THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on June 29, 2012. Gene Class Expression allows functional annotation of SAGE data using the Gene Ontology database. This tool performs searches in the GO database for each SAGE tag, making associations in the selected GO category for a level selected in the hierarchy. This system provides user-friendly data navigation and visualization for mapping SAGE data onto the gene ontology structure. This tool also provides graphical visualization of the percentage of SAGE tags in each GO category, along with confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. Platform: Online tool

Microarrays are at the center of a revolution in biotechnology, allowing researchers to screen tens of thousands of genes simultaneously. Typically, they have been used in exploratory research to help formulate hypotheses. In most cases, this phase is followed by a more focused, hypothesis driven stage in which certain specific biological processes and pathways are thought to be involved. Since a single biological process can still involve hundreds of genes, microarrays are still the preferred approach as proven by the availability of focused arrays from several manufacturers. Since focused arrays from different manufacturers use different sets of genes, each array will represent any given regulatory pathway to a different extent. We argue that a functional analysis of the arrays available should be the most important criterion used in the array selection. We developed Onto-Compare as a database that can provide this functionality, based on the GO nomenclature. Compare commercially available microarrays based on GO. User account required.

Database of histopathology photomicrographs and macroscopic images derived from mutant or genetically manipulated mice. The database currently holds more than 1000 images of lesions from mutant mice and their inbred backgrounds and further images are being added continuously. Images can be retrieved by searching for specific lesions or class of lesion, by genetic locus, or by a wide set of parameters shown on the Advanced Search Interface. Its two key aims are: * To provide a searchable database of histopathology images derived from experimental manipulation of the mouse genome or experiments conducted on genetically manipulated mice. * A reference / didactic resource covering all aspects of mouse pathology Lesions are described according to the Pathbase pathology ontology developed by the Pathbase European Consortium, and are available at the site or on the Gene Ontology Consortium site - OBO. As this is a community resource, they encourage everyone to upload their own images, contribute comments to images and send them their feedback. Please feel free to use any of the SOAP/WSDL web services. (under development)

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.

Map of identifyied genes controlling traits of economic and welfare significance in the pig. The project objectives were to produce a genetic map with markers spaced at approximately 20 centiMorgan intervals over at least 90% of the pig genome; to produce a physical map with at least one distal and one proximal landmark locus mapped on each porcine chromosome arm and also genetically mapped; to develop a flow karyotype for the pig based on FACS sorted chromosomes; to develop PCR based techniques to enable rapid genotyping for polymorphic markers; to evaluate synteny conservation between pigs, man, mice and cattle; to develop and evaluate the statistical techniques required to analyze data from QTL mapping experiments and to plan and initiate the mapping of QTLs in the pig; to map loci affecting traits of economic and biological significance in the pig; and to develop the molecular tools to allow the future identification and cloning of mapped loci. Animal breeders currently assume that economically important traits such as growth, carcass composition and reproductive performance are controlled by an infinite number of genes each of infinitessimal effect. Although this model is known to be unrealistic, it has successfully underpinned the genetic improvement of livestock, including pigs, over recent decades. A map of the pig genome would allow the development of more realistic models of the genetic control of economic traits and the ultimately the identification of the major trait genes. This would allow the development of more efficient marker assisted selection which may be of particular value for traits such as disease resistance and meat quality.

Database of ascidian embryonic development at the level of the genome (cis-regulatory sequences, gene expression, protein annotation), of the cell (morphology, fate, induction, lineage) or of the whole embryo (anatomy, morphogenesis). Currently, four organism models are described in Aniseed: Ciona intestinalis, Ciona savignyi, Halocynthia roretzi and Phallusia mammillata.
This version supports four sets of Ciona intestinalis transcript models: JGI v1.0, KyotoGrail 2005, KH and ENSEMBL, all functionally annotated, and grouped into Aniseedv3.0 gene models. Users can explore their expression profiles during normal or manipulated development, access validated cis-regulatory regions, get the molecular tools used to assay gene function, or all articles related to the function, or regulation of a given gene. Known transcriptional regulators and targets are listed for each gene, as are the gene regulatory networks acting in individual anatomical territories.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 28,2025. Tool that integrates phenotype, gene function, and disease information with personal genomic data for improved power to identify disease-causing alleles. It works by combining knowledge resident in multiple biomedical ontologies with the outputs of variant prioritization tools. It does so using an algorithm that propagates information across and between ontologies. This process enables Phevor to accurately reprioritize potentially damaging alleles identified by variant prioritization tools in light of gene function, disease, and phenotype knowledge. Phevor is especially useful for single exome and family trio-based diagnostic analyses, the most commonly occurring clinical scenarios, and ones for which existing personal-genomes diagnostic tools are most inaccurate and underpowered. Phevor not only improves diagnostic accuracy for individuals presenting with established disease phenotypes, but also for those with previously undescribed and atypical disease presentations. Importantly, Phevor is not limited to known diseases, or known disease-causing alleles.
