Sushi gets serious: the draft genome sequence of the pufferfish Fugu rubripesMartin S Taylor
MRC Human Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, UK
Genome Biol 3:reviews1025. 2002..The publication of the Fugu rubripes draft genome sequence will take this fish from culinary delicacy to potent tool in deciphering the mysteries of human genome function...
Occurrence and consequences of coding sequence insertions and deletions in Mammalian genomesMartin S Taylor
Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics, University of Oxford, Oxford, OX3 7BN, UK
Genome Res 14:555-66. 2004..There is a specific enrichment of CpG dinucleotides in close proximity to insertion events, and both insertions and deletions are more common in higher G+C content sequences...
Evolutionary constraints on the Disrupted in Schizophrenia locusMartin S Taylor
Medical Genetics Section, Molecular Medicine Centre, University of Edinburgh, Crewe Road, Edinburgh EH4 2XU, UK
Genomics 81:67-77. 2003..The amino acid sequence of DISC1 is diverging rapidly, although a putative nuclear localization signal and discrete blocks of coiled coil are specifically conserved features...
Dynamic and physical clustering of gene expression during epidermal barrier formation in differentiating keratinocytesJennifer M Taylor
Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics, Oxford, England
PLoS ONE 4:e7651. 2009..The findings provide a reference for subsequent understanding of how the barrier functions in health and disease...

Identification of common genetic variation that modulates alternative splicingJeremy Hull
University Department of Paediatrics, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, United Kingdom
PLoS Genet 3:e99. 2007..Our findings suggest that phenotypic variation in splicing patterns is determined by the presence of SNPs within flanking introns or exons. Effects on splicing may represent an important mechanism by which SNPs influence gene function...
