http://www.knockoutmouse.org/about/eucommtools

Functional Annotation of the Mouse Genome, it will complete the International Knockout Mouse Consortium (IKMC) resource of mutations for all protein coding genes. Furthermore, it will maximize the utility of the conditional IKMC resource by generating up to 250 different, mostly inducible Cre driver mouse lines. In addition, EUCOMMTOOLS will develop novel tools to enhance the versatility of the IKMC resource. EUCOMMTOOLS vectors, mutant ES cells and mutant mice are distributed worldwide: EUCOMMTOOLS mutant ES cells and vectors can be obtained from the European Mouse Mutant Cell Repository (EuMMCR). EUCOMMTOOLS mutant mice are archived and distributed by the European Mouse Mutant Archive (EMMA). Knockout-first Mutant Alleles: EUCOMMTOOLS will create 3500 C57Bl/6 conditional mutant alleles for single-exon (or otherwise previously conditionally untargeted) protein-coding mouse genes. These alleles will be made predominantly by introducing an "artificial intron", containing a standard EUCOMM promoter-driven targeting cassette, into the coding sequence of the single-exon gene. Cre Resources: EUCOMMTOOLS will engineer 500 new Cre C57Bl/6 ES cell lines by Cre knock-ins into genes with useful expression patterns. The resource will be made with inducible forms of Cre recombinase such as CreERT2. Up to 250 lines of Cre driver mice on a pure C57Bl/6N background will be generated and the Cre expression patterns documented and annotated in day P14 and P56. These mice will form a matched Cre driver resource for C57Bl/6N mice produced from conditional IKMC resources. Research, Technology and Complementary Reagents: EUCOMMTOOLS will develop novel technologies to add value, depth and flexibility to existing IKMC ES cell and mouse resources. Key areas include: * Development of novel recombinase based regulatory switches * Exploration of zinc-finger nuclease stimulated homologous recombination strategies in fertilized oocytes * Development and validation of complementary modular vector reagents which enable the construction of new useful knock-in alleles such as fluorescent and other reporters, site specific recombinases, and mutant cDNAs. These novel alleles can be constructed either by re-utilizing existing IKMC modular vector resources or directly modifying existing targeted IKMC ES cell lines by RMCE.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 6,2023. Web interface to the ANNOVAR software, a tool to annotate functional consequences of genetic variation from high-throughput sequencing data, to help biologists without bioinformatics skills to easily submit a list of mutations (even whole-genome variants calls) to the web server, select the desired annotation categories, and receive functional annotation back by emails. Given a list of single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and insertions / deletions in VCF or ANNOVAR input format, wANNOVAR annotates their functional effects on genes (such as amino acid changes for non-synonymous SNPs), calculate their predicted functional importance scores (such as SIFT and PolyPhen scores), retrieve allele frequencies in public databases (such as the 1000 Genomes Project and NHLBI-ESP 6500 exomes), and implement a variants reduction protocol to identify a subset of potentially deleterious variants., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastx&BLAST_PROGRAMS=blastx&PAGE_TYPE=BlastSearch&SHOW_DEFAULTS=on&LINK_LOC=blasthome

Web application to search protein databases using a translated nucleotide query. Translated BLAST services are useful when trying to find homologous proteins to a nucleotide coding region. Blastx compares translational products of the nucleotide query sequence to a protein database. Because blastx translates the query sequence in all six reading frames and provides combined significance statistics for hits to different frames, it is particularly useful when the reading frame of the query sequence is unknown or it contains errors that may lead to frame shifts or other coding errors. Thus blastx is often the first analysis performed with a newly determined nucleotide sequence and is used extensively in analyzing EST sequences. This search is more sensitive than nucleotide blast since the comparison is performed at the protein level.

http://wishart.biology.ualberta.ca/BacMap

An interactive visual database containing hundreds of fully labeled, zoomable, and searchable maps of bacterial genomes. It uses a visualization tool (CGView) to generate high-resolution circular genome maps from sequence feature information. Each map includes an interface that allows the image to be expanded and rotated. In the default view, identified genes are drawn to scale and colored according to coding directions. When a region of interest is expanded, gene labels are displayed. Each label is hyperlinked to a custom ''gene card'' which provides several fields of information concerning the corresponding DNA and protein sequences. Each genome map is searchable via a local BLAST search and a gene name/synonym search. A complete listing of the species and strains in the BacMap database is available on the BacMap homepage. Below each species/strain name is a list of the sequenced chromosomes and plasmids that are available. Some features of BacMap include: * Maps are available for 2023 bacterial chromosomes. * Each map supports zooming and rotation. * Map gene labels are hyperlinked to detailed textual annotations. * Maps can be explored manually, or with the help of BacMap''s built in text search and BLAST search. * A written synopsis of each bacterial species is provided. * Several charts illustrating the proteomic and genomic characteristics of each chromosome are available. * Flat file versions of the BacMap gene annotations, gene sequences and protein sequences can be downloaded. BacMap can be used to: * Obtain basic genome statistics. * Visualize the genomic context of genes. * Search for orthologues and paralogues in a genome of interest. * Search for conserved operon structure. * Look for gene content differences between bacterial species. * Obtain pre-calculated annotations for bacterial genes of interest.

http://www.sugp.caltech.edu/SpBase/

SpBase is designed to present the results of the genome sequencing project for the purple sea urchin. The sequences and annotations emerging from this effort are organized in a database that provides the research community access to those data not normally presented through National Center for Biotechnology Information and other large databases. Additionally, the unique information on that links gene identities and sequences to the plate and well location to the library filters from the Sea Urchin genome Resource will also be presented. The software used to organize and present the sea urchin genome comes from GMOD, a collection of open source software tools for creating and managing genome-scale biological databases. That sea urchins eggs and embryos have long remained a popular research subject for cell and developmental biologists is one rationale for sequencing the genome. In addition, studies of embryonic development in the California Purple Sea Urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus , have paralleled the emergence of molecular techniques ranging from the characterization of genomic repeat sequences in the 1970''s to the elucidation of gene regulatory networks in recent times. The parent of this site, SUGP, was meant to provide a focal point for the exchange of genomic information as the genome of the Purple sea urchin was being sequenced. Over these past years it has served as a repository for small sequencing projects and a source of sequence information useful for gene discovery projects. Here one could find information on macro-array libraries of cDNAs from the purple sea urchin and genomic DNA from several species. In addition, a Sequence Tag Connector (STC) collection has been assembled from 5% of the genome sequence and a very extensive repeat sequence catalog prepared. All of the sequence data that we maintained at SUGP was incorporated into the new SPBase. Of course, it is all in public sequence databases such as the National Center for Biological Information as well. Some additional sequence information is available at the Resource Center of the German Human Genome Project. With the publication of The Genome of the Sea Urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus by The Sea Urchin Genome Sequencing Consortium a link to the first 9941 gene annotations are now publicly available. The effort to sequence the whole purple sea urchin genome was a cooperative one that included contributions from the Sea Urchin Genome Facility here at the Center for Computational Regulatory Genomics, Beckman Institute, Caltech, and support from the Human Genome Research Institute of the National Institutes of Health. The sequencing was done at the Baylor College of Medicine, Human Genome Sequencing Center, Houston, Texas. Funding was approved based on an initiative submitted by the Sea Urchin Genome Advisory Committee.

Genetic variations associated with type 1 diabetes identified by sequencing regions of the non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse genome and comparing them with the same areas of a diabetes-resistant C57BL/6J reference mouse allowing identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or other genomic variations putatively associated with diabetes in mice. Finished clones from the targeted insulin-dependent diabetes (Idd) candidate regions are displayed in the NOD clone sequence section of the website, where they can be downloaded either as individual clone sequences or larger contigs that make up the accession golden path (AGP). All sequences are publicly available via the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration. Two NOD mouse BAC libraries were constructed and the BAC ends sequenced. Clones from the DIL NOD BAC library constructed by RIKEN Genomic Sciences Centre (Japan) in conjunction with the Diabetes and Inflammation Laboratory (DIL) (University of Cambridge) from the NOD/MrkTac mouse strain are designated DIL. Clones from the CHORI-29 NOD BAC library constructed by Pieter de Jong (Children's Hospital, Oakland, California, USA) from the NOD/ShiLtJ mouse strain are designated CHORI-29. All NOD mouse BAC end-sequences have been submitted to the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Consortium (INSDC), deposited in the NCBI trace archive. They have generated a clone map from these two libraries by mapping the BAC end-sequences to the latest assembly of the C57BL/6J mouse reference genome sequence. These BAC end-sequence alignments can then be visualized in the Ensembl mouse genome browser where the alignments of both NOD BAC libraries can be accessed through the Distributed Annotation System (DAS). The Mouse Genomes Project has used the Illumina platform to sequence the entire NOD/ShiLtJ genome and this should help to position unaligned BAC end-sequences to novel non-reference regions of the NOD genome. Further information about the BAC end-sequences, such as their alignment, variation data and Ensembl gene coverage, can be obtained from the NOD mouse ftp site.

DNA samples and cell lines from fifteen populations, including the samples used for the International HapMap Project, the HapMap 3 Project and the 1000 Genomes Project (except for the CEPH samples). All of the samples were contributed with consent to broad data release and to their use in many future studies, including for extensive genotyping and sequencing, gene expression and proteomics studies, and all other types of genetic variation research. NHGRI led the contribution of the NIH to the International HapMap Project, which developed a haplotype map of the human genome. This haplotype map, called the HapMap is a publicly available tool that allows researchers to find genes and genetic variations that affect health and disease. The samples from four populations used to develop the HapMap were initially housed in the Human Genetic Cell Repository of the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS). Except for the Utah CEPH samples that were in the NIGMS Repository before the initiation of the HapMap Project and remain there, the NHGRI Repository now houses all of the HapMap samples. The NHGRI repository also houses the extended set of HapMap samples, which includes additional samples from the HapMap populations and samples from seven additional populations. All of the samples were collected with extensive community engagement, including discussions with members of the donor communities about the ethical and social implications of human genetic variation research. These samples were studied as part of the HapMap 3 Project. The NHGRI repository also houses the samples for the International 1000 Genomes Project. This Project is lightly sequencing genome-wide 2500 samples from 27 populations. This project aims to provide a detailed map of human genetic variation, including common and rare SNPs and structural variants. This map will allow more precise localization of genomic regions that contribute to health and disease. The 1000 Genomes Project includes many of the samples from the HapMap and extended set of HapMap samples, as well as samples being collected from additional populations. Currently, samples from five additional populations are available; the others will become available during 2011 and 2012. No identifying or phenotypic information is available for the samples. Donors gave broad consent for use of the samples, including for genotyping, sequencing, and cellular phenotype studies. Samples collected from other populations for the study of human genetic variation may be added to the collection in the future. The NHGRI Repository distributes high quality lymphoblastoid cell lines and DNA from the samples to researchers. DNA is provided in plates or panels of 70 to 100 samples or as individual samples. Cell cultures and DNA samples are distributed only to qualified professional persons who are associated with recognized research, medical, educational, or industrial organizations engaged in health-related research or health delivery.

http://beetlebase.org/

A centralized sequence database and community resource for Tribolium genetics, genomics and developmental biology containing genomic sequence scaffolds mapped to 10 linkage groups, genetic linkage maps, the official gene set, Reference Sequences from NCBI (RefSeq), predicted gene models, ESTs and whole-genome tiling array data representing several developmental stages. The current version of Beetlebase is built on the Tribolium castaneum 3.0 Assembly (Tcas 3.0) released by the Human Genome Sequencing Center at the Baylor College of Medicine. The database is constructed using the upgraded Generic Model Organism Database (GMOD) modules. The genomic data is stored in a PostgreSQL relational database using the Chado schema and visualized as tracks in GBrowse. The genetic map is visualized using the comparative genetic map viewer CMAP. To enhance search capabilities, the BLAST search tool has been integrated with the GMOD tools. Tribolium castaneum is a very sophisticated genetic model organism among higher eukaryotes. As the member of a primitive order of holometabolous insects, Coleoptera, Tribolium is in a key phylogenetic position to understand the genetic innovations that accompanied the evolution of higher forms with more complex development. Coleoptera is also the largest and most species diverse of all eukaryotic orders and Tribolium offers the only genetic model for the profusion of medically and economically important species therein. The genome sequences may be downloaded.
