Colour and Vision Research Laboratory Resource Report Resource Website |
Colour and Vision Research Laboratory (RRID:SCR_000770) | data or information resource, organization portal, laboratory portal, portal | The Colour & Vision Research laboratory and database are based at the Institute of Ophthalmology, which is part of University College London. The Institute and CVRL are both closely associated with Moorfields Eye Hospital. The Institute is next door to Moorfields Eye Hospital near Old Street tube station (see directions). At the Colour & Vision Research laboratory, we investigate normal and clinical human visual perception. Our research focuses on questions about colour perception, light and dark adaptation, night-time vision, and the temporal and spatial properties of vision. Our primary goal is to understand the nature of the mechanisms that underlie visual perception, and to understand how those mechanism malfunction in clinical cases. More details about our research can be found by looking at the publications of members of the laboratory. The CVRL database, first set up in 1995, provides an annotated library of downloadable standard data sets relevant to colour and vision research. The focus of this site is primarily scientific and technical, but some introductory background information is also provided. A consistent set of functions for modeling colour vision based on the Stockman & Sharpe cone fundamentals and on our more recent luminous efficiency measurements are summarized under the category CVRL functions. These functions are tabulated in 0.1, 1 and 5 nm steps and can be returned as csv, xml, or tabular data or as dynamic plots. The Stockman & Sharpe cone fundamentals are the basis of a CIE proposal for physiologically-relevant colour matching functions. These functions, which are indentical to the CVRL functions, are summarized under the category CIE 2007 functions. The CIE functions are also tabulated in 0.1, 1 and 5 nm steps, and can also be returned as csv, xml, or tabular data or as dynamic plots. Significant additions to the database are the individual colour matching measurements made by Stiles & Burch. These have been compiled and cross-checked with the help of Boris Oicherman, Alexander Logvinenko, and Abhijit Sarkar from hard copies of the original data provided by Pat Trezona and Mike Webster. They can be obtained as Excel files and are available for both 2 and 10 colour matches. Other data sets, which are provided as csv files, include cone fundamentals, colour matching functions, chromaticity coordinates, prereceptoral filter density spectra, photopigment spectra, and CIE standards. Many of these data sets can also be viewed as dynamic plots. Sponsors: CVRL is funded by BBSRC The Wellcome Trust, Fight for Sight, National Eye Institute, and NIH. | chromaticity, clinical, color, human, ophthalmology, perception, photopigment, research, spectra, temporal, vision, visual | has parent organization: University College London; London; United Kingdom | nif-0000-24691 | SCR_000770 | CVRL | 2026-08-13 09:26:14 | 0 | |||||||||

Bio-derived Feedstocks for Sustainable UK-Based Manufacture of Chemicals and Pharmaceutical Intermediates Resource Report Resource Website |
Bio-derived Feedstocks for Sustainable UK-Based Manufacture of Chemicals and Pharmaceutical Intermediates (RRID:SCR_000490) | BFSUKMCPI | organization portal, data or information resource, consortium, portal | Project aiming to establish a range of new technologies to enable the synthesis of a range of chemicals from sugar beet pulp (SBP) in a cost-effective and sustainable manner. The chemical and pharmaceutical industries are currently reliant on petrochemical derived intermediates for the synthesis of a wide range of valuable products. Decreasing petrochemical reserves and concerns over costs and greenhouse gas emissions are driving the search for renewable sources of organic synthons. The UK is self-sufficient in the production of SBP which is a by-product of sugar beet production (8 million tonnes grown per year) and processing. The ability to convert SBP into chemicals and pharmaceutical intermediates will therefore have significant economic and environmental benefits. SBP is rich in carbohydrate (nearly 80% by weight) which is made up of roughly equal proportions of 2 biological polymers; cellulose and pectin. To be cost-effective it will be necessary to find uses for each of these substances. The consortium will develop a biorefinery approach for the selective breakdown of both polymers, purification of the breakdown compounds and their use to synthesize a range of added value products such as speciality chemicals, pharmaceuticals and biodegradable polymers. It is already known that cellulose can be broken down into hexose sugars and fermented to ethanol for use in biofuels. The focus is on the release of galacturonic acid and arabinose (from pectin) and their conversion, by chemical or enzymatic means, into added value products. Synthetic Biology methods will also be explored to test the feasibility of metabolically engineering microbial cells to simultaneously breakdown the polymeric feed material and synthesize a desired product, such as aromatic compounds, in a single integrated process. In conducting this research the consortium will adopt a holistic, systems-led, approach to biorefinery design and operation. Computer-based modelling tools will be used to assess the efficiency of raw material, water and energy utilization. Economic and Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) approaches will then be employed to identify the most cost-effective and environmentally benign product and process combinations. The project is supported by a range of industrial partners from raw material producer to intermediate technology providers and end-user chemical and pharmaceutical companies. This is crucial in providing business and socio-economic insights regarding the adoption of renewable resources into their current product portfolios. The company partners will also provide the material and equipment resources for the large-scale verification of project outcomes and their ultimate transition into commercial manufacture. The Intellectual Property (IP) expected to be generated by the consortium will most likely be related to new biocatalysts, synthetic routes, USD devices and modelling software. The data is accessible programmatically using one of three application programming interfaces GtR, GtR-2 and CERIF. | chemical, drug, drug development, pharmaceutical, manufacture, product development, sugar beet pulp, sugar beet, polymer, galacturonic acid, arabinose, biorefinery, cellulose, pectin, ethanol, biofuel |

Yandell Lab Portal Resource Report Resource Website |
Yandell Lab Portal (RRID:SCR_000807) | data or information resource, organization portal, data processing software, data analysis software, software application, laboratory portal, software resource, portal | Sequenced genomes contain a treasure trove of information about how genes function and evolve. Getting at this information, however, is challenging and requires novel approaches that combine computer science and experimental molecular biology. My lab works at the intersection of both domains, and research in our group can be summarized as follows: generate hypotheses concerning gene function and evolution by computational means, and then test these hypotheses at the bench. This is easier said than done, as serious barriers still exist to using sequenced genomes and their annotations as starting points for experimental work. Some of these barriers lie in the computational domain, others in the experimental. Though challenging, overcoming these barriers offers exciting training opportunities in both computer science and molecular genetics, especially for those seeking a future at the intersection of both fields. Ongoing projects in the lab are centered on genome annotation and comparative genomics; exploring the relationships between sequence variation and human disease; and high-throughput biological image analysis. Current software tools available: VAAST (the Variant Annotation, Analysis & Search Tool) is a probabilistic search tool for identifying damaged genes and their disease-causing variants in personal genome sequences. VAAST builds upon existing amino acid substitution (AAS) and aggregative approaches to variant prioritization, combining elements of both into a single unified likelihood-framework that allows users to identify damaged genes and deleterious variants with greater accuracy, and in an easy-to-use fashion. VAAST can score both coding and non-coding variants, evaluating the cumulative impact of both types of variants simultaneously. VAAST can identify rare variants causing rare genetic diseases, and it can also use both rare and common variants to identify genes responsible for common diseases. VAAST thus has a much greater scope of use than any existing methodology. MAKER 2 (updated 01-16-2012) MAKER is a portable and easily configurable genome annotation pipeline. It's purpose is to allow smaller eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomeprojects to independently annotate their genomes and to create genome databases. MAKER identifies repeats, aligns ESTs and proteins to a genome, produces ab-initio gene predictions and automatically synthesizes these data into gene annotations having evidence-based quality values. MAKER is also easily trainable: outputs of preliminary runs can be used to automatically retrain its gene prediction algorithm, producing higher quality gene-models on seusequent runs. MAKER's inputs are minimal and its ouputs can be directly loaded into a GMOD database. They can also be viewed in the Apollo genome browser; this feature of MAKER provides an easy means to annotate, view and edit individual contigs and BACs without the overhead of a database. MAKER should prove especially useful for emerging model organism projects with minimal bioinformatics expertise and computer resources. RepeatRunner RepeatRunner is a CGL-based program that integrates RepeatMasker with BLASTX to provide a comprehensive means of identifying repetitive elements. Because RepeatMasker identifies repeats by means of similarity to a nucleotide library of known repeats, it often fails to identify highly divergent repeats and divergent portions of repeats, especially near repeat edges. To remedy this problem, RepeatRunner uses BLASTX to search a database of repeat encoded proteins (reverse transcriptases, gag, env, etc...). Because protein homologies can be detected across larger phylogenetic distances than nucleotide similarities, this BLASTX search allows RepeatRunner to identify divergent protein coding portions of retro-elements and retro-viruses not detected by RepeatMasker. RepeatRunner merges its BLASTX and RepeatMasker results to produce a single, comprehensive XML-based output. It also masks the input sequence appropriately. In practice RepeatRunner has been shown to greatly improve the efficacy of repeat identifcation. RepeatRunner can also be used in conjunction with PILER-DF - a program designed to identify novel repeats - and RepeatMasker to produce a comprehensive system for repeat identification, characterization, and masking in the newly sequenced genomes. CGL CGL is a software library designed to facilitate the use of genome annotations as substrates for computation and experimentation; we call it CGL, an acronym for Comparitive Genomics Library, and pronounce it Seagull. The purpose of CGL is to provide an informatics infrastructure for a laboratory, department, or research institute engaged in the large-scale analysis of genomes and their annotations. | software, gene, genome annotation, human |

Semantic Web Applications in Neuromedicine (SWAN) Ontology Resource Report Resource Website |
Semantic Web Applications in Neuromedicine (SWAN) Ontology (RRID:SCR_000697) | SWAN Ontology | ontology, data or information resource, narrative resource, controlled vocabulary | The SWAN (Semantic Web Applications in Neuromedicine) ontology is an ontology for modeling scientific discourse and has been developed in the context of building a series of applications for biomedical researchers, as well as extensive discussions and collaborations with the larger bio-ontologies community. Developing cures for highly complex diseases, such as neurodegenerative disorders, requires extensive interdisciplinary collaboration and exchange of biomedical information in context. Our ability to exchange such information across sub-specialties today is limited by the current scientific knowledge ecosystem's inability to properly contextualize and integrate data and discourse in machine-interpretable form. This inherently limits the productivity of research and the progress toward cures for devastating diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. The SWAN ontology is organized in three types of modules: * basic: basic modules represent the ontology building blocks. They cover topics that are general enough to be included in every ontology distribution. The current basic modules are: ** collections ** provenance, authoring and versioning (PAV) ** discourse relationships ** FOAF (in OWL-DL) ** SKOS (in OWL-DL) ** qualifiers ** scientific discourse * extension: extensions modules are covering topics (a) that can be related only to some fields of science (b) for which there could be more than one implementation (c) for which a temporary solution has been provided and it is possible to forecast its substitution. The current extensions modules are: ** life science entities ** citations ** qualifiers extension modules * distribution: distributions are modules that are including all the basic modules and extensions necessary for serving a specific domain (i.e. the SWAN ontology for the Alzheimer knowledge base or the generic distribution that is not binded to any specific scientific domain). The current available distributions are: ** swan-scientific-discourse ** swan-alzheimer | scientific discourse, biomedical research, semantics, owl, semantic web, biomedicine, swan, alzheimer disease, knowledgebase, hypothesis/claim-based representation of the rhetorical structure of a scientific paper |
