<p>The Roth Lab seeks insight into biological systems through genome- and proteome-scale experimentation and analysis.</p>

<p>Current computational interests:</p>

<p>Systematic analysis of genetic epistasis to identify redundant or compensatory systems and to reveal order of action in genetic pathways.<br />Using knockout, knockdown, or overexpression, or other perturbation experiments in combinations of genes in S. cerevisiae, C. elegans or mouse.<br />Using genome-scale genotyping of natural polymorphisms in S. cerevisiae and human populations.<br />Alternative splicing and its relationship to protein interaction networks.<br />Integrating large-scale studies including phenotype, genetic epistasis, protein-protein and transcription-regulatory interactions and sequence patterns to quantitatively assign function to genes and guide experimentation.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>MeDuSa (Multi-Draft based Scaffolder), an algorithm for genome scaffolding. MeDuSa exploits information obtained from a set of (draft or closed) genomes from related organisms to determine the correct order and orientation of the contigs. MeDuSa formalises the scaffolding problem by means of a combinatorial optimisation formulation on graphs and implements an efficient constant factor approximation algorithm to solve it. In contrast to currently used scaffolders, it does not require either prior knowledge on the microrganisms dataset under analysis (e.g. their phylogenetic relationships) or the availability of paired end read libraries.&nbsp;</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/combogenomics/medusa" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/combogenomics/medusa</a></p>]]></description>
