Genomic multiple sequence alignments: refinement using a genetic algorithm (2005)
Wang, Chunlin, Lefkowitz, Elliot J
Abstract Background Genomic sequence data cannot be fully appreciated in isolation. Comparative genomics – the practice of comparing genomic sequences from different species – plays an...
SS-Wrapper: a package of wrapper applications for similarity searches on Linux clusters (2004)
Wang, Chunlin, Lefkowitz, Elliot J
Abstract Background Large-scale sequence comparison is a powerful tool for biological inference in modern molecular biology. Comparing new sequences to those in annotated databases is a useful source...
Development of a Viral Biological-Threat Bioinformatics Resource (1998)
In response to the potential use of viruses as biological weapons, we have established the Viral Biological-threat Bioinformatics Resource (VBBR) that collects, catalogs, annotates, and analyzes...
Genome of the Bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae Strain R6
Hoskins, JoAnn, Alborn, William E., Arnold, Jeffrey, Blaszczak, Larry C., Burgett, Stanley, DeHoff, Bradley S., ...
Streptococcus pneumoniae is among the most significant causes of bacterial disease in humans. Here we report the 2,038,615-bp genomic sequence of the gram-positive bacterium S. pneumoniae R6. Because...
Genetic Variability among Group A and Group B Respiratory Syncytial Viruses in a Children’s Hospital
Coggins, Wanicha Buraphacheep, Lefkowitz, Elliot J., Sullender, Wayne M.
Respiratory syncytial (RS) viruses isolated over three epidemic periods in a children’s hospital in the United States were analyzed. The viruses (n = 174) were characterized as to major antigenic...

The congenital polycystic kidney (cpk) mutation is the most extensively characterized mouse model of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). The renal cystic disease is fully expressed in homozygotes and is...
The Genome Sequence of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae Strain 232, the Agent of Swine Mycoplasmosis
Minion, F. Chris, Lefkowitz, Elliot J., Madsen, Melissa L., Cleary, Barbara J., Swartzell, Steven M., Mahairas, Gregory G.
We present the complete genome sequence of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, an important member of the porcine respiratory disease complex. The genome is composed of 892,758 bp and has an average G+C...
Lefkowitz, Elliot J., Upton, Chris, Changayil, Shankar S., Buck, Charles, Traktman, Paula, Buller, R. Mark L.
The Poxvirus Bioinformatics Resource Center (PBRC) has been established to provide informational and analytical resources to the scientific community to aid research directed at providing a better...
