The National Bioscience Database Center (NBDC) intends to integrate all databases for life sciences in Japan, by linking each database with expediency to maximize convenience and make the entire system more user-friendly. We aim to focus our attention on the needs of the users of these databases who have all too often been neglected in the past, rather than the needs of the people tasked with the creation of databases. It is important to note that we will continue to honor the independent integrity of each database that will contribute to our endeavor, as we are fully aware that each database was originally crafted for specific purposes and divergent goals. Services: * Database Catalog - A catalog of life science related databases constructed in Japan that are also available in English. Information such as URL, status of the database site (active vs. inactive), database provider, type of data and subjects of the study are contained for each database record. * Life Science Database Cross Search - A service for simultaneous searching across scattered life-science databases, ranging from molecular data to patents and literature. * Life Science Database Archive - maintains and stores the datasets generated by life scientists in Japan in a long-term and stable state as national public goods. The Archive makes it easier for many people to search datasets by metadata in a unified format, and to access and download the datasets with clear terms of use. * Taxonomy Icon - A collection of icons (illustrations) of biological species that is free to use and distribute. There are more than 200 icons of various species including Bacteria, Fungi, Protista, Plantae and Animalia. * GenLibi (Gene Linker to bibliography) - an integrated database of human, mouse and rat genes that includes automatically integrated gene, protein, polymorphism, pathway, phenotype, ortholog/protein sequence information, and manually curated gene function and gene-related or co-occurred Disease/Phenotype and bibliography information. * Allie - A search service for abbreviations and long forms utilized in life sciences. It provides a solution to the issue that many abbreviations are used in the literature, and polysemous or synonymous abbreviations appear frequently, making it difficult to read and understand scientific papers that are not relevant to the reader's expertise. * inMeXes - A search service for English expressions (multiple words) that appear no less than 10 times in PubMed/MEDLINE titles or abstracts. In addition, you can easily access the sentences where the expression was used or other related information by clicking one of the search results. * HOWDY - (Human Organized Whole genome Database) is a database system for retrieving human genome information from 14 public databases by using official symbols and aliases. The information is daily updated by extracting data automatically from the genetic databases and shown with all data having the identifiers in common and linking to one another. * MDeR (the MetaData Element Repository in life sciences) - a web-based tool designed to let you search, compare and view Data Elements. MDeR is based on the ISO/IEC 11179 Part3 (Registry metamodel and basic attributes). * Human Genome Variation Database - A database for accumulating all kinds of human genome variations detected by various experimental techniques. * MEDALS - A portal site that provides information about databases, analysis tools, and the relevant projects, that were conducted with the financial support from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan.

http://synapses.clm.utexas.edu/tools/reconstruct/reconstruct.stm

A Windows (Win32) software application for montaging, aligning, tracing, measuring, and reconstructing objects from serial microscopic section images. The software is designed for microscopy in which section resolution is much less than section thickness, such as transmitted electron microscopy (EM) where the resolution is a few nanometers while the section thickness is many tens of nanometers. Reconstruct can easily handle series with hundreds of very large, high-resolution section images. It facilitates image cropping, scaling and alignment. Multiple images can be placed side-by-side to make a montage of a section from a mosaic of images. The alignment of adjacent sections can be rapidly compared by either blending the two sections or by flickering between them. Sections can be moved while blended. Reconstruct aids in the calibration of image size. Images taken at different magnifications can be combined, calibrated and aligned. Tools for tracing and editing of objects on sections are provided. Objects can be surfaced from the traces and previewed in an OpenGL-based 3D scene window. The 3D scene can be saved as a bitmap or as a VRML file.

http://rosalind.info/

A software infrastructure, course and tool set for teaching bioinformatics, and biology through the use of models. This platform for learning bioinformatics through problem solving aims to make learning bioinformatics fun and easy. Learning bioinformatics usually requires solving computational problems of varying difficulty that are extracted from real challenges of molecular biology. Rosalind offers an array of intellectually stimulating problems that grow in biological and computational complexity; each problem is checked automatically, so that the only resource required to learn bioinformatics is an internet connection. Rosalind also promises to facilitate improvements in standard bioinformatics education by providing a vital teaching aid and a central homework resource. Rosalind is inspired by Project Euler, Google Code Jam, and the ever growing movement of free online courses. The project''s name commemorates Rosalind Franklin, whose X-ray crystallography with Raymond Gosling facilitated the discovery of the DNA double helix by Watson and Crick. We hope that Rosalind will inspire a new generation of bioinformatics students by attracting biologists who want to develop vital programming skills at their own pace in a unique environment as well as programmers who have never been exposed to some of the stimulating computational problems generated by molecular biology.

GoMiner is a tool for biological interpretation of "omic" data including data from gene expression microarrays. Omic experiments often generate lists of dozens or hundreds of genes that differ in expression between samples, raising the question, What does it all mean biologically? To answer this question, GoMiner leverages the Gene Ontology (GO) to identify the biological processes, functions and components represented in these lists. Instead of analyzing microarray results with a gene-by-gene approach, GoMiner classifies the genes into biologically coherent categories and assesses these categories. The insights gained through GoMiner can generate hypotheses to guide additional research. GoMiner displays the genes within the framework of the Gene Ontology hierarchy in two ways: * In the form of a tree, similar to that in AmiGO * In the form of a "Directed Acyclic Graph" (DAG) The program also provides: * Quantitative and statistical analysis * Seamless integration with important public databases GoMiner uses the databases provided by the GO Consortium. These databases combine information from a number of different consortium participants, include information from many different organisms and data sources, and are referenced using a variety of different gene product identification approaches.

http://lbgi.fr/balibase/

A collection of high quality multiple sequence alignments for objective, comparative studies of alignment algorithms. The alignments are constructed based on 3D structure superposition and manually refined to ensure alignment of important functional residues. A number of subsets are defined covering many of the most important problems encountered when aligning real sets of proteins. It is specifically designed to serve as an evaluation resource to address all the problems encountered when aligning complete sequences. The first release provided sets of reference alignments dealing with the problems of high variability, unequal repartition and large N/C-terminal extensions and internal insertions. Version 2.0 of the database incorporates three new reference sets of alignments containing structural repeats, trans-membrane sequences and circular permutations to evaluate the accuracy of detection/prediction and alignment of these complex sequences.
Within the resource, users can look at a list of all the alignments, download the whole database by ftp, get the "c" program to compare a test alignment with the BAliBASE reference (The source code for the program is freely available), or look at the results of a comparison study of several multiple alignment programs, using BAliBASE reference sets.
