This paper examines the model of network genomics pioneered in late 1980s and adopted European Commission-led Yeast Genome Sequencing Project (YGSP). It contrasted with burgeoning large-scale center being developed United States to sequence yeast genome, chiefly as a pilot for tackling human genome. We investigate operation connections two models by exploring co-authorship that captures differe...

Sequencing of RNA has been an important application of DNA sequencing technology since its invention. RNA is usually sequenced by first converting it to complementary DNA (cDNA) with the reverse transcriptase enzyme (RNA-dependent DNA polymerase). Reverse transcriptase was originally isolated from Rous sarcoma retrovirus and Rauscher mouse leukemia retrovirus (R-MLV) by Baltimore (1970) and ind...

Introduction Next-generation DNA sequencing empowers scientists to identify genetic variations associated with human disease at higher resolution and greater sensitivity than previously possible. Two approaches are commonly employed -exome sequencing and whole genome sequencing. Exome sequencing targets protein-coding regions comprising approximately 1% of the human genome, while whole genome s...

RNA-sequencing is a new method of transcriptome characterization of organisms. Based on identity and relatedness, there are large genetic variations among different cattle breeds. The goal of the current study was to sequence the transcriptome of Guilan native cow and compare with available reference genome using RNA-sequencing method. Blood samples were collected from 14 Guilan native cows and...
