http://genome.crg.es/GOToolBox/

The GOToolBox web server provides a series of programs allowing the functional investigation of groups of genes, based on the Gene Ontology resource. The web version of the GOToolBox is free for non-commercial users only. Users from commercial companies are allowed to use the site during a reasonable testing period. For a regular use of the web version, a license fee should be paid. We have developed methods and tools based on the Gene Ontology (GO) resource allowing the identification of statistically over- or under-represented terms in a gene dataset; the clustering of functionally related genes within a set; and the retrieval of genes sharing annotations with a query gene. GO annotations can also be constrained to a slim hierarchy or a given level of the ontology. The source codes are available upon request, and distributed under the GPL license. Platform: Online tool

http://www.mugen-noe.org/database/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 5, 2023. MUGEN Mouse Database (MMdb) is a virtual and fully searchable repository of murine models of immune processes and immunological diseases. MMdb is being developed within the context of the MUGEN network of Excellence, a consortium of 21 leading research institutes and universities, and currently holds all mutant mouse models that were developed within the consortium. Its primary aim is to enable information exchange between participating institutions on mouse strain characteristics and availability. More importantly, it aims to create a mouse-centric international forum on modelling of immunological diseases and pave the way to systems biology of the mouse by correlating various genotypic and phenotypic characteristics. The basic categorization of models is based on three major research application categories: * Model of Human Disease * Model of Immune Processes * Transgenic Tool Mutant strains carry detailed information on affected gene(s), mutant alleles and genetic background (DNA origin, targeted, host and backcrossing background). Each gene/transgene index also includes IDs and direct links to Ensembl (EBI��s genome browser), ArrayExpress (providing expression profiles), Eurexpress II (for embryonic expression patterns) and NCBI��s Entrez Gene database. Phenotypic description is standardized and hierarchically structured, based on MGI��s mammalian phenotypic ontology terms, but also includes relevant images and references. Since version 2.1.0 MMdb is also utilizing PATO. Availability (in the form of live mice, cryopreserved embryos or sperm, as well as ES cells) is clearly indicated, along with handling and genotyping details (in the form of documents or hyperlinks) and all relevant contact information (including EMMA and JAX hyperlinks where available).

http://discover.nci.nih.gov/gominer/GoCommandWebInterface.jsp

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. A web program that organizes lists of genes of interest (for example, under- and overexpressed genes from a microarray experiment) for biological interpretation in the context of the Gene Ontology and automates the analysis of multiple microarrays then integrates the results across all of them in exportable output files and visualizations. High-Throughput GoMiner is an enhancement of GoMiner and is implemented with both a command line interface and a web interface. The program can also: efficiently perform automated batch processing of an arbitrary number of microarrays; produce a human- or computer-readable report that rank-orders the multiple microarray results according to the number of significant GO categories; integrate the multiple microarray results by providing organized, global clustered image map visualizations of the relationships of significant GO categories; provide a fast form of false discovery rate multiple comparisons calculation; and provide annotations and visualizations for relating transcription factor binding sites to genes and GO categories.

http://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT01211678

A consortium evaluating a new biomarker screening test that might help identify patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are unlikely to benefit from anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) medications. BATTER-UP will enroll around 1,000 patients being treated by one of several marketed anti-TNF RA drugs: Enbrel, Remicade, Humira, Simponi, or Cimzia. Through data analyses and predictive response modeling, the consortium aims to better understand which patients with RA will derive the greatest benefit from TNF inhibitors. The investigators in this observational study will attempt to validate an 8-gene biomarker set based on work by Biogen Idec researchers as likely to predict anti-TNF responsiveness in patients with RA. In preliminary results, the 8-gene biomarker set predicted with 89% accuracy individuals who did not reach European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Disease Activity Score (DAS)-28 good response after 14 weeks of treatment. The 8 genes included in the screen are CLTB, MXRA7, CXorf52, COL4A3BP, YIPF6, FAM44A, SFRS2, and PGK1. Biological samples and clinical outcome information will be used to confirm and extend the utility of previously published biomarkers that can predict response to anti-TNF agents. These data may also generate new hypotheses for further testing. The BATTER-UP samples and data will be established as a reference set for investigation of personalized medicine in RA. The study will be a resource of DNA and other biological materials that can be investigated for biomarkers in the future as new technologies arise.

http://genewindow.nci.nih.gov/

Software tool for pre- and post-genetic bioinformatics and analytical work, developed and used at the Core Genotyping Facility (CGF) at the National Cancer Institute. While Genewindow is implemented for the human genome and integrated with the CGF laboratory data, it stands as a useful tool to assist investigators in the selection of variants for study in vitro, or in novel genetic association studies. The Genewindow application and source code is publicly available for use in other genomes, and can be integrated with the analysis, storage, and archiving of data generated in any laboratory setting. This can assist laboratories in the choice and tracking of information related to genetic annotations, including variations and genomic positions. Features of GeneWindow include: -Intuitive representation of genomic variation using advanced web-based graphics (SVG) -Search by HUGO gene symbol, dbSNP ID, internal CGF polymorphism ID, or chromosome coordinates -Gene-centric display (only when a gene of interest is in view) oriented 5 to 3 regardless of the reference strand and adjacent genes -Two views, a Locus Overview, which varies in size depending on the gene or genomic region being viewed and, below it, a Sequence View displaying 2000 base pairs within the overview -Navigate the genome by clicking along the gene in the Locus Overview to change the Sequence View, expand or contract the genomic interval, or shift the view in the 5 or 3 direction (relative to the current gene) -Lists of available genomic features -Search for sequence matches in the Locus Overview -Genomic features are represented by shape, color and opacity with contextual information visible when the user moves over or clicks on a feature -Administrators can insert newly-discovered polymorphisms into the Genewindow database by entering annotations directly through the GUI -Integration with a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) or other databases is possible

http://crezoo.crt-dresden.de/crezoo/

Database of helpful set of CreERT2 driver lines expressing in various regions of the developing and adult zebrafish. The lines have been generated via the insertion of a mCherry-T2A-CreERT2 in a gene trap approach or by using promoter fragments driving CreERT2. You can search the list of all transgenic lines or single entries by insertions (gene) or expression patterns (anatomy/region). In most cases the CreERT2 expression profile using in situ hybridization at 24 hpf and 48 hpf is shown, but also additional information (e.g. mCherry or CreERT2 expression at adult stages, transactivation of a Cre-dependent reporter line) is displayed. Currently, not all insertions have been mapped to a genomic location but the database will be regularly updated adding newly generated insertions and mapping information. Your help in improving and broadening the database by giving your opinion or knowledge of expression patterns is highly appreciated.
