CAMO (Cell Adhesion Molecule Ontology) is a set of standard vocabulary that provide a hierarchical description of cell adhesion molecules and their functions. We compiled a list for cell adhesion molecules by integrating Gene Ontology annotations, domain structure information, and keywords query against NCBI Entrez Gene annotations. Totally 496 unique human genes were identified to function as cell adhesion molecules, which is by far the most comprehensive dataset including cadherin, immunoglobulin/FNIII, integrin, neurexin, neuroligan, and catenin families. CAMO was constructed as a directed acyclic graph (DAG) using DAG-Edit to input, manage and update data. We annotated each term with name, definition and source references, as well as the relationship to other terms, based on manual reviews of domain architecture and functional annotations. If vertices represent terms and the relationships between terms are represented by edges, the terms in a DAG can be connected via a directed graph without cycles. CAMO thus provides a hierarchical description of functions of CAMs with five top-level categories: CAM gene families, CAM genetics, CAM regulation, CAM expression and CAM diseases. Each top-level term is further divided into several categories to describe the functions in detail.

http://www.xenbase.org/anatomy/xao.do?method=display

A structured, controlled vocabulary of the anatomy and development of the African clawed frogs (Xenopus laevis and tropicalis), organized in a graphical structure. Tissues are shown as being part of other tissues and the timing of their development is indicated by start and end stages. The lineage of tissues is represented by develops from relationships between different tissues at different developmental stages. Many items have been classified according to the Common Anatomy Reference Ontology. The Xenopus Anatomical Ontology will be used to annotate Xenopus gene expression patterns and mutant and morphant phenotypes. Its robust developmental map will enable powerful database searches and data analyses. They encourage community recommendations for updates and improvements to the ontology.

http://brainethics.org/

There are a lot of fine blogs out there covering the avalance of current neuroscience research. With this blog Thomas Rams��y & Martin Skov want to highlight the many consequences of this growing understanding of the human brain. We are especially interested in two types of consequences: Tinkering with the brain and What is it like to be a human being? * Tinkering with the brain: First and foremost, with an understanding of how the brain works comes the possibility of tinkering with it. We already use billions of dollars every year on psychopharmocologia trying to treat depression, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder and other mental diseases. But should we also use our knowledge of the brain to treat undesirable mental traits such as pedophilia or sociopathy? And what about enhancing normal brains? Clearly, evolution hasn''t endowed us with the most efficient brain imaginable. Shouldn''t we do something about its many shortcomings? * What is it like to be a human being?: Secondly, our view of human behavior is sure to change with our improved understanding of the human brain. Our knowledge of core human faculties such as language, social reasoning, aesthetics, and economics is already being challenged by modern neuroscience, yielding multiple hard questions. Do we have a free will? Is the mind innate or plastic? If people are not responsible for their actions (since all actions are caused by blind molecular processes) does our legal system still make sense? In short, will modern neuroscience come to completely redefine human nature? We try to discuss contemporary research literature, not just news reports. Although we will occasionally also target popular science reports, since we believe they play an important role in dissemining lessons from the lab. And in the future we plan to also post interviews with interesting researchers, as well as link to our own publications in journals and books. Additionally, the latest and most important books in the multidisciplinary field of neuroscience, cognition, psychology, ethics and economics are presented.

http://neurolex.org/wiki/Main_Page

A freely editable semantic wiki for community-based curation of the terms used in Neuroscience. Entries are curated and eventually incorporated into the formal NIFSTD ontology. NeuroLex also includes a Resource branch for community members to freely add neuroscience relevant resources that do not become part of NIFSTD ontology but rather make up the NIF Registry. As part of the NIF, we provide a simple search interface to many different sources of neuroscience information and data. To make this search more effective, we are constructing ontologies to help organize neuroscience concepts into category hierarchies, e.g., neuron is a cell. These categories provide the means to perform more effective searches and also to organize and understand the information that is returned. But an important adjunct to this activity is to clearly define all of the terms that we use to describe our data, e.g., anatomical terms, techniques, organism names. Because wikis provide an easy interface for communities to contribute their knowledge, we started the NeuroLex.

http://dictybase.org/Dicty_Info/dicty_anatomy_ontology.html

An ontology to describe Dictyostelium where the structural makeup of Dictyostelium and its composing parts including the different cell types, throughout its life cycle is defined. There are two main goals for this new tool: (1) promote the consistent annotation of Dictyostelium-specific events, such as phenotypes (already in use), and in the future, of gene expression information; and (2) encourage researchers to use the same terms with the same intended meaning. To this end, all terms are defined. The complete ontology can be browsed using EBI''s ontology browser tool. (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ontology-lookup/browse.do?ontName=DDANAT)

To satisfy the need for standardized terminologies several ontologies, we are developing the Ontology of Craniofacial Development and Malformation. When complete, this ontology will describe several realms of anatomy and development relevant to FaceBase, including: * Human craniofacial anatomy, including developmental progressions * Craniofacial malformations * Mouse craniofacial anatomy * Mappings between mouse and human anatomy These ontologies are currently undergoing active development. As a result, these files should be considered very preliminary. They may not work correctly, and contents will almost certainly undergo significant change. Five (sub) ontologies in this zip archive correspond to the categories described above. * OCDM - Ontology of Craniofacial Development and Malformation: currently imports the CHO, CMO, and the CHMMO. * CHO - Craniofacial Human Ontoloogy: normal adult human craniofacial anatomy derived from the FMA. * CMO - Craniofacial Mouse Ontology: normal adult mouse craniofacial anatomy * CHMMO - Craniofacial Human-Mouse Mapping Ontology: mappings of classes in the * CHO to related (homologous) structures in the CMO. CFMO - Craniofacial Malformation Ontology: abnormal human anatomy, includes the CHO All ontologies are in Protege Frames format (requires Protege 3.x). Ontologies refer to other ontologies via the Protege include mechanism. The CHMMO includes the CHO and the CMO. The OCDM (which is the umbrella ontology) includes all of the rest. Future releases will include translations to the OWL language.

http://www.clo-ontology.org/

A community-driven ontology that is developed to standardize and integrate cell line information and support computer-assisted reasoning. Its focus is on permanent cell lines from culture collections. Upper ontology structures that frame the skeleton of CLO include Basic Formal Ontology and Relation Ontology. Cell lines contained in CLO are associated with terms from other ontologies such as Cell Type Ontology, NCBI Taxonomy, and Ontology for Biomedical Investigation. A common design pattern for the cell line is used to model cell lines and their attributes, the Jurkat cell line provides ane xample. Currently CLO contains over 36,000 cell line entries obtained from ATCC, HyperCLDB, Coriell, and bymanual curation. The cell lines are derived from 194 cell types, 656 anatomical entries, and 217 organisms. The OWL-based CLO is machine-readable and can be used in various applications. The CLO development has become a community effort with international collaborations. The development consortium includes experts from all over the world: the USA, Europe, and Japan.
