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).

  Full-text index only

  CGB1 and CGB2 arose via insertion of a DNA fragment (736/724 bp) replacing part of the ancestral hCGβ promoter and 5'-UTR, creating a novel exon 1 and causing a frameshift that produces a completely different 132-aa protein unrelated to hCGβ
