Should you get sequenced? Not all bad genes predict disease
“What we really don’t know yet is whether the predictive aspects of the genome are going to turn out to be beneficial or potentially harmful” “As we roll out genomic medicine we are fighting against this society-wide misconception that having the bad gene means you’...Tags: Sequencing, health, medicine, genes, disease

Ancestral Genomes: a resource for reconstructed ancestral genes and genomes across the tree of life
Ancestral Genomes (http://ancestralgenomes.org) is a resource for comprehensive reconstructions of these ‘fossil genomes’. Comprehensive sets of protein-coding genes have been reconstructed for 78 genomes of now-extinct species that were the common ancestors of extant species fr...Tags: Ancestral, Genomes, resource, reconstructed, genes, genomes, across, tree, life

FGENESH - Program for predicting multiple genes in genomic DNA sequences
FGENESH is the fastest (50-100 times faster than GenScan) and most accurate gene finder available - see the figure and the table below. In recent rice genome sequencing projects, it was cited "the most successful (gene finding) program (Yu et al. (2002) Science 296:79) and was used to produc...Tags: FGENESH, Program, predicting, multiple, genes, genomic, DNA, sequences

DEG 5.0: a database of essential genes in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Essential genes are those indispensable for the survival of an organism, and their functions are therefore considered a foundation of life. Determination of a minimal gene set needed to sustain a life form, a fundamental question in biology, plays a key role in the emerging field, synthetic biolo...Tags: DEG, database, essential, genes, prokaryotes, eukaryotes
