  2. Expressed Sequence Tags Single pass sequences of cDNA clones from different libraries High error rate (>1%) mainly frameshifts and insertions/deletions Redundant sampling of 5’ and 3’ ends Large number in public databases EST Data cDNA 3’ ESTs 5’ ESTs EST lengths vary due to varyingpolymerase activity

  3. The human ESTs were classified 37 tissues by cDNA library information of CGAP

  6. Mapping of HERV proviral sequences to the human genome

  7. EST-based expression profiles of different HERV families

  8. The four expression ontologies are used to annotate cDNA clone libraries

  9. Clustering HERV proviruses according to their expression patterns Sbit=[lambdaS-(ln K)]/(ln 2) Bit score >= 36 P-value <= 0.01 d=1-[n11/(n11+n10+n01)] average-linkage agglomerative hierarchical clustering

  10. Comparison of the expression levels of different HERV families in normal and cancerous tissues

  11. HERV-K proviruses expressed in tissues in which other members of the family are not usually expressed

  12. HERV expression analysis by massively parallel signature sequencing (MPSS)
