Project description:SPO11-promoted DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) formation is a crucial step for meiotic recombination, and it is indispensable to detect the broken DNA ends accurately for dissecting the molecular mechanisms behind. Here, we report a novel technique, named DEtail-seq (DNA End tailing followed by sequencing), that can directly and quantitatively capture the meiotic DSB 3’ overhang hotspots at single-nucleotide resolution.
Project description:Primary prostate tumor samples sequenced with MSK-IMACT, a hybridization capture-based next-generation sequencing assay. Custom DNA probes were designed for targeted sequencing of all exons and selected introns of 468 genes.
Project description:A custom resequencing array for analysis of field isolates of plasmdium falciparum was created. Test of DNA with genotypes known at all loci genotyped by the microarray as well as test of accuracy correlation with amounts of DNA added to each array Comparison of test DNA from lab and clinical isolates between genotyped generated by next-generation sequencing and this new custom DNA microarray.
Project description:1134 primary and metastatic colorectal tumor samples sequenced with MSK-IMACT, a hybridization capture-based next-generation sequencing assay. Custom DNA probes were designed for targeted sequencing of all exons and selected introns of 341, 410, or 468 genes.
