SomaLogic researchers have described a new approach that may help in early detection of Lung Cancer.

Through a series of chemical modifications of the nucleic acids that make up the aptamer, SomaLogic scientists were able to develop a next generation of aptamers - renamed "SOMAmers" to reflect their increased abilities-that together can bind Proteins of widely diverse types and concentrations.

SomaLogic's proteomic technology is built on two decades of painstaking work to corral aptamers - short stretches of nucleic acids that form Protein-binding three-dimensional structures - into performing exquisitely specific recognition and binding of proteins.

Though I could not completely get the technical analysis,it is good that we can detect lung cancer at an early stage.Thanks for the vital information shared,Deepti. :)
Yes Nagalakshmi.. There are many chemical and technical terms involved..

So I have used simple terms in the thread heading itself to get good picture of the news.. :P

Deepti,
It is good that you have simplified the content for easy understanding. :) .Lung cancer is one of the killer disease. :( :(
