Abstract: Nucleic acid molecule constructs, methods of making such construct, and methods of sequencing using such constructs are described herein. The nucleic acid molecule constructs can include a template sequence and a copy of the template sequence, along with a sequencing primer region associated with the template sequence and a copy of the sequencing primer region associated with the copy of the template sequence, which allows the template sequence and the copy of the template sequence to be simultaneously sequenced. Also described are methods of using the nucleic acid molecule constructs for methylation sequencing.

Abstract: Described herein is a composition, comprising: a first strand comprising a first portion and a first copy portion, wherein the first copy portion is a copy of the first portion except that substantially all cytosine bases in the first copy portion are methylated; and a second strand comprising a second portion and a second copy portion, wherein the second copy portion is a copy of the second portion except that substantially all cytosine bases in the second copy portion are methylated. In some implementations, at least one cytosine base in the first portion or the second portion is not methylated.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for classification of thyroid tumors through the analysis of the expression patterns of specific microRNAs in fine needle aspiration samples. Thyroid tumor classification according to a microRNA expression signature allows optimization of diagnosis and treatment, as well as determination of signature-specific therapy.
