THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 18,2025. The National B Virus Resource Center is located in the Viral Immunology Center of Georgia State Universitys Department of Biology. Their laboratory is studying viruses that directly affect the central nervous system of infected hosts. Current projects in the laboratory are focused on the molecular biology of human and nonhuman primate alphaherpesviruses and the diseases they cause, immune response characterization, antiviral strategies, including drug discovery and high-throughput drug screening within unique, high containment laboratory suites. They are also actively engaged in the study of unique reoviruses that have the capacity to infect the central nervous systems of non human primates, langur viruses, and a newly isolated mangaby herpesvirus. Alphaherpesviruses target the central nervous system of susceptible hosts, and subsequently establish latent infections generally without severely damaging the host. There may be an initial acute phase when the virus successfully replicates in peripheral tissue of the host. This replication, when it occurs, induces a series of specific immune functions that can serve as markers of infection. We use these markers to design, develop and implement diagnostic assays that will be useful during the management of clinical disease. Each herpesvirus coexists peacefully with the natural host in which it has co-evolved, but when the viruses for any reason find themselves no longer in the natural host, the usual host:parasite relationship may change dramatically. In some closely related hosts the virus can replicate and, in some cases, pathogenesis of the infection is radically more severe than that which occurs in the natural host. For example, this can be seen when New World monkeys are infected with humans herpesviruses, e.g., HSV-1 or HSV-2, or when humans are infected with B virus from a macaque, a member of the Old World monkey family. Their studies focus on the mechanisms by which virus kills the host and how that process can be circumvented with early identification, appropriate antiviral drugs, and in the future, effective vaccines. We continually screen the efficacy of existing as well as novel antiviral agents to inhibit the growth of viruses that can potentially cross into the human population, either through occupational exposure or through more subtle contact. Their laboratory provides a global resource funded by National Institutes of Healths National Center for Research Resources to assist in the identification of zoonotic disease transmissions and develop enhanced strategies to detect virus in macaques. They particularly focus on the transmission of B virus from Asian monkeys to humans who come in contact with them. Members of the genus Macaca include rhesus monkeys, cynomolgus macaques, snow macaques, as well as all other macaques. If the macaque is in the midst of the acute or recurrent infection with B, virus can be transmitted to people who handle these monkeys through cuts, scratches, splashes, bites, or even contaminated equipment or surfaces, i.e., fomites. To counter the effects of this virus, the NIH and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have instituted a critical set of guidelines for institutions to follow in the event of exposures. Their laboratory provides immediate support to these cases to assist in the rapid diagnosis of B virus infections and to determine the efficacy of selected treatment. Lifetime patient monitoring is provided to identify possible reactivation disease and to better track this unique herpesvirus as it has begun its existence in the human populations. Sponsors: The viral immunology center is funded by National Institutes of Healths National Center for Research Resources.

At Brain Injury Alliance of Kentucky (BIAK), a 501(c)(3) non-profit agency, our sole mission is to serve Kentucky citizens whose lives have been affected by brain injury. We do this through advocacy, education, prevention, research, service and support. BIAK links survivors of brain injury and their families to support from others with similar experience; provides them with education and information about living and coping with brain injury; assists them in locating resources for financial assistance; and seeks to connect people with sources of emotional support. BIAK began as an outgrowth of a Lexington area support group in the early 1980s. Family members, medical staff and others felt the need to expand the services and support to reach statewide. The state office was moved to Louisville and incorporated in 1986. BIAK now has offices and staff in Louisville and Lexington. BIAK seeks to share its philosophy, experience and skills with survivors, family members, students, caregivers, administrators, health professionals, legislators, the lay community and all those who desire to make a difference in the life of individuals with brain injuries and their families. At BIAK you will find information about brain injury. We define brain injury as any injury to the brain including injury received from a fall, a stroke, trauma, anoxia, infection, and tumors or other illnesses. Each year, a growing number of Kentucky citizens are affected by brain tumors. These may range from benign tumors to aggressive cancers. The Michael Quinlan Brain Tumor program recently joined BIAK to provide service and support to individuals and families who have been affected by brain tumors. There is always help available to you and your family.

International group of researchers interested in providing standardized gene nomenclature for chicken genes. A Chicken Gene Annotation Tool is available from CGNC-UK which assigns chicken nomenclature based on predicted orthology to human genes. The CGNC-US database includes CGNC-UK information and adds manually biocurated from biocurators and interested contributors. A Human Chicken Ortholog Predictions Search is available. Both resources are part of a united CGNC effort and nomenclature data is shared and co-ordinated between these two resources. They strongly encourage researchers with domain knowledge to participate in this nomenclature effort by requesting a login and providing gene nomenclature for their genes of interest. Please contact them for further information or assistance. The AGNC works in conjunction with public resources such as NCBI and Ensembl and in consultation with existing nomenclature committees, including the Chicken Gene Nomenclature Committee (CGNC).

http://www.hgsc.bcm.tmc.edu/content/honey-bee-genome-project

The HGSC has sequenced the honey bee, Apis mellifera. The version 4.0 assembly was released in March 2006 and published in October 2006. The genome sequence is being upgraded with additional sequence coverage. The honey bee is important in the agricultural community as a producer of honey and as a facilitator of pollination. It is a model organism for studying the following human health issues: immunity, allergic reaction, antibiotic resistance, development, mental health, longevity and diseases of the X chromosome. In addition, biologists are interested in the honey bee's social organization and behavioral traits. This project was proposed to the HGSC by a group of dedicated insect biologists, headed by Gene Robinson. Following a workshop at the HGSC and a honey bee white paper, the HGSC began the project in 2002. A 6-fold coverage WGS, BAC sequence from pooled arrays, and an initial genome assembly (Amel_v1.0) were released beginning in 2003. This has been a challenging project with difficulty in recovering AT-rich regions. The WGS data had lower coverage in AT-rich regions and BAC data from clones showed evidence of internal deletions. Additional reads from AT enriched DNA addressed these underrepresented regions. The current assembly Amel_4.0 was produced with Atlas and includes 2.7 million reads (1.8 Gb) or 7.5x coverage of the (clonable) genome. About 97% of STSs, 98% of ESTs, and 96% of cDNAs are represented in the 231 Mb assembly. About 2,500 reads were also produced from a strain of Africanized honey bee and SNPs were extracted. These were released in dbSNP and the NCBI Trace Archive. Analysis of the genome by a consortium of 20 labs has been completed. This produced a gene list derived from five different methods melded through the GLEAN software. Publications include a main paper in Nature and up to forty companion papers in Genome Research and Insect Molecular Biology. Sponsors: Sequencing of the honey bee is jointly funded by National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) and the Department of Agriculture (USDA). Multiple drones from the same queen (strain DH4) were obtained from Danny Weaver of B. Weaver Apiaries. All libraries were made from DNA isolated from these drones. The honey bee BAC library (CHORI-224) was prepared by Pieter de Jong and Katzutoyo Osoegawa at the Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute.
