http://ani.embl.de/4DXpress

This database provides a platform to query and compare gene expression data during the development of the major model animals (zebrafish, drosophila, medaka, mouse). The name 4DXpress stands for expression database in 4D. The 4D (four dimensions) of 4DXpress can be interpreted either as: 3 spatial dimensions plus time, or as 1. species 2. gene 3. developmental stage 4. anatomical structure. The major focus of this database lies in cross species comparison. The high resolution expression data was acquired through whole mount in situ hybridsation-, antibody- or transgenic experiments. Data was integrated from several species specific expression pattern databases, such as ZFIN, BDGP, GXD, MEPD as well as directly submitted by researchers of the participating groups at EMBL. The 4DXpress database is a project within the Centre for Computational Biology at EMBL. It is developed by Yannick Haudry, Thorsten Henrich and Ivica Letunic and coordinated by Thorsten Henrich. Hugo Berube is developing the 4D ArrayExpress Data Warehouse at EBI for integrating in situ data with microarray data.

Database containing the DNA sequence and annotation of the entire human chromosome 7, encompassing nearly 158 million nucleotides of DNA and 1917 gene structures, are presented; the most up to date collation of sequence, gene, and other annotations from all databases (eg. Celera published, NCBI, Ensembl, RIKEN, UCSC) as well as unpublished data. To generate a higher order description, additional structural features such as imprinted genes, fragile sites, and segmental duplications were integrated at the level of the DNA sequence with medical genetic data, including 440 chromosome rearrangement breakpoints associated with disease. The objective of this project is to generate a comprehensive description of human chromosome 7 to facilitate biological discovery, disease gene research and medical genetic applications. There are over 360 disease-associated genes or loci on chromosome 7. A major challenge ahead will be to represent chromosome alterations, variants, and polymorphisms and their related phenotypes (or lack thereof), in an accessible way. In addition to being a primary data source, this site serves as a weighing station for testing community ideas and information to produce highly curated data to be submitted to other databases such as NCBI, Ensembl, and UCSC. Therefore, any useful data submitted will be curated and shown in this database. All Chromosome 7 genomic clones (cosmids, BACs, YACs) listed in GBrowser and in other data tables are freely distributed.

http://distild.jensenlab.org/

The DistiLD database aims to increase the usage of existing genome-wide association studies (GWAS) results by making it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes in their chromosomal context. The database performs three important tasks: # published GWAS are collected from several sources and linked to standardized, international disease codes ICD10 codes) # data from the International HapMap Project are analyzed to define linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks onto which SNPs and genes are mapped # the web interface makes it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes within LD blocks. Users can query the database by diseases, SNPs or genes. No matter which of the three query modes was used, an intermediate page will be shown listing all the studies that matched the search with a link to the corresponding publication. The user can select either all studies related to a certain disease or one specific study for which to view the related LD blocks. The DistiLD resource integrates information on: * Associations between Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and diseases from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) * Links between SNPs and genes based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) data from HapMap For convenience, we provide the complete datasets as two (zipped) tab-delimited files. The first file contains GWAS results mapped to LD blocks. The second file contains all SNPs and genes assigned to each LD block.

http://newt-omics.mpi-bn.mpg.de/index.php

Newt-omics is a database, which enables researchers to locate, retrieve and store data sets dedicated to the molecular characterization of newts. Newt-omics is a transcript-centered database, based on an Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) data set from the newt, covering ~50,000 Sanger sequenced transcripts and a set of high-density microarray data, generated from regenerating hearts. Newt-omics also contains a large set of peptides identified by mass spectrometry, which was used to validate 13,810 ESTs as true protein coding. Newt-omics is open to implement additional high-throughput data sets without changing the database structure. Via a user-friendly interface Newt-omics allows access to a huge set of molecular data without the need for prior bioinformatical expertise. The newt Notopthalmus viridescens is the master of regeneration. This organism is known for more than 200 years for its exceptional regenerative capabilities. Newts can completely replace lost appendages like limb and tail, lens and retina and parts of the central nervous system. Moreover, after cardiac injury newts can rebuild the functional myocardium with no scar formation. To date only very limited information from public databases is available. Newt-Omics aims to provide a comprehensive platform of expressed genes during tissue regeneration, including extensive annotations, expression data and experimentally verified peptide sequences with yet no homology to other publicly available gene sequences. The goal is to obtain a detailed understanding of the molecular processes underlying tissue regeneration in the newt, that may lead to the development of approaches, efficiently stimulating regenerative pathways in mammalians. * Number of contigs: 26594 * Number of est in contigs: 48537 * Number of transcripts with verified peptide: 5291 * Number of peptides: 15169

http://www.nematodes.org/nembase4/

NEMBASE is a comprehensive Nematode Transcriptome Database including 63 nematode species, over 600,000 ESTs and over 250,000 proteins. Nematode parasites are of major importance in human health and agriculture, and free-living species deliver essential ecosystem services. The genomics revolution has resulted in the production of many datasets of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from a phylogenetically wide range of nematode species, but these are not easily compared. NEMBASE4 presents a single portal into extensively functionally annotated, EST-derived transcriptomes from over 60 species of nematodes, including plant and animal parasites and free-living taxa. Using the PartiGene suite of tools, we have assembled the publicly available ESTs for each species into a high-quality set of putative transcripts. These transcripts have been translated to produce a protein sequence resource and each is annotated with functional information derived from comparison with well-studied nematode species such as Caenorhabditis elegans and other non-nematode resources. By cross-comparing the sequences within NEMBASE4, we have also generated a protein family assignment for each translation. The data are presented in an openly accessible, interactive database. An example of the utility of NEMBASE4 is that it can examine the uniqueness of the transcriptomes of major clades of parasitic nematodes, identifying lineage-restricted genes that may underpin particular parasitic phenotypes, possible viral pathogens of nematodes, and nematode-unique protein families that may be developed as drug targets.

The Hemorrhagic Fever Viruses (HFV) sequence database collects and stores sequence data and provides a user-friendly search interface and a large number of sequence analysis tools, following the model of the highly regarded and widely used Los Alamos HIV database. The database uses an algorithm that aligns each sequence to a species-wide reference sequence. The NCBI RefSeq database is used for this; if a reference sequence is not available, a Blast search finds the best candidate. Using this method, sequences in each genus can be retrieved pre-aligned. Hemorrhagic fever viruses (HFVs) are a diverse set of over 80 viral species, found in 10 different genera comprising five different families: arena-, bunya-, flavi-, filo- and togaviridae. All these viruses are highly variable and evolve rapidly, making them elusive targets for the immune system and for vaccine and drug design. About 55,000 HFV sequences exist in the public domain today. A central website that provides annotated sequences and analysis tools will be helpful to HFV researchers worldwide.
