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).

Speeding disease gene discovery by sequence based candidate prioritization.
PMID 15766383 · PMC1274252 · BMC bioinformatics · 2005 · 7 claims · 8 setups
Disease genes (OMIM) differ significantly from non-disease genes in sequence-based features including gene/cDNA/protein size, exon number, homolog conservation, secretion signal, 3' UTR length, CpG islands, and distance to nearest gene.
