  1. Drug discovery, disease detection, and personalized medicine are fast-growing areas of genomic research. With the advancement of next-generation sequencing techniques, researchers can obtain an abundance of da...

    Authors: Nathan L Clement, Lee P Thompson and Daniel P Miranker
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2014 15(Suppl 7):S1
  2. Interactions between the epigenome and structural genomic variation are potentially bi-directional. In one direction, structural variants may cause epigenomic changes in cis. In the other direction, specific loca...

    Authors: Cristian Coarfa, Christina Stewart Pichot, Andrew Jackson, Arpit Tandon, Viren Amin, Sriram Raghuraman, Sameer Paithankar, Adrian V Lee, Sean E McGuire and Aleksandar Milosavljevic
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2014 15(Suppl 7):S2
  3. Error correction is an important step in increasing the quality of next-generation sequencing data for downstream analysis and use. Polymorphic datasets are a challenge for many bioinformatic software packages...

    Authors: M Stanley Fujimoto, Paul M Bodily, Nozomu Okuda, Mark J Clement and Quinn Snell
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2014 15(Suppl 7):S3
  4. Currently available microRNA (miRNA) target prediction algorithms require the presence of a conserved seed match to the 5' end of the miRNA and limit the target sites to the 3' untranslated regions of mRNAs. H...

    Authors: Wenlong Xu, Anthony San Lucas, Zixing Wang and Yin Liu
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2014 15(Suppl 7):S4
  5. The mitochondria are essential organelles and are the location of cellular respiration, which is responsible for the majority of ATP production. Each cell contains multiple mitochondria, and each mitochondrion...

    Authors: Perry G Ridge, Taylor J Maxwell, Spencer J Foutz, Matthew H Bailey, Christopher D Corcoran, JoAnn T Tschanz, Maria C Norton, Ronald G Munger, Elizabeth O'Brien, Richard A Kerber, Richard M Cawthon and John SK Kauwe
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2014 15(Suppl 7):S6
  6. Population stratification is a key concern for genetic association analyses. In addition, extreme homogeneity of ethnic origins of a population can make it difficult to interpret how genetic associations in th...

    Authors: Aaron R Sharp, Perry G Ridge, Matthew H Bailey, Kevin L Boehme, Maria C Norton, JoAnn T Tschanz, Ronald G Munger, Christopher D Corcoran and John SK Kauwe
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2014 15(Suppl 7):S8
  7. For decades, mass spectrometry data has been analyzed to investigate a wide array of research interests, including disease diagnostics, biological and chemical theory, genomics, and drug development. Progress ...

    Authors: Rob Smith, Andrew D Mathis, Dan Ventura and John T Prince
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2014 15(Suppl 7):S9
  8. Since the advent of next-generation sequencing many previously untestable hypotheses have been realized. Next-generation sequencing has been used for a wide range of studies in diverse fields such as populatio...
