PROCAP is a study of the importance of lifestyle and genetic factors in the progression of localized cancer of the prostate. Our study hypothesis is that the likelihood of disease recurrence of prostate cancer is modified or determined by genetic variation in the human genome and/or lifestyle factors. To be able to test our hypothesis, we are using a large, population-based cohort of men with localized prostate cancer in Sweden, recruited in 1997-2002, from which detailed clinical information and data on progression already have been collected. From this cohort, we are collecting lifestyle data and blood samples from 8,500 men. If men with progressive prostate cancer could be identified on their genetic make-up, they could be given additional therapies targeted specifically at prostate cancer progression or monitored even more frequently so that progressions could be treated even earlier. If lifestyle factors are important, these results have an impact on recommendations given to men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer. In the study, we are asking the study persons to fill in an Internet-based questionnaire focusing on diet and physical activity and we ask them to leave 2 test tubes of blood at their local urologist/health care center. The pilot study has recently been completed and evaluated and the remaining 7,500 men in the cohort will be included during 2007 and 2008. So far, we have a response rate of approximately 85% on the blood samples. The response rate for the questionnaire is approximately 80% (both in the web based and paper based versions combined). Genotyping and analysis will begin in the fall of 2008. Sample types: * EDTA whole blood * Plasma * DNA Number of sample donors: 5492 (sample collection completed)

http://www.tcd.ie/IMM/trinity-biobank/index.php

The Trinity Biobank was established in 2005 to serve the needs of researchers in the area of genetic epidemiology, population genetics and pharmacogenomics. Its services are available to researchers not only in Trinity College but to other institutions at home and abroad. We provide an automated DNA extraction service purifying large volumes blood (up to 10mL whole blood) and tissue DNA for archival and other purposes. In addition it makes available purified DNA and associated GWAS data from 2000 healthy donors for research use. A key requirement for reliable downstream use of DNA is purity and strand size. The quality of DNA in blood and tissue deteriorates upon storage without purification even at -80 degrees C. We ensure rapid turnaround of biological samples through automated extraction using the Qiagen Autopure system based on optimized ''salting out'' chemistry. The purified DNA sample may then be stored safely at -20 degrees C without deterioration thus freeing up valuable -80 degree C freezer space and the associated capital and maintenance cost as well as security and lab space provision. Automated DNA extraction is particularly suitable for high-throughput sample processing called for in epidemiological studies or simply for clearing sample inventory backlogs. The Trinity Biobank distributes control DNA to researchers as part of its remit to enhance the level of research activity and to synergize molecular medicine research nationally and internationally. The buffy coat collection has been made possible with the cooperation of the Irish Blood Transfusion Service (IBTS). An important requirement to access the collection is that the use of the samples relates only to ethically-approved research and to specifically-nominated research projects. The DNA collection consists of high quality human genomic DNA. Each of the available 2,000 samples is from a single individual and each sample comes with the age and gender data of the donor. The buffy coat sample is derived from the total white cell compliment (50mL buffy coat) of a blood donation (c 400mL). We will endeavor to fulfill samples number requests based on age and gender as best as possible. This collection has also been genotyped using the Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0, featuring 1.8 million genetic markers, including more than 906,600 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and more than 946,000 probes for the detection of copy number variation (CNV). The DNA comes available as a 100ng/uL in 100uL of TE Buffer, ie in 10ug amounts in a separate screw-cap ampoule. The ampoules are shipped in 100-tube boxes (Sarstedt). Corresponding plasma (ACD) is also available on request. Genotype data is supplied in PLINK binary PED files format (http://pngu.mgh.harvard.edu/~purcell/plink/ ).

Swedish study to get a better understanding of how genes, environment and way of life affect health that will enable access to the longitudinal data on 500,000 participants after ethical approval. Half a million people in Sweden between the ages of 0 and 45 will be recruited as volunteers for 6 to 8 years. People between 18 and 45 will be invited and they may, in turn, bring children and other people that they live with into the project. Participants will be followed for many years with regular online surveys and health checks. Their blood and urine samples will also be stored in a biobank. All the data will form a very large information base, where researchers can follow what happens with people''''s health. The LifeGene test center will measure height, hip, waist and chest measurements. A so-called spirometry test will be conducted which measures lung function, a hearing test and bioimpedance measurement (includes weight, BMI and distribution of body fat and muscle mass). They also take blood and urine samples and measure blood pressure and pulse. LifeGene foresees a lot of different research cooperation. Everything from simple withdrawal of longitudinal data, leverage of LifeGene infrastructure and cooperation between LifeGene and complementing scientific projects covering specific areas in more depth. LifeGene will enable access to unique longitudinal data on 500,000 participants available for researchers after ethical approval. LifeGene is also an infrastructure with Test Centers covering most of Sweden, logistics for sample management from arm-to-freezer and state-of-the-art large scale automatic biobanking enabling low cost, high quality, fast withdrawal of biological samples.

Data set of Homo Sapiens Exons, Introns and Splice regions extracted from GenBank Rel.123 with an aim of giving standardized material to train and to assess the prediction accuracy of computational approaches for gene identification and characterization. From the complete GenBank (Primate Sequences Division) Rel.123 (162,557 entries), entries of Human Nuclear DNA including Complete CDS and more than one Exon have been selected, and 4523 exons and 3802 introns have been extracted from these entries. Details about extracted exons and introns are reported (Locus, number, Start and End position in the entry, sequence, length, G+C content, presence of not AGCT data (nucleotide scan check)). Statistics are also reported (overall nucleotides, average G+C content, nucleotide scan check results, number of not GT starting / AG ending introns, minimum / maximum / average length, length standard deviation). 3799+3799 donor and acceptor sites, as windows of 140 nucleotides around each splice site have been extracted. After discarding sequences not including canonical GTAG junctions (65+74), including insufficient data (not enough material for a 140 nucleotide window) (686+589), including not AGCT bases (29+30), and redundant (218+226) there are 2796+ 2880 windows. Finally, there are 271,937 + 332,296 windows of false splice sites, selected by searching canonical GTAG pairs in not splicing positions. The false sites in a range of +/- 60 from a true splice site are marked as proximal.

Data set from a large study to examine EEG correlates of genetic predisposition to alcoholism. It contains measurements from 64 electrodes placed on the scalp sampled at 256 Hz (3.9-msec epoch) for 1 second. There were two groups of subjects: alcoholic and control. Each subject was exposed to either a single stimulus (S1) or to two stimuli (S1 and S2) which were pictures of objects chosen from the 1980 Snodgrass and Vanderwart picture set. When two stimuli were shown, they were presented in either a matched condition where S1 was identical to S2 or in a non-matched condition where S1 differed from S2. There were 122 subjects and each subject completed 120 trials where different stimuli were shown. The electrode positions were located at standard sites (Standard Electrode Position Nomenclature, American Electroencephalographic Association 1990). Zhang et al. (1995) describes in detail the data collection process. There are three versions of the EEG data set. * The Small Data Set (smni97_eeg_data.tar.gz) contains data for the 2 subjects, alcoholic a_co2a0000364 and control c_co2c0000337. For each of the 3 matching paradigms, c_1 (one presentation only), c_m (match to previous presentation) and c_n (no-match to previous presentation), 10 runs are shown. * The Large Data Set (SMNI_CMI_TRAIN.tar.gz and SMNI_CMI_TEST.tar.gz) contains data for 10 alcoholic and 10 control subjects, with 10 runs per subject per paradigm. The test data used the same 10 alcoholic and 10 control subjects as with the training data, but with 10 out-of-sample runs per subject per paradigm. * The Full Data Set contains all 120 trials for 122 subjects. The entire set of data is about 700 MBytes.

Data sets of protein-coding intron-containing genes that contain gene information from humans, mice, rats, and other eukaryotes, as well as genes from species whose genomes have not been completely sequenced. This is a comprehensive and convenient dataset of sequences for computational biologists who study exon-intron gene structures and pre-mRNA splicing. The database is derived from GenBank release 112, and it contains protein-coding genes that harbor introns, along with extensive descriptions of each gene and its DNA and protein sequences, as well as splice motif information. They have created subdatabases of genes whose intron positions have been experimentally determined. The collection also contains data on untranslated regions of gene sequences and intron-less genes. For species with entirely sequenced genomes, species-specific databases have been generated. A novel Mammalian Orthologous Intron Database (MOID) has been introduced which includes the full set of introns that come from orthologous genes that have the same positions relative to the reading frames.

http://aws.amazon.com/1000genomes/

A dataset containing the full genomic sequence of 1,700 individuals, freely available for research use. The 1000 Genomes Project is an international research effort coordinated by a consortium of 75 companies and organizations to establish the most detailed catalogue of human genetic variation. The project has grown to 200 terabytes of genomic data including DNA sequenced from more than 1,700 individuals that researchers can now access on AWS for use in disease research free of charge. The dataset containing the full genomic sequence of 1,700 individuals is now available to all via Amazon S3. The data can be found at: http://s3.amazonaws.com/1000genomes The 1000 Genomes Project aims to include the genomes of more than 2,662 individuals from 26 populations around the world, and the NIH will continue to add the remaining genome samples to the data collection this year. Public Data Sets on AWS provide a centralized repository of public data hosted on Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). The data can be seamlessly accessed from AWS services such Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) and Amazon Elastic MapReduce (Amazon EMR), which provide organizations with the highly scalable compute resources needed to take advantage of these large data collections. AWS is storing the public data sets at no charge to the community. Researchers pay only for the additional AWS resources they need for further processing or analysis of the data. All 200 TB of the latest 1000 Genomes Project data is available in a publicly available Amazon S3 bucket. You can access the data via simple HTTP requests, or take advantage of the AWS SDKs in languages such as Ruby, Java, Python, .NET and PHP. Researchers can use the Amazon EC2 utility computing service to dive into this data without the usual capital investment required to work with data at this scale. AWS also provides a number of orchestration and automation services to help teams make their research available to others to remix and reuse. Making the data available via a bucket in Amazon S3 also means that customers can crunch the information using Hadoop via Amazon Elastic MapReduce, and take advantage of the growing collection of tools for running bioinformatics job flows, such as CloudBurst and Crossbow.
