More information

Project name Full-length Human cDNA Sequencing Project
Area Genome Informatics
Purpose The team for Long cDNA sequencing were supplied with libraries prepared by Kazusa DNA Research Institute (Kazusa), mostly 4-5kbplong cDNAs. In this project, total 7,252 clones of full-length human cDNA sequence were determined and 519,000 partial sequence data were also determined.(cited from the reports)
Introduction In Japan, since fulllength cDNA isolation technique was taking the lead in the world, “Full-length Human cDNA Sequencing Project” was started in 1999 supported by the supplementary Japanese government budget. In 2000, this project was continued as one of the core projects of so called “Millennium Project” by the Japanese government. In this year, under project, 8,873 clones of full-length human cDNA sequence including 417 short clones were determined and 469,000 partial sequence data were also obtained. All together, in the Millennium Project, 21,017 clones of full-length human cDNA sequence and 1,504,000 partial sequence were determined. (cited from the reports)

HGPD

Summary HGPD is a unique database that stores the information of a set of human Gateway entry clones and protein expression data and helps the user to search the Gateway entry clones. In the full-length human cDNA sequencing project (FLJ project at NEDO), nucleotide sequences of approximately 30000 human cDNA clones have been analyzed.(cited from paper http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/gkn872?ijkey=zKpNqhZH6jrUuzi&keytype=ref)
Data type DNA-sequence
