Base resolution maps reveal the importance of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in a human glioblastoma.

TL;DR: It is observed that cells neighbouring tumour cells display epigenetic alterations characteristic of the tumour itself although genetically they appear “normal”, showing the potential transfer of epigenetic information between cells that contributes to the intratumour heterogeneity of glioblastoma.

Swine genome sequencing consortium (SGSC) : a strategic roadmap for sequencing the pig genome : Comparative and Functional Genomics

TL;DR: The Swine Genome Sequencing Consortium (SGSC) was formed in 2003 by academic, government and industry representatives to provide international coordination for sequencing the pig genome as discussed by the authors, which has achieved significant progress towards the creation of a minimal tiling path (MTP).
Journal ArticleDOI

An integrated YAC map of the human X chromosome.

TL;DR: A YAC contig map of the X chromosome covering 125 Mb of DNA in 25 contigs and containing 906 YAC clones is constructed, which exceeds the coverage of recently reported X chromosome maps built as part of whole-genome YAC maps.
