Most-cited papers in Human Genomics

The Cytochrome P450 Homepage

David R. Nelson · 1 Oct 2009

The Cytochrome P450 Homepage is a universal resource for nomenclature and sequence information on cytochrome P450 ( CYP ) genes. The site has been in continuous operation since February 1995. Currently, naming information for 11,512 CYPs are available on the web pages. The P450 sequences are manually curated by David Nelson, and the nomenclature system…

Human ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family

Vasilis Vasiliou, Konstandinos Vasiliou, Daniel W. Nebert · 1 Jan 2008

There exist four fundamentally different classes of membrane-bound transport proteins: ion channels; transporters; aquaporins; and ATP-powered pumps. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are an example of ATP-dependent pumps. ABC transporters are ubiquitous membrane-bound proteins, present in all prokaryotes, as well as plants, fungi, yeast and animals. These pumps can move substrates in (influx) or out (efflux)…

Next-generation sequencing in liquid biopsy: cancer screening and early detection

M Chen, Hongyu Zhao · 1 Aug 2019

In recent years, the rapid development of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies has led to a significant reduction in sequencing cost with improved accuracy. In the area of liquid biopsy, NGS has been applied to sequence circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Since ctDNA is the DNA fragments released by tumor cells, it can provide a molecular profile…

The human fatty acid-binding protein family: Evolutionary divergences and functions

Rebecca L. Smathers, Dennis R. Petersen · 1 Jan 2011

Fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) are members of the intracellular lipid-binding protein (iLBP) family and are involved in reversibly binding intracellular hydrophobic ligands and trafficking them throughout cellular compartments, including the peroxisomes, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and nucleus. FABPs are small, structurally conserved cytosolic proteins consisting of a water-filled, interior-binding pocket surrounded by ten anti-parallel beta sheets,…

Self-reported race/ethnicity in the age of genomic research: its potential impact on understanding health disparities

Tesfaye B. Mersha, Tilahun Abebe · 6 Jan 2015

This review explores the limitations of self-reported race, ethnicity, and genetic ancestry in biomedical research. Various terminologies are used to classify human differences in genomic research including race, ethnicity, and ancestry. Although race and ethnicity are related, race refers to a person's physical appearance, such as skin color and eye color. Ethnicity, on the other…

Human Genomics template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Human Genomics format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Human Genomics template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official BMC (BioMed Central) format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Human Genomics use?
Human Genomics uses Numbered (Vancouver) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith A, Jones B, Lee C. A representative article title. Human Genomics. 2023;12(3):45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Human Genomics?
No. DocuGuru generates the bmcart LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a BMC (BioMed Central)-ready Human Genomics document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Human Genomics template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Human Genomics format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Human Genomics?
BMC / BioMed Central journal. It is a life sciences and medicine journal, published by BMC (BioMed Central).
Can I export a submission-ready Human Genomics PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Human Genomics template (the bmcart class) that is ready to submit to BMC (BioMed Central), together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Human Genomics template cost?
You can start writing in the Human Genomics template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Human Genomics PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
