ALCHEMY is a genotype calling algorithm for Affymetrix and Illumina products which is not based on clustering methods. Features include explicit handling of reduced heterozygosity due to inbreeding and accurate results with small sample sizes. ALCHEMY is a method for automated calling of diploid genotypes from raw intensity data produced by various high-throughput multiplexed SNP genotyping methods. It has been developed for and tested on Affymetrix GeneChip Arrays, Illumina GoldenGate, and Illumina Infinium based assays. Primary motivations for ALCHEMY''s development was the lack of available genotype calling methods which can perform well in the absence of heterozygous samples (due to panels of inbred lines being genotyped) or provide accurate calls with small sample batches. ALCHEMY differs from other genotype calling methods in that genotype inference is based on a parametric Bayesian model of the raw intensity data rather than a generalized clustering approach and the model incorporates population genetic principles such as Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium adjusted for inbreeding levels. ALCHEMY can simultaneously estimate individual sample inbreeding coefficients from the data and use them to improve statistical inference of diploid genotypes at individual SNPs. The main documentation for ALCHEMY is maintained on the sourceforge-hosted MediaWiki system. Features * Population genetic model based SNP genotype calling * Simultaneous estimation of per-sample inbreeding coefficients, allele frequencies, and genotypes * Bayesian model provides posterior probabilities of genotype correctness as quality measures * Growing number of scripts and supporting programs for validation of genotypes against control data and output reformating needs * Multithreaded program for parallel execution on multi-CPU/core systems * Non-clustering based methods can handle small sample sets for empirical optimization of sample preparation techniques and accurate calling of SNPs missing genotype classes ALCHEMY is written in C and developed on the GNU/Linux platform. It should compile on any current GNU/Linux distribution with the development packages for the GNU Scientific Library (gsl) and other development packages for standard system libraries. It may also compile and run on Mac OS X if gsl is installed.

http://www.genes2cognition.org/

A neuroscience research program that studies genes, the brain and behavior in an integrated manner, established to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of learning and memory, and shed light on the pathogenesis of disorders of cognition. Central to G2C investigations is the NMDA receptor complex (NRC/MASC), that is found at the synapses in the central nervous system which constitute the functional connections between neurons. Changes in the receptor and associated components are thought to be in a large part responsible for the phenomenon of synaptic plasticity, that may underlie learning and memory. G2C is addressing the function of synapse proteins using large scale approaches combining genomics, proteomics and genetic methods with electrophysiological and behavioral studies. This is incorporated with computational models of the organization of molecular networks at the synapse. These combined approaches provide a powerful and unique opportunity to understand the mechanisms of disease genes in behavior and brain pathology as well as provide fundamental insights into the complexity of the human brain. Additionally, Genes to Cognition makes available its biological resources, including gene-targeting vectors, ES cell lines, antibodies, and transgenic mice, generated for its phenotyping pipeline. The resources are freely-available to interested researchers.

http://nsr.bioeng.washington.edu/

Database of physiological, pharmacological, and pathological information on humans and other organisms and integration through computational modeling. Models include everything from diagrammatic schema, suggesting relationships among elements composing a system, to fully quantitative, computational models describing the behavior of physiological systems and an organism''s response to environmental change. Each mathematical model is an internally self-consistent summary of available information, and thereby defines a working hypothesis about how a system operates. Predictions from such models are subject to test, with new results leading to new models.BR /> A Tool developed for the NSR Physiome project is JSim, an open source, free software. JSim is a Java-based simulation system for building quantitative numeric models and analyzing them with respect to experimental reference data. JSim''s primary focus is in physiology and biomedicine, however its computational engine is quite general and applicable to a wide range of scientific domains. JSim models may intermix ODEs, PDEs, implicit equations, integrals, summations, discrete events and procedural code as appropriate. JSim''s model compiler can automatically insert conversion factors for compatible physical units as well as detect and reject unit unbalanced equations. JSim also imports the SBML and CellML model archival formats. All JSim models are open source. Goals of the Physiome Project: - To develop and database observations of physiological phenomenon and interpret these in terms of mechanism (a fundamentally reductionist goal). - To integrate experimental information into quantitative descriptions of the functioning of humans and other organisms (modern integrative biology glued together via modeling). - To disseminate experimental data and integrative models for teaching and research. - To foster collaboration amongst investigators worldwide, to speed up the discovery of how biological systems work. - To determine the most effective targets (molecules or systems) for therapy, either pharmaceutic or genomic. - To provide information for the design of tissue-engineered, biocompatible implants.

http://www.reciprocalnet.org/

Database of crystallographic information. Its membership includes crystallographic service facilities (that analyze crystals submitted by research chemists) located at major universities. These labs analyze anywhere from a few dozen to several hundred molecular structures each year and post the data online for the public to access. A distributed database engine takes care of shuttling this data across the Internet so that every structure can be located by the search engine. There may be a delay of a year or more between the time a structure is first analyzed and the time it finally becomes available for the public to see. This is due to intellectual property issues - the intervening time allows the chemists who first discovered the structure to publish it in a trade journal.

http://www.broadinstitute.org/annotation/genome/magnaporthe_comparative/MultiHome.html

The Magnaporthe comparative genomics database provides accesses to multiple fungal genomes from the Magnaporthaceae family to facilitate the comparative analysis. As part of the Broad Fungal Genome Initiative, the Magnaporthe comparative project includes the finished M. oryzae (formerly M. grisea) genome, as well as the draft assemblies of Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici and M. poae. It provides users the tools to BLAST search, browse genome regions (to retrieve DNA, find clones, and graphically view sequence regions), and provides gene indexes and genome statistics. We were funded to attempt 7x sequence coverage comprising paired end reads from plasmids, Fosmids and BACs. Our strategy involves Whole Genome Shotgun (WGS) sequencing, in which sequence from the entire genome is generated and reassembled. Our specific aims are as follows: 1. Generate and assemble sequence reads yielding 7X coverage of the Magnaporthe oryzae genome through whole genome shotgun sequencing. 2. Generate and incorporate BAC and Fosmid end sequences into the genome assembly to provide a paired-end of average every 2 kb. 3. Integrate the genome sequence with existing physical and genetic map information. 4. Perform automated annotation of the sequence assembly. 5. Distribute the sequence assembly and results of our annotation and analysis through a freely accessible, public web server and by deposition of the sequence assembly in GenBank.
