This study investigates whether early Mars could have supported RNA polymer stability by analyzing metal-catalyzed RNA degradation under simulated Martian conditions.

This study validates nucleic acid extraction and low-input nanopore sequencing from Mars analog soils to detect genetic sequences indicative of potential life on Mars.

CarrierSeq identifies low-input target reads from nanopore sequencing by filtering out contamination and noise using a statistical test based on channel-specific read patterns.
