Errors in microbial genome sequences are not restricted to point mutations and may also consist of large-scale rearrangements, such as insertions, which should be rectified so that these data can be of continuing use.
PubMed abstracts can now be effectively screened for articles related to human genetic association studies and genome epidemiology using GAPscreener, a free java-based tool.
The Stenotrophomonas maltophilia genome Crossman LC, Gould VC, Dow JM, Vernikos GS, Okazaki A, Sebaihia M, Saunders D, Arrowsmith C, Carver T, Peters N, et al. / 17 April 2008
The complete Stenotrophomonas maltophilia genome sequence suggests that it can act as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance determinants.
The AAA+ superfamily is a large superfamily of ATPases that are characterized by a conserved catalytic module, the AAA+ module. Members are involved in an astonishing range of different cellular processes.
The Podospora anserina genome sequence Espagne E, Lespinet O, Malagnac F, Da Silva C, Jaillon O, Porcel BM, Couloux A, Aury JM, Ségurens B, Poulain J, et al. / 06 May 2008
A 10X draft sequence of Podospora anserina genome shows highly dynamic evolution since its divergence from Neurospora crassa.
A large-scale survey using single nucleotide polymorphism data from dbSNP provides insights into the evolutionary selection constraints on human proteins of different structural and functional categories.
Transcript and metabolite abundance changes were analyzed in evolved and ancestor strains of Escherichia coli in three different evolutionary conditions
A new system based on non-conventional secretion of the luciferase from Gaussia princeps (GLUC) can be used to detect intracellular proteolysis in vivo.
