It is the aim of the SepNet initiative to establish a central facility, essential to data and sample quality and homogeneity, that comprises a structured and easily accessible sample bank with probes of homogeneous quality originating from a well-characterized patient population enrolled in independent, innovative and internationally competitive prospective clinical sepsis trials. The SepNetBiobank is a core facility of SepNet. The object of this central sample resource is to organize and handle all relevant aspects of sampling, storage and delivery of samples in the SepNet collaboration to ensure homogeneity of the samples in terms of specimen quality and maintaining sampling standards. This will be achieved through central handling of samples collected in peripheral nationwide 17 regional centers and an additional 36 associated centers according to an agreed sampling scheme and pre-set standards for sample quality, sample handling and banking; quality assurance and all relevant parts of sample handling will be in the hands of the core unit, minimizing pre-analytical steps in the heterogeneous environment of the different regional centers. In the next few months a fully automated sample storage system will be implemented that allows handling of more than 200.000 individual aliquots expected after completion of the different ongoing and planned SepNet Trails. In the next six months a fully automated -80 degree C sample storage system will be implemented. After completion of the plannend and ongoing SepNet trials more than 59.710 expected primary samples (218.040 aliquots) will be stored in this system. This outstanding sample resource will provide the basis for scientific projects aming at improving patient care with sepsis e.g. advancement in diagnostics, risk stratification, therapy and outcome.

http://natural.salk.edu/CREB/

CREB target gene database that uses a multi-layered approach to predict, validate and characterize CREB target genes. For each gene, the database tries to provide the following information: 1. CREB binding sites on the promoters 2. Promoter occupancy by CREB 3. Gene activation by cAMP in tissues CREB seems to occupy a large number of promoters in the genome (up to ~5000 in human), and the profiles for CREB promoter occupancy are very similar in different human tissues. However, only a small proportion of CREB occupied genes are induced by cAMP in any cell type, possibly reflecting the requirement of additional regulatory partners that assist in recruitment of the transcriptional apparatus. To use the database, choose the species, select the table you want to search, leave field (''All'') and type in the gene you want to search. A table listing the search results will be returned, followed by the description of the table. If no search result is returned, try the official gene symbol or gene ID (locuslink number) from NCBI Entrez Gene to search.

Alternative splicing essentially increases the diversity of the transcriptome and has important implications for physiology, development and the genesis of diseases. This resource uses a different approach to investigate alternative splicing (instead of the conventional case-by case fashion) and integrates all transcripts derived from a gene into a single splicing graph. ASG is a database of splicing graphs for human genes, using transcript information from various major sources (Ensembl, RefSeq, STACK, TIGR and UniGene). Each transcript corresponds to a path in the graph, and alternative splicing is displayed by bifurcations. This representation preserves the relationships between different splicing variants and allows us to investigate systematically all possible putative transcripts. Web interface allows users to display the splicing graphs, to interactively assemble transcripts and to access their sequences as well as neighboring genomic regions. ASG also provide for each gene, an exhaustive pre-computed catalog of putative transcriptsin total more than 1.2 million sequences. It has found that ~65 of the investigated genes show evidence for alternative splicing, and in 5 of the cases, a single gene might produce over 100 transcripts.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 19,2019.Database of tertiary structural modeling results of threading assembly refinement (TASSER) method for all 907 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in human genome. All sequences were collected from GPCR database http://www.gpcr.org/7tm/ and http://www.expasy.org/cgi-bin/lists?7tmrlist.txt. Unlike traditional homology modeling approaches, TASSER modeling does not require solved homologous template structures; moreover, it often refines the structures closer to native. G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), encoded by about 5% of human genes, comprise the largest family of integral membrane proteins and act as cell surface receptors responsible for the transduction of endogenous signal into a cellular response. Although tertiary structural information is crucial for function annotation and drug design, there are few experimentally determined GPCR structures. To address this issue, we employ the recently developed threading assembly refinement (TASSER) method to generate structure predictions for all 907 putative GPCRs in the human genome. Unlike traditional homology modeling approaches, TASSER modeling does not require solved homologous template structures; moreover, it often refines the structures closer to native. These features are essential for the comprehensive modeling of all human GPCRs when close homologous templates are absent. Based on a benchmarked confidence score, approximately 820 predicted models should have the correct folds. The majority of GPCR models share the characteristic seven-transmembrane helix topology, but 45 ORFs are predicted to have different structures. This is due to GPCR fragments that are predominantly from extracellular or intracellular domains as well as database annotation errors. Our preliminary validation includes the automated modeling of bovine rhodopsin, the only solved GPCR in the Protein Data Bank. With homologous templates excluded, the final model built by TASSER has a global C(alpha) root-mean-squared deviation from native of 4.6 angstroms, with a root-mean-squared deviation in the transmembrane helix region of 2.1 angstroms. Models of several representative GPCRs are compared with mutagenesis and affinity labeling data, and consistent agreement is demonstrated. Structure clustering of the predicted models shows that GPCRs with similar structures tend to belong to a similar functional class even when their sequences are diverse. These results demonstrate the usefulness and robustness of the in silico models for GPCR functional analysis. Sponsors: GPCR is funded by the University at Buffalo, Buffalo, New York.

The Daphnia Genomics Consortium (DGC) is an international network of investigators committed to mounting the freshwater crustacean Daphnia as a model system for ecology, evolution and the environmental sciences. Along with research activities, the DGC is: (1) coordinating efforts towards developing the Daphnia genomic toolbox, which will then be available for use by the general community; (2) facilitating collaborative cross-disciplinary investigations; (3) developing bioinformatic strategies for organizing the rapidly growing genome database; and (4) exploring emerging technologies to improve high throughput analyses of molecular and ecological samples. If we are to succeed in creating a new model system for modern life-sciences research, it will need to be a community-wide effort. Research activities of the DGC are primarily focused on creating genomic tools and information. When completed, the current projects will offer a first view of the Daphnia genome''s topography, including regions of high and low recombination, the distribution of transposable, repetitive and regulatory elements, the size and structure of genes and of their neighborhoods. This information is crucial in formulating testable hypotheses relating genetics and demographics to the evolutionary potential or constraints of natural populations. Projects aiming to compile identifiable genes with their function are also underway, together with robust methods to verify these findings. Finally, these tools are being tested, by exploring their uses in key ecological and toxicological investigations. Each project benefits from the leadership and expertise of many individuals. For further details, begin by contacting the project directors. The DGC consists of biologists from a broad spectrum of subdisciplines, including limnology, ecotoxicology, quantitative and population genetics, systematics, molecular biology and evolution, developmental biology, genomics and bioinformatics. In many regards, the rapid early success of the consortium results from its grass-roots origin promoting an international composition, under a cooperative model, with significant scientific breadth. We hold to this approach in building this network and encourage more people to participate. All the while, the DGC is structured to effectively reach specific goals. The consortium includes an advisory board (composed of experts of the various subdisciplines), whose responsibility is to act as the research community''s agent in guiding the development of Daphnia genomic resources. The advisors communicate directly to DGC members, who are either contributing genomic tools or actively seeking funds for this function. The consortium''s main body (given the widespread interest in applying genomic tools in environmental studies) are the affiliates, who make use of these tools for their research and who are soliciting support.

Database of comparative gene mapping between species to assist the mapping of the genes related to phenotypic traits in livestock. The linkage maps, cytogenetic maps, polymerase chain reaction primers of pig, cattle, mouse and human, and their references have been included in the database, and the correspondence among species have been stipulated in the database. AGP is an animal genome database developed on a Unix workstation and maintained by a relational database management system. It is a joint project of National Institute of Agrobiological Sciences (NIAS) and Institute of the Society for Techno-innovation of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (STAFF-Institute), under cooperation with other related research institutes. AGP also contains the Pig Expression Data Explorer (PEDE), a database of porcine EST collections derived from full-length cDNA libraries and full-length sequences of the cDNA clones picked from the EST collection. The EST sequences have been clustered and assembled, and their similarity to sequences in RefSeq, and UniGene determined. The PEDE database system was constructed to store sequences and similarity data of swine full-length cDNA libraries and to make them available to users. It provides interfaces for keyword and ID searches of BLAST results and enables users to obtain sequence data and names of clones of interest. Putative SNPs in EST assemblies have been classified according to breed specificity and their effect on coding amino acids, and the assemblies are equipped with an SNP search interface. The database contains porcine nucleotide sequences and cDNA clones that are ready for analyses such as expression in mammalian cells, because of their high likelihood of containing full-length CDS. PEDE will be useful for researchers who want to explore genes that may be responsible for traits such as disease susceptibility. The database also offers information regarding major and minor porcine-specific antigens, which might be investigated in regard to the use of pigs as models in various medical research applications.
