Human gene function publications that describe wrongly identified nucleotide sequence reagents are unacceptably frequent within the genetics literature

2021-07-31

Abstract excerpt

Nucleotide sequence reagents underpin a range of molecular genetics techniques that have been applied across hundreds of thousands of research publications. We have previously reported wrongly identified nucleotide sequence reagents in human gene function publications and described a semi-automated screening tool Seek & Blastn to fact-check the targeting or non-targeting status of nucleotide sequence reagents. We...
