http://www.phenologs.org/

Database for identifying orthologous phenotypes (phenologs). Mapping between genotype and phenotype is often non-obvious, complicating prediction of genes underlying specific phenotypes. This problem can be addressed through comparative analyses of phenotypes. We define phenologs based upon overlapping sets of orthologous genes associated with each phenotype. Comparisons of >189,000 human, mouse, yeast, and worm gene-phenotype associations reveal many significant phenologs, including novel non-obvious human disease models. For example, phenologs suggest a yeast model for mammalian angiogenesis defects and an invertebrate model for vertebrate neural tube birth defects. Phenologs thus create a rich framework for comparing mutational phenotypes, identify adaptive reuse of gene systems, and suggest new disease genes. To search for phenologs, go to the basic search page and enter a list of genes in the box provided, using Entrez gene identifiers for mouse/human genes, locus ids for yeast (e.g., YHR200W), or sequence names for worm (e.g., B0205.3). It is expected that this list of genes will all be associated with a particular system, trait, mutational phenotype, or disease. The search will return all identified model organism/human mutational phenotypes that show any overlap with the input set of the genes, ranked according to their hypergeometric probability scores. Clicking on a particular phenolog will result in a list of genes associated with the phenotype, from which potential new candidate genes can identified. Currently known phenotypes in the database are available from the link labeled ''Find phenotypes'', where the associated gene can be submitted as queries, or alternately, can be searched directly from the link provided.

http://proportal.mit.edu/

ProPortal is a database containing genomic, metagenomic, transcriptomic and field data for the marine cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus. Our goal is to provide a source of cross-referenced data across multiple scales of biological organization--from the genome to the ecosystem--embracing the full diversity of ecotypic variation within this microbial taxon, its sister group, Synechococcus and phage that infect them. The site currently contains the genomes of 13 Prochlorococcus strains, 11 Synechococcus strains and 28 cyanophage strains that infect one or both groups. Cyanobacterial and cyanophage genes are clustered into orthologous groups that can be accessed by keyword search or through a genome browser. Users can also identify orthologous gene clusters shared by cyanobacterial and cyanophage genomes. Gene expression data for Prochlorococcus ecotypes MED4 and MIT9313 allow users to identify genes that are up or downregulated in response to environmental stressors. In addition, the transcriptome in synchronized cells grown on a 24-h light-dark cycle reveals the choreography of gene expression in cells in a ''natural'' state. Metagenomic sequences from the Global Ocean Survey from Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus and phage genomes are archived so users can examine the differences between populations from diverse habitats. Finally, an example of cyanobacterial population data from the field is included.

http://cbl.uh.edu/ORION/research/software

ORION is our neuron reconstruction software package developed for the morphological reconstruction of neurons from confocal and multiphoton microscopy data. It accepts raw neuron stack data as input and it is capable of reconstructing the neuron structure, visualizing the output, and exporting the reconstruction in a variety of formats. We are developing tools that will enable Neuroscientists to explore single neuron function via sophisticated image analysis. Advanced optical imaging can produce both structural and functional data and is at the forefront of experimentally exploring the fast, small-scale dynamics of living neurons. Further, compartmental modeling of neuronal function enables rapid testing of hypotheses and estimating experimentally inaccessible parameters. Combining these two techniques will afford unprecedented capabilities in the study of single neuron function. Our software utility bridges the two Neuroscience techniques by rapidly, accurately, and robustly generating, from structural image data, a cylindrical morphology model suitable for simulating neuronal function.

Both new demonstrations and new video interviews will continually be added to the site. Manuals for each of the demonstration are being created and available as pdf files for download. Most of the demonstrations are pretty straightforward - but in some cases, especially if you would like to collect data - it might be a good idea to look over the manual. There are different ways in which you can get involved and contribute to the site. Your involvement can range from sending us feedback about the demonstrations and videos, suggestions for new materials, or the simple submission of corrections, to the creation or publication of demonstrations and videos that meet our criteria. Down the road we will make the submission process easier, but for now please contact swerner (at) uidaho dot edu for more information. NSF student grant Undergraduate students can apply through goCognitive for an $1,100 grant to co-produce a new video interview with a leading researcher in the field of cognitive neuroscience.

A database integrating data from the bee brain EST sequencing project with data from sequencing and gene research projects from other organisms, primarily the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. The goal of Bee-ESTdb is to provide updated information on the genes of the honey bee, currently using annotation primarily from flies to suggest cellular roles, biological functions, and evolutionary relationships. The site allows searches by sequence ID, EST annotations, Gene Ontology terms, Contig ID and using BLAST. Very nice resource for those interested in comparative genomics of brain. A normalized unidirectional cDNA library was made in the laboratory of Prof. Bento Soares, University of Iowa. The library was subsequently subtracted. Over 20,000 cDNA clones were partially sequenced from the normalized and subtracted libraries at the Keck Center, resulting in 15,311 vector-trimmed, high-quality, sequences with an average read length of 494 bp. and average base-quality of 41. These sequences were assembled into 8966 putatively unique sequences, which were tested for similarity to sequences in the public databases with a variety of BLAST searches. The Clemson University Genomics Institute is the distributor of these public domain cDNA clones. For information on how to purchase an individual clone or the entire collection, please contact www.genome.clemson.edu/orders/ or generobi (at) life.uiuc.edu.

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.

T-REX is a free, platform-independent online tool that allows for an integrated, rapid, and more robust analysis of T-RFLP data. Despite increasing popularity and improvements in terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) and other microbial community fingerprinting techniques, there are still numerous obstacles that hamper the analysis of these datasets. Many steps are required to process raw data into a format ready for analysis and interpretation. These steps can be time-intensive, error-prone, and can introduce unwanted variability into the analysis. Accordingly, we developed T-REX, free, online software for the processing and analysis of T-RFLP data. Analysis of T-RFLP data generated from a multiple-factorial study was performed with T-REX. With this software, we were able to i) label raw data with attributes related to the experimental design of the samples, ii) determine a baseline threshold for identification of true peaks over noise, iii) align terminal restriction fragments (T-RFs) in all samples (i.e., bin T-RFs), iv) construct a two-way data matrix from labeled data and process the matrix in a variety of ways, v) produce several measures of data matrix complexity, including the distribution of variance between main and interaction effects and sample heterogeneity, and vi) analyze a data matrix with the additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) model.
