IMGT/HLA Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
IMGT/HLA (RRID:SCR_002971) | IMGT HLA, IMGT/HLA | data repository, storage service resource, data or information resource, service resource, database | Database for sequences of the human major histocompatibility complex (HLA) and includes the official sequences for the WHO Nomenclature Committee For Factors of the HLA System. It currently contains 9,310 allele sequences (2013) along with detailed information concerning the material from which the sequence was derived and data on the validation of the sequences. It is established procedure for authors to submit the sequences directly to the IMGT/HLA Database for checking and assignment of an official name prior to publication, this avoids the problems associated with renaming published sequences and the confusion of multiple names for the same sequence. The need for reasonably rapid publication of new HLA allele sequences has necessitated an annual meeting of the WHO Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System. Additionally they now publish monthly HLA nomenclature updates both in journals and online to provide quick and easy access to new sequence information. The IMGT/HLA Database is part of the international ImMunoGeneTics project. In collaboration with the Imperial Cancer Research Fund (ICRF) and European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) they have developed an Oracle database to house the HLA sequences in such a way as to allow users to present complex queries about the sequence, sequence features, references, contacts and allele designations to the database via a graphical user interface over the web. The IMGT/HLA Database Submission Tool allows direct submission of sequences to the WHO HLA Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System. The IMGT/HLA Database provides an FTP site for the retrieval of sequences in a number of pre-formatted files. | alignment, allele, cell, hla, sequence alignment, major histocompatibility complex, nomenclature, blast, immunogenetics, histocompatibility, gene mapping, gene rearrangement, genetic recombination, genetics, gold standard, bio.tools |

It has been merged with Cell Image Library. Database for sharing and mining cellular and subcellular high resolution 2D, 3D and 4D data from light and electron microscopy, including correlated imaging that makes unique and valuable datasets available to the scientific community for visualization, reuse and reanalysis. Techniques range from wide field mosaics taken with multiphoton microscopy to 3D reconstructions of cellular ultrastructure using electron tomography. Contributions from the community are welcome. The CCDB was designed around the process of reconstruction from 2D micrographs, capturing key steps in the process from experiment to analysis. The CCDB refers to the set of images taken from microscope the as the Microscopy Product. The microscopy product refers to a set of related 2D images taken by light (epifluorescence, transmitted light, confocal or multiphoton) or electron microscopy (conventional or high voltage transmission electron microscopy). These image sets may comprise a tilt series, optical section series, through focus series, serial sections, mosaics, time series or a set of survey sections taken in a single microscopy session that are not related in any systematic way. A given set of data may be more than one product, for example, it is possible for a set of images to be both a mosaic and a tilt series. The Microscopy Product ID serves as the accession number for the CCDB. All microscopy products must belong to a project and be stored along with key specimen preparation details. Each project receives a unique Project ID that groups together related microscopy products. Many of the datasets come from published literature, but publication is not a prerequisite for inclusion in the CCDB. Any datasets that are of high quality and interest to the scientific community can be included in the CCDB. | electron microscope, light microscopy, electron tomography, electron microscopy, image, cell, microscopy, tomography |
