Blender is the free open source 3D content creation suite, available for all major operating systems under the GNU General Public License. Because of the overwhelming success of the first open movie project, Ton Roosendaal, the Blender Foundation''s chairman, has established the Blender Institute. This now is the permanent office and studio to more efficiently organize the Blender Foundation goals, but especially to coordinate and facilitate Open Projects related to 3D movies, games or visual effects.

Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research. Features of Google Scholar * Search diverse sources from one convenient place * Find articles, theses, books, abstracts or court opinions * Locate the complete document through your library or on the web * Learn about key scholarly literature in any area of research How are documents ranked? Google Scholar aims to rank documents the way researchers do, weighing the full text of each document, where it was published, who it was written by, as well as how often and how recently it has been cited in other scholarly literature. * Publishers - Include your publications in Google Scholar * Librarians - Help patrons discover your library''s resources

http://www.broadinstitute.org/mammals/haploreg/haploreg.php

HaploReg is a tool for exploring annotations of the noncoding genome at variants on haplotype blocks, such as candidate regulatory SNPs at disease-associated loci. Using linkage disequilibrium (LD) information from the 1000 Genomes Project, linked SNPs and small indels can be visualized along with their predicted chromatin state in nine cell types, conservation across mammals, and their effect on regulatory motifs. HaploReg is designed for researchers developing mechanistic hypotheses of the impact of non-coding variants on clinical phenotypes and normal variation.

http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastx&BLAST_PROGRAMS=blastx&PAGE_TYPE=BlastSearch&SHOW_DEFAULTS=on&LINK_LOC=blasthome

Web application to search protein databases using a translated nucleotide query. Translated BLAST services are useful when trying to find homologous proteins to a nucleotide coding region. Blastx compares translational products of the nucleotide query sequence to a protein database. Because blastx translates the query sequence in all six reading frames and provides combined significance statistics for hits to different frames, it is particularly useful when the reading frame of the query sequence is unknown or it contains errors that may lead to frame shifts or other coding errors. Thus blastx is often the first analysis performed with a newly determined nucleotide sequence and is used extensively in analyzing EST sequences. This search is more sensitive than nucleotide blast since the comparison is performed at the protein level.

http://bioinformatics.vub.ac.be/databases/databases.html

Downloadable data set designed to assess the performance of both multiple and pairwise (protein) sequence alignment algorithms, and is extremely easy to use. Currently, the database contains 2 sets, each consisting of a number of subsets with related sequences. It''s main features are: * Covers the entire known fold space (SCOP classification), with subsets provided by the ASTRAL compendium * All structures have high quality, with 100% resolved residues * Structure alignments have been derived carefully, using both SOFI and CE, and Relaxed Transitive Alignment * At most 25 sequences in each subset to avoid overrepresentation of large folds* Automated running, archiving and scoring of programs through a few Perl scripts The Twilight Zone set is divided into sequence groups that each represent a SCOP fold. All sequences within a group share a pairwise Blast e-value of at least 1, for a theoretical database size of 100 million residues. Sequence similarity is thus very low, between 0-25% identity, and a (traceable) common evolutionary origin cannot be established between most pairs even though their structures are (distantly) similar. This set therefore represents the worst case scenario for sequence alignment, which unfortunately is also the most frequent one, as most related sequences share less than 25% identity. The Superfamilies set consists of groups that each represent a SCOP superfamily, and therefore contain sequences with a (putative) common evolutionary origin. However, they share at most 50% identity, which is still challenging for any sequence alignment algorithm. Frequently, alignments are performed to establish whether or not sequences are related. To benchmark this, a second version of both the Twilight Zone and the Superfamilies set is provided, in which to each alignment problem a number of false positives, i.e. sequences not related to the original set, are added. Database specifications: * Current version: 1.65 (concurrent with PDB, SCOP and ASTRAL) * Twilight Zone set (with false positives): 209 groups, 1740 (3280) sequences, 10667 (44056) related pairs * Superfamilies set (with false positives): 425 groups, 3280 (6526) sequences, 19092 (79095) related pairs

https://www.genome.wisc.edu/tools/asap.htm

Database and web interface developed to store, update and distribute genome sequence data and gene expression data. ASAP was designed to facilitate ongoing community annotation of genomes and to grow with genome projects as they move from the preliminary data stage through post-sequencing functional analysis. The ASAP database includes multiple genome sequences at various stages of analysis, and gene expression data from preliminary experiments. Use of some of this preliminary data is conditional, and it is the users responsibility to read the data release policy and to verify that any use of specific data obtained through ASAP is consistent with this policy. There are four main routes to viewing the information in ASAP: # a summary page, # a form to query the genome annotations, # a form to query strain collections, and # a form to query the experimental data. Navigational buttons appear on every page allowing users to jump to any of these four points., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.
