With the massive amount of papers and vast amount of data in the pipeline for the Human Encode project you would almost forget that the same principle (try to apply all molecular assays onto all kind of cell types) is being applied to other species like in Mouse ECODE project. As mouse is one of the laboratories work horses this kind of projects are essential for the advancements in like drug development or in general a better understanding of molecular biology. Will be great to see over the next couple of years how this project is evolving and how much of the results are comparable with the Human.
