Software application that implements valid and efficient statistical methods for meta-analysis of genomewide association studies with overlapping subjects. The current release performs logistic regression analysis of individual level data under the additive mode of inheritance. Data from genome-wide association studies are often analyzed jointly for the purposes of combining information from multiple studies of the same disease or comparing results across different disorders. In many instances, the same subjects appear in multiple studies. Failure to account for overlapping subjects can greatly inflate type I error when combining results from multiple studies of the same disease and can drastically reduce power when comparing results across different disorders.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 26, 2016. LINNEA Pathways is a user-friendly comprehensive online resource for gene- or protein-based scientific research. It is based on a total of 248 signaling and metabolic human biological pathway maps created for Invitrogen by GeneGo. The current version of iPath features 225 maps displaying human regulatory and metabolic pathways established in experimental literature produced by MetaCore from GeneGo, Inc. The map objects (proteins, genes, EC functions, and compounds) are connected via metabolic transformations and physical protein interactions, which were assembled by the GeneGo team of experienced annotators, geneticists, and biochemists. The pathways are organized in a vertical fashion following the general signaling path from signaling molecules and membrane receptors, via signal transduction cascades, to transcription factors and their gene targets. Following the natural organization of cellular machinery with highly interconnected pathways and modules, many maps are linked together via hyperlinked box symbols. Such linkage allows the reconstruction of a big picture view of human cell biology., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on November 22, 2023. A database containing genomic/biological information on anopheline mosquitoes, with an emphasis on Anopheles gambiae, the world''''s most important malaria vector. AnoBase is an integrated, relational database of basic biological and genetic data on anopheline species, with a particular emphasis on Anopheles gambiae. It has been designed as an information source and research support tool for the broad vector biology community. Although AnoBase is not a primary genomic database that develops and provides tools to access the genome of the malaria mosquito, it nevertheless contains several sections that offer data of genomic interest such as in situ hybridization images, an integrated gene tool and direct online access to AnoXcel, the proteomic database of An. gambiae. Moreover, AnoBase also contains information on non-gambiae mosquito species and a novel section on studies related to insecticide resistance.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 15, 2013. This is the official database of the environmental chlamydia genome project. This resource provides access to finished sequence for Parachlamydia-related symbiont UWE25 and to a wide range of manual annotations, automatical analyses and derived datasets. Functional classification and description has been manually annotated according to the Annotation guidelines. Chlamydiae are the major cause of preventable blindness and sexually transmitted disease. Genome analysis of a chlamydia-related symbiont of free-living amoebae revealed that it is twice as large as any of the pathogenic chlamydiae and had few signs of recent lateral gene acquisition. We showed that about 700 million years ago the last common ancestor of pathogenic and symbiotic chlamydiae was already adapted to intracellular survival in early eukaryotes and contained many virulence factors found in modern pathogenic chlamydiae, including a type III secretion system. Ancient chlamydiae appear to be the originators of mechanisms for the exploitation of eukaryotic cells. Environmental chlamydiae have recently been recognized as obligate endosymbionts of free-living amoebae and have been implicated as potential human pathogens. Environmental chlamydiae form a deep branching evolutionary lineage within the medically important order Chlamydiales. Despite their high diversity and ubiquitous distribution in clinical and environmental samples only limited information about genetics and ecology of these microorganisms is available. The Parachlamydia-related Acanthamoeba symbiont UWE25 was therefore selected as representative environmental chlamydia strain for whole genome sequencing. Comparative genome analysis was performed using PEDANT and simap. Sponsors: The environmental chlamydia genome project was funded by the bmb+f (German Federal Ministry of Education and Research) and is part of the Competence Network PathoGenoMiK.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. The CDKN2A Database presents the germline and somatic variants of the CDKN2A tumor suppressor gene recorded in human disease through June 2003, annotated with evolutionary, structural, and functional information, in a format that allows the user to either download it or manipulate it for their purposes online. The goal is to provide a database that can be used as a resource by researchers and geneticists and that aids in the interpretation of CDKN2A missense variants. Most online mutation databases present flat files that cannot be manipulated, are often incomplete, and have varying degrees of annotation that may or may not help to interpret the data. They hope to use CDKN2A as a prototype for integrating computational and laboratory data to help interpret variants in other cancer-related genes and other single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) found throughout the genome. Another goal of the lab is to interpret the functional and disease significance of missense variants in cancer susceptibility genes. Eventually, these results will be relevant to the interpretation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in general. The CDKN2A locus is a valuable model for assessing relationships among variation, structure, function, and disease because: Variants of this gene are associated with hereditary cancer: Familial Melanoma (and related syndromes); somatic alterations play a role in carcinogenesis; allelic variants occur whose functional consequences are unknown; reliable functional assays exist; and crystal structure is known. All variants in the database are recorded according to the nomenclature guidelines as outlined by the Human Genome Variation Society. This database is currently designed for research purposes only and is not yet recommended as a clinical resource. Many of the mutations reported here have not been tested for disease association and may represent normal, non-disease causing polymorphisms.

The GeneSeeker allows you to search across different databases simultaneously, given a known human genetic location and expression/phenotypic pattern. The GeneSeeker returns any found gene names which are located on the specified location and expressed in the specified tissue. To search for more expression location in one search, just enter them in the textbox for the expression location and separate them with logical operators (and, or, not). You can specify as many tissues as you want, the program starts 20 queries simultaneously, and then waits for a query to finish before starting another query, to keep server loads to a minimum. You can also search only for expression, just leave the cytogenetic location fields blank, and do the query. If you only want to look for one cytogenetic location, only fill in the first location field, and the GeneSeeker will search with only this one. Housekeeping genes , found in Swissprot can be excluded, or genes that are to be excluded can be specified. Human chromosome localizations are translated with an oxford-grid to mouse chromosome localizations, and then submitted to the Mgd. Sponsors: GeneSeeker is a service provided by the Centre for Molecular and Biomolecular Informatics (CMBI).

Software application where GC implements the genomic control models. GCF implements the basic Genomic Control approach, but adjusts the p-values for uncertainty in the estimated effect of substructure. This approach is preferable if a large number of tests will be evaluated because it provides a more accurrate assessment of the significance level for small p-values.

Software application that refines linkage analysis of affected sibpairs by considering attributes or environmental exposures thought to affect disease liability. This refinement utilizes a mixture model in which a disease mutation segregates in only a fraction of the sibships, with the rest of the sibships unlinked. Covariate information is used to predict membership within the two groups corresponding to the linked and unlinked sibships. The pre-clustering model uses covariate information to first form two probabilistic clusters and then tests for excess IBD-sharing in the clusters. The Cov-IBD model determines probabilistic group membership by joint consideration of covariate and IBD values. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)
