Abstract: 
The human genome holds an extraordinary trove of information about human development, physiology, medicine and evolution. Here we report the results of an international collaboration to produce and make freely available a draft sequence of the human genome. We also present an initial analysis of the data, describing some of the insights that can be gleaned from the sequence.

Knowledge Discovery in Multi-label Phenotype Data

Amanda Clare, +1 more
TL;DR: This work uses KDD to analyse data from mutant phenotype growth experiments with the yeast S. cerevisiae to predict novel gene functions, and learns rules which are accurate and biologically meaningful.

Methods of Modifying Eukaryotic Cells

Andrew J. Murphy, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method for replacing an endogenous immunoglobulin gene locus of the variable region as a whole against a orthologous human locus, or partially by replacement of one or more V and J, or V, D and J gene segments thereof, was proposed.

Direct determination of diploid genome sequences

Neil I. Weisenfeld, +4 more
- 05 Apr 2017 - 
TL;DR: This work demonstrates a straightforward and low-cost method for creating true diploid de novo assemblies, and provides a scalable capability for determining the actual diploids genome sequence in a sample, opening the door to new approaches in genomic biology and medicine.

A recent polyploidy superimposed on older large-scale duplications in the Arabidopsis genome.

Guillaume Blanc, +2 more
- 01 Feb 2003 - 
TL;DR: It is concluded that the Arabidopsis lineage underwent at least two distinct episodes of duplication, one of which was a polyploidy that occurred much more recently than estimated previously and probably during the early emergence of the crucifer family.

Fast and reliable prediction of noncoding RNAs

Stefan Washietl, +2 more
- 15 Feb 2005 - 
TL;DR: All of the known noncoding RNAs and cis-acting elements with high significance are recovered and compelling evidence for many other conserved RNA secondary structures not described so far to the authors' knowledge is found.

Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: a new generation of protein database search programs.

Stephen F. Altschul, +6 more
- 01 Sep 1997 - 
TL;DR: A new criterion for triggering the extension of word hits, combined with a new heuristic for generating gapped alignments, yields a gapped BLAST program that runs at approximately three times the speed of the original.

The Pfam protein families database

Marco Punta, +15 more
- 01 Jan 2000 - 
TL;DR: The definition and use of family-specific, manually curated gathering thresholds are explained and some of the features of domains of unknown function (also known as DUFs) are discussed, which constitute a rapidly growing class of families within Pfam.

The sequence of the human genome.

J. Craig Venter, +272 more
- 16 Feb 2001 - 
TL;DR: Comparative genomic analysis indicates vertebrate expansions of genes associated with neuronal function, with tissue-specific developmental regulation, and with the hemostasis and immune systems are indicated.

Identification of common molecular subsequences.

Temple F. Smith, +1 more
- 25 Mar 1981 - 
TL;DR: This letter extends the heuristic homology algorithm of Needleman & Wunsch (1970) to find a pair of segments, one from each of two long sequences, such that there is no other Pair of segments with greater similarity (homology).

Sequence and organization of the human mitochondrial genome

Stephen Anderson, +17 more
TL;DR: The complete sequence of the 16,569-base pair human mitochondrial genome is presented and shows extreme economy in that the genes have none or only a few noncoding bases between them, and in many cases the termination codons are not coded in the DNA but are created post-transcriptionally by polyadenylation of the mRNAs.
