Pyrosequencing can be used to detect DNA and RNA from almost any source, and has applications in bacteria resistance screening, drug development, epigenetics, and many other fields. If no light is ...

Figure 1: Enzymatic cascade of the pyrosequencing reaction in the example of a bisulfite-treated template sequence, including a CpG position that is methylated on approximately 50% of all molecules.

DNA methylation is a form of epigenetics in which gene expression is encouraged or inhibited by the addition of a methyl group on cytosines. It is highly implicated in development, cell ...

Similar to soil and sediment, activated sludge (AS) is a highly complex system of eukaryotes (protozoa and fungi), bacteria, archaea and viruses, in which bacteria are dominant. Despite its importance ...

The sequencing of DNA molecules started with the development of chemical cleavage method of Maxam-Gilbert during 1970s followed by di-deoxy chain termination method. However, the whole genome ...

Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are promising technologies for energy and products recovery coupled with wastewater treatment and have attracted increasing attention (Liu and Logan, 2004; Lovley, ...
