Comprehensive genomic characterization defines human glioblastoma genes and core pathways

Initial sequencing and analysis of the human genome

The human genome holds an extraordinary trove of information about human development, physiology, medicine and evolution. Here we report the results of an international collabor...

Sequence and comparative analysis of the chicken genome provide unique perspectives on vertebrate evolution

We present here a draft genome sequence of the red jungle fowl, Gallus gallus. Because the chicken is a modern descendant of the dinosaurs and the first non-mammalian amniote to...

Comparative genomic sequence analysis of the human and mouse cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator genes

The identification of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene ( CFTR ) in 1989 represents a landmark accomplishment in human genetics. Since that time, ther...

DNA sequencing of a cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukaemia genome

Acute myeloid leukaemia is a highly malignant haematopoietic tumour that affects about 13,000 adults in the United States each year. The treatment of this disease has changed li...
