The MIPS Ustilago maydis Genome Database aims to present information on the molecular structure and functional network of the entirely sequenced, filamentous fungus Ustilago maydis. The underlying sequence is the initial release of the high quality draft sequence of the Broad Institute. The goal of the MIPS database is to provide a comprehensive genome database in the Genome Research Environment in parallel with other fungal genomes to enable in depth fungal comparative analysis. The specific aims are to: 1. Generate and assemble Whole Genome Shotgun sequence reads yielding 10X coverage of the U. maydis genome 2. Integrate the genomic sequence assembly with physical maps generated by Bayer CropScience 3. Perform automated annotation of the sequence assembly 4. Align the strain 521 assembly with the FB1 assembly provided by Exelixis 5. Release the sequence assembly and results of our annotation and analysis to public Ustilago maydis is a basidiomycete fungal pathogen of maize and teosinte. The genome size is approximately 20 Mb. The fungus induces tumors on host plants and forms masses of diploid teliospores. These spores germinate and form haploid meiotic products that can be propagated in culture as yeast-like cells. Haploid strains of opposite mating type fuse and form a filamentous, dikaryotic cell type that invades plant tissue to reinitiate infection. Ustilago maydis is an important model system for studying pathogen-host interactions and has been studied for more than 100 years by plant pathologists. Molecular genetic research with U. maydis focuses on recombination, the role of mating in pathogenesis, and signaling pathways that influence virulence. Recently, the fungus has emerged as an excellent experimental model for the molecular genetic analysis of phytopathogenesis, particularly in the characterization of infection-specific morphogenesis in response to signals from host plants. Ustilago maydis also serves as an important model for other basidiomycete plant pathogens that are more difficult to work with in the laboratory, such as the rust and bunt fungi. Genomic sequence of U. maydis will also be valuable for comparative analysis of other fungal genomes, especially with respect to understanding the host range of fungal phytopathogens. The analysis of U. maydis would provide a framework for studying the hundreds of other Ustilago species that attack important crops, such as barley, wheat, sorghum, and sugarcane. Comparisons would also be possible with other basidiomycete fungi, such as the important human pathogen C. neoformans. Commercially, U. maydis is an excellent model for the discovery of antifungal drugs. In addition, maize tumors caused by U. maydis are prized in Hispanic cuisine and there is interest in improving commercial production. The complete putative gene set of the Broad Institute''s second release is loaded into the database and in addition all deviating putative genes from a putative gene set produced by MIPS with different gene prediction parameters are also loaded. The complete dataset will then be analysed, gene predictions will be manually corrected due to combined information derived from different gene prediction algorithms and, more important, protein and EST comparisons. Gene prediction will be restricted to ORFs larger than 50 codons; smaller ORFs will be included only if similarities to other proteins or EST matches confirm their existence or if a coding region was postulated by all prediction programs used. The resulting proteins will be annotated. They will be classified according to the MIPS classification catalogue receiving appropriate descriptions. All proteins with a known, characterized homolog will be automatically assigned to functional categories using the MIPS functional catalog. All extracted proteins are in addition automatically analysed and annotated by the PEDANT suite.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE,documented on January,18, 2022. FaceBase Biorepository is now collecting biological samples from people with cleft lip/palate and their family members. Information for Prospective Cases: Clefts of the lip and/or palate can be caused by a wide range of genetic, environmental and other factors. The FaceBase Biorepository will serve as a common source of both biological samples and information that can be made available to investigators trying to determine the underlying cause of these common birth defects. Genetic studies, in particular, will benefit from both family history information and having samples from affected individuals as well as their family members. DNA is the information containing molecules found in all the cells of our body and can be easily obtained from material such as blood or saliva samples. As part of the FaceBase Biorepository, we are requesting families to submit biological samples from specific family members as well as information from other family members that might be affected with either the same condition or a similar condition. The medical and family history information that is collected includes other relevant information such as exposure to possible environmental causes during pregnancy. The biorepository is managed by Nichole Nidey, a research study coordinator, and Jeff Murray, a pediatric clinical geneticist and researcher. They are available to speak with family members regarding questions they may have, including providing information about the biorepository and making arrangements for the collection of samples for those who wish to participate. All participation is voluntary. Your name or other personally identifiable information (name, address, etc) will be removed before information is placed in the biorepository. Summary data to show how the database itself has been used overall as well as updates on whether specific findings might have been made using this database will be available on the FaceBase website at www.facebase.org. A newsletter containing this information will also be given to families and referring clinicians so that they may discuss the specifics with the families if there appears to be information that might be relevant in a particular case. Families will also need to sign a consent form that has been approved by the Institutional Review Board at the University of Iowa. Also, any submitted samples or data can also be removed from the database at any time should the family no longer wish to participate. Investigators interested in requesting DNA samples or for more information, please contact cleftresearch (at) uiowa.edu, Nichole Nidey, nichole-nidey (at) uiowa.edu or (319) 353-4365, or Jeff Murray, jeff-murray (at) uiowa.edu.

This database presents the entire DNA sequence of the first diploid genome sequence of a Han Chinese, a representative of Asian population. The genome, named as YH, represents the start of YanHuang Project, which aims to sequence 100 Chinese individuals in 3 years. It was assembled based on 3.3 billion reads (117.7Gbp raw data) generated by Illumina Genome Analyzer. In total of 102.9Gbp nucleotides were mapped onto the NCBI human reference genome (Build 36) by self-developed software SOAP (Short Oligonucleotide Alignment Program), and 3.07 million SNPs were identified. The personal genome data is illustrated in a MapView, which is powered by GBrowse. A new module was developed to browse large-scale short reads alignment. This module enabled users track detailed divergences between consensus and sequencing reads. In total of 53,643 HGMD recorders were used to screen YH SNPs to retrieve phenotype related information, to superficially explain the donor's genome. Blast service to align query sequences against YH genome consensus was also provided.
