A database of phylogenetic trees of animal genes. It aims at developing a curated resource that gives reliable information about ortholog and paralog assignments, and evolutionary history of various gene families. TreeFam defines a gene family as a group of genes that evolved after the speciation of single-metazoan animals. It also tries to include outgroup genes like yeast (S. cerevisiae and S. pombe) and plant (A. thaliana) to reveal these distant members.TreeFam is also an ortholog database. Unlike other pairwise alignment based ones, TreeFam infers orthologs by means of gene trees. It fits a gene tree into the universal species tree and finds historical duplications, speciations and losses events. TreeFam uses this information to evaluate tree building, guide manual curation, and infer complex ortholog and paralog relations.The basic elements of TreeFam are gene families that can be divided into two parts: TreeFam-A and TreeFam-B families. TreeFam-B families are automatically created. They might contain errors given complex phylogenies. TreeFam-A families are manually curated from TreeFam-B ones. Family names and node names are assigned at the same time. The ultimate goal of TreeFam is to present a curated resource for all the families. phylogenetic tree, animal, vertebrate, invertebrate, gene, ortholog, paralog, evolutionary history, gene families, single-metazoan animals, outgroup genes like yeast (S. cerevisiae and S. pombe), plant (A. thaliana), historical duplications, speciations, losses, Human, Genome, comparative genomics

A database listing potential G-quadruplex regulated genes. G-rich DNA sequences can form G-quadruplexes, a four-stranded structure that is stabilized by planar arrays of four guanines associated with hydrogen bonds. Promoter G-quadruplexes have emerged as a new way to regulate gene transcription, such as in c-MYC expression. Further, G-quadruplex motifs are highly enriched in gene promoter regions in humans and other mammals. Greglist contains genes whose promoter regions have G-quadruplex motifs, and these genes are highly likely to be regulated by G-quadruplexes.

In animals, RNA binding proteins (RBPs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) post-transcriptionally regulate the expression of virtually all genes by binding to RNA. Recent advances in experimental and computational methods facilitate transcriptome-wide mapping of these interactions. It is thought that the combinatorial action of RBPs and miRNAs on target mRNAs form a post-transcriptional regulatory code. We provide a database that supports the quest for deciphering this regulatory code. Within doRiNA, we are systematically curating, storing and integrating binding site data for RBPs and miRNAs. Users are free to take a target (mRNA) or regulator (RBP and/or miRNA) centric view on the data. We have implemented a database framework with short query response times for complex searches (e.g. asking for all targets of a particular combination of regulators). All search results can be browsed, inspected and analyzed in conjunction with a huge selection of other genome-wide data, because our database is directly linked to a local copy of the UCSC genome browser. At the time of writing, doRiNA encompasses RBP data for the human, mouse and worm genomes. For computational miRNA target site predictions, we provide an update of PicTar predictions.

Database platform of an integrated view of eight databases (mouse gene expression resources: EMAGE, GXD, GENSAT, BioGPS, ABA, EUREXPRESS; human gene expression databases: HUDSEN, BioGPS and Human Protein Atlas) that allows the experimentalist to retrieve relevant statistical information relating gene expression, anatomical structure (space) and developmental stage (time). Moreover, general biological information from databases such as KEGG, OMIM and MTB is integrated too. It can be queried using gene and anatomical structure. Output information is presented in a friendly format, allowing the user to display expression maps and correlation matrices for a gene or structure during development. An in-depth study of a specific developmental stage is also possible using heatmaps that relate gene expression with anatomical components. This is a powerful tool in the gene expression field that makes easy the access to information related to the anatomical pattern of gene expression in human and mouse, so that it can complement many functional genomics studies. The platform allows the integration of gene expression data with spatial-temporal anatomic data by means of an intuitive and user friendly display., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

Database on Drosophila melanogaster exons presented in a splicing graph form. Data is based on release 3.2 of the Drosophila melanogaster genome annotations available at FlyBase. The gene structure information extracted from the annotations were checked, clustered and transformed into splicing graph. The splicing graph form of the gene constructs were then used for classification of the various types of alternative splicing events. In addition, Pfam domains were mapped onto the gene structure. Users can query the database using the query page using BLAST, FlyBase Gene Name, FlyBase Gene Symbol, Pfam Accession Number and Pfam Identifier. This allows users to determine the Drosophila melanogaster homology of their gene using a BLAST search and to visualize the alternative splicing variants if any. Users can also determine genes containing a particular domain using the Pfam Accession Numbers and Identifiers.
