P-215: Discovery of A Novel APA Variant of A Human Potential Gene Based on Expressed Sequenced Tags Analysis

Background: Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are sequences of cDNA fragments prepared from different tissue sources. There are over one million of these sequences in the publicly available database, and these sequences are believed to represent more than half of all human genes. The ESTs belong to different cDNA libraries, was prepared from one particular cell type, organ, or tumor. Therefore, th...

Chromosomal localization and expressed sequence tag generation of clones from a normalized human adult thymus cDNA library.

Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from 298 clones have been generated from a randomly primed, normalized human adult thymus cDNA library. We describe the chromosomal localization of 136 of these ESTs by PCR-based mapping to a human monochromosomal somatic cell hybrid panel. Data base similarities to known genes are also described. A subset (n = 18) of these randomly primed ESTs extended the sequen...

Characterization of open reading frame-expressed sequence tags generated from Bos indicus and B. taurus mammary gland cDNA libraries.

Sequence-based gene expression data are used to interpret results from functional genomic and proteomics studies. Although more than 300 000 bovine-expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are available in public databases, a more thorough and directed sampling of the expressed genome is needed to identify new transcripts and improve assembly and annotation of existing transcript sequences. Accordingly, ...

Whole-Genome Amplification by Degenerate Oligonucleotide Primed PCR (DOP-PCR).

INTRODUCTIONPCR-based whole-genome amplification (WGA) has the goal of generating microgram quantities of genome-representative DNA from picogram or nanogram amounts of starting material. This amplification should introduce little, or ideally no, representational bias. Unlike other techniques for WGA, PCR-based methods are generally less affected by DNA quality and are more applicable to DNA ex...

Expressed Sequence Tags

Now a days, genome analysis has employed a rapid analysis tool known as expressed sequence tags. In 1983, SD Putney for the first time demonstrated the use of cDNA in identification of genome. The term expressed sequence tags (ESTs) was coined by Anthony Kerlavage at the Institute for Genomic Research. In 1991, Mark Adams used EST in relation to gene discovery and Human Genome project. cDNA or ...
