http://sourceforge.net/projects/primerdesigner/

High throughput PCR primer design software. Target regions defined through a rich set of descriptors, such as Ensembl accessions and arbitrary genomic coordinates, may be specified. Primer pairs are then selected computationally to produce a minimal amplicon set capable of tiling across the specified target regions. As part of the tiling process, primer pairs are computationally screened to meet the criteria for success with one of two PCR amplification protocols.

http://rostlab.org/services/nlsdb/

A database of nuclear localization signals (NLSs) and of nuclear proteins targeted to the nucleus by NLS motifs. NLSs are short stretches of residues mediating transport of nuclear proteins into the nucleus. The database contains 114 experimentally determined NLSs that were obtained through an extensive literature search. Using "in silico mutagenesis" this set was extended to 308 experimental and potential NLSs. This final set matched over 43% of all known nuclear proteins and matches no currently known non-nuclear protein. NLSdb contains over 6000 predicted nuclear proteins and their targeting signals from the PDB and SWISS-PROT/TrEMBL databases. The database also contains over 12 500 predicted nuclear proteins from six entirely sequenced eukaryotic proteomes (Homo sapiens, Mus musculus, Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans, Arabidopsis thaliana and Saccharomyces cerevisiae). NLS motifs often co-localize with DNA-binding regions. This observation was used to also annotate over 1500 DNA-binding proteins. From this site you can: * Query NLSdb * Find out how to use NLSdb * Browse the entries in NLSdb * Find out if your protein has an NLS using PredictNLS * Predict subcellular localization of your protein using LOCtree

Maintains and distributes chromosome aberration stocks that provide primarily mouse models for Down syndrome. The Resource currently provides models for Down syndrome research, including: Rb(6.16)24Lub x Rb(16.17)7Bnr F1 hybrids that are used to produce Chr 16 trisomy (Ts16) embryos, which have many of the fetal developmental features of DS, and; Ts(1716)65Dn, segmental trisomy mice that survive to adulthood and have many of the features of DS. The Resource also includes stocks with selected reciprocal translocations involving Chr 16 and some Chr 16 transgenic stocks. In addition, a large number of Robertsonian chromosome stocks are held as frozen embryos in the Cryopreservation Resource. Each mouse chromosome is present in at least two different Robertsonian chromosomes in these strains so that specific trisomies for each of the 19 mouse autosomes can be produced. Breeding pairs and individual mice are provided.

http://www.mged.org/Workgroups/MAGE/mage-ml.html

A language / data exchange format designed to describe and communicate information about microarray based experiments that is based on XML and can describe microarray designs, microarray manufacturing information, microarray experiment setup and execution information, gene expression data and data analysis results. MAGE-ML has been automatically derived from Microarray Gene Expression Object Model (MAGE-OM), which is developed and described using the Unified Modelling Language (UML) -- a standard language for describing object models. Descriptions using UML have an advantage over direct XML document type definitions (DTDs), in many respects. First they use graphical representation depicting the relationships between different entities in a way which is much easier to follow than DTDs. Second, the UML diagrams are primarily meant for humans, while DTDs are meant for computers. Therefore MAGE-OM should be considered as the primary model, and MAGE-ML will be explained by providing simplified fragments of MAGE-OM, rather then XML DTD or XML Schema. (from the description by Ugis Sarkans) The field of gene expression experiments has several distinct technologies that a standard must include. These include single vs. dual channel experiments, cDNA vs. oligonucleotides. Because of these different technologies and different types of gene expression experiments, it is not expected that all aspects of the standard will be used by all organizations. Given the massive amount of data associated with a single set of experiments, it is felt that Extensible Markup Language (XML) is the best way to describe the data. The use of a Document Type Definition (DTD) allows a well-defined tag set, a vocabulary, to describe the domain of gene expression experiments. It also has the virtue of compressing very well so that files in an XML format compress to ten percent of their original size. XML is now widely accepted as a data exchange format across multiple platforms.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 17, 2013. The Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility of the Jackson Laboratory (NMF) was established to produce new neurological mouse models that could serve as experimental models for the exploration of basic neurobiological mechanisms and diseases. The protocols are available. The impetus for the program resulted from the recognition that * the value of genomic data would remain limited unless more information about the functionality of its individual components became available, and * the task of linking genes to specific behavior would best be accomplished by employing a combination of different approaches. In an effort to complement already existing programs, the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility decided to use: a random, genome-wide approach to mutagenesis, i.e. N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) as the mutagen; a three-generation back-cross breeding scheme to focus on the detection of recessive mutations; behavioral screens selective for the detection of phenotypes deemed useful for the program goals. Protocols: * Genetics ** Production of Mice for a Genome-Wide ENU Mutagenesis Screen ** Production of Mice using Chemical Mutagenesis of Mouse ES Cells * Protocols ** Step by step procedures-- Mouse mutagenesis with ENU ** Step by step procedures-- ES Cell mutagenesis with EMS * Phenotyping: Overview * Protocols:(currently only screens marked * are in use) ** Acoustic startle response (ASR) ** Auditory brainstem response (ABR) ** CLAMSTM(former CCMS) ** Creatine kinase ** Developmental Screen * ** Eye and Vision * ** Gait Analysis ** Gustation ** Observation * ** Seizure threshold * ** Additional Background Information

http://braininfo.rprc.washington.edu

Portal to neuroanatomical information on the Web that helps you identify structures in the brain and provides a variety of information about each structure by porting you to the best of 1500 web pages at 100 other neuroscience sites. BrainInfo consists of three basic components: NeuroNames, a developing database of definitions of neuroanatomic structures in four species, their most common acronyms and their names in eight languages; NeuroMaps, a digital atlas system based on 3-D canonical stereotaxic atlases of rhesus macaque and mouse brains and programs that enable one to map data to standard surface and cross-sectional views of the brains for presentation and publication; and the NeuroMaps precursor: Template Atlas of the Primate Brain, a 2-D stereotaxic atlas of the longtailed (fascicularis) macaque brain that shows the locations of some 250 architectonic areas of macaque cortex. The NeuroMaps atlases will soon include a number of overlays showing the locations of cortical areas and other neuroscientific data in the standard frameworks of the macaque and mouse atlases. Viewers are encouraged to use NeuroNames as a stable source of unique standard terms and acronyms for brain structures in publications, illustrations and indexing systems; to use templates extracted from the NeuroMaps macaque and mouse brain atlases for presenting neuroscientific information in image format; and to use the Template Atlas for warping to MRIs or PET scans of the macaque brain to estimate the stereotaxic locations of structures.
