Genomics & Genetics Research

 
The availability of human genome sequences has allowed the identification of many human genetic variations and mutations that may play critical roles in diagnosis and drug treatment. We offer technology consulting and services to support research and development in the following areas,
  • HIV/AIDS research and development
  • Cancer research and development
  • Genome and genetic approach in epidemiology and clinical research
With the development of the state-of-the-art genome and genetics technology, comprehensive data analysis and data management have become an emerging challenge in research and development. We have a strong partnership with SoftGentics and offer outstanding bioinformatics services in genome and genetic analysis and customized computational tools for the new generation sequencer of 454, Solexa and SOLiDTM.

SoftGenetics tools that we leverage for our bioinformatics offering:

Mutation Surveyor application

Mutation Surveyor® Sequence analysis and assembly software utilizes our patent pending physical trace comparison technology which provides accuracy >99% when using bi-directional Phred 20 quality sequence traces. The software is an excellent tool for both discovery and diagnostic applications, and accepts sequence traces from all major sequencing systems such as those marketed by Applied BioSystems, NextGene applicationFoster City CA, Beckman Coulter or MegaBACE systems, and is compatible with either terminator or primer chemistries. The software’s unique technology provides the best tool for locating all DNA variants: Homozygote, Heterozygote, Indels and heterozygote insertions or deletions. 


 SoftGenetics’ NextGENesoftware, is a unique program for analyzing “Next Generation” Sequencing data, generated by all of the new platforms.  NextGENe’s “Biologist Friendly” user interface combined with its speed and unique algorithms allows analysis on low-cost 64 bit hardware.  NextGENe’s simplicity and powerful algorithms backed by SoftGenetics world class technical support nearly eliminates the need for additional bioinformatics resources. NextGENe is a software suite designed to allow biologists to easily analyze the vast amount of data generated by “Next Generation” Sequencing systems. NextGENe provides an intuitive Windows® user interface and a host of applications.
