MIPS Ustilago maydis Database Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
MIPS Ustilago maydis Database (RRID:SCR_007563) | data or information resource, database | The MIPS Ustilago maydis Genome Database aims to present information on the molecular structure and functional network of the entirely sequenced, filamentous fungus Ustilago maydis. The underlying sequence is the initial release of the high quality draft sequence of the Broad Institute. The goal of the MIPS database is to provide a comprehensive genome database in the Genome Research Environment in parallel with other fungal genomes to enable in depth fungal comparative analysis. The specific aims are to: 1. Generate and assemble Whole Genome Shotgun sequence reads yielding 10X coverage of the U. maydis genome 2. Integrate the genomic sequence assembly with physical maps generated by Bayer CropScience 3. Perform automated annotation of the sequence assembly 4. Align the strain 521 assembly with the FB1 assembly provided by Exelixis 5. Release the sequence assembly and results of our annotation and analysis to public Ustilago maydis is a basidiomycete fungal pathogen of maize and teosinte. The genome size is approximately 20 Mb. The fungus induces tumors on host plants and forms masses of diploid teliospores. These spores germinate and form haploid meiotic products that can be propagated in culture as yeast-like cells. Haploid strains of opposite mating type fuse and form a filamentous, dikaryotic cell type that invades plant tissue to reinitiate infection. Ustilago maydis is an important model system for studying pathogen-host interactions and has been studied for more than 100 years by plant pathologists. Molecular genetic research with U. maydis focuses on recombination, the role of mating in pathogenesis, and signaling pathways that influence virulence. Recently, the fungus has emerged as an excellent experimental model for the molecular genetic analysis of phytopathogenesis, particularly in the characterization of infection-specific morphogenesis in response to signals from host plants. Ustilago maydis also serves as an important model for other basidiomycete plant pathogens that are more difficult to work with in the laboratory, such as the rust and bunt fungi. Genomic sequence of U. maydis will also be valuable for comparative analysis of other fungal genomes, especially with respect to understanding the host range of fungal phytopathogens. The analysis of U. maydis would provide a framework for studying the hundreds of other Ustilago species that attack important crops, such as barley, wheat, sorghum, and sugarcane. Comparisons would also be possible with other basidiomycete fungi, such as the important human pathogen C. neoformans. Commercially, U. maydis is an excellent model for the discovery of antifungal drugs. In addition, maize tumors caused by U. maydis are prized in Hispanic cuisine and there is interest in improving commercial production. The complete putative gene set of the Broad Institute''s second release is loaded into the database and in addition all deviating putative genes from a putative gene set produced by MIPS with different gene prediction parameters are also loaded. The complete dataset will then be analysed, gene predictions will be manually corrected due to combined information derived from different gene prediction algorithms and, more important, protein and EST comparisons. Gene prediction will be restricted to ORFs larger than 50 codons; smaller ORFs will be included only if similarities to other proteins or EST matches confirm their existence or if a coding region was postulated by all prediction programs used. The resulting proteins will be annotated. They will be classified according to the MIPS classification catalogue receiving appropriate descriptions. All proteins with a known, characterized homolog will be automatically assigned to functional categories using the MIPS functional catalog. All extracted proteins are in addition automatically analysed and annotated by the PEDANT suite. | drug, environment, filamentous, functional, fungal, fungal genome databases, fungus, gene, genetic, basidiomycete, cell, codon, culture, dikaryotic, diploid, genome, genomic, germinate, haploid, host, human, infection, maize, mating, meiotic, model, molecular, morphogenesis, network, orf, pathogen, pathologist, phytopathogen, phytopathogenesis, plant, protein, recombination, sequence, signal, spore, strain, structure, teliospore, teosinte, tissue, tumor, ustilago maydis, virulence, yeast | nif-0000-21276 | SCR_007563 | MUMDB | 2026-08-10 09:33:11 | 9 | ||||||||||

ChromDB- the chromatin database Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
ChromDB- the chromatin database (RRID:SCR_007597) | data or information resource, database | ChromDB is a chromatin database. Three types of sequences are included in the database: genomic-based (predominantly plant sequences); transcript-based (EST contigs or cDNAs for plants lacking a sequenced genome); and NCBI RefSeq sequences for a variety of model animal organisms. The Gene Record Page for any sequence indicates the type of sequence. The broad mission of ChromDB is display, annotate, and curate sequences of two broad functional classes of biologically important proteins: chromatin-associated proteins (CAPs) and RNA interference-associated proteins. Plant proteins are the major focus of the work support by The Plant Genome Research Program (PGRP) of the National Science Foundation. Our intent is to produce intensively curated sequence information and make it available to the research and teaching community in support of comparative analyses toward understanding the chromatin proteome in plants, especially in important crop species. In order to do a comparative analysis, it is necessary to include non-plant proteins in the database. Non-plant genes are not curated to the degree carried out for plants and to automate the process of data import, our non-plant genes are from the RefSeq database of NCBI. We reason that the inclusion of non-plant, model organisms will broaden the relevance and usefulness of ChromDB to the entire chromatin community and will provide a more complete data set for phylogenetic analyses in support of the evolution of the plant chromatin proteome.

GeneFarm (RRID:SCR_007674) | data or information resource, database | GeneFarm is a database of structural and functional annotation of plant gene and protein families. The goal of the GeneFarm project is to obtain homogeneous, reliable, documented and traceable annotations for plant nuclear genes and gene products and to enter them into added-value database. The improved annotation will allow better data mining of the plant genomes (mainly Arabidopsis thaliana), and more secure planning and design of experiments. It is also a necessary step for building knowledge management tools for integrating plant genomic data, either for plant breeding or to get a broader interactive view of plant biological processes, like gene interaction networks. This re-annotation project, launched is mainly focused on gene families. A complete annotation pipeline using the most efficient prediction tools has been defined. The involved partners, each contributing with genes from his/her field of expertise, have exhaustively annotated families of homologous genes. A database named GeneFarm (Gene Families for Arabidopsis Management) gathers all these expert-curated annotations of plant gene families.
