THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 16, 2019.
A database that integrates not only RIKEN''''s original large-scale mammalian databases, such as FANTOM, the ENU mutagenesis program, the RIKEN Cerebellar Development Transcriptome Database and the Bioresource Database, but also imported data from public databases, such as Ensembl, MGI and biomedical ontologies. Our integrated database has been implemented on the infrastructure of publication medium for databases, termed SciNetS/SciNeS, or the Scientists'''' Networking System, where the data and metadata are structured as a semantic web and are downloadable in various standardized formats. The top-level ontology-based implementation of mammal-related data directly integrates the representative knowledge and individual data records in existing databases to ensure advanced cross-database searches and reduced unevenness of the data management operations. Through the development of this database, we propose a novel methodology for the development of standardized comprehensive management of heterogeneous data sets in multiple databases to improve the sustainability, accessibility, utility and publicity of the data of biomedical information.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 7,2024. Software for somatic single nucleotide variant (SNV) and small indel detection from sequencing data of matched tumor-normal samples. The method employs a novel Bayesian approach which represents continuous allele frequencies for both tumor and normal samples, whilst leveraging the expected genotype structure of the normal. This is achieved by representing the normal sample as a mixture of germline variation with noise, and representing the tumor sample as a mixture of the normal sample with somatic variation. A natural consequence of the model structure is that sensitivity can be maintained at high tumor impurity without requiring purity estimates. The method has superior accuracy and sensitivity on impure samples compared to approaches based on either diploid genotype likelihoods or general allele-frequency tests.

http://amp.pharm.mssm.edu/Enrichr/
A web-based gene list enrichment analysis tool that provides various types of visualization summaries of collective functions of gene lists. It includes new gene-set libraries, an alternative approach to rank enriched terms, and various interactive visualization approaches to display enrichment results using the JavaScript library, Data Driven Documents (D3). The software can also be embedded into any tool that performs gene list analysis. System-wide profiling of genes and proteins in mammalian cells produce lists of differentially expressed genes / proteins that need to be further analyzed for their collective functions in order to extract new knowledge. Once unbiased lists of genes or proteins are generated from such experiments, these lists are used as input for computing enrichment with existing lists created from prior knowledge organized into gene-set libraries.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone.. Documented on August 19,2019.The goal of The Gene Index Project is to use the available Expressed Sequence Transcript (EST) and gene sequences, along with the reference genomes wherever available, to provide an inventory of likely genes and their variants and to annotate these with information regarding the functional roles played by these genes and their products. The promise of genome projects has been a complete catalog of genes in a wide range of organisms. While genome projects have been successful in providing reference genome sequences, the problem of finding genes and their variants in genomic sequence remains an ongoing challenge. TGI has created an inventory that contains genes and their variants together with description. In addition, this resource is attempting to use these catalogs to find links between genes and pathways in different species and to provide lists of features within completed genomes that can aid in the understanding of how gene expression is regulated. DATABASES *Eukaryotic Gene Orthologues (formerly known as TOGA - TIGR Orthologous Gene Alignment): Eukaryotic Gene Orthologues (EGO) at DFGI are generated by pair-wise comparison between the Tentative Consensus (TC) sequences that comprise the Dana Farber Gene Indices from individual organisms. The reciprocal pairs of the best match were clustered into individual groups and multiple sequence alignments were displayed for each group. *GeneChip Oncology Database (GCOD):Cancer gene expression database is a collection of publicly available microarray expression data on Affymetrix GeneChip Arrays related to human cancers. Currently only datasets with available raw data (Affymetrix .CEL files) are processed. All processed datasets were subjected to extensive manual curation, uniform processing and consistent quality control. You can browse the experiments in our collection, perform statistical analysis, and download processed data; or to search gene expression profiles using Entrez gene symbol, Unigene ID, or Affymetrix probeset ID. *Gene Indices: As of July 1, 2008, there are 111 publicly available gene indices. They are separated into 4 categories for better organization and easier access. Animal: 41, Plant: 45, Protist: 15, Fungal: 10 *Genomic Maps: Human, mouse, rat, chicken, drosophila melanogaster, zebrafish, mosquito, caenorhabditis elegans, Arabidopsis thaliana, rice, yeast, fission yeast Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) Gene Indices Software Tools: *TGI Clustering tools (TGICL): a software system for fast clustering of large EST datasets. *GICL: this package contains the scripts and all the necessary pre-compiled binaries for 32bit Linux systems. *clview: an assembly file viewer. *SeqClean:a script for automated trimming and validation of ESTs or other DNA sequences by screening for various contaminants, low quality and low-complexity sequences. *cdbfasta/cdbyank: fast indexing/retrieval of fasta records from flat file databases. *DAS/XML Genomic Viewer The Genomic viewer borrows modules from http://www.biodas.org (lstein (at) cshl.org) & http://webreference.com.
