Award recognizes outstanding contributions to the genetics community BETHESDA, MD – The Genetics Society of America (GSA) is pleased to announce that Susan E. “Sue” Celniker (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory) has been awarded the Society’s George W. Beadle Award for ...

Sue Celniker’s group has provided FlyBase with updated RNA-Seq coverage data for the modENCODE transcriptome datasets. The high-throughput sequencing reads from these experiments have been re-aligned to the new BDGP Release 6 reference genome assembly (NCBI accession GCA_000001215.4). This update ...

The identification of full length transcripts entirely from short-read RNA sequencing data (RNA-seq) remains a challenge in the annotation of genomes. Here researchers from the University of California at Berkeley describe an automated pipeline for genome annotation that integrates RNA-seq ...
