ERIC is a resource of annotated enterobacterial genomes. Information is available and accessed through a open web portal uniting biological data and analysis tools. ERIC contains information on Escherichia, Shigella, Salmonella, Yersinia, and other microorgansims. ERIC has recently been moved over to PATRIC: The PATRIC BRC is now responsible for all bacterial species in the NIAID Category A-C Priority Pathogen lists for biodefense research, and pathogens causing emerging/reemerging infectious diseases. For ERIC users, we understand that the resource was valuable to your work. As such, we will be doing our very best to create a useful PATRIC resource to continue supporting your work. We realize that the transition will cause disruptions. However, it is a priority for us to work with established BRC users and communities to identify and prioritize our transition efforts. We have concentrated on the transfer of genomic data for this initial release. We anticipate adding new data, tools, and website features over the next several months. We look forward to working with you during the next 5 years., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://www.repairgenes.org/index.shtml

The aim of the repairGenes site is to be a source of information about DNA repair genes and a useful resource for research on DNA repair. At the moment, the site contains information about a number of DNA repair genes from a set of selected species. The information is organized by organism and by biological process term as defined by the Gene Ontology (GO) project. The coverage of DNA repair genes is not complete, but hopefully it satisfies to demonstrate the concept and generate ideas for future versions of the system. At present, the raw data about DNA repair genes is extracted from the SWISS-PROT database, and categorized using the GO system. SWISS-PROT entries are being annotated by the Gene Ontology Annotation project at EBI. GOA is an ongoing project which will become more complete with time. As more data is released, this will be fed into repairGenes to keep it up-to-date. In future versions, the user will be able to search freely among organisms and categories of repair genes, enabling easy comparisons between species. For a taste of this, please have a look at the overview of repair genes from five major organisms. The amount of information in the system will be increased and the quality will be improved in the future. So will the features of the system.

The UW Integrated Brain Project is one project within the national Human Brain Project, a national multi-agency effort to develop informatics tools for managing the exploding amount of information that is accumulating about the human brain. The objective of the UW Integrated Brain Project effort is to organize and integrate distributed functional information about the brain around the structural information framework that is the long term goal of our work. This application therefore extends the utility of the Digital Anatomist Project by using it to organize non-structural information. The initial driving neuroscience problem that is being addressed is the management, visualization and analysis of cortical language mapping data. In recent years, advances in imaging technology such as PET and functional MRI have allowed researchers to observe areas of the cortex that are activated when the subject performs language tasks. These advances have greatly accelerated the amount of data available about human language, but have also emphasized the need to organize and integrate the sometimes contradictory sources of data, in order to develop theories about language organization. The hypothesis is that neuroanatomy is the common substrate on which the diverse kinds of data can be integrated. A result of the work done by this project is a set of software tools for generating a 3-D reconstruction of the patient''s own brain from MRI, for mapping functional data to this reconstruction, for normalizing individual anatomy by warping to a canonical brain atlas and by annotating data with terms from an anatomy ontology, for managing individual lab data in local laboratory information systems, for integrating and querying data across separate data management systems, and for visualizing the integrated results. Sponsors: This Human Brain Project research is funded jointly by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, the National Institute of Mental Health, and the National Institute on Aging.

Launched in 2004, the HIV Guide is a single disease resource, with two main parts: the HIV database, which is accessed by searching on diagnosis, drug name, pathogen, or management or by accessing the resistance tool, and there are also browsable areas of the site, which include news, features, continuing medical education programs and other types of additional readings and information. Guides are authored by academic clinicians and subject to rigorous peer review. You may browse the guide by: Diagnosis Covering opportunistic infections, malignancies, and complications of therapy. Drugs Includes indications, dosing, drug interactions, and author recommendations. Pathogen - Describes microbiology, clinical syndromes, and therapy. Management Including antiretroviral therapy guidelines and strategies. Resistance Tool Provides up-to-date interpretation of genotypic resistance test results. Whether searching for a drug, a pathogen, a diagnosis, or a management issue, your search results will be delivered in a concise and standard form designed to give you the most clinically useful information first, with the option to go deeper if you choose. If you search by diagnosis, you will receive a page listing points covering establishment of a diagnosis, related pathogens, treatment recommendations, issues to consider on follow up, references and more. At each step, we provide you immediately with the information you need to treat the diagnosis and give you the option to read more or more deeply if you choose. On the diagnosis page, you are also provided with links to the information sheet for each drug that may be prescribed, and if you indicate which drug you intend to use, you will be provided with relevant drug selected comments. If you search by drug, you will receive a page listing FDA indications, usual adult dosing, adverse drug reactions, drug interactions, spectrum, and forms. You are also able to access full pharmacological information (mechanism, absorption, Cmax, volume of distribution, protein binding, metabolism/excretion, t _, dosing for glomerular filtration of 50-80, dosing for glomerular filtration of 10-50, dosing for glomerular filtration of <10 ml/min, dosing in hemodialysis, dosing in peritoneal dialysis, dosing in cavh, dosing for decreased hepatic function, pregnancy risk, and breast feeding compatibility). If you search by pathogen, you will receive a page covering the microbiology, clinical relevance, sites of infection, drug selected comments, other information and references. You are also provided with links to information for each drug that may be prescribed, and if you indicate which drug you intend to use, you will be provided with the drug selected comments for that choice. If you search by management, you will receive a page listing definition, indications, and clinical recommendations and additional details, including references. If you click on more wherever it appears on a page, you will find more detailed material about the topic. In addition, the HIV Guide homepage contains a Features section and Literature Review that contain synopses and articles about pertinent topics. The Publications section also provides .pdf versions of the Hopkins HIV Report. Prices represent the cost per unit specified, reflecting the Average Wholesale Price (AWP). AWP prices are taken from the Red Book, manufacturer information, and the McKesson database. These prices are updated every six months. We have listed up to 10 FDA-approved indications for uses of drugs. Though in some cases more may exist, for brevity and formatting issues authors and editors have chosen what they deem the most important. Also listed are disease states for which a drug may be likely prescribed regardless of FDA approval status (see Non-FDA approved uses). The HIV Guide is primarily focused on adult care but does cover issues of perinatal transmission. The material presented on this site represents the considered opinion of the Hopkins expert listed as the author of the module as of the date indicated. The reference section contains an annotated list of the articles that the author considers to be most relevant to the topic. Where authoritative guidelines exist, such as CDC, IDSA or Medical Letter guidelines, they are referenced and discussed along with the author''s recommendations presented.

Major objectives of IPP include the establishment of a broadly applicable platform of routine methods for the analysis of protein interaction networks in bio-medical research. A multidisciplinary approach will address; * their validation by cell biological, biochemical and biophysical methods. * their collection in a new type of public database. * their exploitation and use for in silico simulations of protein-interaction networks. The innovations generated in IPP will provide the basis for an efficient analysis and systems modeling of fundamental biological processes in health and disease. It will develop novel technology, including a high-end mass spectrometer with extremely large dynamic range, high-density peptide arrays, and improved visualization technology for light and electron microscopy. Additionally, the novel technologies will be validated with selected model systems of high relevance to medicine and biotechnology. Extensive bioinformatics support is a key element in the project to cope with the massive increase in experimental data on protein interactions obtained using the novel technologies. In particular, the efficient integration of disparate data sets represents a key challenge in proteomics and functional genomics. Therefore, the consortium includes the creator of the only European protein-interactions database, MINT. The multi-disciplinary efforts required in the scientific program of IPP are organized into four sub-projects (SP): * SP1: Tools for interaction analysis - SP1 is dedicated to the development of innovative proteomics technology to map protein-interaction networks and their cellular topology for the interaction analyses in SP2 and SP3. * SP2: Identification of interaction partners for protein domains - SP2 will generate (high throughput) data for important protein-protein interactions defined by bioinformatics and biomedical interest and by SP3, utilizing technology developed in SP1. * SP3: Functional analysis of interactions - SP3 focuses on the validation of technologies and tools developed in SP1. It will perform functional analyses of protein-interactions in medically and biochemically relevant prokaryotic and eukaryotic (mammalian) model systems. * SP4: Interactome database and modelling - SP4 provides the required bioinformatics infrastructure for the project, comprising the improvement of the public MINT database for the collection and dissemination of the interactome data; modelling and simulation of protein-interaction networks characterised in SP2 and SP3; and the dissemination of the technology developments to the scientific community.
