Genomics, gene expression and DNA arrays
Article Abstract:
Biomedical and biological research is being driven by the increasing amount of gene sequence information. Future research will allow scientists to study arrays of proteins, peptides, tissues, cells, mRNAs, clones and some multicellular organisms. Such powerful applications can be combined to vastly increase biological understanding.

A combined algorithm for genome-wide prediction of protein function
Article Abstract:
Proteins were grouped by correlated evolution, correlated messenger RNA expression patterns and patterns of domain fusion, to determine the functional links between the 6,217 proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a yeast. More than 93,000 pairwise links were found between functionally related yeast proteins.
