http://www.cancergenomics.org/
Consortium promoting communication and collaboration among cancer cytogenomics laboratories, who are interested in applying microarray technologies to cancer diagnosis and cancer research. Their oals are to (1) establish platform-neutral and cancer specific microarray designs for diagnostic purposes, (2) share cancer microarray data between participating institutions for education purposes, (3) create a public cancer array database, and (4) carry out multicenter cancer genome translational research. Collaboration amongst the different laboratories and researchers will not only provide validation for the microarray design(s) but ultimately provide more comprehensive molecular information and more accurate interpretation to better serve cancer patients and further cancer research. The CGC was officially incorporated in June 2010 as a not-for-profit organization.

https://github.com/BEETL/BEETL
Software tool that not only compresses FASTQ-formatted DNA reads more compactly than gzip but also permits rapid search for k-mer queries within the archived sequences. The full FASTQ record of each matching read or read pair is returned, allowing the search results to be piped directly to any of the many standard tools that accept FASTQ data as input. Searchable compressed archive for DNA reads.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on April 28, 2017.
Software that performs comparative sequencing, also known as direct sequencing, medical sequencing, PCR sequencing and resequencing with DNA sequencing files. The software is designed for reference based and non-reference based analysis such as mutation detection and analysis, SNP discovery and validation and sequence confirmation.
Proper citation: Variant Reporter Software (RRID:SCR_002329) Copy
Maintains and provides archival, retrieval and analytical resources for biological information. Central DDBJ resource consists of public, open-access nucleotide sequence databases including raw sequence reads, assembly information and functional annotation. Database content is exchanged with EBI and NCBI within the framework of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC). In 2011, DDBJ launched two new resources: DDBJ Omics Archive and BioProject. DOR is archival database of functional genomics data generated by microarray and highly parallel new generation sequencers. Data are exchanged between the ArrayExpress at EBI and DOR in the common MAGE-TAB format. BioProject provides organizational framework to access metadata about research projects and data from projects that are deposited into different databases.
