http://db-mml.sjtu.edu.cn/ICEberg/
ICEberg is an integrated database that provides comprehensive information about integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) found in bacteria. ICEs are conjugative self-transmissible elements that can integrate into and excise from a host chromosome. An ICE contains three typical modules, integration and excision, conjugation, and regulation modules, that collectively promote vertical inheritance and periodic lateral gene flow. Many ICEs carry likely virulence determinants, antibiotic-resistant factors and/or genes coding for other beneficial traits. ICEberg offers a unique, highly organized, readily explorable archive of both predicted and experimentally supported ICE-relevant data. It currently contains details of 428 ICEs found in representatives of 124 bacterial species, and a collection of >400 directly related references. A broad range of similarity search, sequence alignment, genome context browser, phylogenetic and other functional analysis tools are readily accessible via ICEberg. ICEberg will facilitate efficient, multidisciplinary and innovative exploration of bacterial ICEs and be of particular interest to researchers in the broad fields of prokaryotic evolution, pathogenesis, biotechnology and metabolism. The ICEberg database will be maintained, updated and improved regularly to ensure its ongoing maximum utility to the research community.

The CREATE consortium represents a core of major European and international mouse database holders and research groups involved in conditional mutagenesis, primarily to develop a strategy for the integration and dissemination of Cre driver strains for modelling aspects of complex human diseases in the mouse. Collectively the participants have amassed a significant number of these strains in their respective databases. Therefore one of the goals of CREATE is to provide a unified portal for worldwide access to these critical resources. The portal can either be searched through an advanced BioMart interface, by driver name, or by anatomical site of expression using Embryonic Mouse Anatomy Project (EMAP) and Mouse Anatomy (MA) ontology terms. Search results link back to the original source of the data for more detailed information and to IMSR to order mice if available. The ontology browser is particularly useful as it enables the CREATE consortium to identify cell and tissues that are not currently covered by existing lines. CREATE also aims to coordinate the production of suitable lines by the Cre generation projects described above. Through the CREATE portal, the CREATE consortium aims to develop a strategy for the production, integration and dissemination of new Cre driver strains for modelling aspects of complex human diseases in the mouse. CREATE is also developing a roadmap for harnessing emerging technologies and methods for improving Cre-mediated recombination in vivo through targeted, intensive workshops and discussion forums on the portal. This will entail review of construct design options for classical transgenic constructs (promoter/enhancer used, small size <2025 Kb) vs large transgenic constructs (BAC, P1, YAC etc.); methods used for Cre transgenic lines including random vs targeted integration, position independent expression loci, or replacement of endogenous coding sequences with Cre recombinase under the control of the endogenous locus. CREATE provides a platform for discussion of additional issues specific to inducible Cre strategies including background activity before induction, inducibility (kinetics), efficiency, and protocols used for induction of Cre recombinase activity. Additional components of the technology roadmap will be the cataloguing of other existing methodologies (rtTA, FLP, Dre) of mouse genome modification, sharing information on validated Cre mutant lines as well as identification and assessment of new methods of mutagenesis such as RNAi and other emerging technologies. Other discussion topics addressed through surveys on the CREATE portal include the characterization of Cre lines (specificity of expression/deletion; efficiency of expression/ deletion; reproducibility of deletion from animal to animal for the same floxed allele; reproducibility with different floxed alleles; timing of expression/deletion, etc.), the extent to which Cre expression changes upon backcrossing to specific genetic backgrounds through variegation and silencing; potential phenotypes caused by either integration- mediated mutagenesis or Cre ''toxicity''; and other factors affecting the specificity of Cre-mediated expression/deletion. CREATE regularly integrates common fields from the Cre-X, CreZOO and the MGI recombinase portal resources described below. The data in common consists of: * Transgene or Knock-in name. * MGI ID of allele. * Driver. * Anatomical site of expression. * Pubmed ID. * IMSR strain name and link. * Inducibility (YES/NO).

Community-wide effort (Challenge) for evaluating text mining and information extraction systems applied to the biological domain. It is focused on the comparison of methods and the community assessment of scientific progress, rather than on the purely competitive aspects. There is a considerable difficulty in constructing suitable gold standard data for training and testing new information extraction systems which handle life science literature. Thus the data sets derived from the BioCreAtIvE challenge - because they have been examined by biological database curators and domain experts - serve as useful resources for the development of new applications as well as helping to improve existing ones. Two main issues are addressed at BioCreAtIvE, both concerned with the extraction of biologically relevant and useful information from the literature. The first one is concerned with the detection of biologically significant entities (names) such as gene and protein names and their association to existing database entries. The second one is concerned with the detection of entity-fact associations (e.g. protein - functional term associations ).
