http://www.rightfield.org.uk/

An open-source tool for adding ontology term selection to Excel spreadsheets. It is used by a "Template Creator" to create semantically aware Excel spreadsheet templates. The Excel templates are then reused by Scientists to collect and annotate their data; without any need to understand, or even be aware of, RightField or the ontologies used. For each annotation field, RightField can specify a range of allowed terms from a chosen ontology (subclasses, individuals or combinations). The resulting spreadsheet presents these terms to the users as a simple drop-down list. This reduces the adoption barrier for using community ontologies as the annotation is made by the scientist that generated the data rather than a third party, and the annotation is collected at the time of data collection. RightField is a standalone Java application which uses Apache-POI for interacting with Microsoft documents. It enables users to import Excel spreadsheets, or generate new ones from scratch. Ontologies can either be imported from their local file systems, or from the BioPortal ontology repository. Individual cells, or whole columns or rows can be marked with the required ranges of ontology terms and an individual spreadsheet can be annotated with terms from multiple ontologies.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 4, 2023.Consortium that developed brief, standardized and reliable procedures for the evaluation and diagnosis of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias of the elderly. These procedures included data forms, flipbooks, guidebooks, brochures, instruction manuals and demonstration tapes, which are now available for purchase. The CERAD assessment material can be used for research purposes as well as for patient care. CERAD has developed several basic standardized instruments, each consisting of brief forms designed to gather data on normal persons as well as on cognitively impaired or behaviorally disturbed individuals. Such data permit the identification of dementia based on clinical, neuropsychological, behavioral or neuropathological criteria. Staff at participating CERAD sites were trained and certified to administer the assessment instruments and to evaluate the subjects enrolled in the study. Cases and controls were evaluated at entry and annually thereafter including (when possible) autopsy examination of the brain to track the natural progression of AD and to obtain neuropathological confirmation of the clinical diagnosis. The CERAD database has become a major resource for research in Alzheimer's disease. It contains longitudinal data for periods as long as seven years on the natural progression of the disorder as well as information on clinical and neuropsychological changes and neuropathological manifestations., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

Software for linkage and association modeling in pedigrees that uses a maximum likelihood model to extract information on genetic linkage and association from samples of unrelated individuals, sib pairs, trios and larger pedigrees (Li et al, 2005; Li et al, 2006). It provides estimates of genetic model parameters and powerful tests of association in settings where population stratification is not a concern.

http://www.altanalyze.org/

Software application for microarry, RNA-Seq and metabolomics analysis. For splicing sensitive platforms (RNA-Seq or Affymetrix Exon, Gene and Junction arrays), it will assess alternative exon (known and novel) expression along protein isoforms, domain composition and microRNA targeting. In addition to splicing-sensitive platforms, it provides comprehensive methods for the analysis of other data (RMA summarization, batch-effect removal, QC, statistics, annotation, clustering, network creation, lineage characterization, alternative exon visualization, gene-set enrichement and more). AltAnalyze can be run through an intuitive graphical user interface or command-line and requires no advanced knowledge of bioinformatics programs or scripting. Alternative regulated exons can be subsequently visualized in the context of proteins, domains and microRNA binding sites with the Cytoscape Plugin DomainGraph.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23,2022. Collects, authenticates, maintains and distributes cultures of microorganisms and cultured cells. Its aim is to promote and support the establishment of culture collections and related services, to provide liaison and set up an information network between the collections and their users, to organize workshops and conferences, publications and newsletters and work to ensure the long term perpetuation of important collections. The WFCC (through the activities of Professor Skerman, University of Queensland, Australia, and his colleagues in the 1960's) pioneered the development of an international database on culture resources worldwide. The result is the WFCC World Data Center for Microorganisms (WDCM). This data resource is now maintained at National Institute of Genetics (NIG), Japan and has records of nearly 476 culture collections from 62 countries. The records contain data on the organization, management, services and scientific interests of the collections. Each of these records is linked to a second record containing the list of species held. The WDCM database forms an important information resource for all microbiological activity and also acts as a focus for data activities among WFCC members.

The CGSC Collection contains only non-pathogenic BSL-1 laboratory strains, primarily genetic derivatives of Escherichia coli K-12, the laboratory strain widely used in genetic and molecular studies, but a few B strains. The CGSC Database of E. coli genetic information includes genotypes and reference information for the strains in the CGSC collection, the names, synonyms, properties, and map position for genes, gene product information, and information on specific mutations and references to primary literature. The public version of the database includes this information and can be queried directly via this CGSC DB WebServer. The collection includes cultures of wild-type contributed from a number of laboratories and a few thousand derivatives carrying one or up to 29 mutations from among 3500 mutations in (or included in deletions spanning) more than 1300 different loci. Some combinations were constructed particularly for mapping purposes and are still used for teaching and for rapid localization, some for manifestation of a particular phenotype, some strains for transferring a particular region or for complementation analysis. Some plasmids, e.g., the Clarke and Carbon collection, F-primes, a number of toolkit plasmids, and a few classic plasmids are included, but it is not a comprehensive collection of plasmids. Additionally, we have recently acquired most of the strains from the Keio Collection of systematic individual gene knockout (deletion/kan insertion) strains.
