http://www.omicsoft.com/fusionmap/

An efficient fusion aligner which aligns reads spanning fusion junctions directly to the genome without prior knowledge of potential fusion regions. It detects and characterizes fusion junctions at base-pair resolution. FusionMap can be applied to detect fusion junctions in both single- and paired-end dataset from either gDNA-Seq or RNA-Seq studies. FusionMap runs under both Windows and Linux (requiring MONO) environments. Although it can run on 32 bit machine, it is recommended to run on 64-bit machine with 8GB RAM or more. If you have an ArrayStudio License, you can run the fusion detection easily through its GUI.

http://variant.bioinfo.cipf.es/

Analysis tool that can report the functional properties of any variant in all the human, mouse or rat genes (and soon new model organisms will be added) and the corresponding neighborhoods. Also other non-coding extra-genic regions, such as miRNAs are included in the analysis. It not only reports the obvious functional effects in the coding regions but also analyzes noncoding SNVs situated both within the gene and in the neighborhood that could affect different regulatory motifs, splicing signals, and other structural elements. These include: Jaspar regulatory motifs, miRNA targets, splice sites, exonic splicing silencers, calculations of selective pressures on the particular polymorphic positions, etc. Software analysis pipelines used in the analysis of NGS data are highly modular, heterogeneous, and rapidly evolving. VARIANT can easily be incorporated into a NGS resequencing pipeline either as a CLI or invoked a webservice. It inputs data directly from the most widely used programs for SNV detection., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://stothard.afns.ualberta.ca/downloads/NGS-SNP/

A collection of command-line scripts for providing rich annotations for SNPs identified by the sequencing of transcripts or whole genomes from organisms with reference sequences in Ensembl. Included among the annotations, several of which are not available from any existing SNP annotation tools, are the results of detailed comparisons with orthologous sequences. These comparisons allow, for example, SNPs to be sorted or filtered based on how drastically the SNP changes the score of a protein alignment. Other fields indicate the names of overlapping protein domains or features, and the conservation of both the SNP site and flanking regions. NCBI, Ensembl, and Uniprot IDs are provided for genes, transcripts, and proteins when applicable, along with Gene Ontology terms, a gene description, phenotypes linked to the gene, and an indication of whether the SNP is novel or known. A ?Model_Annotations? field provides several annotations obtained by transferring in silico the SNP to an orthologous gene, typically in a well-characterized species.

https://www.har.mrc.ac.uk/about/mammalian-genetics-unit

It is now widely known that animals share many genes with humans and can suffer from the same diseases, for example diabetes or deafness. Investigating these diseases in animals can provide vital leads to understanding both their causes and ways to treat them in humans. This approach to medical research lies at the heart of work at the MRC Mammalian Genetics Unit (MGU) at Harwell in Oxfordshire. In 1995 the MRC Radiobiology Unit was reconstituted to form two new units, the Radiation and Genome Stability Unit and the MGU. These opened in January 1996, together with the UK Mouse Genome Centre which is now part of MGU, making MRC Harwell a unique campus for multi-disciplinary genetics research. Since MGU's Director Steve Brown took the reins in 1996, the unit has dramatically expanded its scientific scope and increased its personnel from 40 to over 100. It now has 13 research programs encompassing molecular genetics, genomics, genetic manipulation and data analysis at all levels, from single genes to the whole genome. With a combination of cutting-edge facilities and expertise unrivaled in Europe, MGU Harwell has become firmly established as one of the world's leading academic centres for mouse genetics.

http://www.gene-regulation.com/pub/databases.html#transpath

Database on eukaryotic transcription factors, their experimentally-proven binding sites, consensus binding sequences (positional weight matrices) and regulated genes. Its broad compilation of binding sites allows the derivation of positional weight matrices. It can either be used as an encyclopedia, for both specific and general information on signal transduction, or can serve as a network analyzer. Cross-references to important sequence and signature databases such as EMBL/GenBank UniProt/Swiss-Prot InterPro or Ensembl EntrezGene RefSeq are provided. The database is equipped with the tools for data visualization and analysis. It has three modules: the first one is the data, which have been manually extracted, mostly from the primary literature; the second is PathwayBuilder, which provides several different types of network visualization and hence facilitates understanding; the third is ArrayAnalyzer, which is particularly suited to gene expression array interpretation, and is able to identify key molecules within signalling networks (potential drug targets). These key molecules could be responsible for the coordinated regulation of downstream events. Manual data extraction focuses on direct reactions between signalling molecules and the experimental evidence for them, including species of genes/proteins used in individual experiments, experimental systems, materials and methods. This combination of materials and methods is used in TRANSPATH to assign a quality value to each experimentally proven reaction, which reflects the probability that this reaction would happen under physiological conditions. Another important feature in TRANSPATH is the inclusion of transcription factor-gene relations, which are transferred from TRANSFAC, a database focused on transcription regulation and transcription factors. Since interactions between molecules are mainly direct, this allows a complete and stepwise pathway reconstruction from ligands to regulated genes.

Brain Basics provides information on how the brain works, how mental illnesses are disorders of the brain, and ongoing research that helps us better understand and treat disorders. Mental disorders are common. You may have a friend, colleague, or relative with a mental disorder, or perhaps you have experienced one yourself at some point. Such disorders include depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and many others. Some people who develop a mental illness may recover completely; others may have repeated episodes of illness with relatively stable periods in between. Still others live with symptoms of mental illness every day. They can be moderate, or serious and cause severe disability. Through research, we know that mental disorders are brain disorders. Evidence shows that they can be related to changes in the anatomy, physiology, and chemistry of the nervous system. When the brain cannot effectively coordinate the billions of cells in the body, the results can affect many aspects of life. Scientists are continually learning more about how the brain grows and works in healthy people, and how normal brain development and function can go awry, leading to mental illnesses. Brain Basics will introduce you to some of this science, such as: * How the brain develops * How genes and the environment affect the brain * The basic structure of the brain * How different parts of the brain communicate and work with each other * How changes in the brain can lead to mental disorders, such as depression.
