TL;DR: This study has demonstrated that careful use of a shared control group represents a safe and effective approach to GWA analyses of multiple disease phenotypes; generated a genome-wide genotype database for future studies of common diseases in the British population; and shown that, provided individuals with non-European ancestry are excluded, the extent of population stratification in theBritish population is generally modest.

TL;DR: The results of an international collaboration to produce a high-quality draft sequence of the mouse genome are reported and an initial comparative analysis of the Mouse and human genomes is presented, describing some of the insights that can be gleaned from the two sequences.

TL;DR: Pfam is now primarily based on the UniProtKB reference proteomes, with the counts of matched sequences and species reported on the website restricted to this smaller set, and the facility to view the relationship between families within a clan has been improved by the introduction of a new tool.

TL;DR: A significant comparison to the structural classification database that led to the creation of 825 new families based on their set of uncharacterized families (EUFs) was carried out and Pfam entries were connected to the Sequence Ontology (SO) through mapping of the Pfam type definitions to SO terms.

TL;DR: The latest improvements made to the frameworks which enhance the interconnectivity between public EMBL-EBI resources and ultimately enhance biological data discoverability, accessibility, interoperability and reusability are described.
