AltSplice is a computer generated high quality data set of human transcript-confirmed splice patterns, alternative splice events, and the associated annotations. This data is being integrated with other data that is generated by other members of the ASD consortium. The ASD project will provide the following in its three year duration: -human curated database of alternative spliced genes and their properties -a computer generated database of alternatively spliced genes and their properties -the integration of the above and newly found knowledge in a user-friendly interface and research workbench for both bioinformaticists and biologists -DNA chips that are based on the data in the above databases -the DNA chips will be used to test against predisposition for and diagnoses of human diseases ASD aims to analyse this mechanism on a genome-wide scale by creating a database that contains all alternatively spliced exons from human, and other model species. Disease causing mutations seem to induce aberrations in the process of splicing and its regulation. The ASD consortium will develop a DNA microarray (chip) that contains cDNAs of all the splicing regulatory proteins and their isoforms, as well as a chip that contains a number of disease relevant genes. We will concentrate on three models of disease (breast cancer, FTDP-17, male infertility) in which a connection between mis-splicing and a pathological state has been observed. Finally, these chips will be developed as demonstrative kits to detect predisposition for and diagnosis of such diseases. Categories: Nucleotide Sequences: Gene Structure, Introns and Exons, & Splice Sites Databases

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/asd/aedb/index.html

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on March 27, 2013. A manual generated database for alternative exons and their properties from numerous species - the data is gathered from literature where these exons have been experimentally verified. Most alternative exons are cassette exons and are expressed in more than two tissues. Of all exons whose expression was reported to be specific for a certain tissue, the majority were expressed in the brain. At the moment, AEdb products that are available are sequence (a database of alternative exons), function (a database of functions attributed to constitutive and alternative exon), regulatory sequence (a database of transcript regulatory motifs), minigenes (a table of minigenes and their associations to splicing events), and diseases (a table of diseases associated with splicing and their associations to AltSplice). Alternative splicing is an important regulatory mechanism of mammalian gene expression. The alternative splicing database (ASD) consortium is systematically collecting and annotating data on alternative splicing. The continuation and upgrade of the ASD consists of computationally and manually generated data. Its largest parts are AltSplice, a value-added database of computationally delineated alternative splicing events. Its data include alternatively spliced introns/exons, events, isoform splicing patterns and isoform peptide sequences. AltSplice data are generated by examining gene-transcript alignments. The data are annotated for various biological features including splicing signals, expression states, (SNP)-mediated splicing and cross-species conservation. AEdb forms the manually curated component of ASD. It is a literature-based data set containing sequence and properties of alternatively spliced exons, functional enumeration of observed splicing events, characterization of observed splicing regulatory elements, and a collection of experimentally clarified minigene constructs.

CSB.DB presents the results of bio-statistical analysis on gene expression data in association with additional biochemical and physiological knowledge. The main aim of this database platform is to provide tools that support insight into life''s complexity pyramid with a special focus on the integration of data from transcript and metabolite profiling experiments. The main focus of the CSB project is the generation of new easily accessible knowledge about the relationship and the hierarchy of cellular components. Thus new progress towards understanding lifes complexity pyramid is made. For this aim statistical and computational algorithms are applied to organism specific data derived from publicly available multi-parallel technologies, currently such as expression profiles. The underlying data are derived from various research activities. Thus CSB project provides an integrated and centralized public resource allowing universal access on the generated knowledge CSB.DB: A Comprehensive Systems-Biology Database. The derived knowledge should support the formulation of new hypotheses about the respective functional involvement of genes beyond their (inter-) relationships. Another major goal of the CSB project is to supply the researchers with necessary information to formulate these new hypotheses without demanding any a-priori statistical knowledge of the user. The CSB project mainly focuses on application of required statistical tests as well as to assist the user during exploration of results with information / help files to support hypothesis generation

http://chromium.lovd.nl/LOVD2/home.php?select_db=CDKN2A

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. The CDKN2A Database presents the germline and somatic variants of the CDKN2A tumor suppressor gene recorded in human disease through June 2003, annotated with evolutionary, structural, and functional information, in a format that allows the user to either download it or manipulate it for their purposes online. The goal is to provide a database that can be used as a resource by researchers and geneticists and that aids in the interpretation of CDKN2A missense variants. Most online mutation databases present flat files that cannot be manipulated, are often incomplete, and have varying degrees of annotation that may or may not help to interpret the data. They hope to use CDKN2A as a prototype for integrating computational and laboratory data to help interpret variants in other cancer-related genes and other single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) found throughout the genome. Another goal of the lab is to interpret the functional and disease significance of missense variants in cancer susceptibility genes. Eventually, these results will be relevant to the interpretation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in general. The CDKN2A locus is a valuable model for assessing relationships among variation, structure, function, and disease because: Variants of this gene are associated with hereditary cancer: Familial Melanoma (and related syndromes); somatic alterations play a role in carcinogenesis; allelic variants occur whose functional consequences are unknown; reliable functional assays exist; and crystal structure is known. All variants in the database are recorded according to the nomenclature guidelines as outlined by the Human Genome Variation Society. This database is currently designed for research purposes only and is not yet recommended as a clinical resource. Many of the mutations reported here have not been tested for disease association and may represent normal, non-disease causing polymorphisms.

Expression profiling and promoter identification software tool for transcriptional network analysis and transcriptome characterization. DeepCAGE, the combination of next-generation sequencing with next generation expression profiling provides unsurpassed solutions for expression profiling and genome annotation. CAGE will be the experimental approach at need to link gene expression and control regions in the genome. With the availability of next-generation sequencing methods, DNAFORM now offers DeepCAGE services. DeepCAGE libraries are prepared for direct analysis by an Illumina/Solexa Sequencer. One sequencing run using one channel on an Illumina/Solexa Sequencer can yield in over 4,000,000 reads per sample. CAGE is based on our full-length cDNA library technology, where an adaptor is ligated to the 5''''-end of full-length cDNAs, which introduces a recognition site for a Class IIs restriction endonuclease adjacent to the 5''''-end of the cDNA. The Class IIs restriction endonuclease, here MmeI, allows for the cloning of short tags as derived from the 5''''-end of transcripts into concatemers for high-throughput sequencing. CAGE tags are further characterized by mapping to genomic sequences, which enables the identification of transcriptional start sites. As such CAGE can contribute to projects in Gene Discovery, Gene Expression, and Promoter Identification. After the genome sequencing projects have provided us with the genetic blueprints for many organisms, new questions have to be answered on how to correlate the observed genotypes with related phenotypes, and how to understand the regulation of genetic information in time and space. The dynamics of living systems and the functional behavior of cells in multicellular organisms has thus become the subject of the emerging field of system biology. Integration of experimental approaches and computer aided theories on a system level will be the fundamental principle to drive systems biology in order to understand the principles behind complex regulatory networks, which will be an ambitious goal requiring new approaches in life sciences.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 29, 2016. An algorithm that finds articles most relevant to a genetic sequence. In the genomic era, researchers often want to know more information about a biological sequence by retrieving its related articles. However, there is no available tool yet to achieve conveniently this goal. Here, a new literature-mining tool MedBlast is developed, which uses natural language processing techniques, to retrieve the related articles of a given sequence. An online server of this program is also provided. The genome sequencing projects generate such a large amount of data every day that many molecular biologists often encounter some sequences that they know nothing about. Literature is usually the principal resource of such information. It is relatively easy to mine the articles cited by the sequence annotation; however, it is a difficult task to retrieve those relevant articles without direct citation relationship. The related articles are those described in the given sequence (gene/protein), or its redundant sequences, or the close homologs in various species. They can be divided into two classes: direct references, which include those either cited by the sequence annotation or citing the sequence in its text; indirect references, those which contain gene symbols of the given sequence. A few additional issues make the task even more complicated: (1) symbols may have aliases; and (2) one sequence may have a couple of relatives that we want to take into account too, which include redundant (e.g. protein and gene sequences) and close homologs. Here the issues are addressed by the development of the software MedBlast, which can retrieve the related articles of the given sequence automatically. MedBlast uses BLAST to extend homology relationships, precompiled species-specific thesauruses, a useful semantics technique in natural language processing (NLP), to extend alias relationship, and EUtilities toolset to search and retrieve corresponding articles of each sequence from PubMed. MedBlast take a sequence in FASTA format as input. The program first uses BLAST to search the GenBank nucleic acid and protein non-redundant (nr) databases, to extend to those homologous and corresponding nucleic acid and protein sequences. Users can input the BLAST results directly, but it is recommended to input the result of both protein and nucleic acid nr databases. The hits with low e-values are chosen as the relatives because the low similarity hits often do not contain specific information. Very long sequences, e.g. 100k, which are usually genomic sequences, are discarded too, for they do not contain specific direct references. User can adjust these parameters to meet their own needs.
