Automated partial DNA sequencing was conducted on more than 600 randomly selected
human brain complementary DNA (cDNA) clones to generate expressed sequence tags (ESTs)…

The fly Drosophila melanogaster is one of the most intensively studied organisms in biology
and serves as a model system for the investigation of many developmental and cellular …

A 2.91-billion base pair (bp) consensus sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human
genome was generated by the whole-genome shotgun sequencing method. The 14.8-billion …

This is the first book devoted solely to bacteriophages to be published since the revival of
interest in the subject 20 years ago. Begun by the late Mark Adams, who died before …

Helicobacter pylori, strain 26695, has a circular genome of 1,667,867 base pairs and 1,590
predicted coding sequences. Sequence analysis indicates that H. pylori has well-developed …

An approach for genome analysis based on sequencing and assembly of unselected pieces
of DNA from the whole chromosome has been applied to obtain the complete nucleotide …

The complete 1.66-megabase pair genome sequence of an autotrophic archaeon, Methanococcus
jannaschii, and its 58- and 16-kilobase pair extrachromosomal elements have been …

A comparative analysis of the genomes ofDrosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis
elegans, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae—and the proteins they are predicted to encode—was …

The complete nucleotide sequence (580,070 base pairs) of the Mycoplasma genitalium
genome, the smallest known genome of any free-living organism, has been determined by whole…

The genome of the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi B31, the aetiologic agent of Lyme disease,
contains a linear chromosome of 910,725 base pairs and at least 17 linear and circular …
