Digital karyotyping

Alterations in the genetic content of a cell underlie many human diseases, including cancers. A method called Digital Karyotyping provides quantitative analysis of DNA copy number at high resolution. This approach involves the isolation and enumeration of short sequence tags from specific genomic loci. Analysis of human cancer cells using this method identified gross chromosomal changes as well as amplifications and deletions, including regions not previously known to be altered. Foreign DNA sequences not present in the normal human genome could also be readily identified. Digital Karyotyping provides a broadly applicable means for systematic detection of DNA copy number changes on a genomic scale.

Homology retrieval system, homology retrieval apparatus, and homology retrieval method

A homology retrieval can be performed with higher accuracy than conventional technologies when comparing a query sequence with a target sequence, and retrieving a similar location in the target sequence. The sequence information of a query sequence and a genomic-scale target sequence is acquired, the acquired information is compressingly converted into a compressed query sequence and a compressed target sequence in each of which a homopolymer region including two or more consecutive identical bases is replaced with a single base of the bases, the two sequences are compared, and a refining search is performed for a compressed target partial sequence that matches the compressed query sequence in the compressed target sequence. For the refined compressed candidate sequence and the query sequence, based on the information on the number of consecutive identical bases in the each of the sequences before compression, the number of consecutive bases is compared between the two compressed sequences for each corresponding base, and the degree of similarity indicating homology of the candidate sequence with the query sequence is computed from a degree of match or a degree of mismatch in the number of consecutive bases. By ranking and selecting an arbitrary number of candidate sequences having relatively high homology with the query sequence from this degree of similarity, it is possible to avoid the influence of the number of consecutive identical bases in a homopolymer region, thereby performing a homology retrieval accurately.

Bacterial Metastructure and Methods of Use

Although metabolic networks have been reconstructed on a genome-scale, the corresponding reconstruction and integration of governing transcriptional regulatory networks has not been fully achieved. Here such an integrated network was constructed for amino acid metabolism in Escherichia coli. Analysis of ChlP-chip and gene expression data for the transcription factors ArgR, Lrp, and TrpR showed that 19 / 20 amino acid biosynthetic pathways are either directly or indirectly controlled by these regulators. Classifying the regulated genes into three functional categories of transport, biosynthesis, and metabolism leads to elucidation of regulatory motifs constituting the integrated network's basic building blocks. The regulatory logic of these motifs was determined based on the relationships between transcription factor binding and changes in transcript levels in response to exogenous amino acids. Remarkably, the resulting logic shows how amino acids are differentiated as signaling and nutrient molecules. This reveals the overarching regulatory principles of the amino acid stimulon.
