In 2014 the CNAG - CRG together with CIBERER launched a call to the Spanish research community offering free - of - charge Whole Exome Sequencing and
bioinformatic analysis for disease gene identification in rare disorders.
Not exact matches
First, samples of leaves from these plants are collected
for in vitro cultures to isolate the fungi; then the DNA and RNA of fungi are extracted to sequence them and, through
bioinformatic analysis, the researcher can determine the expression, the presence or absence of genes in the genomes of a species against each other.
The development of «
bioinformatic packages»
for the
analysis of genetic variability and genotype - phenotype relationships will be of great value
for any basic and applied comparative genomics research issues.
Bioinformatic approaches to the
analysis of genetic variability and complex genotype - phenotype relationships will moreover include gene sequence and database
analyses, measures of association of haplotypes / genotypes with phenotype, clustering procedures, neuronal networks, fuzzy and other techniques in pattern recognition, similarity measures
for discrete patterns (e.g., gene sequences, structures, functions), logistic regression methods, and a spectrum of other techniques.
• Mouse whole genome scanning The unit offers microsatellite and SNP based Genome Scanning Services
for gene identification projects, based on linkage
analysis, offering coverage
for a number of mouse strains (i.e. C57BL6, DBA2J, CBA, 129S6, 129P2), as well as
bioinformatic analysis using suitable mouse genetic software.
Relevant publications: (1) Drug repurposing, computer - based screening (2) Functional testing and novel tools

bioinformatic analysis
MELGEN will explore emergent new techniques,
for example the Sanger Institute (GRL) and ServiceXS will explore new approaches to genomic data generation from such samples and from fresh tumour and, critically, with other participant groups develop new statistical /
bioinformatic approaches to data
analysis.
The branch serves as a focal point at the NIH campus
for the
analysis of a wide variety of large - scale genomic data generated in the course of laboratory and clinical studies, with branch members actively involved in efforts aimed at developing new
bioinformatic approaches
for the
analysis and visualization of these data.
