The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Error tolerant barcodes for single-cell sequencing
Synthesising oligonucleotides using blocks of nucleotides to overcome sequencing errors in error prone single-cell RNA-sequencing.
Targeting HIF-activated collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase expression disrupts collagen deposition and blocks primary and metastatic uveal melanoma growth
We show the importance of hypoxia in activating enzymes that control proper collagen maturation in eye melanoma. Disrupting this process with an inhibitor of the HIF-1/p300 transcription complex leads to disordered collagen structure and reduces tumor growth in the eye and liver in mice xenografts.
