Genome technology platform provider Jumpcode Genomics has launched technology to improve single cell transcriptional profiling and aid with scientists’ understanding of genomic sequences.   Jumpcode Genomics’ CRISPRclean Single Cell RNA Boost Kit leverages the company’s CRISPR-based technology to remove uninformative sequences from libraries, enhancing single cell experiments and enabling scientists to extract greater insights from genomic […]

Scientists have identified a new class of targeted cancer drugs that offer the potential to treat patients whose tumours have faulty copies of the BRCA cancer genes. The drugs, known as POLQ inhibitors, specifically kill cancer cells with mutations in the BRCA genes while leaving healthy cells unharmed. Crucially, they can kill cancer cells that […]

Genomic sequencing service provider Macrogen Europe has achieved an upgrade to its next generation sequencing (NGS) capacity. The installation of an additional Illumina NovaSeq 6000 high-throughput sequencing system in its headquarters in the Netherlands helps manage increased demand with high-quality results and fast, reliable turnaround times. The addition of the NovaSeq 6000 to Macrogen Europe’s […]
