http://toppcluster.cchmc.org/

A tool for performing multi-cluster gene functional enrichment analyses on large scale data (microarray experiments with many time-points, cell-types, tissue-types, etc.). It facilitates co-analysis of multiple gene lists and yields as output a rich functional map showing the shared and list-specific functional features. The output can be visualized in tabular, heatmap or network formats using built-in options as well as third-party software. It uses the hypergeometric test to obtain functional enrichment achieved via the gene list enrichment analysis option available in ToppGene.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. The STACKdb is knowledgebase generated by processing EST and mRNA sequences obtained from GenBank through a pipeline consisting of masking, clustering, alignment and variation analysis steps. The STACK project aims to generate a comprehensive representation of the sequence of each of the expressed genes in the human genome by extensive processing of gene fragments to make accurate alignments, highlight diversity and provide a carefully joined set of consensus sequences for each gene. The STACK project is comprised of the STACKdb human gene index, a database of virtual human transcripts, as well as stackPACK, the tools used to create the database. STACKdb is organized into 15 tissue-based categories and one disease category. STACK is a tool for detection and visualization of expressed transcript variation in the context of developmental and pathological states. The data system organizes and reconstructs human transcripts from available public data in the context of expression state. The expression state of a transcript can include developmental state, pathological association, site of expression and isoform of expressed transcript. STACK consensus transcripts are reconstructed from clusters that capture and reflect the growing evidence of transcript diversity. The comprehensive capture of transcript variants is achieved by the use of a novel clustering approach that is tolerant of sub-sequence diversity and does not rely on pairwise alignment. This is in contrast with other gene indexing projects. STACK is generated at least four times a year and represents the exhaustive processing of all publicly available human EST data extracted from GenBank. This processed information can be explored through 15 tissue-specific categories, a disease-related category and a whole-body index

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. The project aims to apply genome mapping research to sheep, utilizing previous research in sheep (in other countries) and in other species (in the UK and abroad) to the benefit of the UK sheep industry. The project itself uses existing breeding structures, knowledge of the sheep genome and experimental resources. It has three main aims: i) To use the Suffolk, Texel and Charollais Sire Referencing Schemes to detect and verify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for growth and carcass composition traits ii) To investigate candidate genes and/or chromosomal regions for associations with production traits. iii) To investigate approaches for optimizing future genotyping strategies within the sire referencing schemes for practical and cost effective application of marker-assisted selection By using commercial breeding populations for the research, immediate application of beneficial results is possible. Potential benefits include increased genetic progress through marker assisted selection which utilizes the genotype information, correction of possible parentage errors (ultimately leading to additional genetic progress) and opportunities for using marker information for product certification. The project will benefit the UK sheep industry by the use of Marker Assisted Selection (MAS) utilizing QTL or gene variants identified in the project. Additional benefits may arise from parentage verification and correction of errors e.g. misallocation of lamb to ewe. In the longer term, opportunities may exist to use markers for quality control, tracing products to their source. The major advantage of the design of this project is that the results are immediately applicable to the breeding schemes within which the QTLs and/or genes are detected. The time lag in the application of the results that is often seen with experimental populations is minimized. The project requires close involvement with the Sire Reference Schemes, in return for their assistance the results have immediate benefit to animals within these groups.

http://snpeffect.vib.be/

A database for phenotyping human single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)that primarily focuses on the molecular characterization and annotation of disease and polymorphism variants in the human proteome. They provide a detailed variant analysis using their tools such as: * TANGO to predict aggregation prone regions * WALTZ to predict amylogenic regions * LIMBO to predict hsp70 chaperone binding sites * FoldX to analyse the effect on structure stability Further, SNPeffect holds per-variant annotations on functional sites, structural features and post-translational modification. The meta-analysis tool enables scientists to carry out a large scale mining of SNPeffect data and visualize the results in a graph. It is now possible to submit custom single protein variants for a detailed phenotypic analysis., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://www.GeneWeaver.org

Freely accessible phenotype-centered database with integrated analysis and visualization tools. It combines diverse data sets from multiple species and experiment types, and allows data sharing across collaborative groups or to public users. It was conceived of as a tool for the integration of biological functions based on the molecular processes that subserved them. From these data, an empirically derived ontology may one day be inferred. Users have found the system valuable for a wide range of applications in the arena of functional genomic data integration.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 15, 2013. Database covering a range of plant pathogenic oomycetes, fungi and bacteria primarily those under study at Virginia Bioinformatics Institute. The data comes from different sources and has genomes of 3 oomycetes pathogens: Phytophthora sojae, Phytophthora ramorum and Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis. The genome sequences (95 MB for P.sojae and 65 MB for P.ramorum) were annotated with approximately 19,000 and approximately 16,000 gene models, respectively. Two different statistical methods were used to validate these gene models, Fickett''''s and a log-likelihood method. Functional annotation of the gene models is based on results from BlastX and InterProScan screens. From the InterProScan results, putative functions to 17,694 genes in P.sojae and 14,700 genes in P.ramorum could be assigned. An easy-to-use genome browser was created to view the genome sequence data, which opens to detailed annotation pages for each gene model. A community annotation interface is available for registered community members to add or edit annotations. There are approximately 1600 gene models for P.sojae and approximately 700 models for P.ramorum that have already been manually curated. A toolkit is provided as an additional resource for users to perform a variety of sequence analysis jobs.
