http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/gwBrowser/

An interactive web application for visualizing genomic data of sequenced prokaryotic chromosomes. It allows users to carry out various analyses such as mapping alignments of homologous genes to other genomes, mapping of short sequencing reads to a reference chromosome, and calculating DNA properties such as curvature or stacking energy along the chromosome. The GeneWiz browser produces an interactive graphic that enables zooming from a global scale down to single nucleotides, without changing the size of the plot. Its ability to disproportionally zoom provides optimal readability and increased functionality compared to other browsers. The tool allows the user to select the display of various genomic features, color setting and data ranges. Custom numerical data can be added to the plot allowing, for example, visualization of gene expression and regulation data. Further, standard atlases are pre-generated for all prokaryotic genomes available in GenBank, providing a fast overview of all available genomes, including recently deposited genome sequences.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 28,2025. Tool that integrates phenotype, gene function, and disease information with personal genomic data for improved power to identify disease-causing alleles. It works by combining knowledge resident in multiple biomedical ontologies with the outputs of variant prioritization tools. It does so using an algorithm that propagates information across and between ontologies. This process enables Phevor to accurately reprioritize potentially damaging alleles identified by variant prioritization tools in light of gene function, disease, and phenotype knowledge. Phevor is especially useful for single exome and family trio-based diagnostic analyses, the most commonly occurring clinical scenarios, and ones for which existing personal-genomes diagnostic tools are most inaccurate and underpowered. Phevor not only improves diagnostic accuracy for individuals presenting with established disease phenotypes, but also for those with previously undescribed and atypical disease presentations. Importantly, Phevor is not limited to known diseases, or known disease-causing alleles.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Doumented on September 23,2022. The National Cancer Institute initially established the Cooperative Prostate Cancer Tissue Resource (CPCTR) to provide prostate cancer tissue samples with clinical annotation to researchers. The Resource provides access to formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded primary prostate cancer tissue with associated clinical and follow-up data for research studies, particularly studies focused on translating basic research findings into clinical application. Fresh-frozen tissue is also available with limited clinical follow up information since these are more recent cases. The Resource database contains pathologic and clinical information linked to a large collection of prostate tissue specimens that is available for research. Researchers can determine whether the Resource has the tissues and patient data they need for their individual research studies. Consultation and interpretive services: Assistance is available from trained CPCTR pathologists. The CPCTR can provide consultative assistance in staining interpretation, and scoring, on a collaborative basis. Fresh Frozen and Paraffin Tissue: The resource has over 7,000 annotated cases (including 7,635 specimens and 38,399 annotated blocks). Tissue Microarrays (TMA): The CPCTR has slides from prostate cancer TMAs with associated clinical data. The information provided for each case on the arrays (derived from radical prostatectomy specimens) includes: age at diagnosis, race, PSA at diagnosis, tumor size, TNM stage, Gleason score and grade, and vital status and other variables.

PLoS Blogs has been set up to bring a select group of independent science and medicine bloggers together with the editors and staff who run our blogs. Our independent network is made up of writers who love science and medicine, and scientists and physicians that love to write. Here, you'll find an equal mix of blogs from journalists and researchers tackling diverse issues in science and medicine. There are three very distinct types of blogs on the PLoS Blogs network: the official PLoS blog, the PLoS journal blogs (collectively known as The PLoS Blogs), and blogs from the independent network (a.k.a. The PLoS Blogosphere) # The official PLoS blog: This content is produced, edited, and/or maintained by PLoS staff. # The journal blogs: This content is produced, edited, and/or maintained by PLoS journal staff: The current journal blogs are Speaking of Medicine (PLoS Medicine's blog) and everyONE (PLoS ONE's blog). # Our independent network of bloggers (The PLoS Blogosphere): This content is produced, edited, and/or maintained by the authors. * All of the content in The PLoS Blogosphere came from the minds of the authors. PLoS does not screen, edit, or otherwise meddle with content on the these blogs in any way. Our bloggers and our users are held to exactly the same standards, and the community guidelines apply to everyone that uses our site. If a blogger has posted content that you believe violates our site abuse policy, please contact PLoS. * Bloggers monitor their own comment threads: All comments will be reviewed by the author of the blog where you leave your thoughts. Just follow our simple community guidelines and we'll all get along just fine.
