amplification-related error, which in the polymerase ...

The Effect of Mismatch Primers on the Efficiency of Amplification in Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reactions [PDF]
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a method used in many research protocols to amplify a small amount of a short segment of DNA to millions of copies. PCR is used for many taxonomic studies, as well as for some medical diagnostic procedures. Through PCR,

There is an unmet need in metastatic breast cancer patients to monitor therapy response in real time. In this study, we show how a noninvasive and affordable strategy based on sequencing of plasma samples with longitudinal tracking of tumour fraction paired with a statistical model provides valuable information on treatment response in advance of the ...

In silico estimation of annealing specificity of query searches in DNA databases [PDF]
We consider DNA implementations of databases for digital signals with retrieval and mining capabilities. Digital signals are encoded in DNA sequences and retrieved through annealing between query DNA primers and data carrying DNA target sequences.
