Multiomic 6-base data from cell-free DNA enhances the performance of liquid biopsy classifiers

14 Mar 2025

Early cancer detection has the potential to significantly improve treatment outcomes and survival rates. Investigate the roles of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) as biomarkers for early-stage colorectal cancer (CRC) detection in cell-free DNA (cfDNA), using duet evoC for whole genome 6-base sequencing. Discover how the results support the hypothesis that distinguishing between 5mC and 5hmC can improve the sensitivity of liquid biopsy tests for early cancer detection.

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.Next Generation SequencingNext-generation sequencing (NGS), also known as whole-genome sequencing, high-throughput sequencing and massive parallel sequencing, produces and analyses thousands to millions of nucleotide sequences at once. Sequencing systems operate via varying technologies depending on the manufacturer, including sequencing by synthesis, ligation, pyrosequencing, ion semiconductor and single-molecule real-time sequencing. For NGS, library preparation is paramount to successful sequencing. In this section, explore a range of library preparation kits, from targeted, amplicon-based or hybridization-based kits including epigenomic, transcriptomic and genomic workflows to fragmentation kits.

These changes are not caused by alterations to the DNA sequence. Three of the main systems responsible for the initiation of epigenetic change are DNA methylation, histone modification and non-coding RNA-associated gene silencing.Genome SequencingGenome sequencing involves determining the complete DNA sequence of an organism's genome. It provides crucial information about genetic variations, mutations, and diseases. Advances in sequencing technologies, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), have accelerated research in genomics, diagnostics, and personalized medicine.
