Evaluation of human gene variant detection in amplicon pools by the GS-FLX parallel Pyrosequencer (2008)

Bordoni, Roberta, Bonnal, Raoul, Rizzi, Ermanno, Carrera, Paola, Benedetti, Sara, Cremonesi, Laura, ...

Abstract Background A new priority in genome research is large-scale resequencing of genes to understand the molecular basis of hereditary disease and cancer. We assessed the ability of massively...

Non-random retention of protein-coding overlapping genes in Metazoa (2008)

Soldà, Giulia, Suyama, Mikita, Pelucchi, Paride, Boi, Silvia, Guffanti, Alessandro, Rizzi, Ermanno, ...

Abstract Background Although the overlap of transcriptional units occurs frequently in eukaryotic genomes, its evolutionary and biological significance remains largely unclear. Here we report a...

Complete gene expression profiling of Saccharopolyspora erythraeausing GeneChip DNA microarrays (2007)

Peano, Clelia, Bicciato, Silvio, Corti, Giorgio, Ferrari, Francesco, Rizzi, Ermanno, Bonnal, Raoul JP, ...

Abstract Background The Saccharopolyspora erythraea genome sequence, recently published, presents considerable divergence from those of streptomycetes in gene organization and function, confirming...

Data handling strategies for high throughput pyrosequencers (2007)

Trombetti, Gabriele A, Bonnal, Raoul JP, Rizzi, Ermanno, De Bellis, Gianluca, Milanesi, Luciano

Abstract Background New high throughput pyrosequencers such as the 454 Life Sciences GS 20 are capable of massively parallelizing DNA sequencing providing an unprecedented rate of output data as well...

Development of a Universal Microarray Based on the Ligation Detection Reaction and 16S rRNA Gene Polymorphism To Target Diversity of Cyanobacteria

Castiglioni, Bianca, Rizzi, Ermanno, Frosini, Andrea, Sivonen, Kaarina, Rajaniemi, Pirjo, Rantala, Anne, ...

The cyanobacteria are photosynthetic prokaryotes of significant ecological and biotechnological interest, since they strongly contribute to primary production and are a rich source of bioactive...
