In 2010, the project finished its pilot phase, which was described in detail in a publication in the journal Nature. [1] In 2012, the sequencing of 1092 genomes was announced in a Nature publication. [2] In 2015, two papers in Nature reported results and the completion of the project and opportunities for future research. [3] [4]
1000 Genomes Project: launched in January 2008. The genomes of more than a thousand anonymous participants from a number of different ethnic groups were analyzed and made publicly available. EggNOG Database: a hierarchical, functionally and phylogenetically annotated orthology resource based on 5090 organisms and 2502 viruses. It provides ...
The WHG has been involved in many international statistical genetics advances including the Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortia (WTCCC, WTCCC2), the 1000 Genomes Project and the International HapMap Project. [10]
Bradley wanted to build on the achievements made by the Sanger Institute in the Human Genome Project by "concentrating on gene function, cancer genomics, and the genomes of model organisms such as the mouse and the zebrafish". [51] Bradley received his BA, MA and PhD in genetics from the University of Cambridge. [52] [53] [54] [55]
Pacific Biosciences became the latest entrant in what The New York Times called "a heated race for the '$1,000 genome'". [18] [19] In 2009, Stanford University professor Stephen Quake published a paper sequencing his own genome on an instrument built by Helicos Biosciences (a company he co-founded) for a reported cost in consumables of $48,000 ...
The format was developed in 2010 for the 1000 Genomes Project and has since been used by other large-scale genotyping and DNA sequencing projects. [1] [2] VCF is a common output format for variant calling programs due to its relative simplicity and scalability.
In genetics, imputation is the statistical inference of unobserved genotypes. [1] It is achieved by using known haplotypes in a population, for instance from the HapMap or the 1000 Genomes Project in humans, thereby allowing to test for association between a trait of interest (e.g. a disease) and experimentally untyped genetic variants, but whose genotypes have been statistically inferred ...
Initially the focus was on the human and mouse reference genomes, but in expansions new organisms were added to the consortium. In October 2010 full maintenance and improvement of the zebrafish genome sequence was added to the GRC; [ 2 ] in 2015, after the release of the chicken genome assembly Gallus_gallus-5.0, GRC added the chicken reference ...
