Therefore, simply recasting our original problem into a slightly different framework converts genome assembly into a tractable computational problem. The time required to run a computer ...

Giulia Guidi, assistant professor of computer science in the Cornell Ann ... When sequencing a genome, biologists end up with thousands or millions of short DNA sequences that must be put together ...

Computer programs then take those segments ... That's the problem with genome assembly," Schatz said. "Our new program, using the latest sequencing data and the latest assembly algorithms, knows ...

As of today, the database has an additional entry: Caulobacter ethensis-2.0. It is the world's first fully computer-generated genome of a living organism, developed by scientists at ETH Zurich.

3D rendered illustration of chromosomes. Genetics concept. Chromosome ideograms showing the whole-genome assembly of the human CHM13 genome, exceeding all prior human genome assemblies in terms of ...

The genome assembly -- a compilation of millions of DNA sequences into a useful genetic portrait -- provides researchers with a valuable tool for exploring the Compositae family's many related ...

Researchers used these overlapping segments to identify the next nucleotides in the sequence, incrementally extending the genome assembly one fragment at a time. These repetitive gap regions were ...

Computer programs then take those segments and determine ... The old software would basically give up on these hard parts of the genome. That's the problem with genome assembly," Schatz said. "Our new ...
