TLDR
The goal of the Gene Ontology Consortium is to produce a dynamic, controlled vocabulary that can be applied to all eukaryotes even as knowledge of gene and protein roles in cells is accumulating and changing.Abstract:
Genomic sequencing has made it clear that a large fraction of the genes specifying the core biological functions are shared by all eukaryotes. Knowledge of the biological role of such shared proteins in one organism can often be transferred to other organisms. The goal of the Gene Ontology Consortium is to produce a dynamic, controlled vocabulary that can be applied to all eukaryotes even as knowledge of gene and protein roles in cells is accumulating and changing. To this end, three independent ontologies accessible on the World-Wide Web (http://www.geneontology.org) are being constructed: biological process, molecular function and cellular component.read more

Natural history and evolutionary principles of gene duplication in fungi
TL;DR: This work develops a procedure that resolves the evolutionary history of all genes in a large group of species and applies it to seventeen fungal genomes to create a genome-wide catalogue of gene trees that determine precise orthology and paralogy relations across these species.

TL;DR: Positively selected and rapidly evolving genes in the yak lineage are found to be significantly enriched in functional categories and pathways related to hypoxia and nutrition metabolism, which may have important implications for understanding adaptation to high altitude in other animal species and for Hypoxia-related diseases in humans.

TL;DR: Weight loss improves the inflammatory profile of obese subjects through a decrease of proinflammatory factors and an increase of anti‐inflammatory molecules and the beneficial effect of weight loss on obesity‐related complications may be associated with the modification of theinflammatory profile in adipose tissue.

Cluster analysis and display of genome-wide expression patterns
TL;DR: A system of cluster analysis for genome-wide expression data from DNA microarray hybridization is described that uses standard statistical algorithms to arrange genes according to similarity in pattern of gene expression, finding in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that clustering gene expression data groups together efficiently genes of known similar function.
