Genome Projects

Genome projects for the parasitic helminths Brugia malayi (a representative filarial nematode) and Schistosoma were initiated in 1995 by the World Health Organization with the ultimate objectives of identifying new vaccine candidates and drug targets and of developing low resolution genome maps. Because no genetic maps are available, and very few genes have been characterized from either parasite group, the first goal of both Initiatives has been to catalogue new genes for future placement on chromosome and physical maps. These genes have been identified by the expressed sequence tag (EST) approach, utilising cDNA libraries constructed from diverse life cycle stages. To date, the Initiatives have deposited over 16000 Brugia ESTs and nearly 8000 Schistosoma ESTs in Genbank's dbEST database, corresponding to 6000 and over 3600 genes respectively (33% of Brugia's estimated gene compliment, 18–24% of that of Schistosoma). Large fragment, genomic libraries have been constructed in BAC and YAC vectors for studies of genomic organization and for physical and chromosome mapping, and public, hypertext genomic databases have been established to facilitate data access. We present a summary of progress within the helminth genome initiatives and give several examples of important gene discoveries and future applications of these data.

Abstract The Genomes OnLine Database (GOLD) (https://gold.jgi.doe.gov/) is a manually curated, daily updated collection of genome projects and their metadata accumulated from around the world. The current version of the database includes over 1.17 million entries organized broadly into Studies (45 770), Organisms (387 382) or Biosamples (101 207), Sequencing Projects (355 364) and Analysis Projects (283 481). These four levels contain over 600 metadata fields, which includes 76 controlled vocabulary (CV) tables containing 3873 terms. GOLD provides an interactive web user interface for browsing and searching by a wide range of project and metadata fields. Users can enter details about their own projects in GOLD, which acts as a gatekeeper to ensure that metadata is accurately documented before submitting sequence information to the Integrated Microbial Genomes (IMG) system for analysis. In order to maintain a reference dataset for use by members of the scientific community, GOLD also imports projects from public repositories such as GenBank and SRA. The current status of the database, along with recent updates and improvements are described in this manuscript.

Current status of special planetary and lunar theories and ephemerides

Numerical Errors

An examination of some specialized lunar and planetary ephemerides has revealed inconsistencies in the adopted planetary masses, the presence of non-gravitational terms, and some outright numerical errors. They should be considered of temporary usefulness only, subject to subsequent amendment as required for the interpretation of observational data.

Electron Microscopes

Solid state x-ray sensing systems have been used for many years in conjunction with scanning and transmission electron microscopes. Such systems conveniently provide users with elemental area maps and quantitative chemical analyses of samples. Improvements on these tools are currently sought in the following areas: sensitivity at longer and shorter x-ray wavelengths and minimization of noise-broadening of spectral lines. In this paper, we review basic limitations and recent advances in each of these areas. Throughout the review, we emphasize the systems nature of the problem. That is. limitations exist not only in the sensor elements but also in the preamplifier/amplifier chain and in the interfaces between these components.Solid state x-ray sensors usually function by way of incident photons creating electron-hole pairs in semiconductor material. This radiation-produced mobile charge is swept into external circuitry by electric fields in the semiconductor bulk.
