Article Abstract:

A glut of data would be released from the international Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project in 2006 whose pilot phase involves scrutinizing roughly 1% of the human genome in unprecedented details. The first of the complexities to challenge molecular biology's paradigm of a single DNA sequence encoding a single protein was alternative splicing, discovered in viruses in 1977.
