Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center (RRID:SCR_008695) | GARD | disease-related portal, topical portal, data or information resource, portal | Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center (GARD) is a collaborative effort of two agencies of the National Institutes of Health, The Office of Rare Diseases Research (ORDR) and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) to help people find useful information about genetic conditions and rare diseases. GARD provides timely access to experienced information specialists who can furnish current and accurate information about genetic and rare diseases. So far, GARD has responded to 27,635 inquiries on about 7,147 rare and genetic diseases. Requests come not only from patients and their families, but also from physicians, nurses and other health-care professionals. GARD also has proved useful to genetic counselors, occupational and physical therapists, social workers, and teachers who work with people with a genetic or rare disease. Even scientists who are studying a genetic or rare disease and who need information for their research have contacted GARD, as have people who are taking part in a clinical study. Community leaders looking to help people find resources for those with genetic or rare diseases and advocacy groups who want up-to-date disease information for their members have contacted GARD. And members of the media who are writing stories about genetic or rare diseases have found the information GARD has on hand useful, accurate and complete. GARD has information on: :- What is known about a genetic or rare disease. :- What research studies are being conducted. :- What genetic testing and genetic services are available. :- Which advocacy groups to contact for a specific genetic or rare disease. :- What has been written recently about a genetic or rare disease in medical journals. GARD information specialists get their information from: :- NIH resources. :- Medical textbooks. :- Journal articles. :- Web sites. :- Advocacy groups, and their literature and services. :- Medical databases. | genetic, disease, information, genome, human, rare disease, health, physician, counselor, gene, journal, medical | has parent organization: National Institutes of Health | Office of Rare Diseases Research ; NHGRI |

SEGS Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
SEGS (RRID:SCR_003554) | SEGS | service resource, analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource | A web tool for descriptive analysis of microarray data. The analysis is performed by looking for descriptions of gene sets that are statistically significantly over- or under-expressed between different scenarios within the context of a genome-scale experiments (DNA microarray). Descriptions are defined by using the terms from the Gene Ontology (GO), the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways and gene-gene interactions found in the ENTREZ database. Gene annotations by GO and KEGG terms can also be found in the ENTREZ database. The tool provides three procedures for testing the enrichment of the gene sets (over- or under-expressed): Fisher's exact test, GSEA and PAGE, and option for combining the results of the tests. Because of the multiple-hypothesis testing nature of the problem, all the p-values are computed using the permutation testing method. | microarray, pathway, gene-gene interaction, gene, interaction, annotation, gene expression, ortholog, molecular function, biological process, cellular component, enriched gene set, gene set |

T-profiler Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
T-profiler (RRID:SCR_003452) | T-profiler | service resource, analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource | One of the key challenges in the analysis of gene expression data is how to relate the expression level of individual genes to the underlying transcriptional programs and cellular state. The T-profiler tool hosted on this website uses the t-test to score changes in the average activity of pre-defined groups of genes. The gene groups are defined based on Gene Ontology categorization, ChIP-chip experiments, upstream matches to a consensus transcription factor binding motif, and location on the same chromosome, respectively. If desired, an iterative procedure can be used to select a single, optimal representative from sets of overlapping gene groups. A jack-knife procedure is used to make calculations more robust against outliers. T-profiler makes it possible to interpret microarray data in a way that is both intuitive and statistically rigorous, without the need to combine experiments or choose parameters. Currently, gene expression data from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans are supported. Users can submit their microarray data for analysis by clicking on one of the two organism-specific tabs above.

Distant Regulatory Elements (RRID:SCR_003058) | DiRE | service resource, analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource | Web server based on the Enhancer Identification (EI) method, to determine the chromosomal location and functional characteristics of distant regulatory elements (REs) in higher eukaryotic genomes. The server uses gene co-expression data, comparative genomics, and combinatorics of transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) to find TFBS-association signatures that can be used for discriminating specific regulatory functions. DiRE's unique feature is the detection of REs outside of proximal promoter regions, as it takes advantage of the full gene locus to conduct the search. DiRE can predict common REs for any set of input genes for which the user has prior knowledge of co-expression, co-function, or other biologically meaningful grouping. The server predicts function-specific REs consisting of clusters of specifically-associated TFBSs, and it also scores the association of individual TFs with the biological function shared by the group of input genes. Its integration with the Array2BIO server allows users to start their analysis with raw microarray expression data. | regulatory element, enhancer identification, genome, prediction, transcription factor binding site, gene, co-expression, co-function, function, transcription factor, comparative genomics, regulatory function, gene locus, chromosome, bio.tools |
