Background: With the growing number of public repositories for high-throughput genomic data, it is of great interest to combine the results produced by independent research groups...
Background: Human cancer is caused by the accumulation of tumor-specific mutations in oncogenes and tumor suppressors that confer a selective growth advantage to cells. As a conse...
Background: Phylogenetic relationships between genes are not only of theoretical interest: they enable us to learn about human genes through the experimental work on their relativ...
