Database of the most recent sequence updates and annotations for the L. major genome. New annotations are constantly being added to keep up with published manuscripts and feedback from the Trypanosomatid research community. You may search by Protein Length, Molecular Mass, Gene Type, Date, Location, Protein Targeting, Transmembrane Helices, Product, GO, EC, Pfam ID, Curation and Comments, and Dbxrefs. BLAST and other tools are available. Leishmania species cause a spectrum of human diseases in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. We have sequenced the 36 chromosomes of the 32.8-megabase haploid genome of Leishmania major (Friedlin strain) and predict 911 RNA genes, 39 pseudogenes, and 8272 protein-coding genes, of which 36% can be ascribed a putative function. These include genes involved in host-pathogen interactions, such as proteolytic enzymes, and extensive machinery for synthesis of complex surface glycoconjugates. The Pathogen Genomics group at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute played a major role in sequencing the genome of Leishmania major (see Ivens et al.) Details of the centres involved and which chromosomes they sequenced, are given. The sequence data were obtained by adopting several parallel approaches, including complete cosmid sequencing, whole chromosome shotguns and/or BAC sequencing/skimming. The Leishmania parasite is an intracellular pathogen of the immune system targeting macrophages and dendritic cells. The disease Leishmaniasis affects the populations of 88 counties worldwide with symptoms ranging from disfiguring cutaneous and muco-cutaneous lesions that can cause widespread destruction of mucous membranes to visceral disease affecting the haemopoetic organs. In collaboration with GeneDB, the EuPathDB genomic sequence data and annotations are regularly deposited on TriTrypDB where they can be integrated with other datasets and queried using customized queries.

Community ontology to provide standard terms for annotating mammalian phenotypic data. It has a hierarchical structure that permits a range of detail from high-level, broadly descriptive terms to very low-level, highly specific terms. This range is useful for annotating phenotypic data to the level of detail known and for searching for this information using either broad or specific terms as search criteria. Your input is welcome.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on April 24, 2012. (no longer being funded) The NIH Microarray Consortium provides for-fee services to a community of NIH grantees, together with a more limited set of services to the public. The primary goal of this consortium is to move basic and translational research forward through acquisition and dissemination of high quality genomic data. This site includes a repository of microarray data sets and offers one-click links to public projects. These datasets were generated by various researchers on these platforms: Affymetrix, Agilent, Ambion, cDNA, Illumina, and Operon. The species currently covered are: Arabidopsis, Bovine, chicken, C. Elegans, Drosophila, Human, Macaca mulatta (Rhesus macaque), Mouse, Rat, Songbird, Xenopus, Yeast, and zebra finch. Basic search functions allows users to choose multiple options for finding the projects that interest them, and raw data files can also be downloaded after user registration. Web-based data analysis tools are also available. Scientists can analyze microarray data from the consortium repository or investigators can upload outside data for analysis.

http://www.jurgott.org/linkage/ListSoftware.html

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 4th,2023. Listing of computer software for the gene mapping community on the following topics: genetic linkage analysis for human pedigree data, QTL analysis for animal/plant breeding data, genetic marker ordering, genetic association analysis, haplotype construction, pedigree drawing, and population genetics. The inclusion of a program should not be interpreted as an endorsement to that program from us. In the last few years, new technology produces new types of genetic data, and the scope of genetic analyses change dramatically. It is no longer obvious whether a program should be included or excluded from this list. Topics such as next-generation-sequencing (NGS), gene expression, genomics annotation, etc. can all be relevant to a genetic study, yet be specialized topics by themselves. Though programs on variance calling from NSG can be in, those can sequence alignment might be out; programs on eQTL can be in, those on differential expression might be out. This page was created by Dr. Wentian Li, when he was at Columbia University (1995-1996). It was later moved to Rockefeller University (1996-2002), and now takes its new home at North Shore LIJ Research Institute (2002-now). The present copy is maintained by Jurg Ott as a single file. More than 240 programs have been listed by December 2004, more than 350 programs by August 2005, close to 400 programs by December 2006, and close to 480 programs by November 2008, and over 600 programs by October 2012. A version of the searchable database was developed by Zhiliang Hu of Iowa State University, and a recent round of updating was assisted by Wei JIANG of Harbin Medical School. Some earlier software can be downloaded from EBI: ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/software/linkage_and_mapping/ (Linkage and Mapping Software Repository), and http://genamics.com/software/index.htm may contain archived copy of some programs.

Database of key numbers in molecular and cell biology--the quantitative properties of biological systems of interest to computational, systems and molecular cell biologists. Contents of the database range from cell sizes to metabolite concentrations, from reaction rates to generation times, from genome sizes to the number of mitochondria in a cell. Along with the numbers, you'll find the relevant references to the original literature, useful comments, and related numbers. While always of importance to biologists, having numbers in hand is becoming increasingly critical for experimenting, modeling, and analyzing biological systems. BioNumbers was motivated by an appreciation of how long it can take to find even the simplest number in the vast biological literature. All numbers are taken directly from a literature source and that reference is provided with the number. BioNumbers is designed to be highly searchable and queries can be performed by keywords or browsed by menus. BioNumbers is a collaborative community platform where registered users can add content and make comments on existing data. All new entries and commentary are curated to maintain high quality.
