Comparing vertebrate whole-genome shotgun reads to the human genome.
Multi-species sequence comparisons are a very efficient way to reveal conserved genes. Because sequence finishing is expensive and time consuming, many genome sequences are likely to stay incomplete. A challenge is to use these fragmented data for understanding the human genome. Methods for using cross-species whole-genome shotgun sequence (WGS) for genome annotation are described in this paper...
متن کاملHuman whole-genome shotgun sequencing.
Large-scale sequencing of the human genome is now under way (Boguski et al. 1996; Marshall and Pennisi 1996). Although at the beginning of the Genome Project, many doubted the scientific value of sequencing the entire human genome, these doubts have evaporated almost entirely (Gibbs 1995; Olson 1995). Primary reasons for generating the human genomic sequence are listed in Table 1. The approach ...
متن کاملAb Initio Whole Genome Shotgun Assembly with Mated Short Reads
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies are capable of reading millions of short DNA sequences both quickly and cheaply. While these technologies are already being used for resequencing individuals once a reference genome exists, it has not been shown if it is possible to use them for ab initio genome assembly. In this paper, we give a novel network flow-based algorithm that, by taking ad...
متن کاملLeveraging the mouse genome for gene prediction in human: from whole-genome shotgun reads to a global synteny map.
The availability of draft sequences for both the mouse and human genomes makes it possible, for the first time, to annotate whole mammalian genomes using comparative methods. TWINSCAN is a gene-prediction system that combines the methods of single-genome predictors like GENSCAN with information derived from genome comparison, thereby improving accuracy. Because TWINSCAN uses genomic sequence on...
متن کاملWhole Genome Shotgun
The motivation for sequencing genomes is rather direct. According to the central dogma of biology, elements of the genome are translated via several mechanisms into the structure and function of organisms. But in order to study genomes, we must first sequence them. Whole Genome Shotgun (WGS) is a successful method for sequencing genomes. This lecture we will discuss how WGS works, some of the c...
