Journal ArticleDOI

The External RNA Controls Consortium: a progress report.

TL;DR: The External RNA Controls Consortium (ERCC) is developing commonly agreed-upon and tested controls for use in expression assays, a true industry-wide standard control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rheumatoid Arthritis subtypes identified by genomic profiling of peripheral blood cells: Assignment of a type I interferon signature in a subpopulation of patients

TL;DR: The IFN type I signature defines a subgroup of patients with RA, with a distinct biomolecular phenotype, characterised by increased activity of the innate defence system, coagulation and complement cascades, and fatty acid metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

The essential genome of a bacterium.

TL;DR: Using hyper‐saturated transposon mutagenesis coupled with high‐throughput sequencing, the essential Caulobacter genome is determined at 8 bp resolution, including 1012 essential genome features: 480 ORFs, 402 regulatory sequences and 130 non‐coding elements, including 90 intergenic segments of unknown function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene expression patterns in renal cell carcinoma assessed by complementary DNA microarray.

TL;DR: Characterization of renal cell carcinomas based on gene expression patterns provides a revised classification of these tumors and has the potential to supply significant biological and clinical insights.
