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 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

• A third approach to gene prediction suggests thousands of additional human transcribed regions.

  A third basic concept for gene prediction exists, based on detecting strand-specific 'transcription footprints' (mutational and selectional biases) rather than gene structure or sequence similarity.

  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.

  Integrating 16 genomic features (32 sub-features) via a naïve Bayes classifier produces a genome-scale FLN of 21,657 human genes and 22,388,609 weighted links that outperforms any individual data source for inferring functional linkages.
