Themes • An annotated genome can be used to start annotation of a new genome • An existing genome can be used to assess the annotation/assembly progress of a new genome • A new genome can be used to refine annotations of the existing genome CONCLUSIONS
Questions • How evolutionarily distant do two organisms have to be in order for their genomes to be effective in annotating coding regions? regulatory elements? • Are there alternatives to sequence-based (primary structure) comparisons? • Comparative genomic approaches make inferences from common elements. What about novel elements? • In comparative genomics, the more genomes the better: what types of knowledge are gained as we include more genomes? CONCLUSIONS
