New genomics analysis software developed by computer scientists at Stanford appears far more adept than prior methods at unraveling the ancestry of individuals.

 | The evolution of new genes is not the only way for a species to change. The loss of genes may also lead to adaptations that help species survive, but this idea has not been well studied. Now, scientists at the University of California, Santa Cruz, have carried out the first systematic computational analysis to identify long-established genes that were lost during the millions of years of evolution leading to the human species. Their findings appear in the December 14 issue of PLoS Computational Biology. ...> Full Article |
ArrayExpress, the publicly available database of transcriptomics data at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory's European Bioinformatics Institute [EMBL-EBI], has doubled in size in 2007, reaching the 100,000-hybridisation milestone. The database now holds snapshots of gene expression [identifying which genes are specifically expressed in a particular tissue or in response to a drug, for example] for more than 180 species under thousands of experimental conditions.
