  • Hello from Iowa City

    Hi,

    I am a PhD student in the University of Iowa, majoring in Genetics.

    I work a small but very vertically-integrated rat genomics lab, and the part of the project I'd be following includes, among other things, the union of genomic, transcriptomic and metabomic (Sorry for all the omic-dropping here) to study the genomic risks of metabolic syndrome.

    The majority of my NGS need is RNA-seq, which is currently planned to be dealt with ISU's Solexa, but I'll look at possibilities to use the local SOLiD instead.

    My work currently ranges from animal care to Bioperl scripting, but personally I enjoy the more downstream of it much, especially when I don't have much of an abstract thinking to deal with the upstream matters.

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
