Featured articles
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :219
Rapid sequencing of the transcribed genes of coral larvae is made possible by the use of adapted next-generation sequencing methods, revealing around 11,000 expressed genes and candidate genes for the response to temperature stress.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :189
Genes arranged head-to-head and sharing a common bi-directional promoter region display a conserved intergenic architecture in cows, humans and other mammals, which will help to identify regulatory regions and unrecognized genes in other mammals’ genomes.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :180
The assembly of the bovine genome used both bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) and whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequences, exploiting the strengths of each to provide a more accurate and comprehensive coverage of the genome.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :151
The norepinephrine transporter (NET) is a cocaine and antidepressant target and knockout mice show altered expression of genes in signaling pathways related to neural crest formation and noradrenergic cell differentiation during embryonic development.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :130
In a yeast model of growth under iron-limited conditions, the role of genes for intracellular trafficking and the peroxisome is determined by combining deletion mutants and expression profiling, which reveal separate metabolic pathway components.
