CLONEQC: lightweight sequence verification for synthetic biology [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2010 Synthetic biology projects aim to produce physical DNA that matches a designed target sequence. Chemically synthesized oligomers are generally used as the starting point for building larger and larger sequences. Due to the error rate of chemical synthesis, these oligomers can have many differences from the target sequence.

Structural biology of metal-binding sequences
Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2002 NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography in conjunction with extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy, have contributed to the elucidation of the structural biology of protein-mediated mechanisms of heavy metal homeostasis. Among the most striking aspects of these investigations are the remarkable similarity of metal-ion-transport and ...

Neuropathology, 2011 One of the challenges in neuropathology is to clarify how molecules, functional carriers of uni-dimensional sequence of amino acid or nucleic acid, behave to engender disease-specific pathological processes in complex three-dimensional (3D) structures such as the human brain in an ordered chronological sequence (four-dimensional extension as a whole ...

Strainberry: automated strain separation in low-complexity metagenomes using long reads
Nature Communications, 2021 Existing long-read de novo assembly methods can partially, but not completely, separate strains. Here, the authors develop Strainberry, a metagenome assembly bioinformatic pipeline that exclusively uses longread data to accurately separate and ...

decOM: similarity-based microbial source tracking of ancient oral samples using k-mer-based methods
Microbiome, 2023 Background The analysis of ancient oral metagenomes from archaeological human and animal samples is largely confounded by contaminant DNA sequences from modern and environmental sources.

Predicting multiple conformations via sequence clustering and AlphaFold2
Nature, 2023 AlphaFold2 (ref. 1) has revolutionized structural biology by accurately predicting single structures of proteins. However, a protein’s biological function often depends on multiple conformational substates2, and disease-causing point mutations often ...

High‐throughput sequencing for biology and medicine [PDF]
Molecular Systems Biology, 2013 Advances in genome sequencing have progressed at a rapid pace, with increased throughput accompanied by plunging costs. But these advances go far beyond faster and cheaper. High‐throughput sequencing technologies are now routinely being applied to a wide range of important topics in biology and medicine, often allowing researchers to address important ...

Impact of Nucleic Acid Sequencing on Viroid Biology [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 The early 1970s marked two breakthroughs in the field of biology: (i) The development of nucleotide sequencing technology; and, (ii) the discovery of the viroids. The first DNA sequences were obtained by two-dimensional chromatography which was later replaced by sequencing using electrophoresis technique.
