Glossary Term
Refers to the total protein-encoding capability of an organism's genome. It is also used to refer to the actual total expressed protein complement of an organism or to the identifiable proteins of a single tissue or cell type or subcellular compartment.
Glossary Term
Nonfunctional DNA sequences that are very similar to the sequences of known genes. Many seem to have arisen as functional gene duplications that subsequently underwent mutation and loss of function. Others are structurally similar to mRNA and seem to have arisen by a reverse transcription event followed by integration into the genome. Some pseudogenes are transcribed and may play a role in regulation of its homologous gene.
Glossary Term
Area of repetitive DNA within the genome consisting of multiple, end-to-end copies of a short DNA sequence usually comprised of di-, tri-, or tetranucleotide repeat units.
Glossary Term
A variation of a single nucleotide at a specific location of the genome due to base substitution, present at an appreciable frequency between individuals of a single interbreeding population.
Glossary Term
A variation of a single nucleotide at a specific location of the genome due to base substitution, which is found at any frequency in the population.
Glossary Term
The complete set of RNA transcripts that are produced by the genome, under specific circumstances or in a specific cell.
Technology
A technique designed to rapidly enrich and amplify targets derived from samples that yield low levels of nucleic acids, such as formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues, for use in next-generation sequencing. Briefly, total nucleic acid or genomic DNA (gDNA) is isolated from fresh or FFPE tissues. Total nucleic acid is converted to double-stranded cDNA (dscDNA) and cleaned by solid-phase reversible immobilization (SPRI). Then the dscDNA or gDNA is subjected to end repair, adenylation and ligation with a universal half-functional adapter. The modified DNA sample is then subjected to two rounds of nested low-cycle PCR, where the first round uses target gene-specific primers and the second round uses nested target gene-specific primers that are 5' tagged with a common sequencing adapter. The resulting target amplicon library is cleaned using SPRI and is suitable for use in next generation genomic assays.

Technology
A molecular genetic technique that combines chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) with massively parallel DNA sequencing to map the binding sites of DNA-associated proteins in a sample of cells. First, crosslinked protein-DNA complexes are isolated using ChIP. Next, the crosslinks are broken, the proteins are removed and the purified DNA is modified with adaptor oligonucleotides to facilitate massively parallel DNA sequencing. Following sequencing, the DNA sequences that are obtained can be mapped to their genomic locations.

Technology
A type of high-throughput, multiplex PCR method used to determine abnormal DNA copy number changes of up to 50 genomic DNA or RNA sequences with a single pair of PCR primers. It is frequently used in the detection of genetic aberrations in tumors, and can distinguish sequences differing in only a single nucleotide.
