Initial sequencing and comparative analysis of the mouse genome.

Robert H. Waterston, +222 more
- 05 Dec 2002 - 
TL;DR: The results of an international collaboration to produce a high-quality draft sequence of the mouse genome are reported and an initial comparative analysis of the Mouse and human genomes is presented, describing some of the insights that can be gleaned from the two sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI

The hypocretins: Hypothalamus-specific peptides with neuroexcitatory activity

TL;DR: A hypothalamus-specific mRNA is described that encodes preprohypocretin, the putative precursor of a pair of peptides that share substantial amino acid identities with the gut hormone secretin, suggesting that the hypocretins function within the CNS as neurotransmitters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Absence epilepsy in tottering mutant mice is associated with calcium channel defects

TL;DR: The first mutations in a mammalian central nervous system-specific voltage-sensitive calcium channel gene that is mutated in tg and tg(la) mice are defined and the first gene involved in absence epilepsy is identified.
