Wading through a sea of suppliers to find the right fit is a daunting task, but LabConsumer is here to help. We spoke to a number of researchers whose uses of oligos include DNA sequencing, DNA diagnostics, and developmental and clinical antisense research (in which DNA or RNA sequences that are complementary to a coding sequence are introduced--they hybridize to messenger RNA, preventing it from taking part in protein ...
