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).

Coverage and characteristics of the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Mapping 100K SNP set.
PMID 16680197 · PMC1456318 · PLoS genetics · 2006 · 7 claims · 7 setups
SNPs in the Affymetrix 100K set are undersampled from coding regions (both synonymous and nonsynonymous) and oversampled from regions outside genes, relative to HapMap SNPs

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.

Distinctive pattern of sequence polymorphism in the NS3 protein of hepatitis C virus type 1b reflects conflicting evolutionary pressures.
PMID 18632963 · PMC2577380 · The Journal of general virology · 2008 · 7 claims · 6 setups
NS3 shows less evidence of purifying selection acting on its CTL epitopes than the other 9 HCV proteins, while outside the CTL epitopes NS3 is more conserved than the other proteins.

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.

Identification and characterization of insect-specific proteins by genome data analysis.
PMID 17407609 · PMC1852559 · BMC genomics · 2007 · 8 claims · 7 setups
Comparative genome analysis across five holometabolous insects and three non-insect eukaryotes (opisthokonts) identifies 154 insect-specific orthologous groups (refined to 51 proteins) and 466 eukaryote/opisthokont-core orthologous groups
