Abstract

Human genomic libraries constructed in bacterial artificial chromosome vectors were utilized to make physical maps of all 23-chromosome pairs and as the templates for DNA sequencing to aid in the completion of the Human Genome Project. The goal of this study was to modify the BAC vector pBeloBAC11 so that genomic inserts contained in this vector could be subjected to bidirectional transposon-mediated nested deletions from the wild-type and mutant loxP sites present. An oligonucleotide containing a mutant loxP 2272 site and a XhoI restriction enzyme sequence was designed and inserted at the SfiI restriction site located approximately 200 basepairs upstream of the lacZ gene in pBeloBAC11. Clones containing the desired insert were identified by XhoI restriction digests since an additional band was generated. This transposon-mediated deletion technology allows researchers to identify the boundaries of cis-acting elements and genes.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 April 2018.
All research outputs
#16,357,504
of 24,093,053 outputs
Outputs from BMC Research Notes
#2,402
of 4,361 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#203,763
of 319,934 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Research Notes
#79
of 151 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,093,053 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,361 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.9. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 319,934 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 151 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
