An experiment in web-database access to large multi-dimensional data sets using a standardized experimental platform to determine if the larger scientific community can be given simple, intuitive, and user-friendly web-based access to large microarray data sets. All data in PEPR is also available via NCBI GEO. The structure and goals of PEPR differ from other mRNA expression profiling databases in a number of important ways. * The experimental platform in PEPR is standardized, and is an Affymetrix - only database. All microarrays available in the PEPR web database should ascribe to quality control and standard operating procedures. A recent publication has described the QC/SOP criteria utilized in PEPR profiles ( The Tumor Analysis Best Practices Working Group 2004 ). * PEPR permits gene-based queries of large Affymetrix array data sets without any specialized software. For example, a number of large time series projects are available within PEPR, containing 40-60 microarrays, yet these can be simply queried via a dynamic web interface with no prior knowledge of microarray data analysis. * Projects in PEPR originate from scientists world-wide, but all data has been generated by the Research Center for Genetic Medicine, Children''''s National Medical Center, Washington DC. Future developments of PEPR will allow remote entry of Affymetrix data ascribing to the same QC/SOP protocols. They have previously described an initial implementation of PEPR, and a dynamic web-queried time series graphical interface ( Chen et al. 2004 ). A publication showing the utility of PEPR for pharmacodynamic data has recently been published ( Almon et al. 2003 ).

Database of functional annotation for alternatively spliced genes. It uses a gene-modeling algorithm that combines the genome-based expressed sequence tag (EST) clustering and graph-theoretic transcript assembly procedures. It contains genome, mRNA, and EST sequence data, as well as a genome browser application. Organisms included in the database are human, dog, chicken, fruit fly, mouse, rhesus, rat, worm, and zebrafish. Annotation is provided for the whole transcriptome, not just the alternatively spliced genes. Several viewers and applications are provided that are useful for the analysis of the transcript structure and gene expression. The summary viewer shows the gene summary and the essence of other annotation programs. The genome browser and the transcript viewer are available for comparing the gene structure of splice variants. Changes in the functional domains by alternative splicing can be seen at a glance in the transcript viewer. Two unique ways of analyzing gene expression is also provided. The SAGE tags deduced from the assembled transcripts are used to delineate quantitative expression patterns from SAGE libraries available publicly. The cDNA libraries of EST sequences in each cluster are used to infer qualitative expression patterns.

http://degradome.uniovi.es

A database of human, chimpanzee, mouse, and rat proteases and protease inhibitors, as well as as the growing number of hereditary diseases caused by mutations in protease genes. Analysis of the human and mouse genomes has allowed us to annotate 581 human, 580 chimpanzee, 667 mouse, and 655 rat protease genes. Proteases are classified in five different classes according to their mechanism of catalysis. Proteases are a diverse and important group of enzymes representing >2% of the human, chimpanzee, mouse and rat genomes. This group of enzymes is implicated in numerous physiological processes. The importance of proteases is illustrated by the existence of 99 different hereditary diseases due to mutations in protease genes. Furthermore, proteases have been implicated in multiple human pathologies, including vascular diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, neurodegenerative processes, and cancer. During the last ten years, our laboratory has identified and characterized more than 60 human protease genes. Due to the importance of proteolytic enzymes in human physiology and pathology, we have recently introduced the concept of Degradome, as the complete repertoire of proteases expressed by a tissue or organism. Thanks to the recent completion of the human, chimpanzee, mouse, and rat genome sequencing projects, we were able to analyze and compare for the first time the complete protease repertoire in those mammalian organisms, as well as the complement of protease inhibitor genes.

Portal providing identifiers for Antibodies, Model Organisms, and Tools (software, databases, services) created in support of the Resource Identification Initiative, which aims to promote research resource identification, discovery, and reuse. The portal offers a central location for obtaining and exploring Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs) - persistent and unique identifiers for referencing a research resource. A critical goal of the RII is the widespread adoption of RRIDs to cite resources in the biomedical literature and other places that reference their generation or use. RRIDs use established community identifiers where they exist, and are cross-referenced in their system where more than one identifier exists for a single resource.

http://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/recount/

RNA-seq gene count datasets built using the raw data from 18 different studies. The raw sequencing data (.fastq files) were processed with Myrna to obtain tables of counts for each gene. For ease of statistical analysis, they combined each count table with sample phenotype data to form an R object of class ExpressionSet. The count tables, ExpressionSets, and phenotype tables are ready to use and freely available. By taking care of several preprocessing steps and combining many datasets into one easily-accessible website, we make finding and analyzing RNA-seq data considerably more straightforward.

http://www.uniprot.org/program/Chordata

Data set of manually annotated chordata-specific proteins as well as those that are widely conserved. The program keeps existing human entries up-to-date and broadens the manual annotation to other vertebrate species, especially model organisms, including great apes, cow, mouse, rat, chicken, zebrafish, as well as Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. A draft of the complete human proteome is available in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot and one of the current priorities of the Chordata protein annotation program is to improve the quality of human sequences provided. To this aim, they are updating sequences which show discrepancies with those predicted from the genome sequence. Dubious isoforms, sequences based on experimental artifacts and protein products derived from erroneous gene model predictions are also revisited. This work is in part done in collaboration with the Hinxton Sequence Forum (HSF), which allows active exchange between UniProt, HAVANA, Ensembl and HGNC groups, as well as with RefSeq database. UniProt is a member of the Consensus CDS project and thye are in the process of reviewing their records to support convergence towards a standard set of protein annotation. They also continuously update human entries with functional annotation, including novel structural, post-translational modification, interaction and enzymatic activity data. In order to identify candidates for re-annotation, they use, among others, information extraction tools such as the STRING database. In addition, they regularly add new sequence variants and maintain disease information. Indeed, this annotation program includes the Variation Annotation Program, the goal of which is to annotate all known human genetic diseases and disease-linked protein variants, as well as neutral polymorphisms.

http://neibank.nei.nih.gov

An integrated resource for genomics and bioinformatics in vision research including expressed sequence tag (EST) data and sequence-verified cDNA clones for multiple eye tissues of several species, web-based access to human eye-specific SAGE data through EyeSAGE, and comprehensive, annotated databases of known human eye disease genes and candidate disease gene loci. All expression- and disease-related data are integrated in EyeBrowse, an eye-centric genome browser. NEIBank provides a comprehensive overview of current knowledge of the transcriptional repertoires of eye tissues and their relation to pathology. The data can be interrogated in several ways. Specific gene names can be entered into the search window. Alternatively, regions of the genome can be displayed. For example, entering two STS markers separated by a semicolon (e.g. RH18061;RH80175) allows the display of the entire chromosomal region associated with the mapping of a specific disease locus. ESTs for each tissue can then be displayed to help in the selection of candidate genes. In addition, sequences can be entered into a BLAST search and rapidly aligned on the genome, again showing eye derived ESTs for the same region. To see the same region at the full UCSC site, cut and paste the location from the position window of the genome browser. EyeBrowse includes a custom track display SAGE data for human eye tissues derived from the EyeSAGE project. The track shows the normalized sum of SAGE tag counts from all published eye-related SAGE datasets centered on the position of each identifiable Unigene cluster. This indicates relative activity of each gene locus in eye. Clicking on the vertical count bar for a particular location will bring up a display listing gene details and linking to specific SAGE counts for each eye SAGE library and comparisons with normalized sums for neural and non-neural tissues. To view or alter settings for the EyeSAGE track on EyeBrowse, click on the vertical gray bar at the left of the display. Other custom tracks display known eye disease genes and mapped intervals for candidate loci for retinal disease, cataract, myopia and cornea disease. These link back to further information at NEIBank.
