“NIH Urged to Train
Biologists on Computers”
Headline in The Washington Post, Monday June 7 1999
Recommendation of Federal Advisory
Panel to NIH Director Varmus:
Establish 20 new U.S. centers to teach
computer-based biomedical research at
a cost of US$8M per center per year.
Dr. Harold Varmus
Why?
“It’s sink or swim as a
tidal wave of data
approaches”

DNA sequence identity was computed for more than 1000
pairs of orthologous human, mouse, and rat genes
“Homology...
... is the central concept for all of biology. Whenever we say that a
mammalian hormone is the ‘same’ hormone as a fish hormone, that
a human gene sequence is the ‘same’ as a sequence in a chimp or
a mouse, that a HOX gene is the ‘same’ in a mouse, a fruit fly, a
frog, and a human -- even when we argue that discoveries about a
worm, a fruit fly, a frog, a mouse, or a chimp have relevance to the
human condition -- we have made a bold and direct statement
about homology. The aggressive confidence of modern biomedical
science implies that we know what we are talking about.”

Cloning of the mouse “Obesity Gene”
The gene encodes a
protein called
“leptin.”
Sequence homology
searching revealed
nothing about the
possible function of
this protein.
Zhang et al.(1994) Nature 372, 425-432.
Computed prediction of leptin’s 3D structure
IL-2 structure / IL-2 sequence
IL-2 structure / leptin sequence
The protein sequence of leptin is compatible with the
protein structure of interleukin-2 (IL-2), suggesting that
the two may have a similar mechanisms of action
Madej et al. (1995). FEBS Lett. 373,13-18
The structure of leptin is now known
As predicted, it is a
member of the longchain helical cytokine
family, like IL-2

“Functional Genomics”
...refers to the development and application of global
(genome-wide or system-wide) experimental approaches
to assess gene function by making use of the information
and reagents provided by genome projects. It is
characterized by high throughput or large scale
experimental methodologies combined with statistical
and computational analysis of the results.
The fundamental strategy in a functional genomics
approach is to expand the scope of biological investigation from studying single genes or proteins to
studying all genes or proteins at once in a systematic
fashion.
Hieter & Boguski (1997) Science 278: 601-602

Tens of thousands of genes can be studied
in a single microarray experiment

“Anticipated advances in
computer speed will be unable to
keep up with the growing [DNA]
sequence databases and the
demand for homology searches of
