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 whole alignment and nothing but the alignment: the problem of spurious alignment flanks.

• 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.
