Expressed Sequence Tags: Medium-Throughput Protocols
Abstract
Generating expressed sequence tags is a simple, cheap, and efficient way to sample the genome of a target organism. An expressed sequence tag (EST) is a single-pass sequence derived from a single complementary DNA (cDNA) clone, and the sequence serves to identify the gene from which it derives. We present a set of tested laboratory protocols for setting up and performing an EST analysis of any chosen species. These medium-throughput protocols do not require dedicated genomics equipment, such as robots, and focus on the use of microtiter plates and multichannels. Using these protocols, a single competent research worker should be able to generate 2000 ESTs in 1 mo. In a nonnormalized library, these 2000 ESTs should identify between 1000 and 1500 different genes, and thus possibly between 10 and 20% of the genes of any target parasite.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
