Gene Expression Database Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
Gene Expression Database (RRID:SCR_006539) | GXD | data repository, storage service resource, data or information resource, service resource, database | Community database that collects and integrates the gene expression information in MGI with a primary emphasis on endogenous gene expression during mouse development. The data in GXD are obtained from the literature, from individual laboratories, and from large-scale data providers. All data are annotated and reviewed by GXD curators. GXD stores and integrates different types of expression data (RNA in situ hybridization; Immunohistochemistry; in situ reporter (knock in); RT-PCR; Northern and Western blots; and RNase and Nuclease s1 protection assays) and makes these data freely available in formats appropriate for comprehensive analysis. There is particular emphasis on endogenous gene expression during mouse development. GXD also maintains an index of the literature examining gene expression in the embryonic mouse. It is comprehensive and up-to-date, containing all pertinent journal articles from 1993 to the present and articles from major developmental journals from 1990 to the present. GXD stores primary data from different types of expression assays and by integrating these data, as data accumulate, GXD provides increasingly complete information about the expression profiles of transcripts and proteins in different mouse strains and mutants. GXD describes expression patterns using an extensive, hierarchically-structured dictionary of anatomical terms. In this way, expression results from assays with differing spatial resolution are recorded in a standardized and integrated manner and expression patterns can be queried at different levels of detail. The records are complemented with digitized images of the original expression data. The Anatomical Dictionary for Mouse Development has been developed by our Edinburgh colleagues, as part of the joint Mouse Gene Expression Information Resource project. GXD places the gene expression data in the larger biological context by establishing and maintaining interconnections with many other resources. Integration with MGD enables a combined analysis of genotype, sequence, expression, and phenotype data. Links to PubMed, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), sequence databases, and databases from other species further enhance the utility of GXD. GXD accepts both published and unpublished data. | endogenous, expression assay, expression data, expression image, gene expression, genes, image, immunohistochemistry, in situ reporter, knock in, mouse, mouse mutant, northern blot, nuclease protection assay, rna in situ hybridization, rnase protection assay, rt-pcr, western blot, endogenous gene expression, mouse development, gene, transcript, protein, annotation, development, embryonic mouse, bio.tools, FASEB list |

MIRIAM Resources Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
MIRIAM Resources (RRID:SCR_006697) | web service, catalog, data or information resource, data access protocol, software resource, narrative resource, database, standard specification | A set of online services created in support of MIRIAM, a set of guidelines for the annotation and curation of computational models. The core of MIRIAM Resources is a catalogue of data types (namespaces corresponding to controlled vocabularies or databases), their URIs and the corresponding physical URLs or resources. Access to this data is made available via exports (XML) and Web Services (SOAP). MIRIAM Resources are developed and maintained under the BioModels.net initiative, and are free for use by all. MIRIAM Resources are composed of four components: a database, some Web Services, a Java library and this web application. * Database: The core of the system is a MySQL database. It allows us to store the data types (which can be controlled vocabularies or databases), their URIs and the corresponding physical URLs, and other details such as documentation and resource identifier patterns. Each entry contains a diverse set of details about the data type: official name and synonyms, root URI, pattern of identifiers, documentation, etc. Moreover, each data type can be associated with several resources (or physical locations). * Web Services: Programmatic access to the data is available via Web Services (based on Apache Axis and SOAP messages). In addition, REST-based services are currently being developed. This API allows one to not only resolve model annotations, but also to generate appropriate URIs, based upon the provision of a resource name and accession number. A list of available web services, and a WSDL are provided. A browser-based online demonstration of the Web Services is also available to try. * Java Library: A Java library is provided to access the Web Services. The documentation explains where to download it, its dependencies, and how to use it. * Web Application: A Web application, using an Apache Tomcat server, offers access to the whole data set via a Web browser. It is possible to browse by data type names as well as browse by tags. A search engine is also provided. | life science, bio.tools |

SpliceTrap (RRID:SCR_006728) | SpliceTrap | software resource | A statistic tool for quantifying exon inclusion ratios in paired-end RNA-seq data, with broad applications for the study of alternative splicing. SpliceTrap approaches to exon inclusion level estimation as a Bayesian inference problem. For every exon it quantifies the extent to which it is included, skipped or subjected to size variations due to alternative 3?/5? splice sites or Intron Retention. In addition, SpliceTrap can quantify alternative splicing within a single cellular condition, with no need of a background set of reads. | bio.tools |

Descriptions of Plant Viruses Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Descriptions of Plant Viruses (RRID:SCR_006656) | data or information resource, portal, database, topical portal | DPVweb provides a central source of information about viruses, viroids and satellites of plants, fungi and protozoa. Comprehensive taxonomic information, including brief descriptions of each family and genus, and classified lists of virus sequences are provided. The database also holds detailed, curated, information for all sequences of viruses, viroids and satellites of plants, fungi and protozoa that are complete or that contain at least one complete gene. For comparative purposes, it also contains a single representative sequence of all other fully sequenced virus species with an RNA or single-stranded DNA genome. The start and end positions of each feature (gene, non-translated region and the like) have been recorded and checked for accuracy. As far as possible, nomenclature for genes and proteins are standardized within genera and families. Sequences of features (either as DNA or amino acid sequences) can be directly downloaded from the website in FASTA format. The sequence information can also be accessed via client software for PC computers (freely downloadable from the website) that enable users to make an easy selection of sequences and features of a chosen virus for further analyses. The public sequence databases contain vast amounts of data on virus genomes but accessing and comparing the data, except for relatively small sets of related viruses can be very time consuming. The procedure is made difficult because some of the sequences on these databases are incorrectly named, poorly annotated or redundant. The NCBI Reference Sequence project (1) provides a comprehensive, integrated, non-redundant set of sequences, including genomic DNA, transcript (RNA) and protein products, for major research organisms. This now includes curated information for a single sequence of each fully sequenced virus species. While this is a welcome development, it can only deal with complete sequences. An important feature of DPV is the opportunity to access genes (and other features) of multiple sequences quickly and accurately. Thus, for example, it is easy to obtain the nucleotide or amino acid sequences of all the available accessions of the coat protein gene of a given virus species or for a group of viruses. To increase its usefulness further, DPVweb also contains a single representative sequence of all other fully sequenced virus species with an RNA or single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) genome.
