TL;DR: An integrated approach to build, test, and refine a model of a cellular pathway, in which perturbations to critical pathway components are analyzed using DNA microarrays, quantitative proteomics, and databases of known physical interactions, suggests hypotheses about the regulation of galactose utilization and physical interactions between this and a variety of other metabolic pathways.

TL;DR: NanoString nCounter as mentioned in this paper is a system for gene expression measurement with high multiplex capability and digital readout, which can detect individual mRNA transcripts without enzymatic reactions or bias.

TL;DR: It is shown that a relatively recent (>50 million years ago) genome-wide duplication has resulted in the transition from nine ancestral chromosomes to 17 chromosomes in the Pyreae, which partly support the monophyly of the ancestral paleohexaploidy of eudicots.

TL;DR: The genome sequence of an Indian-origin Macaca mulatta female is determined and compared with chimpanzees and humans to reveal the structure of ancestral primate genomes and to identify evidence for positive selection and lineage-specific expansions and contractions of gene families.

TL;DR: DNA microarrays show that gene expression in biofilm cells is similar to that in free-living cells but there are a small number of significant differences, which points to mechanisms of biofilm resistance to antibiotics.
