The human genome contracts again
UNLABELLED The number of human genomes that have been sequenced completely for different individuals has increased rapidly in recent years. Storing and transferring complete genomes between computers for the purpose of applying various applications and analysis tools will soon become a major hurdle, hindering the analysis phase. Therefore, there is a growing need to compress these data efficien...
متن کاملSupplementary material for The Human Genome Contracts Again
Genome compression has been the subject of multiple studies in the past several years. In general, studies in this field can be grouped into two main categories: reference-based compression and non-reference based compression. Methods which do not use reference genomes exploit the repetitive nature of genomic sequences, and compress the input data by using variations over general-purpose compre...
متن کاملThe cooperative genome: organisms as social contracts.
A predominant theme in much of evolutionary biology is that organisms are the product of relentless and precise natural selection among them, and that life is about the competition of all-against-all for success. However, developmental genetics has rapidly been revealing a very different picture of the nature of life. The organizing principles by which organisms are made are thoroughly based on...
متن کاملHuman cloning spectre rises again
Has a clone baby been born or hasn't it? Or is one on the way? If so, where? Unproven claims and counterclaims have left the world in a profound uncertainty. At the time of writing, neither the company Clonaid nor the fertility doctor Severino Antinori have produced evidence for the assertion that their cloning experiments have been successful. In theory, these claims would be easy to prove or ...
متن کاملidentification and discovery of novel micrornas in the human genome
although more than 98% of the human genome is transcribed, most of these transcripts are not translated into proteins. rather, they are considered as non-coding rnas. micrornas (mirnas) are very short non-coding rnas approximately 22 nucleotides in length which regulate many key processes of cells such as growth, proliferation, differentiation, cell cycle, apoptosis (programmed cell death) and ...
