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).

Genome-wide scans for loci under selection in humans.
PMID 16004726 · PMC3525256 · Human genomics · 2005 · 8 claims · 4 setups
Natural selection and population demographic history both distort patterns of genetic variation relative to the standard neutral model, so single-locus tests cannot unambiguously distinguish selection from demography.

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

The evolution and genomic landscape of CGB1 and CGB2 genes.
PMID 17055150 · PMC2599907 · Molecular and cellular endocrinology · 2007 · 8 claims · 5 setups
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
