Considering our current production rate, we should be able to finish the first pass through the existing cDNA collections that represent about 70% of all Drosophila genes in about a year.
However, this observation is biased because half of the cDNAs in the Drosophila Gene Collection were selected for full-insert sequencing based on EST alignments to Release 2 gene models [ 57], and the WGS3 heterochromatin annotation preserves few of the Release 2 models and adds many new models.
We have identified and sequenced cDNA clones that contain a complete and accurate ORF for 40% of all predicted Drosophila genes.
We used computational analysis of these ESTs to establish a collection of putative full-length cDNA clones, the Drosophila Gene Collection (DGC) [ 1, 2].
Heterochromatin accounts for an estimated 59 megabases (Mb) of the 176-Mb genome of the Drosophila melanogaster female, and the 41-Mb male Y chromosome is entirely heterochromatic (Figure 1).
