This resource''s long-term goal is to develop informatics methodologies and tools that will increase the creativity and productivity of neuroscience investigators, as they work together to use shared human brain mapping data to generate and test ideas far beyond those pursued by the data''s originators. This resource currently has four major projects supporting this goal: * Database tools: The goal of the NeuroServ project is to provide neuroscience researchers with automated information management tools that reduce the effort required to manage, analyze, query, view, and share their imaging data. It currently manages both structural magnetic resonance image (MRI) datasets and diffusion tensor image (DTI) datasets. NeuroServ is fully web-enabled: data entry, query, processing, reporting, and administrative functions are performed by qualified users through a web browser. It can be used as a local laboratory repository, to share data on the web, or to support a large distributed consortium. NeuroServ is based on an industrial-quality query middleware engine MRALD. NeuroServ includes a specialized neuroimaging schema and over 40 custom Java Server Pages supporting data entry, query, and reporting to help manage and explore stored images. NeuroServ is written in Java for platform independence; it also utilizes several open source components * Data sharing: DataQuest is a collaborative forum to facilitate the sharing of neuroimaging data within the neuroscience community. By publishing summaries of existing datasets, DataQuest enables researchers to: # Discover what data is available for collaborative research # Advertise your data to other researchers for potential collaborations # Discover which researchers may have the data you need # Discover which researchers are interested in your data. * Image quality: The approach to assessing the inherent quality of an image is to measure how distorted the image is. Using what are referred to as no-reference or blind metrics, one can measure the degree to which an image is distorted. * Content-based image retrieval: NIRV (NeuroImagery Retrieval & Visualization) is a work environment for advanced querying over imagery. NIRV will have a Java-based front-end for users to issue queries, run processing algorithms, review results, visualize imagery and assess image quality. NIRV interacts with an image repository such as NeuroServ. Users can also register images and will soon be able to filter searches based on image quality.

http://research.nhgri.nih.gov/dog_genome/

The Dog Genome Project at the National Human Genome Research Institute is working to develop resources necessary to map and clone canine genes in an effort to utilize dogs as a model system for genetics and cancer research. The US National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) agreed to fund a project to sequence the entire genome of a boxer dog named Tasha, because it recognized the value of the dog as an unrivaled model for the study of human disease. The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) led the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) contribution to the International Human Genome Project, which had as its primary goal the sequencing of the human genome. This project was successfully completed in April 2003. Now, the NHGRI's mission has expanded to encompass a broad range of studies aimed at understanding the structure and function of the human genome and its role in health and disease. To that end NHGRI supports the development of resources and technology that will accelerate genome research and its application to human health. A critical part of the NHGRI mission continues to be the study of the ethical, legal and social implications (ELSI) of genome research. NHGRI also supports the training of investigators and the dissemination of genome information to the public and to health professionals.

DoTS (Database Of Transcribed Sequences) is a human and mouse transcript index created from all publicly available transcript sequences. The input sequences are clustered and assembled to form the DoTS Consensus Transcripts that comprise the index. These transcripts are assigned stable identifiers of the form DT.123456 (and are often referred to as dots). The transcripts are in turn clustered to form putative DoTS Genes. These are assigned stable identifiers of the form DG.1234356. As of September 1, 2004, the DoTS annotation team has manually annotated 43,164 human and 78,054 mouse DoTS Transcripts (DTs), corresponding to 3,939 human and 7,752 mouse DoTS Genes (DGs). Use the manually annotated gene query to see the DoTS Transcripts that have been manually annotated. The focus of the DoTS project is integrating the various types of data (e.g., EST sequences, genomic sequence, expression data, functional annotation) in a structured manner which facilitates sophisticated queries that are otherwise not easy to perform. DoTS is built on the GUS Platform which includes a relational database that uses controlled vocabularies and ontologies to ensure that biologically meaningful queries can be posed in a uniform fashion. An easy way to start using the site is to search for DoTS Transcripts using an existing cDNA or mRNA sequence. Click on the BLAST tab at the top of the page and enter your sequence in the form provided. All the transcripts with significant sequence similarity to your query sequence will be displayed. Or use one of the provided queries to retrieve transcripts using a number of criteria. These queries are listed on the query page, which can also be reached by clicking on the tab marked query at the top of the page. Finally, the boolean query page allows these queries to be combined in a variety of ways. Sponsors: Funding provided by -NIH grant RO1-HG-01539-03 -DOE grant DE-FG02-00ER62893

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/IPI

IPI provides a top level guide to the main databases (UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot, UniProtKB/TrEMBL, RefSeq, Ensembl, TAIR, H-InvDB, Vega) that describe the proteomes of higher eukaryotic organisms. IPI: :1. effectively maintains a database of cross references between the primary data sources :2. provides minimally redundant yet maximally complete sets of proteins for featured species (one sequence per transcript) :3. maintains stable identifiers (with incremental versioning) to allow the tracking of sequences in IPI between IPI releases. IPI is updated monthly in accordance with the latest data released by the primary data sources. As previously announced, the closure of IPI has been proposed for some time. Replacement data sets are now available through UniProt for human and mouse; sets for the other species contained within IPI are expected to be included as part of the UniProt release 2011_07. To allow users time to transition to using the new UniProt data sets, IPI releases will continue to be produced throughout the summer. The final release will be made in September 2011. Thereafter, the IPI website will cease to be maintained, although previous releases of the dataset will continue to be available from the FTP site. We would like to thank our users for their support and interest in this service.

http://sonorus.princeton.edu/hefalmp/

HEFalMp (Human Experimental/FunctionAL MaPper) is a tool developed by Curtis Huttenhower in Olga Troyanskaya's lab at Princeton University. It was created to allow interactive exploration of functional maps. Functional mapping analyzes portions of these networks related to user-specified groups of genes and biological processes and displays the results as probabilities (for individual genes), functional association p-values (for groups of genes), or graphically (as an interaction network). HEFalMp contains information from roughly 15,000 microarray conditions, over 15,000 publications on genetic and physical protein interactions, and several types of DNA and protein sequence analyses and allows the exploration of over 200 H. sapiens process-specific functional relationship networks, including a global, process-independent network capturing the most general functional relationships. Looking to download functional maps? Keep an eye on the bottom of each page of results: every functional map of any kind is generated with a Download link at the bottom right. Most functional maps are provided as tab-delimited text to simplify downstream processing; graphical interaction networks are provided as Support Vector Graphics files, which can be viewed using the Adobe Viewer, any recent version of Firefox, or the excellent open source Inkscape tool.
