Integrative Annotation of 21,037 Human Genes Validated by Full-Length cDNA Clones (2004)

Tadashi Imanishi, Takeshi Itoh, Yutaka Suzuki, Claire O'Donovan, Satoshi Fukuchi, Kanako O. Koyanagi, ...

An international team has systematically validated and annotated just over 21,000 human genes using full-length cDNA, thereby providing a valuable new resource for the human genetics community.

Integrative Annotation of 21,037 Human Genes Validated by Full-Length cDNA Clones (2004)

Tadashi Imanishi, Takeshi Itoh, Yutaka Suzuki, Claire O'Donovan, Satoshi Fukuchi, Kanako O. Koyanagi, ...

The human genome sequence defines our inherent biological potential; the realization of the biology encoded therein requires knowledge of the function of each gene. Currently, our knowledge in this...

Correlation between Sequence Conservation of 5' UTR and Codon Usage Bias (2001)

Hiroaki Sakai, Yusuke Ohkuma, Chiaki Imamura, Akira Shinagawa, Masayoshi Itoh, Kazuhiro Shibata, ...

Introduction Codons encoding the same amino acid are used ofdK with biasedfasedK7z , and such codon usage bias is generally believed to be due to the selectionfl e#cient translation [1]. We have...

Mechanical Properties of SiC Platelet Reinforced Ceramic Composites. (1998)

Sakai, Hiroaki, Matsuhiro, Kieji, Furuse, Yutaka

Mechanical properties of SiC platelet reinforced alumina, mullite, sialon and Si3N4 were evaluated. All these composites showed improved toughness compared to the base matrix. The highest value of...
