Hi. I''m genegeek (aka Catherine Anderson). I realized during my PostDoc that I preferred learning and explaining new results to doing science so I started a non-traditional career of teaching and outreach. I''ll be using this space to explore public perception of genetics and other cool molecular biology stuff. I hope to add to the great discussions re: new science discoveries and general understanding of genetics. I''ve been running an outreach program and enjoy talking to non-experts about their opinions and understanding. I hope my enthusiasm for the topics can come through the screen. My posts are presented as opinion and commentary and do not represent the views of LabSpaces Productions, LLC, my employer, or my educational institution.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. It contains information about segmental duplications in the genomes of chimpanzee, mouse, and rat. The criteria used to identify regions of segmental duplication are: * Sequence identity of at least 90% * Sequence length of at least 5 kb * Not be entirely composed of repetitive elements. BACKGROUND: The high quality of the mouse genome draft sequence and its associated annotations are an invaluable biological resource. Identifying recent duplications in the mouse genome, especially in regions containing genes, may highlight important events in recent murine evolution. In addition, detecting recent sequence duplications can reveal potentially problematic regions of the genome assembly. We use BLAST-based computational heuristics to identify large (>/= 5 kb) and recent (>/= 90% sequence identity) segmental duplications in the mouse genome sequence. Here we present a database of recently duplicated regions of the mouse genome found in the mouse genome sequencing consortium (MGSC) February 2002 and February 2003 assemblies. RESULTS: We determined that 33.6 Mb of 2,695 Mb (1.2%) of sequence from the February 2003 mouse genome sequence assembly is involved in recent segmental duplications, which is less than that observed in the human genome (around 3.5-5%). From this dataset, 8.9 Mb (26%) of the duplication content consisted of "unmapped" chromosome sequence. Moreover, we suspect that an additional 18.5 Mb of sequence is involved in duplication artifacts arising from sequence misassignment errors in this genome assembly. By searching for genes that are located within these regions, we identified 675 genes that mapped to duplicated regions of the mouse genome. Sixteen of these genes appear to have been duplicated independently in the human genome. From our dataset we further characterized a 42 kb recent segmental duplication of Mater, a maternal-effect gene essential for embryogenesis in mice. CONCLUSION: Our results provide an initial analysis of the recently duplicated sequence and gene content of the mouse genome. Many of these duplicated loci, as well as regions identified to be involved in potential sequence misassignment errors, will require further mapping and sequencing to achieve accuracy. A Genome Browser database was set up to display the identified duplication content presented in this work. This data will also be relevant to the growing number of investigators who use the draft genome sequence for experimental design and analysis. The segmental duplication data and summary statistics are available for download and can also be visualized in a genome browser in the GBrowse section. Selected annotation tracks (except the segmental duplication track) have also been obtained from UCSC and loaded into the genome browser. Detailed information (e.g. overlapping genes, overlapping clones, detailed alignment) can be obtained by clicking on a duplication cluster in GBrowse. Both keyword search and BLAT search are available. Analyses based on previous genome assemblies can be found in the Previous Analyses section. Recent Developments The Non-Human Genome Segmental Duplication Database is continually updated including the archived copies of the analysis of all previous genome assemblies and will include all new species as they become available.

https://fungi.ensembl.org/Neurospora_crassa/Info/Index

It's strategy involves Whole Genome Shotgun (WGS) sequencing, in which sequence from the entire genome is generated and reassembled. This method is standard for microbial genome sequencing, and has been successfully applied to Drosophila. Neurospora is an ideal candidate for this approach because of the low repeat content of the genome. Neurospora crassa Database has expanded the scope of its database by including a mitochondrial annotation, incorporating information from the Neurospora compendium, and assigning NCU numbers to tRNA and rRNAs. They have improved the annotation process to predict untranslated regions and to reduce the number of spurious predictions. As a result, version 3 contains 9,826 genes, 794 fewer than version 2. During the initial phase of a WGS project they sequence both ends of the 4 kb inserts from a plasmid library prepared using randomly sheared and sized-selected DNA. The shotgun reads are assembled by recognizing overlapping regions of sequence and making use of the knowledge of the orientation and distance of the paired reads from each plasmid. Obtaining deep sequence coverage though high levels of sequence redundancy assures that the majority of the genome is represented in the initial assembly and that the consensus sequence is of high quality. Their approach toward the initial assembly was conservative, meaning they would rather fail to join sequence contigs that might overlap each other than risk making false joins between two closely related but non-overlapping genomic regions. Hence, the initial assembly contains many sequence contigs and over time these contigs will increase in size and decrease in number as they are joined together. After shotgun sequencing and assembly there was a second phase of sequencing in which additional sequence was obtained from specific regions that were missing from the original assembly or are recognized to be of low quality in the consensus. The Neurospora crassa sequencing project reflects a close collaboration between the Broad Institute and the Neurospora research community. Principal investigators include Bruce Birren and Chad Nusbaum from the Broad Institute, Matt Sachs at the Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology, Chuck Staben at the University of Kentucky and Jak Kinsey at the Fungal Genetics Stock Center at the University of Kansas Medical Center. In addition, we have a larger Advisory Board made up of a number of Neurospora researchers. Sponsors: They have been funded by the National Science Foundation to sequence the N. crassa genome and make the information publicly available.
