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).

Positive natural selection in the evolution of human metapneumovirus attachment glycoprotein.
PMID 17931731 · PMC7114232 · Virus research · 2008 · 7 claims · 5 setups
8 amino acid sites in the extracellular domain of hMPV lineage 1a show a higher rate of nonsynonymous than synonymous substitutions (posterior probability >0.95), indicating positive selection.

Adaptation to different human populations by HIV-1 revealed by codon-based analyses.
PMID 16789820 · PMC1480537 · PLoS computational biology · 2006 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Developed two fixed effects maximum likelihood methods: one to detect selection that persists in a population (internal vs. terminal branches) and one to detect differential selection on codons between two populations.

Synonymous substitution rates predict HIV disease progression as a result of underlying replication dynamics.
PMID 17305421 · PMC1797821 · PLoS computational biology · 2007 · 8 claims · 8 setups
The synonymous substitution rate (dS) of HIV env is strongly correlated with disease progression parameters (progression time, CD4+ decline rate, viral load increase rate), unlike the nonsynonymous rate (dN).

Genomewide pattern of synonymous nucleotide substitution in two complete genomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
PMID 12453367 · PMC2738538 · Emerging infectious diseases · 2002 · 8 claims · 6 setups

Distribution and effects of nonsense polymorphisms in human genes.
PMID 18852891 · PMC2561068 · PloS one · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Nonsense SNPs occur at a lower density than nonsynonymous SNPs, indicating stronger purifying selection against premature stop codons than amino acid changes.

Accelerated evolution of the ASPM gene controlling brain size begins prior to human brain expansion.
PMID 15045028 · PMC374243 · PLoS biology · 2004 · 8 claims · 6 setups
The ASPM gene shows accelerated (positively selected) evolution in the African hominoid clade, and this acceleration precedes hominid brain expansion by several million years.

Design and analysis issues in genome-wide somatic mutation studies of cancer.
PMID 18692126 · PMC2820387 · Genomics · 2009 · 6 claims · 4 setups
Two-stage (discovery + validation) sequencing designs efficiently allocate resources and can produce highly informative candidate driver gene lists even with relatively small sample sizes.

Evolutionary history of the UCP gene family: gene duplication and selection.
PMID 18980678 · PMC2584656 · BMC evolutionary biology · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
The UCP gene family arose through two ancestral gene duplications early in vertebrate evolution, producing the UCP1, UCP2 and UCP3 lineages.
