Quantitative Proteomics: Aptamer-Based Protein Quantification

6 minute read

Published:

Quantitative proteomics is a cutting-edge approach for measuring protein levels in complex biological samples. One innovative method in this field is aptamer-based protein quantification. Aptamers, which are short, single-stranded DNA or RNA molecules, are engineered to specifically bind to target proteins with high precision.

Kaplan-Meier Curve using R

3 minute read

Published:

The Kaplan-Meier curve is a powerful tool in survival analysis, commonly used to estimate the probability of an event—such as survival—at different time intervals. It provides a visual representation of the time it takes for an event to occur across a patient population. This method is especially useful in medical studies where understanding survival rates is key.

Annotation of genetic variants

4 minute read

Published:

Tools such as ANNOVAR, Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) or SnpEff annotate genetic variants (SNPs, INDELS, CNVs etc) present in VCF file. These tools integrate the annotations within the INFO column of the original VCF file.
