Mining the draft human genome [PDF]
Now that the draft human genome sequence is available, everyone wants to be able to use it. However, we have perhaps become complacent about our ability to turn new genomes into lists of genes. The higher volume of data associated with a larger genome is accompanied by a much greater increase in complexity.

Genome Mining as New Challenge in Natural Products Discovery
Drug discovery is based on bioactivity screening of natural sources, traditionally represented by bacteria fungi and plants. Bioactive natural products and their secondary metabolites have represented the main source for new therapeutic agents, used as ...

Underexplored bacteria as reservoirs of novel antimicrobial lipopeptides
Natural products derived from microorganisms play a prominent role in drug discovery as potential anti-infective agents. Over the past few decades, lipopeptides produced by particularly Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Streptomyces, Paenibacillus, and ...

Mining for viral fragments in methylation enriched sequencing data [PDF]
Most next generation sequencing experiments generate more data than is required for the experimental set up. For example, methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) affinity purification based sequencing is often used for DNA-methylation profiling, but up to 30% of

Reference Based Genome Compression [PDF]
DNA sequencing technology has advanced to a point where storage is becoming the central bottleneck in the acquisition and mining of more data. Large amounts of data are vital for genomics research, and generic compression tools, while viable, cannot ...
