THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. For updated mutant information, please visit MMRRC or The Jackson Laboratory. Produces, characterizes, and distributes mutant mouse strains with defects in embryonic and postembryonic development. The goal of the ENU Mutagenesis project III is to determine the function of genes on mouse Chromosome 11 by saturating the chromosome with recessive mutations. The distal 40 cM of mouse Chr 11 exhibits linkage conservation with human Chromosome 17. We are using the chemical N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) to saturate wild type chromosomes with point mutations. By determining the function of genes on a mouse chromosome, we can extrapolate to predict function on a human chromosome. We expect many of the new mutants to represent models of human diseases such as birth defects, patterning defects, growth and endocrine defects, neurological anomalies, and blood defects. Because many of the mutations we expect to isolate may be lethal or detrimental to the mice, we are using a unique approach to isolate mutations. This approach uses a balancer chromosome that is homozygous lethal and carries a dominant coat color marker to suppress recombination over a reasonable interval.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23,2022. Database / display tool of genome scans, with a web interface that lets the user view the data. It does not perform any analyses - these must be done by other software, and the results uploaded into it. The basic features of GSCANDB are: * Parallel viewing of scans for multiple phenotypes. * Parallel analyses of the same scan data. * Genome-wide views of genome scans * Chromosomal region views, with zooming * Gene and SNP Annotation is shown at high zoom levels * Haplotype block structure viewing * The positions of known Trait Loci can be overlayed and queried. * Links to Ensembl, MGI, NCBI, UCSC and other genome data browsers. In GSCANDB, a genome scan has a wide definition, including not only the usual statistical genetic measures of association between genetic variation at a series of loci and variation in a phenotype, but any quantitative measure that varies along the genome. This includes for example competitive genome hybridization data and some kinds of gene expression measurements.

http://www.isi.edu/projects/bioscholar/overview

Knowledge management and engineering system software for experimental biomedical scientists permitting a single scientific worker (at the level of a graduate student or postdoctoral worker) to design, construct and manage a shared knowledge repository for a research group derived on a local store of PDF files. Usability is especially emphasized within a laboratory so that this software could provide support to experimental scientists attempting to construct a personalized representation of their own knowledge on a medium scale. The BioScholar system uses a graphical interface to create experimental designs based on the experimental variables in the system. The design is then analyzed to construct a tabular input form based on the data flow. They call this methodology "Knowledge Engineering from Experimental Design" or "KEfED". The approach is domain-independent but domain-specific modules reasoning can be constructed to generate interpretations from the observational data represented in the KEfED model. The application is available for download as platform-specific installers including Linux, Unix, Mac OS, and Windows. The installer will install an application that will run the BioScholar server. This server uses Jetty as its integrated web server.

https://simtk.org/home/allopathfinder

Software application and code base that allows users to compute likely allosteric pathways in proteins. The underlying assumption is that residues participating in allosteric communication should be fairly conserved and that communication happens through residues that are close in space. The initial application for the code provided was to study the allosteric communication in myosin. Myosin is a well-studied molecular motor protein that walks along actin filaments to achieve cellular tasks such as movement of cargo proteins. It couples ATP hydrolysis to highly-coordinated conformational changes that result in a power-stroke motion, or "walking" of myosin. Communication between a set of residues must link the three functional regions of myosin and transduce energy: the catalytic ATP binding region, the lever arm, and the actin-binding domain. They are investigating which residues are likely to participate in allosteric communication pathways. The application is a collection of C++/QT code, suitable for reproducing the computational results of the paper. (PMID 17900617) In addition, they provide input and alignment information to reproduce Figure 3 (a key figure) in the paper. Examples provided will show users how to use AlloPathFinder with other protein families, assumed to exhibit an allosteric communication. To run the application a multiple sequence alignment of representative proteins from the protein family is required along with at least one protein structure.

http://ecoliwiki.net/colipedia/index.php/Welcome_to_EcoliWiki

A component of EcoliHub, EcoliWiki is a wiki-based system for finding, editing, and adding information about E. coli K-12 and other model organism strains of E. coli. EcoliWiki is being constructed to include information about bacteriophage, plasmids, and mobile genetic elements. Information should be easily accessible and correct, and users have the right to edit any information they feel is incorrect. Most of the E. coli information was initially seeded with a subset of information from parsing EcoCyc data dumps. For phage gamma and the F plasmid, Genbank accessions were converted to GFF, which was parsed into the appropriate tables. Other sources of content include: * user additions * monthly addition of annotations from EcoCyc * structural data from the PDB * domains and motif information from InterPro * various databases including EcoGene, RegulonDB, Genbank, GenoBase, ASAP * many many scientific papers EcoliWiki participates in the RefGenome project. EcoliWiki provides REST web services as part of the EcoliHub Web Services infrastructure project.
