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).

The role of positive selection in determining the molecular cause of species differences in disease.
PMID 18837980 · PMC2576240 · BMC evolutionary biology · 2008 · 8 claims · 6 setups
Genes predicted to be under positive selection during human evolution are implicated in diseases (epithelial cancers, schizophrenia, autoimmune diseases, Alzheimer's disease) that differ in prevalence and symptomatology between humans and other mammals

Genomic analysis of the TRIM family reveals two groups of genes with distinct evolutionary properties.
PMID 18673550 · PMC2533329 · BMC evolutionary biology · 2008 · 8 claims · 6 setups
The human TRIM family is split into two groups (group 1 and group 2) that differ in domain structure, genomic organization, and evolutionary properties.

Comparative genomics search for losses of long-established genes on the human lineage.
PMID 18085818 · PMC2134963 · PLoS computational biology · 2007 · 8 claims · 6 setups
A novel comparative genomics method (TransMap-based syntenic mapping of gene structures between human, mouse, and dog) can detect losses of well-established single-copy genes without relying on sequence homology to a parental gene, distinguishing them from typical duplication- or retrotransposition-derived pseudogenes.

Genomic analysis of a heterogeneous Mendelian phenotype: multiple novel alleles for inherited hearing loss in the Palestinian population.
PMID 16460646 · PMC3525152 · Human genomics · 2006 · 8 claims · 8 setups
GJB2 (connexin 26) mutations account for hearing loss in only 17 of 156 families (11%), a smaller fraction than reported in other populations.

Expansion of the Bactericidal/Permeability Increasing-like (BPI-like) protein locus in cattle.
PMID 17362520 · PMC1839098 · BMC genomics · 2007 · 8 claims · 8 setups
The bovine BPI-like locus spans 470 kbp and contains 14 contiguous genes (13 intact + 1 pseudogene); 9 are orthologous to human/mouse BPI-like genes and 4 (named BSP30A, BSP30B, BSP30C, BSP30D) arose through cattle-specific duplication of the PSP gene
