Most bacteria cannot be grown in the laboratory, which means that their genetic diversity is hidden to traditional culture-based studies. We combined a new DNA extraction method, long-read sequencing, ...

A team of chemical biologists at the University of Washington, working with colleagues at Oxford Nanopore Technologies, has developed a protein sequencing process that involves pulling proteins ...

Despite advances in mass spectrometry and emerging single-molecule approaches, sequencing peptides at the single-molecule level remains a central challenge in proteomics. Here we present a ‘reverse ...
