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 Neandertal genome and ancient DNA authenticity.

  PMID 19661919 · PMC2725275 · The EMBO journal · 2009 · 8 claims · 6 setups

• 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

  Full-text index only

  The ASPM gene shows accelerated (positively selected) evolution in the African hominoid clade, and this acceleration precedes hominid brain expansion by several million years.

• Automated recognition of retroviral sequences in genomic data--RetroTector.

  PMID 17636050 · PMC1976444 · Nucleic acids research · 2007 · 8 claims · 8 setups

  Full-text index only

  RetroTector uses 'fragment threading' (detection of chains of conserved retroviral motifs satisfying distance constraints) combined with LTR detection and protein reconstruction to identify ERVs in genomic sequences

  Full-text index only

  Long pure palindromes (>~200 bp) cannot be stably cloned in E.coli due to cruciform-driven instability, and no E.coli mutant fully overcomes this cloning block.
