Abstracts

The first 150 words of the full text of this article appear below.

Briefings in Bioinformatics aims to provide working biologists with an awareness and understanding of the computational approaches available for research and discovery. The Abstracts section of the journal consists of summaries of bioinformatics manuscripts published in the previous quarter. Inclusion of an article in this section indicates that the editors consider it to be among the most interesting and/or useful contributions to the field for the quarter covered. The contents of these reports are briefly distilled for the readers with an emphasis placed on their biological context and potential utility. Publications from the second quarter of 2006 (April–June), with an emphasis on the evolutionary divergence of the human and chimpanzee genomes, are reviewed here.
