Mapping the circuits and linking these circuits to the full spectrum of brain function in health and disease is an old challenge but one that can finally be addressed rigorously by combining powerful, emerging technologies,' says. Initial assessment of human gene diversity and expression patterns based upon 83 million nucleotides of cDNA sequence. 'The HCP is truly a grand and critical challenge: to map the wiring diagram of the entire, living human brain. By mapping how neurons in the brain are organized and examining how they communicate with one another, researchers are gaining a clearer understanding of how normal brains work and what happens. 1991 252:1651вЂ“1656.ДЄdams MD, Kerlavage AR, Fleischmann RD, Fuldner RA, Bult CJ, Lee NH, Kirkness EF, Weinstock KG, Gocayne JD, White O, et al. Complementary DNA sequencing: expressed sequence tags and human genome project.

This report demonstrates a novel approach for tissue specific transcriptome mapping using EST-based quantitative assessment.ДЄdams MD, Kelley JM, Gocayne JD, Dubnick M, Polymeropoulos MHM, Xiao H, Merril CR, Wu A, Olde B, Moreno RF, et al. Machine intelligence accelerates research into mapping brains. We reveal that some regions enriched in brain genes show a significant decrease in gene expression in brain tumors, and, conversely that some regions lacking in brain genes show an increased level of gene expression in brain tumors. ESTs from brain tumor tissues have also been mapped to the human genome working draft. The Cuban Human Brain Mapping Project second-wave database contains neuroimaging, medical and cognitive data from, 282 functionally healthy participants from the general Cuban population. Some regions on the genome are dense with brain-enriched genes while some regions lack brain-enriched genes, suggesting a significant correlation between distribution of genes along the chromosome and tissue type. Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) from the public dbEST and proprietary Incyte LifeSeq databases were used to derive a transcript map in conjunction with the working draft assembly of the human genome sequence.Д®xamination of ESTs derived from brain tissues (excluding brain tumor tissues) suggests that these genes are distributed on chromosomes in a non-random fashion. Genome wide transcriptome maps can provide tools to identify candidate genes that are over-expressed or silenced in certain disease tissue and increase our understanding of the structure and organization of the genome.
