This blog features voices from PacBio — and our partners and colleagues — discussing the latest research, publications, and updates about HiFi sequencing.
The PacBio team recently attended the AGBT (Advances in Genome Biology and Technology) Precision Health conference in San Diego, Calif. This was the seventh year of the conference, and it…
Over the past few months, we have highlighted the striking versatility of HiFi sequencing in a series of a dozen blogposts, allowing many different research applications to be performed with…
In living cells, it is typically the proteins that are the work horses of carrying out the myriad of biological functions, and that can be subject to aberrant processes that…
Olga Anczukow (@OlgaAnczukow), PhD, a leading expert on breast cancer at the Jackson Laboratory, recently presented on how HiFi sequencing (PacBio’s highly accurate long-read sequencing technology) with the Iso-Seq method…
The combined accuracy, read length, and coverage uniformity of PacBio HiFi sequence reads enables the characterization of many previously inaccessible regions in the genome. Two new preprints by Oscar Rodriguez,…
PacBio HiFi sequencing for the de novo genome assembly of microbial, fungal, plant, animal and human genomes has been described in hundreds of publications, and its best-in-class performance has been…
The combined accuracy and length of PacBio HiFi reads is utilized by an ever-increasing number of researchers, with numerous new publications and preprints appearing every week. Several months ago, Illumina…
Most higher organisms are diploid, meaning that each cell carries in its nucleus two copies of the individual’s genome, one from its mother and one from its father. Accurately separating…
The scientific community is still abuzz from last week’s announcement of the amazing achievement of the first complete sequence of a human genome by the Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) Consortium. Assembling genomes…
Through the development of long-read, full-length RNA sequencing methods, the scientific community has recognized a fundamental paradigm shift, “from ‘gene-centric’ to ‘isoform-centric’ understanding of human transcriptomes, owing to the frequent…
Long-read PacBio HiFi sequencing has made transformative contributions to many areas of genomics over the past few years, including de novo assembly, calling of all variant types, full-length phased targeted…
Seeking to sequence and characterize entire transcriptomes in one go? Our new Iso-Seq protocol and reverse-transcriptase PCR kit makes it easier, speedier and cheaper. Run on the new Sequel II…
Cotton crops the world over have benefited from the pest-killing protein from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), first used in sprays and then, in 1996, transgenic crops, resulting in reduced insecticide use,…
