A database for maternal gene expression information for ascidia, colloquially known as sea squirts. Information available includes DNA sequences, expression patterns of ESTs, and cDNA data from uncleaved fertilized eggs. The goal is to utilize the database to understand molecular mechanisms of establishment of embryonic body plans of chordates and to understand evolution from invertebrates to vertebrates in the future.

It's strategy involves Whole Genome Shotgun (WGS) sequencing, in which sequence from the entire genome is generated and reassembled. This method is standard for microbial genome sequencing, and has been successfully applied to Drosophila. Neurospora is an ideal candidate for this approach because of the low repeat content of the genome. Neurospora crassa Database has expanded the scope of its database by including a mitochondrial annotation, incorporating information from the Neurospora compendium, and assigning NCU numbers to tRNA and rRNAs. They have improved the annotation process to predict untranslated regions and to reduce the number of spurious predictions. As a result, version 3 contains 9,826 genes, 794 fewer than version 2. During the initial phase of a WGS project they sequence both ends of the 4 kb inserts from a plasmid library prepared using randomly sheared and sized-selected DNA. The shotgun reads are assembled by recognizing overlapping regions of sequence and making use of the knowledge of the orientation and distance of the paired reads from each plasmid. Obtaining deep sequence coverage though high levels of sequence redundancy assures that the majority of the genome is represented in the initial assembly and that the consensus sequence is of high quality. Their approach toward the initial assembly was conservative, meaning they would rather fail to join sequence contigs that might overlap each other than risk making false joins between two closely related but non-overlapping genomic regions. Hence, the initial assembly contains many sequence contigs and over time these contigs will increase in size and decrease in number as they are joined together. After shotgun sequencing and assembly there was a second phase of sequencing in which additional sequence was obtained from specific regions that were missing from the original assembly or are recognized to be of low quality in the consensus. The Neurospora crassa sequencing project reflects a close collaboration between the Broad Institute and the Neurospora research community. Principal investigators include Bruce Birren and Chad Nusbaum from the Broad Institute, Matt Sachs at the Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology, Chuck Staben at the University of Kentucky and Jak Kinsey at the Fungal Genetics Stock Center at the University of Kansas Medical Center. In addition, we have a larger Advisory Board made up of a number of Neurospora researchers. Sponsors: They have been funded by the National Science Foundation to sequence the N. crassa genome and make the information publicly available.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23,2022. ATGC stands for Alignable Tight Genomic Cluster, which is cluster of closely related prokaryotic genomes. ATGC is the principal notion of this web resource. The purpose of this web resource is to prepare ATGC-derived data sets for a variety of research projects in functional and evolutionary genomics. Unique features of ATGC include: * Reliable identification of orthologs (high degree of similarity between the genomes in the set allow an extensive use of synteny in ortholog identification); * Fine granularity of protein classification (in comparisons of more distant genomes, proteins belonging to families of paralogs are often lumped into a singlegroup; under the ATGC approach, comparison of genomic sequences from highly similar genomes allows one to track each set of orthologs separately); * Relative rarity of changes of any kind (in sequence, genome organization and gene content) allows the use of parsimony-related methods of analysis.

http://cancer.sanger.ac.uk/cancergenome/projects/cosmic/

Database to store and display somatic mutation information and related details and contains information relating to human cancers. The mutation data and associated information is extracted from the primary literature. In order to provide a consistent view of the data a histology and tissue ontology has been created and all mutations are mapped to a single version of each gene. The data can be queried by tissue, histology or gene and displayed as a graph, as a table or exported in various formats.
Some key features of COSMIC are:
* Contains information on publications, samples and mutations. Includes samples which have been found to be negative for mutations during screening therefore enabling frequency data to be calculated for mutations in different genes in different cancer types.
* Samples entered include benign neoplasms and other benign proliferations, in situ and invasive tumours, recurrences, metastases and cancer cell lines.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 03, 2011. IT HAS BEEN REPLACED BY A NEW UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot ANNOTATION PROGRAM CALLED UniProt Chordata protein annotation program. The Human Proteome Initiative (HPI) aims to annotate all known human protein sequences, as well as their orthologous sequences in other mammals, according to the quality standards of UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot. In addition to accurate sequences, we strive to provide, for each protein, a wealth of information that includes the description of its function, domain structure, subcellular location, similarities to other proteins, etc. Although as complete as currently possible, the human protein set they provide is still imperfect, it will have to be reviewed and updated with future research results. They will also create entries for newly discovered human proteins, increase the number of splice variants, explore the full range of post-translational modifications (PTMs) and continue to build a comprehensive view of protein variation in the human population. The availability of the human genome sequence has enabled the exploration and exploitation of the human genome and proteome to begin. Research has now focused on the annotation of the genome and in particular of the proteome. With expert annotation extracted from the literature by biologists as the foundation, it has been possible to expand into the areas of data mining and automatic annotation. With further development and integration of pattern recognition methods and the application of alignments clustering, proteome analysis can now be provided in a meaningful way. These various approaches have been integrated to attach, extract and combine as much relevant information as possible to the proteome. This resource should be valuable to users from both research and industry. We maintain a file containing all human UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot entries. This file is updated at every biweekly release of UniProt and can be downloaded by FTP download, HTTP download or by using a mirroring program which automatically retrieves the file at regular intervals.
