Experiments
Searchable full-text extractions: founding hypothesis, core claims, experimental setups, key results and statistics — pulled out of each paper as structure. Search a cell line, an assay or an entity (e.g. HUH7) and find every paper that worked with it. This corpus stands on its own: most entries carry no reproduction assessment (yet).

Gene loss rate: a probabilistic measure for the conservation of eukaryotic genes.
PMID 17158152 · PMC1802574 · Nucleic acids research · 2007 · 8 claims · 8 setups
GLR is a novel maximum-likelihood measure of gene loss rate that probabilistically weighs all possible ancestral phyletic patterns rather than relying on a single parsimonious reconstruction.

Testing whether genetic variation explains correlation of quantitative measures of gene expression, and application to genetic network analysis.
PMID 18444230 · PMC2729096 · Statistics in medicine · 2008 · 8 claims · 3 setups
A statistical test (delta method and Steiger-Browne optimal linear composites) is developed to test equality of the marginal correlation and the partial correlation of two gene expression traits conditional on a set of covariates.

Discordance of species trees with their most likely gene trees.
PMID 16733550 · PMC1464820 · PLoS genetics · 2006 · 7 claims · 2 setups
For any species tree topology with n ≥ 5 taxa, there exist branch lengths for which the most likely gene tree topology (an 'anomalous gene tree') differs from the species tree topology.

A universal mechanism ties genotype to phenotype in trinucleotide diseases.
PMID 18039028 · PMC2082501 · PLoS computational biology · 2007 · 8 claims · 5 setups
A universal mechanism of somatic, length-dependent trinucleotide repeat expansion toward a disease-specific pathological threshold explains genotype-phenotype correlations common to trinucleotide diseases

Threshold-dominated regulation hides genetic variation in gene expression networks.
PMID 18062810 · PMC2238762 · BMC systems biology · 2007 · 8 claims · 2 setups
Threshold robustness (insensitivity of a singular/regulating variable's equilibrium value to parameter perturbations, except threshold changes) increases with increasing response function steepness and is present even under Michaelis-Menten conditions, not just in the step-function limit.

The scientific impact of the Structural Genomics Consortium: a protein family and ligand-centered approach to medically-relevant human proteins.
PMID 17932789 · PMC2140095 · Journal of structural and functional genomics · 2007 · 8 claims · 6 setups
A family-based target selection approach (rather than genome-wide or fold-novelty based selection) maximizes cross-member methodological transfer and biological insight

Sex-biased evolutionary forces shape genomic patterns of human diversity.
PMID 18818765 · PMC2538571 · PLoS genetics · 2008 · 7 claims · 5 setups
X-linked diversity is higher than the neutral expectation (0.75) relative to autosomal diversity in all six sampled human populations

L2L: a simple tool for discovering the hidden significance in microarray expression data.
PMID 16168088 · PMC1242216 · Genome biology · 2005 · 8 claims · 4 setups
L2L systematically compares a user's differentially expressed gene list against a database of published differentially expressed gene lists to find statistically significant overlaps and generate hypotheses about shared mechanisms

Proteomic approaches to cancer biomarkers.
PMID 19931265 · PMC2873613 · Gastroenterology · 2010 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Combining abundant-protein depletion, offline fractionation, and subproteome (e.g., glycoproteome) enrichment with 2D LC-MS/MS increases the dynamic range and depth of blood proteome analysis for biomarker discovery.
