A database that houses annotations of human splice isoforms. It adds reliable protein structural and functional data and information from cross-species conservation. A visual representation of the annotations for each gene allows users to easily identify functional changes brought about by splicing events. In addition to collecting, integrating and analyzing reliable predictions of the effect of splicing events, it also selects a single reference sequence for each gene, termed the principal isoform, based on the annotations of structure, function and conservation for each transcript.

Freely accessible phenotype-centered database with integrated analysis and visualization tools. It combines diverse data sets from multiple species and experiment types, and allows data sharing across collaborative groups or to public users. It was conceived of as a tool for the integration of biological functions based on the molecular processes that subserved them. From these data, an empirically derived ontology may one day be inferred. Users have found the system valuable for a wide range of applications in the arena of functional genomic data integration.

IDEAL, Intrinsically Disordered proteins with Extensive Annotations and Literature, is a collection of knowledge on experimentally verified intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) or intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs). IDEAL contains manually curated annotations on IDPs in locations, structures, and functional sites such as protein binding regions and posttranslational modification sites together with references and structural domain assignments. Protean segment One of the unique phenomena seen in IDPs is so-called the coupled folding and binding, where a short flexible segment can bind to its binding partner with forming a specific structure to act as a molecular recognition element. IDEAL explicitly annotates these regions as protean segment (ProS) when unstructured and structured information are both available in the region. Access to the data All the entries are tabulated in the list and individual entries can be retrieved by using the search tool at the upper-right corner in this page. IDEAL also provides the BLAST search, which can find homologs in IDEAL. All the information in IDEAL can be downloaded in the XML file.

Database of histopathology photomicrographs and macroscopic images derived from mutant or genetically manipulated mice. The database currently holds more than 1000 images of lesions from mutant mice and their inbred backgrounds and further images are being added continuously. Images can be retrieved by searching for specific lesions or class of lesion, by genetic locus, or by a wide set of parameters shown on the Advanced Search Interface. Its two key aims are: * To provide a searchable database of histopathology images derived from experimental manipulation of the mouse genome or experiments conducted on genetically manipulated mice. * A reference / didactic resource covering all aspects of mouse pathology Lesions are described according to the Pathbase pathology ontology developed by the Pathbase European Consortium, and are available at the site or on the Gene Ontology Consortium site - OBO. As this is a community resource, they encourage everyone to upload their own images, contribute comments to images and send them their feedback. Please feel free to use any of the SOAP/WSDL web services. (under development)

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 16, 2019.
A database that integrates not only RIKEN''''s original large-scale mammalian databases, such as FANTOM, the ENU mutagenesis program, the RIKEN Cerebellar Development Transcriptome Database and the Bioresource Database, but also imported data from public databases, such as Ensembl, MGI and biomedical ontologies. Our integrated database has been implemented on the infrastructure of publication medium for databases, termed SciNetS/SciNeS, or the Scientists'''' Networking System, where the data and metadata are structured as a semantic web and are downloadable in various standardized formats. The top-level ontology-based implementation of mammal-related data directly integrates the representative knowledge and individual data records in existing databases to ensure advanced cross-database searches and reduced unevenness of the data management operations. Through the development of this database, we propose a novel methodology for the development of standardized comprehensive management of heterogeneous data sets in multiple databases to improve the sustainability, accessibility, utility and publicity of the data of biomedical information.

The Stem Cell Research and Regenerative Medicine''s Tissue Culture Core provides cells for research use within the department, as well as for distribution to other facilities. The core obtains hMSCs from bone marrow donor samples and expands these cells for research use. The hMSC''s are also characterized for bone, fat and cartilage differentiation, and are stored on site for use. The Tissue Culture Core also handles the expansion and characterization of mouse and rat MSC''s. The animal cells are cultured in a separate area, and never interact with human derived cells. We also have a supply of hMSC''s marked with GFP+, Mito Red and Mito Blue available.

http://www.civm.duhs.duke.edu/neuro2012ratatlas/

Multidimensional atlas of the adult Wistar rat brain based on magnetic resonance histology (MRH). The atlas has been carefully aligned with the widely used Paxinos-Watson atlas based on optical sections to allow comparisons between histochemical and immuno-marker data, and the use of the Paxinos-Watson abbreviation set. Our MR atlas attempts to make a seamless connection with the advantageous features of the Paxinos-Watson atlas, and to extend the utility of the data through the unique capabilities of MR histology: a) ability to view the brain in the skull with limited distortion from shrinkage or sectioning; b) isotropic spatial resolution, which permits sectioning along any arbitrary axis without loss of detail; c) three-dimensional (3D) images preserving spatial relationships; and d) widely varied contrast dependent on the unique properties of water protons. 3D diffusion tensor images (DTI) at what we believe to be the highest resolution ever attained in the rat provide unique insight into white matter structures and connectivity. The 3D isotropic data allow registration of multiple data sets into a common reference space to provide average atlases not possible with conventional histology. The resulting multidimensional atlas that combines Paxinos-Watson with multidimensional MRH images from multiple specimens provides a new, comprehensive view of the neuroanatomy of the rat and offers a collaborative platform for future rat brain studies. To access the atlas, click view supplementary materials in CIVMSpace at the bottom of the following webpage.

The Edwards lab conducts research in various aspects of computational biology and bioinformatics, particularly proteomics and mass spectrometry informatics and DNA and protein based signatures for pathogen detection. Some tools provided by Edwards Lab are the PepArML Meta-Search Engine, PeptideMapper Web-Service, Peptide Sequence Databases, Rapid Microorganism Identification Database (RMIDb), and GlycoPeptideSearch. Our primary area of research is the analysis of mass spectrometry experiments for proteomics. Proteomics, the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the expressed proteins of a cell, makes it possible to detect and compare the protein abundance profiles of different samples. Proteins observed to be under or over expressed in disease samples can lead to diagnostic markers or drug targets. The observation of mutated or alternatively spliced protein isoforms may provide domain experts with clues to the mechanisms by which a disease operates. The detection of proteins by mass spectrometry can even signal the presence of airborne microorganisms, such as anthrax, in the detect-to-protect time-frame. Recent research has focused on the discovery of novel peptides in proteomics datasets, improving the sensitivity and specificity of peptide identification using spectral matching with hidden Markov models, and unsupervised machine-learning based peptide identification result combining. Outside of proteomics, we work on computational tools for the design of highly specific oligonucleotides useful for pathogen signatures and PCR assay design. Recent research has focused on precomputing all human oligos of length 20 that are unique up to 4 string edits; and all bacterial 20-mer oligos that are species specific up to 4 string edits.
