Journal ArticleDOI

DNA sequence determination by hybridization: A strategy for efficient large-scale sequencing

TL;DR: The concept of sequencing by hybridization (SBH) makes use of an array of all possible n-nucleotide oligomers (n-mers) to identify n-mers present in an unknown DNA sequence and may accelerate the mapping and sequencing phases of the human genome project.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA): Ringmaster of the Genome

TL;DR: The evolution from prokaryotes to eukaryotes involved a change of function of PCNA from a 'simple' sliding clamp protein of the DNA polymerase complex to an executive molecule controlling critical cellular decision pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biology of TiO2-oligonucleotide nanocomposites.

TL;DR: The behaviour of 45-Å nanoparticles of titanium dioxide semiconductor combined with oligonucleotide DNA into nanocomposites in vivo and in vitro are described, which possess the chemically and biologically unique new property of a light-inducible nucleic acid endonuclease, which could become a new tool for gene therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

X‐ray fluorescence microprobe imaging in biology and medicine

TL;DR: Characteristic X‐ray fluorescence is a technique that can be used to establish elemental concentrations for a large number of different chemical elements simultaneously in different locations in cell and tissue samples to gain insight into cellular processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA sequencing by hybridization: 100 bases read by a non-gel-based method.

TL;DR: The technological components of large-scale DNA sequencing using the sequencing by hybridization method are in place and the hybridization pattern obtained enabled us to resequence the 100 base pairs by applying an algorithm that tolerates an error rate much higher than was observed in the experiment.
