	<title><![CDATA[CrossMap: a program for convenient conversion of genome coordinates]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[CrossMap is a program for convenient conversion of genome coordinates (or annotation files) between different assemblies (such as Human hg18 (NCBI36) &lt;&gt; hg19 (GRCh37), Mouse mm9 (MGSCv37) &lt;&gt; mm10 (GRCm38)).

It supports most commonly used file formats including SAM/BAM, Wiggle/BigWig, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF.

CrossMap is designed to liftover genome coordinates between assemblies. 

It’s not a program for aligning sequences to reference genome.

We do not recommend using CrossMap to convert genome coordinates between species.<p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://crossmap.sourceforge.net" rel="nofollow">http://crossmap.sourceforge.net</a></p>]]></description>

Students learn how to use computers and skills in math and biology to analyze genome and proteome projects to prepare for high-demand jobs in the life sciences. Learn more about Amin and hear from student Medina Baitemirova and alumnus Lukas Simon about the fast-growing field of bioinformatics.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Download and install MUMmer
Align your assembly to a reference genome using nucmer (from MUMmer package)
$ nucmer -maxmatch -l 100 -c 500 REFERENCE.fa ASSEMBLY.fa -prefix OUT
Consult the MUMmer manual if you encounter problems

Optional: Gzip the delta file to speed up upload (usually 2-4X faster)
$ gzip OUT.delta
Then use the OUT.delta.gz file for upload.
Upload the .delta or delta.gz file (view example) to Assemblytics
Important: Use only contigs rather than scaffolds from the assembly. This will prevent false positives when the number of Ns in the scaffolded sequence does not match perfectly to the distance in the reference.

The unique sequence length required represents an anchor for determining if a sequence is unique enough to safely call variants from, which is an alternative to the mapping quality filter for read alignment.

	<title><![CDATA[A comprehensive atlas of human gene activity released !!!]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<div><div id="postDescription_4018558404"><p>A large international consortium of researchers has produced the first comprehensive, detailed map of the way&nbsp;<a href="http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/topic/genetics/" target="_blank">genes</a>&nbsp;work across the major cells and tissues of the human body. The findings describe the complex networks that govern gene activity, and the new information could play a crucial role in identifying the genes involved with disease.</p><p><img src="http://www.kurzweilai.net/images/Coexpression-clustering.jpg" alt="image" width="640" height="460" style="border: 0px; border: 0px;"></p><p>We are able to pinpoint the regions of the genome that can be active in a disease and in normal activity, whether it&rsquo;s in a brain cell, the skin, in blood stem cells or in hair follicles. This is a major advance that will greatly increase our ability to understand the causes of disease across the body.</p><p>The research is outlined in a series of papers published March 27, 2014, two in the journal&nbsp;<em>Nature</em>&nbsp;and 16 in other scholarly journals. The work is the result of years of concerted effort among 250 experts from more than 20 countries as part of&nbsp;<a href="http://fantom.gsc.riken.jp/" target="_blank">FANTOM 5 (Functional Annotation of the Mammalian Genome)</a>. The FANTOM project, led by the Japanese institution RIKEN, is aimed at building a complete library of human genes.</p><p>Researchers studied human and mouse cells using a new technology called Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE), developed at RIKEN, to discover how 95% of all human genes are switched on and off. These &ldquo;switches&rdquo; &mdash; called &ldquo;promoters&rdquo; and &ldquo;enhancers&rdquo; &mdash; are the regions of DNA that manage gene activity. The researchers mapped the activity of 180,000 promoters and 44,000 enhancers across a wide range of human cell types and tissues and, in most cases, found they were linked with specific cell types.</p><p>Referene : www.kurzweilai.net/first-comprehensive-atlas-of-human-gene-activity-released</p></div></div>]]></description>
