The ENCODE (ENCyclopedia of DNA elements) Project

Elise A. Feingold, +196 more
- 22 Oct 2004 - 
TL;DR: The ENCyclopedia Of DNA Elements (ENCODE) Project is organized as an international consortium of computational and laboratory-based scientists working to develop and apply high-throughput approaches for detecting all sequence elements that confer biological function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic Maps and Comparative Analysis of Histone Modifications in Human and Mouse

TL;DR: Methylation patterns at orthologous loci are strongly conserved between human and mouse even though many methylated sites do not show sequence conservation notably higher than background, which suggests that the DNA elements that direct the methylation represent only a small fraction of the region or lie at some distance from the site.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide analysis of estrogen receptor binding sites

TL;DR: All estrogen receptor and RNA polymerase II binding sites are mapped on a genome-wide scale, identifying the authentic cis binding sites and target genes, in breast cancer cells, and distinct temporal mechanisms of estrogen-mediated gene regulation are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptional maps of 10 human chromosomes at 5-nucleotide resolution

TL;DR: The transcribed portions of the human genome are predominantly composed of interlaced networks of both poly A+ and poly A– annotated transcripts and unannotated transcripts of unknown function, which has important implications for interpreting genotype-phenotype associations, regulation of gene expression, and the definition of a gene.
