USDA-IFAFSproject Oct 2000
“Gene discovery in the rice blast fungus: ESTs and sequence of chromosome 7”1. Generate ~5 X draft sequence of
chromosome 7 (4.2 Mb).
2. Generate 35,000 ESTs and create a set of ~5,000 ESTs representing unique genes.
3. Provide basic sequence analysis and integration of data into physical map of chromosome 7.

Consequences of Scaling
• Moore’s law has allowed labs to keep ahead of data
• Sequence data is now outpacing processing capability
• Bioinformatics processing will be a real problem

Computational platforms
• Modern biology requires robust computational platforms
• Computer technology implementation is expensive (from a biologists viewpoint)
• Computer technology development is even more expensive (you want how much?!)
• This detracts from research for small labs
![Page 10: Center for Integrated Fungal Research](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051622/56814f5e550346895dbd1046/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
On the brink
• Significant investment in off the shelf components and cross training people
• Moderate sized genomes• 20 to 50 Mega Bases
• Takes 2 weeks for initial analyses• Homology searches take days

• Our whole genome arrives Spring 2002• Everyone wants immediate results• Host (Rice) genome size far greater
than the pathogen • Comparative genomics likely to require
N way analyses• And then there’s proteomics ….
And over the . . . edge

Islands of Capability
• There are not enough resources for every lab to re-implement technologies
• Individual centers specialize according to their research focus
• Grid ties together disparate systems• Share knowledge and capabilities• Standards based for interoperability
![Page 22: Center for Integrated Fungal Research](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051622/56814f5e550346895dbd1046/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Organized distributed research - “Virtual Centers”• Bioinformatics
• Tool development• Gene prediction algorithms for filamentous fungi• Gene Indexing
• “Distributed Annotation Systems (DAS)” • Develop better search features “Queries”• Integrate sequenced and annotated BAC clones• Integrate ESTs and expression profiles etc
• Functional Genomics• Comparative studies - saprophyte vs pathogen etc• Coordinate IRBGC and PGI etc
• Complete nucleotide sequence, full length ESTs• Knock out/silence all genes• Transcriptional profiling in various backgrounds (path
mutants)• Construct protein-protein linkage maps (signaling
pathways)

Finding solutions to practical problems
• Seeking answers requires asking questions• Takes 1-2 weeks per question• BioGrid may give near real-time response• BioGrid will bridge the islands of capability• Focus resources back on our work• Consequently, we are going to further
accelerate the rate of discovery
