SC INBRE Supported Core
The Molecular Analytics Core is supported by NIGMS GM103499, MUSC’s Office of the Vice President for Research, and the MUSC Department of Regenerative Medicine and Cell Biology.
The mission of the core is to provide MUSC and other regional investigators with expertise, instrumentation, training, and services for a range of molecular technologies. The core currently offers Bioanalyzer service for qualitative analysis of eukaryotic total RNA and quantitative analysis of DNA libraries. Several instruments are available to users, including qPCR, PCR, NanoDrop, microplate reader, and Qubit fluorometers. Following certification of training, users are free to schedule their use at their convenience. The core also offers bioinformatic analysis in support of bulk RNA-seq data analysis and other miscellaneous applications (database mining, cloning design, etc.) For RNA-seq projects, the core can access raw data from providers, run data analysis pipelines, securely store the data until publication, and assist users with submission of project data to public archives.
