Exhaustive prediction of disease susceptibility to coding base changes in the human genome
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most abundant form of genomic variation and can cause phenotypic differences between individuals, including diseases. Bases are subject to various levels of selec...

The balance of reproducibility, sensitivity, and specificity of lists of differentially expressed genes in microarray studies
Reproducibility is a fundamental requirement in scientific experiments. Some recent publications have claimed that microarrays are unreliable because lists of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) are not repr...

Large-scale directional relationship extraction and resolution
Relationships between entities such as genes, chemicals, metabolites, phenotypes and diseases in MEDLINE are often directional. That is, one may affect the other in a positive or negative manner. Detection of ...

Wanted: unique names for unique atom positions. PDB-wide analysis of diastereotopic atom names of small molecules containing diphosphate
Biological chemistry is very stereospecific. Nonetheless, the diastereotopic oxygen atoms of diphosphate-containing molecules in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) are often given names that do not uniquely distingui...

Comprehensive analysis of circadian periodic pattern in plant transcriptome
Circadian rhythm is a crucial factor in orchestration of plant physiology, keeping it in synchrony with the daylight cycle. Previous studies have reported that up to 16% of plant transcriptome are circadially ...

A structural approach for finding functional modules from large biological networks
Biological systems can be modeled as complex network systems with many interactions between the components. These interactions give rise to the function and behavior of that system. For example, the protein-pr...
