Finding the genes in genomic DNA.
Genome sequencing efforts will soon generate hundreds of millions of bases of human genomic DNA containing thousands of novel genes. In the past year, the accuracy of computational gene-finding methods has improved significantly, to the point where a reasonable approximation of the gene structures within an extended genomic region can often be predicted in advance of more detailed experimental studies.
