Curated genome annotation of Oryza sativa ssp. japonica and comparative genome analysis with Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
We present here the annotation of the complete genome of rice Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica cultivar Nipponbare. All functional annotations for proteins and non-protein-coding RNA (npRNA) candidates were manually curated.

Finding protein-coding genes through human polymorphisms.
Human gene catalogs are fundamental to the study of human biology and medicine. But they are all based on open reading frames (ORFs) in a reference genome sequence (with allowance for introns).

Integrative analyses of transcriptome sequencing identify novel functional lncRNAs in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. [PDF]
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have a critical role in cancer initiation and progression, and thus may mediate oncogenic or tumor suppressing effects, as well as be a new class of cancer therapeutic targets. We performed high-throughput sequencing of RNA

H3K9me3-heterochromatin loss at protein-coding genes enables developmental lineage specification
Reversing chromatin dynamics for development Compacted chromatin regions, marked by trimethylation of histone H3 at position lysine 9 (H3K9me3), occur at highly repeated DNA sequences, helping to suppress recombination and gene expression.

Transduplication resulted in the incorporation of two protein-coding sequences into the Turmoil-1 transposable element of C. elegans [PDF]
Transposable elements may acquire unrelated gene fragments into their sequences in a process called transduplication. Transduplication of protein-coding genes is common in plants, but is unknown of in animals.

A unified allosteric/torpedo mechanism for transcriptional termination on human protein-coding genes
In this study, Eaton et al. examine the validity of the allosteric and torpedo models of transcription termination on protein-coding genes. Using several genomic and molecular assays, the authors propose a model that combines both allosteric/torpedo ...

Evolution of organellar genes of chlorophyte algae: Relevance to phylogenetic inference.
Protein-coding genes in organellar genomes have been widely used to resolve relationships of chlorophyte algae. The mode of evolution of these protein-coding genes affects relationship estimations, yet selection effects on genes commonly used as markers ...
