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).

  OSLEM (Optimal Step Length EM), which approximates an optimal step length via a fixed-point search (D_N = D_{N-1} + λ(D_preN - D_{N-1})), runs about twice as fast as standard EM while producing the same haplotype frequency estimates.

• Allelic drop-out may occur with a primer binding site polymorphism for the commonly used RFLP assay for the -1131T>C polymorphism of the Apolipoprotein AV gene.

  A -987C>T polymorphism located 4bp from the 3' end of the MseI RFLP forward primer causes allelic drop-out, producing incorrect -1131T>C genotypes.
