Tool that provides an interactive method to examine quantitative relationships between brain regions defined by different digital atlases or parcellation methods. Its current focus is for human brain imaging, though the techniques generalize to other domains. The method offers a quantitative answer to the nomenclature problem in neuroscience by comparing brain parts on the basis of their geometrical definitions rather than on the basis of name alone. Thus far these tools have been used to quantitatively compare eight distinct parcellations of the International Consortium for Brain Mapping (ICBM) single-subject template brain, each created using existing atlasing methods. This resources provides measures of global and regional similarity, and offers visualization techniques that allow users to quickly identify the correspondences (or lack of correspondences) between regions defined by different atlases.

Automatic prediction tool to infer protein-protein interaction networks, it is applicable for lots of species using orthology and known interactions. The interoPORC method is based on the interolog concept and combines source interaction datasets from public databases as well as clusters of orthologous proteins (PORC) available on Integr8. Users can use this page to ask InteroPorc for all species present in Integr8. Some results are already computed and users can run InteroPorc to investigate any other species. Currently, the following databases are processed and merged (with datetime of the last available public release for each database used): IntAct, MINT, DIP, and Integr8.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented June 5, 2017. 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.

Distinguishes report of how to assay SNP from use of that SNP with individuals and populations. This separation simplifies some issues of data representation. However, these initial reports describing how to assay SNP will often be accompanied by SNP experiments measuring allele occurrence in individuals and populations.

A probabilistic search tool for identifying damaged genes and their disease-causing variants in personal genome sequences. VAAST combines elements of phylogenetic conservation, amino acid substitution, and aggregative approaches to variant prioritization into a single unified likelihood-framework that allows users to accurately identify damaged genes and deleterious variants. The software can score both coding (SNV, indel and splice site) and non-coding variants (SNV), evaluating the cumulative impact of both types of variants simultaneously. It can identify rare variants causing rare genetic diseases and can also use both rare and common variants to identify genes responsible for common diseases.

Catalog of all changes detected in PKHD1 (Polycystic Kidney and Hepatic Disease 1) in a locus specific database. Investigators are invited to submit their novel data to this database. These data should be meaningful for clinical practice as well as of relevance for the reader interested in molecular aspects of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). There are also some links and information for ARPKD patients and their parents. Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD/PKHD1) is an important cause of renal-related and liver-related morbidity and mortality in childhood. This study reports mutation screening in 90 ARPKD patients and identifies mutations in 110 alleles making up a detection rate of 61%. Thirty-four of the detected mutations have not been reported previously. Two underlying mutations in 40 patients and one mutation in 30 cases are disclosed, and no mutation was detected on the remaining chromosomes. Mutations were found to be scattered throughout the gene without evidence of clustering at specific sites. PKHD1 mutation analysis is a powerful tool to establish the molecular cause of ARPKD in a given family. Direct identification of mutations allows an unequivocal diagnosis and accurate genetic counseling even in families displaying diagnostic challenges.

https://www.genevestigator.com/gv/

A high performance search engine for gene expression that integrates thousands of manually curated public microarray and RNAseq experiments and nicely visualizes gene expression across different biological contexts (diseases, drugs, tissues, cancers, genotypes, etc.). There are two basic analysis approaches: # for a gene of interest, identify which conditions affect its expression. # for condition(s) of interest, identify which genes are specifically expressed in this/these conditions. Genevestigator builds on the deep integration of data, both at the level of data normalization and on the level of sample annotations. This deep integration allows scientists to ask new types of questions that cannot be addressed using conventional tools.

Ontology used to describe the experimental conditions within cognitive and behavioral experiments, primarily in humans for application and use in the functional neuroimaging community. CogPO has been developed through the integration of the Functional Imaging Biomedical Informatics Research Network (FBIRN) Human Imaging Database (HID) and the BrainMap Database. The design of CogPO concentrates on what can be observed directly: categorization of each paradigm in terms of (1) the stimulus presented to the subjects, (2) the requested instructions, and (3) the returned response.

An automatic whole-brain extraction tool for T1-weighted MRI data (commonly known as skull stripping). Whole-brain segmentation is often the first component in neuroimage pipelines and therefore, its robustness is critical for the overall performance of the system. Many methods have been proposed in the literature, but they often: * work well on certain datasets but fail on others. * require case-specific parameter tuning ROBEX aims for robust skull-stripping across datasets with no parameter settings. It fits a triangular mesh, constrained by a shape model, to the probabilistic output of a supervised brain boundary classifier. Because the shape model cannot perfectly accommodate unseen cases, a small free deformation is subsequently allowed. The deformation is optimized using graph cuts.
