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).

Decoding of superimposed traces produced by direct sequencing of heterozygous indels.
PMID 18654614 · PMC2429969 · PLoS computational biology · 2008 · 7 claims · 3 setups
A dynamic programming method (implemented as web app Indelligent) can decode superimposed allelic sequences from a single mixed trace, using only the observed string of ambiguous peak calls, without a reference sequence or reverse trace.

Inter-individual variation of DNA methylation and its implications for large-scale epigenome mapping.
PMID 18413340 · PMC2425484 · Nucleic acids research · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
CpG-rich regions (CpG islands) show low and similar methylation levels across individuals, but the sequential order of the few methylated CpGs among the many unmethylated ones varies randomly between individuals.

An intergenic non-coding rRNA correlated with expression of the rRNA and frequency of an rRNA single nucleotide polymorphism in lung cancer cells.
PMID 19838300 · PMC2759515 · PloS one · 2009 · 8 claims · 7 setups
An nc-rRNA is transcribed from the intergenic spacer upstream of the rRNA transcription start site in human lung epithelial and lung cancer cells, spanning roughly -1000 to at least +203/+300.

Detecting natural selection by empirical comparison to random regions of the genome.
PMID 19783549 · PMC2778377 · Human molecular genetics · 2009 · 8 claims · 5 setups
Comparing candidate loci to empirically matched random genomic regions (ENCODE data) avoids the strong demographic/mutation assumptions required by theoretical neutral models and provides a robust test for selection

Sequence polymorphisms cause many false cis eQTLs.
PMID 17637838 · PMC1906859 · PloS one · 2007 · 8 claims · 7 setups
