8 new human genome projects offer large-scale picture of genetic difference

A nationwide consortium led by the University of Washington in Seattle has completed the first sequence-based map of structural variations in the human genome, giving scientists an overall picture of the large-scale differences in DNA between individuals. The project gives researchers a guide for further research into these structural differences, which are believed to play an important role in human health and disease. The results appear in the May 1 issue of the journal Nature.

Researchers Produce First Sequence Map of Large-Scale Structural Variation in Human Genome

A nationwide team of researchers, funded in part by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has produced the first sequence-based map of large-scale structural variation across the human genome. The work, published in the journal "Nature", provides a starting point to examine how such DNA variation contributes to human health and disease.

A Genome in Any Format

In a recent post, Andrew Yates asked, "How much data is a human genome?" He then did a little math to show that an uncompressed diploid human genome would easily fit on two music CDs, if stored as a text file. That got Genetic Future's Daniel MacArthur thinking. There are, he says, other formats that a human genome could be stored in, including as images from an Illumina machine. In that format, a genome with 30x coverage would take up about 28.80 terabytes. Also, if the sequence data is stored as a Sequence Read Format file, the storage space'll top out at 1.98 terabytes.

Ancestry Surprises From New Genetics Analysis Method

An anonymous reader commends a recently published study involving a new way to analyze genetic variation in human populations (full article published in PLOS Genetics): "[S]cientists from Ireland, the UK and the US analysed 2,540 genetic markers in the DNA of almost 1,000 people from around the world whose genetic material had been collected by the Human Genome Diversity Project. The results include a number of surprises... the Yakut people of northern Siberia were found to have received a significant genetic contribution from the population of the Orkney Islands, which lie off the coast of Scotland... there must have been a period of gene flow from northern Europe to east Asia. The study also shed light on the peopling of the Americas, as the results suggest that the native populations of north and south America have different origins.

Baylor College Of Medicine To Use Applied Biosystems Genetic Analysis Technology As Part Of 1000 Genomes Project

Houston, TX - Scientists at the Baylor College of Medicine Human Genome Sequencing Center (HGSC), USA, will use high throughput sequencing systems from Applied Biosystems , an Applera Corporation business, for a significant part of their contribution to the first pilot phases of the 1000 Genomes Project, sponsored by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), the Wellcome Trust and the Beijing Genome Institute. This project is a worldwide research effort that will involve the sequencing of 1,000 genomes from people from around the world to create the most detailed and medically useful picture to date of human genetic variation. The HGSC will acquire six SOLiD Systems in order to complete the work.

First Draft of Oil Palm Genome Completed by Synthetic Genomics Inc and Asiatic Centre for Genome Technology

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia and LA JOLLA, Calif., May 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Asiatic Centre for Genome Technology Sdn Bhd (ACGT), which is focused on the commercial application of genome technology to improve oil palm and other crops and Synthetic Genomics Inc. (SGI), a privately held company dedicated to commercializing genomic-driven solutions to address global energy and environmental challenges, today announced the completion of a first draft assembly and annotation of the oil palm genome. The organizations also announced that they have made progress in sequencing and analyzing the jatropha genome. The oil palm and jatropha genome projects represent the first stages of research undertaken through a joint venture between SGI and ACGT which was announced in 2007 and is aimed at developing more high-yielding and disease-resistant plant feedstocks

Google's New Mobile Search Ads Offer Image, Scale ...

On April 23rd, Google introduced new brand-image mobile search ads, a move that further extends the Internet giant's reach into the mobile Internet advertising bazaar. Google's new brand-image ads are scaled to fit the smaller screens of mobile devices. Google says the new mobile ads must link to Web sites optimized for mobile Internet use and that there is a limit of one display ad per page. The new mobile ads will be targeted to the mobile user's keyword search and will be offered as a cost-per-click to advertisers in 13 countries.

New "Columbus Circle West" Community Graced With New Arts and Culture Center

NEW YORK - Nestled in the center of a new community of over 3,500 condos, "Columbus Circle West" is the brand new state-of-the-art facility, the Manhattan Movement & Arts Center, or MMAC. It was designed by the architects who created some of the country's most acclaimed theatre spaces, including the Joyce and Arena Stage. Located in Manhattan at 248 West 60th Street in the midst of a brand new luxury condominium community called The Element, MMAC's aim is to offer the best dance and fitness classes available to the public, while also acting as a multi-purpose arts center.
