Distributed Annotation System Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Distributed Annotation System (RRID:SCR_008427) | data or information resource, narrative resource, software resource, standard specification | The Distributed Annotation System (DAS) defines a communication protocol used to exchange annotations on genomic or protein sequences. It is motivated by the idea that such annotations should not be provided by single centralized databases, but should instead be spread over multiple sites. Data distribution, performed by DAS servers, is separated from visualization, which is done by DAS clients. The advantages of this system are that control over the data is retained by data providers, data is freed from the constraints of specific organisations and the normal issues of release cycles, API updates and data duplication are avoided. DAS is a client-server system in which a single client integrates information from multiple servers. It allows a single machine to gather up sequence annotation information from multiple distant web sites, collate the information, and display it to the user in a single view. Little coordination is needed among the various information providers. DAS is heavily used in the genome bioinformatics community. Over the last years we have also seen growing acceptance in the protein sequence and structure communities. A DAS-enabled website or application can aggregate complex and high-volume data from external providers in an efficient manner. For the biologist, this means the ability to plug in the latest data, possibly including a user''s own data. For the application developer, this means protection from data format changes and the ability to add new data with minimal development cost. Here are some examples of DAS-enabled applications or websites for end users: :- Dalliance Experimental Web/Javascript based Genome Viewer :- IGV Integrative Genome Viewer java based browser for many genomes :- Ensembl uses DAS to pull in genomic, gene and protein annotations. It also provides data via DAS. :- Gbrowse is a generic genome browser, and is both a consumer and provider of DAS. :- IGB is a desktop application for viewing genomic data. :- SPICE is an application for projecting protein annotations onto 3D structures. :- Dasty2 is a web-based viewer for protein annotations :- Jalview is a multiple alignment editor. :- PeppeR is a graphical viewer for 3D electron microscopy data. :- DASMI is an integration portal for protein interaction data. :- DASher is a Java-based viewer for protein annotations. :- EpiC presents structure-function summaries for antibody design. :- STRAP is a STRucture-based sequence Alignment Program. Hundreds of DAS servers are currently running worldwide, including those provided by the European Bioinformatics Institute, Ensembl, the Sanger Institute, UCSC, WormBase, FlyBase, TIGR, and UniProt. For a listing of all available DAS sources please visit the DasRegistry. Sponsors: The initial ideas for DAS were developed in conversations with LaDeana Hillier of the Washington University Genome Sequencing Center. | annotation, database, software, genomic, protein, sequence, visualization, data, client-server, integration, bioinformatics, genome, structure, data integration |

RMA Express Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
RMA Express (RRID:SCR_008549) | software resource | RMAExpress is a standalone GUI program for Windows (and Linux) to compute gene expression summary values for Affymetrix Genechip data using the Robust Multichip Average expression summary and to carry out quality assessment using probe-level metrics. It does not require R nor is it dependent on any component of the BioConductor project. If focuses on processing 3'' IVT expression arrays, exon and WT gene arrays. What is RMA? RMA is the Robust Multichip Average. It consists of three steps: a background adjustment, quantile normalization (see the Bolstad et al reference) and finally summarization. Some references (currently published) for the RMA methodology are: Bolstad, B.M., Irizarry R. A., Astrand, M., and Speed, T.P. (2003), A Comparison of Normalization Methods for High Density Oligonucleotide Array Data Based on Bias and Variance. Bioinformatics 19(2):185-193 Supplemental information Rafael. A. Irizarry, Benjamin M. Bolstad, Francois Collin, Leslie M. Cope, Bridget Hobbs and Terence P. Speed (2003), Summaries of Affymetrix GeneChip probe level data Nucleic Acids Research 31(4):e15 Irizarry, RA, Hobbs, B, Collin, F, Beazer-Barclay, YD, Antonellis, KJ, Scherf, U, Speed, TP (2002) Exploration, Normalization, and Summaries of High Density Oligonucleotide Array Probe Level Data. Accepted for publication in Biostatistics. [Abstract, PDF, PS, Complementary Color Figures-PDF, Software] What do I need? You will need the appropriate CDF and CEL files for your dataset. For Exon and WT Gene arrays, the PGF and CLF should be used instead of the CDF file to build a CDFRME file. The process for doing this is explained in the user manual. Some pre-built CDFRME files are also available. CDFRME files HuEx_CDFRME.zip (95.9MB) HuGene_CDFRME.zip (5.5MB) MoEx_CDFRME.zip (79.6MB) MoGene_CDFRME.zip (6.3MB) RaEx_CDFRME.zip (48.4MB) RaGene_CDFRME.zip (5.7MB) Can I use affy/BioConductor instead? Of course. Hypothetically you will get the same results from both places, provided you have consistent settings in affy/BioConductor and RMAExpress. Some people prefer the power and flexibility of R and others like the point and click simplicity of a GUI. RMAExpress caters to the second option. Since RMAExpress outputs the computed expression values to a text file, you may of course load the expression measures into R and use features of Bioconductor for the analysis of your gene expression values. You can of course open the results file in any other application that supports importing plain text files. Will I get the same results as I would using affy/Bioconductor? Yes. The results from RMAExpress should be consistent. What are the machine requirements? A good rule of thumb is the more RAM you have the better. I would recommend at least 1GB, though 512MB will work in most situations. At this point the program has been tested using Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Linux. Most recently I have had a report of over 10,000 arrays processed in a single session. Can I do any quality assessment? Yes, store the residuals when you compute the expression values. Then you may examine chip pseudo-images of the residuals. Note that high positive residuals are colored increasingly read and low negative residuals are colored increasingly blue. To better interpret these images and gain a better feel for what is typical you may visit the PLM Image Gallery where images for a number of different datasets are shown. Access to the NUSE and RLE quality assessment metrics is also provided. How do I download and install it? Click here for the current release Windows version. Use the installer to install the program. The current release version number is 1.0 (released June 29, 2008). A pre-built linux version is not currently available, but you may build it using the source code. You can download pre-release versions from the following table (the release versions will be more stable, the development versions may have features that are incomplete or will be removed or altered before the next release was supported by the PGA U01 HL66583. | nif-0000-31409 | SCR_008549 | SciCrunch Registry | RMAX | 2026-11-07 11:56:36 | 103 | |||||||||||

Rutgers University Quantitative Neuroscience Laboratory Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Rutgers University Quantitative Neuroscience Laboratory (RRID:SCR_008541) | data or information resource, database, laboratory portal, organization portal, portal | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. The brain is made of billions of neurons, which together form the world''s most powerful information-processing machine. Despite decades of research, the fundamental principle by which these cells work together is still unknown. Many theories for brain function have been proposed over the last century. But only in the last few years has it become possible to record simultaneously from large enough numbers of neurons to put these theories to the test experimentally. This is an unprecedented opportunity, but it opens up a new question: how do we go from the gigabytes of experimental data that we now have, to concise conclusions about the function of the brain? The data processing methods traditionally used in neuroscience are not sophisticated enough to exploit this new flood of information. Fortunately, modern statistics and machine learning theory is making great strides in precisely the type of techniques needed to process these large multivariate databases. By applying these methods to neuronal data, we can now test long-standing hypotheses about brain function. The Cell Assembly The main focus of our research is an experimental search for cell assemblies. Before describing what a cell assembly is, it will be useful to describe what it is not. The brain is often thought of as a feed-forward system. In this scheme, sensory information is processed by successive levels of cortical analyzers, each of which transforms the results of previous levels, until sensory information is in a suitable form to guide the animals behavior. In support of this idea, the pattern of connections in the cortex does appear to respect a hierarchical organization, with the output of low-level areas corresponding to a single sensory modality being integrated into high-level multi-modal areas. Responses in higher-level sensory areas appear to have more complex responses to sensory stimuli, in agreement with increased abstraction as the hierarchy is traversed. However, there are several levels at which this feed-forward picture is incomplete. At the circuit diagram level, there more connections projecting across and down the hierarchy, than there are feed-forward projections. What''s more, if information were processed in a strictly feed-forward manner, one would expect a neuron to respond identically to repeated presentations of the same sensory stimulus. Although this is a fairly good approximation in primary sensory areas of cortex, in high-level structures responses are often more variable than expected from strict sensory control. Finally, although feed-forward processing can describe how an animal could perform simple stimulus-response behaviors, it cannot explain more complex top-down behaviors such as memory or thought. An alternative point of view, put forward over 50 years ago by Canadian psychologist Donald Hebb, holds that recurrent and feedback connections play an essential role in brain function. The principal actor in this view is the cell assembly, an anatomically distributed subset of neurons, amongst which mutually excitatory connections have been strengthened by repeated co-activation, allowing the assembly to later maintain its activity through reverberation without direct sensory stimulation. This theory allows for sensory-response behavior, and also behavior resulting purely from internally generated cognitive activity, by the sequential activation of a series of assemblies, leading in turn to the production of motion. In our research, we search for signatures of assembly activity in simultaneous recordings from multiple neurons, and aim to characterize the properties of assembly activity in ways not possible from theory alone.

Gene Relationships Across Implicated Loci Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
Gene Relationships Across Implicated Loci (RRID:SCR_008537) | analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource, resource, service resource | A tool to examine relationships between genes in different disease associated loci. Given several genomic regions or SNPs associated with a particular phenotype or disease, GRAIL looks for similarities in the published scientific text among the associated genes. As input, users can upload either (1) SNPs that have emerged from a genome-wide association study or (2) genomic regions that have emerged from a linkage scan or are associated common or rare copy number variants. SNPs should be listed according to their rs#''s and must be listed in HapMap. Genomic Regions are specified by a user-defined identifier, the chromosome that it is located on, and the start and end base-pair positions for the region. Grail can take two sets of inputs - Query regions and Seed regions. Seed regions are definitely associated SNPs or genomic regions, and Query regions are those regions that the user is attempting to evaluate agains them. In many applications the two sets are identical. Based on textual relationships between genes, GRAIL assigns a p-value to each region suggesting its degree of functional connectivity, and picks the best candidate gene. GRAIL is developed by Soumya Raychaudhuri in the labs of David Altshuler and Mark Daly at the Center for Human Genetic Research of Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, and the Broad Institute. GRAIL is described in manuscript, currently in preparation. | software, text mining, genotype, phenotype, snp |

GEDI Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
GEDI (RRID:SCR_008530) | GEDI | software resource | A program that opens a new perspective to the analysis of microarray data (e.g., gene expression profiling). Unlike traditional gene clustering software, GEDI is primarily sample-oriented rather than gene-oriented. By treating each high-dimensional sample, such as one microarray experiment, as an object, it accentuates the genome-wide response of a tissue or a patient and treats it as an integrated biological entity. Hence, GEDI honors the new spirit of a system-level approach in biology. Yet, it also allows the researcher to quickly zoom-in from global patterns onto individual genes that exhibit interesting expression behavior and retrieve gene-specific information. Therefore, GEDI unites a novel holistic perspective with the traditional gene-centered approach in molecular biology. GEDI allows experimental biologists or clinicians with no bioinformatics background to efficiently and intuitively navigate through a large number of expression profiles, each with a memorizable face, and inspect, group and collect them, like managing a stack of baseball cards. DYNAMIC ANALYSIS: The unique strength of GEDI, for which GEDI was originally developed, is that it can display the results of parallel monitoring of multiple high-dimensional time courses, such as the comparison of expression profile time evolution in response to a series of drugs. GEDI creates animated graphics showing how 10,000s of genes change their expression over time in response to 100s of separately tested drugs. STATIC ANAYLSIS: The signature graphical output of GEDI, the GEDI-mosaics provide a unique, one-glance visual engram that gives each microarray or other high-dimensional dataset a face. A characteristic of GEDI''s analysis is that it does not prejudicate any particular structure in the data (such as clusters or hierarchical organization). Thus, it allows the researcher to use human pattern recognition to perform a global first-level analysis of the data. Sponsor.

This work focuses on the composition and stability of the intestinal bacteria in older Irish adults. Read the paper here. Would you like to be part of ELDERMET? We are currently looking for people, aged 65 years or older, living in the community. All we ask is that you live in the Cork area, or are willing to travel to Cork, and have recently (within the last two/three weeks) taken any kind of antibiotic. It doesnt matter if you are still taking the antibiotic, as long as the finishing date isnt more than four weeks before your first visit to ELDERMET. ELDERMET Objectives To assess the composition of the faecal microbiota of elderly volunteers in the Irish population, using state-of-the-art molecular techniques. To correlate diversity, composition, and metabolic potential of the faecal microbial metagenome with health, diet and lifestyle indices that are a) likely to be influenced by the microbiota or b) to influence the microbiota. To develop recommendations for specific dietary ingredients, foodstuffs, functional foods and/or dietary supplements, that will improve the health of elderly consumers. To provide evidence-based recommendations for prospective studies to determine the molecular mechanisms for health improvements promoted by specific food ingredients that modulate components of the microbiota. ELDERMET Rationale The human intestinal microbiota is made up of approximately 1000 genetically unique organisms (phylotypes ) [1]. The bacteria present in the intestine make an important contribution to: metabolism executed in the gut [2] health, in diverse activites from pain perception [3] to cognitive function [4]. There is an increasing body of evidence linking alterations in the human gut microbiota with Inflammatory Bowel Disease [5, 6] and Irritable Bowel Syndrome [7]. The changing pattern of the gut microbiota in elderly subjects [8, 9] may be linked to host changes such as immunosenescence, increased susceptibility to disease and potentially systemic effects. The composition of the intestinal microbiota may be modulated by dietary components including prebiotics [10]. ELDERMET will determine the baseline composition of the gut microbiota of several hundred elderly Irish subjects using a combination of traditional culutre and molecular (culture-independent) methodologies. ELDERMET will explore potential correlations between microbiota composition and a range of health indices; cross-referencing data to dietary intake. Data will be analyzed in the context of the related FHRI projects in Nutrigenomics, Food Consumption, Food Safety, and Diet-Health. ELDERMET will provide recommendations to all stakeholders (including health practitioners and the health service, the food industry and the general public) on how to improve health based on defined modifications to dietary intake.

CGEMS (RRID:SCR_008445) | CGEMS | data or information resource, portal, topical portal | The project began as a pilot study to identify inherited genetic susceptibility to prostate and breast cancer. CGEMS has developed into a robust research program involving genome-wide association studies (GWASs) for a number of cancers to identify common genetic variants that affect a person''s risk of developing cancer. In collaboration with extramural scientists, NCI''s Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) has carried out genome-wide scans for breast, prostate, pancreatic, and lung cancers, while a GWAS of bladder cancer is currently underway. By making the data available to both intramural and extramural research scientists, as well as those in the private sector through rapid posting, NIH can leverage its resources to ensure that the dramatic advances in genomics are incorporated into rigorous population-based studies. Ultimately, findings from these studies may yield new preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic interventions for cancer.

Program DynaFit (RRID:SCR_008444) | software resource | Program DynaFit Analysis of (bio)chemical kinetics and equilibria Welcome to the DynaFit home page. Purpose Symbolic Notation Bibliographic Reference Numerical Methods Minimum System Requirements Purpose The main purpose of the program DynaFit is to perform nonlinear least-squares regression of chemical kinetic, enzyme kinetic, or ligand-receptor binding data. The experimental data can be either initial reaction velocities in dependence on the concentration of varied species (e.g., inhibitor concentration vs. velocity), or the reaction progress curves (e.g., time vs. absorbance). Symbolic Notation The main advantage in using the program DynaFit is in the ability to characterize the (bio)chemical reacting system in terms of symbolic, or stoichiometric, equations. For example, the ``slow, tight'''' inhibition of a dissociative dimeric enzyme is described by the following text: Monomer Monomer <==> Enzyme : k1 k2 Enzyme Inhibitor <==> Complex : k3 k4 Enzyme Substrate <==> ReactiveX : k5 k6 ReactiveX --> Product Enzyme : k7 k8 The names of chemical species (Monomer, Enzyme, etc.) are entirely arbitrary and can be freely chosen by the investigator. Bibliographic Reference If you publish any results obtained by using DYNAFIT, plase cite the following reference: Kuzmic, P. (1996) Anal. Biochem. 237, 260-273. Program DYNAFIT for the Analysis of Enzyme Kinetic Data: Application to HIV Proteinase ABSTRACT A computer program with the code name DYNAFIT was developed for fitting either the initial velocities, or the time-course of enzyme reactions, to an arbitrary molecular mechanism represented symbolically by a set of chemical equations. Seven numerical tests and five graphical tests are applied to judge the goodness of fit. Experimental data on the inhibition of the dissociative dimeric proteinase from HIV were used in four test examples. A set of initial velocities was analyzed to see if a tight-binding inhibitor could bind to the HIV proteinase monomer. Three different sets of progress curves were analyzed (i) to determine the kinetic properties of an irreversible inhibitor; (ii) to investigate the dissociation and denaturation mechanism for the protease dimer; and (iii) to investigate the inhibition mechanism for a transient inhibitor. See a MEDLINE abstract with related references concerning the kinetics of HIV-1 protease. Numerical Methods The nonlinear regression module uses the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm [1]. The time-course of (bio)chemical reactions is computed by the numerical integration of simultaous first-order ordinary differential equations, using the Livermore Solver of ODe Systems (LSODE, [2]). The composition of complex mixtures at equilibrium (e.g., in the concentration jump experiment where a complex mixture is incubated prior to the addition of a reagent) is computed by solving simultaneous nonlinear algebraic equations, namely, the mass balance equations for the component species, by using the multidimensional Newton-Raphson method [3].
