Human Genome Analysis
The ENCODE and modENCODE consortia have generated a resource
containing large amounts of transcriptomic data, extensive mapping of
chromatin states, as well as the binding locations of over 300
transcription-regulatory factors for human, worm and fly. The consortium performed
extensive data integration by constructing genome-wide co-expression
networks and transcriptional regulatory models, revealing fundamental
principles of transcription and network organization that are
conserved across the three highly divergent animals.

Human Genome Analysis
The ENCODE and modENCODE consortia have generated a resource
containing large amounts of transcriptomic data, extensive mapping of
chromatin states, as well as the binding locations of over 300
transcription-regulatory factors for human, worm and fly. The consortium performed
extensive data integration by constructing genome-wide co-expression
networks and transcriptional regulatory models, revealing fundamental
principles of transcription and network organization that are
conserved across the three highly divergent animals.
I will give an overview of the data and some of the key analyses.
(1) A novel cross-species clustering algorithm to
integrate the co-expression networks of the three species, resulted at
conserved modules shared between the organisms. These modules are
enriched in developmental genes and exhibited hourglass behavior.
(2) A global optimization algorithm to examine the
hierarchical organization of the regulatory network.

enriched in developmental genes and exhibited hourglass behavior.
(2) A global optimization algorithm to examine the
hierarchical organization of the regulatory network.
Despite extensive rewiring of binding targets, high-level organization
principles such as a three-layer heirarchy are conserved across the
three species.
(3) The gene expression levels in the organisms, both coding
and non-coding, can be predicted consistently based on their upstream
histone marks. In fact, a "universal model" with a single set of
cross-organism parameters can predict expression level for both protein
coding genes and ncRNAs.

(4) Their have been many analyses of pseudogenes.
(5) Finally, the extent of the non-coding, non-canonical
transcription is consistent between worm, fly and human.
