Journal ArticleDOI

A User's Guide to the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE)

Richard M. Myers, +328 more
- 01 Apr 2011 - 
TL;DR: An overview of the project and the resources it is generating and the application of ENCODE data to interpret the human genome are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping copy number variation by population-scale genome sequencing

Ryan E. Mills, +374 more
- 03 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: A map of unbalanced SVs is constructed based on whole genome DNA sequencing data from 185 human genomes, integrating evidence from complementary SV discovery approaches with extensive experimental validations, and serves as a resource for sequencing-based association studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrative analysis of the Caenorhabditis elegans genome by the modENCODE project

Mark Gerstein, +130 more
- 24 Dec 2010 - 
TL;DR: These studies identified regions of the nematode and fly genomes that show highly occupied targets (or HOT) regions where DNA was bound by more than 15 of the transcription factors analyzed and the expression of related genes were characterized, providing insights into the organization, structure, and function of the two genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

What is a gene, post-ENCODE? History and updated definition

TL;DR: This definition side-steps the complexities of regulation and transcription by removing the former altogether from the definition and arguing that final, functional gene products (rather than intermediate transcripts) should be used to group together entities associated with a single gene.

A map of human genome variation from population-scale sequencing

Richard Durbin, +361 more
TL;DR: The pilot phase of the 1000 Genomes Project is presented, designed to develop and compare different strategies for genome-wide sequencing with high-throughput platforms, and the location, allele frequency and local haplotype structure of approximately 15 million single nucleotide polymorphisms, 1 million short insertions and deletions, and 20,000 structural variants are described.
