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).

A novel breast cancer-associated BRIP1 (FANCJ/BACH1) germ-line mutation impairs protein stability and function.
PMID 18628483 · PMC2561321 · Clinical cancer research : an official journal of the American Association for Cancer Research · 2008 · 6 claims · 7 setups
A novel heterozygous BRIP1 germline mutation (c.2992-2995delAAGA) was identified in a breast cancer patient, causing a frameshift and premature stop codon in exon 20.

The role of MYH and microsatellite instability in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer.
PMID 17031395 · PMC2360566 · British journal of cancer · 2006 · 8 claims · 8 setups
MYH-associated colorectal cancers can develop through either a chromosomal instability pathway or a microsatellite instability (MSI) pathway, contradicting the assumption that these are mutually exclusive.

Constitutional genetic variation at the human aromatase gene (Cyp19) and breast cancer risk.
PMID 10027313 · PMC2362434 · British journal of cancer · 1999 · 7 claims · 5 setups
Allelic distribution of the Cyp19 intron 4 STRP differs significantly between breast cancer cases and controls

Quality control method for RNA-seq using single nucleotide polymorphism allele frequency.
PMID 25243705 · PMC4231238 · Genes to cells : devoted to molecular & cellular mechanisms · 2014 · 8 claims · 8 setups
SNP allele frequency distributions from RNA-seq reads can detect contaminating cells whose genomic background differs from the target cells; the mode of the distribution reflects the cellular composition while its variance reflects PCR bias.

Epidemiology of doublet/multiplet mutations in lung cancers: evidence that a subset arises by chronocoordinate events.
PMID 19005564 · PMC2579325 · PloS one · 2008 · 8 claims · 7 setups
Doublet mutations are significantly more frequent in EGFR (6.0%) and TP53 (2.3%) in human lung cancer than spontaneous doublets in mouse lacI (0.7%), about 8-fold and 3-fold higher respectively.

A Hidden Markov Model to estimate population mixture and allelic copy-numbers in cancers using Affymetrix SNP arrays.
PMID 17996079 · PMC2206057 · BMC bioinformatics · 2007 · 8 claims · 7 setups
An HMM using paired germline genotype calls and tumour allelic SNP intensities can estimate allele-specific copy-numbers, distinguishing events like uniparental disomy from allelic imbalance.
