Current Challenges in Bacterial Transcriptomics
Over the past decade or so, dramatic developments in our ability to experimentally determine the content and function of genomes have taken place. In particular, next-generation sequencing technologies are now inspiring a new understanding of bacterial transcriptomes on a global scale. In bacterial cells, whole-transcriptome studies have not received attention, owing to the general view that ba...
متن کاملPhrase Detectives
In this Chapter we discuss Phrase Detectives, a Game-With-A-Purpose (GWAP) for anaphoric annotation that has been one of the first GWAPs for corpus annotation and one of the most successful. We discuss the architecture of the game, evaluate its results in terms of quantity and quality of data, and explain how the data were used to create a publically available corpus that can be used to study a...
متن کاملA Functional Gene Array for Detection of Bacterial Virulence Elements
Emerging known and unknown pathogens create profound threats to public health. Platforms for rapid detection and characterization of microbial agents are critically needed to prevent and respond to disease outbreaks. Available detection technologies cannot provide broad functional information about known or novel organisms. As a step toward developing such a system, we have produced and tested ...
متن کاملFunctional transcriptomics in the post-ENCODE era.
The last decade has seen tremendous effort committed to the annotation of the human genome sequence, most notably perhaps in the form of the ENCODE project. One of the major findings of ENCODE, and other genome analysis projects, is that the human transcriptome is far larger and more complex than previously thought. This complexity manifests, for example, as alternative splicing within protein-...
متن کاملInnovations. DNA detectives.
To understand the many potential causes and resulting consequences of DNA damage, scientists first need methods to detect it. Canadian scientists X. Chris Le and Michael Weinfeld, with help from U.S. molecular biologist Steven Leadon, developed a selective, sensitive technique for measuring DNA damage. The scientists combined a thymine glycol antibody with thymine glycol to selectively tag a sp...
