Nonetheless, it's crucial to
sequence multiple cells before trying to identify variants.

That's why most single -
cell DNA
sequencing now relies on
multiple displacement amplification (MDA).
The need to compare
multiple cells» DNA
sequences to distinguish genuine genetic variants from artifacts limits some of the potential of single -
cell sequencing.
HM - SNS allows researchers to
sequence the genomes of single tumor
cells and study
multiple cells simultaneously, both lowering the cost and boosting data analysis for such studies.
The new study looked at DNA
sequences, RNA
sequences and proteomes — meaning all of the proteins encoded in a particularly
cell or tissue — of
multiple cephalopod species to determine how common RNA editing really is.
His team discovered these special
sequences are distributed throughout the human genome, embedded in
multiple genes as shown in the study in
Cell Cycle.
They
sequenced the complete genomes of
multiple regions in each tumour and looked at which mutations were present in all
cells and all regions of each tumour, and which were present in just some.
The transmission of different states of gene expression through
multiple cell divisions and across generations has been termed «epigenetic,» since the underlying DNA
sequence is identical in both states.
For this compilation, I've emphasized publications in which whole - genome or exome
sequencing was employed to
multiple tumors or cancer
cell lines, with the goal of identifying significantly altered genes or pathways in malignant
cells.
For example, during T -
cell development genes encoding the TRB molecules are assembled from
multiple polymorphic gene segments that undergo rearrangements and selection, generating Vb — Db — Jb combinations that are unique in both length and
sequence.
More than half of mammalian genes generate
multiple messenger RNA isoforms that differ in their 3 ′ untranslated regions (3 ′ UTRs) and therefore in regulatory
sequences, often associated with
cell proliferation and cancer; however, the mechanisms coordinating alternative 3 ′ - UTR processing for specific mRNA populations remain poorly defined.
Preliminary FACs screening was performed to remove obvious
multiple -
cell derived clones which led to the selection of 45 clones for
sequencing.
Other uses of having a known link between
multiple DNA
sequencing reads includes studies of structural variations in for instance cancer
cells, and when linking functional genes to taxonomic groups in microbial communities.

multiple sequencing datasets with single -
cell resolution.
