Gains and unexpected lessons from genome-scale promoter mapping
Potential promoters in the genome of Escherichia coli were searched by pattern recognition software PlatProm and classified on the basis of positions relative to gene borders. Beside the expected promoters located in front of the coding sequences we found a considerable amount of intragenic promoter-like signals with a putative ability to drive either antisense or alternative transcription and ...
متن کاملThe Human Genome Project: lessons from large-scale biology.
Thinking big comes naturally to many biologists. Pursuing biological research on a monumental scale traditionally has not. Given the depth of that dichotomy, it is amazing that any established scientist would consider signing on to a biological research endeavor of the magnitude of the Human Genome Project (HGP), let alone agree to help steer the ship. Yet, each of us did. Now that biology’s fi...
متن کاملLessons from the CYP3A4 promoter.
There is considerable interest in determining the molecular basis for human variation in drug response. Investigations over the past 20 years have largely focused on identifying polymorphisms in genes that encode drug metabolism enzymes. Significant progress has been made for many of the cytochromes P450, including CYP2D6, CYP2C19, and CYP2C9 (http://www.imm.ki.se/CYPalleles/). However, the mol...
متن کاملLessons from the Cancer Genome
Systematic studies of the cancer genome have exploded in recent years. These studies have revealed scores of new cancer genes, including many in processes not previously known to be causal targets in cancer. The genes affect cell signaling, chromatin, and epigenomic regulation; RNA splicing; protein homeostasis; metabolism; and lineage maturation. Still, cancer genomics is in its infancy. Much ...
متن کاملLessons from Giant-Scale Services
W eb portals and ISPs such as AOL, Microsoft Network, and Yahoo have grown more than tenfold in the past five years. Despite their scale, growth rates, and rapid evolution of content and features, these sites and other “giant-scale” services like instant messaging and Napster must be always available. Many other major Web sites such as eBay, CNN, and Wal-Mart, have similar availability requirem...
