A database of brain neuroanatomic volumetric observations spanning various species, diagnoses, and structures for both individual and group results. A major thrust effort is to enable electronic access to the results that exist in the published literature. Currently, there is quite limited electronic or searchable methods for the data observations that are contained in publications. This effort will facilitate the dissemination of volumetric observations by making a more complete corpus of volumetric observations findable to the neuroscience researcher. This also enhances the ability to perform comparative and integrative studies, as well as metaanalysis. Extensions that permit pre-published, non-published and other representation are planned, again to facilitate comparative analyses. Design strategy: The principle organizing data structure is the "publication". Publications report on "groups" of subjects. These groups have "demographic" information as well as "volume" information for the group as a whole. Groups are comprised of "individuals", which also have demographic and volume information for each of the individuals. The finest-grained data structure is the "individual volume record" which contains a volume observation, the units for the observation, and a pointer to the demographic record for individual upon which the observation is derived. A collection of individual volumes can be grouped into a "group volume" observation; the group can be demographically characterized by the distribution of individual demographic observations for the members of the group.

http://genomequebec.mcgill.ca/PReMod

Database that describes more than 100,000 computational predicted transcriptional regulatory modules within the human genome. These modules represent the regulatory potential for 229 transcription factors families and are the first genome-wide / transcription factor-wide collection of predicted regulatory modules for the human genome. The algorithm used involves two steps: (i) Identification and scoring of putative transcription factor binding sites using 481 TRANSFAC 7.2 position weight matrices (PWMs) for vertebrate transcription factors. To this end, each non-coding position of the human genome was evaluated for its similarity to each PWM using a log-likelihood ratio score with a local GC-parameterized third-order Markov background model. Corresponding orthologous positions in mouse and rat genomes were evaluated similarly and a weighted average of the human, mouse, and rat log-likelihood scores at aligned positions (based on a Multiz (Blanchette et al. 2004) genome-wide alignment of these three species) was used to define the matrix score for each genomic position and each PWM. (ii) Detection of clustered putative binding sites. To assign a module score to a given region, the five transcription factors with the highest total scoring hits are identified, and a p-value is assigned to the total score observed of the top 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 factors. The p-value computation takes into consideration the number of factors involved (1 to 5), their total binding site scores, and the length and GC content of the region under evaluation. Users can retrieve all information for a given region, a given PWM, a given gene and so on. Several options are given for textual output or visualization of the data.

http://mirnamap.mbc.nctu.edu.tw

A database of experimentally verified microRNAs and miRNA target genes in human, mouse, rat, and other metazoan genomes. In addition to known miRNA targets, three computational tools previously developed, such as miRanda, RNAhybrid and TargetScan, were applied for identifying miRNA targets in 3'-UTR of genes. In order to reduce the false positive prediction of miRNA targets, several criteria are supported for filtering the putative miRNA targets. Furthermore, miRNA expression profiles can provide valuable clues for investigating the properties of miRNAs, such tissue specificity and differential expression in cancer/normal cell. Therefore, we performed the Q-PCR experiments for monitoring the expression profiles of 224 human miRNAs in eighteen major normal tissues in human. The cross-reference between the miRNA expression profiles and the expression profiles of its target genes can provide effective viewpoint to understand the regulatory functions of the miRNA.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on February 08, 2013. A repository for physical mapping data of the human X chromosome that aims at providing a global view of genomic data at a chromosomal level including an integrated physical, genetic, transcript and sequence map of the human X chromosome. This implies acquiring, understanding and formatting an enormous amount of experimental results and can only be accomplished progressively. We have chosen to start the integration process with YAC maps generated by the community. These provide the basis for future higher resolution physical maps, as well as emerging transcript and sequence maps. The current content of IXDB therefore reflects this situation, with the emphasis placed on YAC mapping data. Due to their immediate value, IXDB has also started to systematically include bacterial clone contig maps and EST data. Currently IXDB does not store sequence data, although links to nucleic sequence databases are provided.

TACMASS collects, preserves, and banks biospecimens obtained from Arizona Cancer Center surgical patients who are seen by University Medical Center surgeons and oncologists. Biospecimens collected at the time of surgery include fresh surgical tissue, blood and urine. Serum, plasma and genomic DNA are harvested from the whole blood. AZCC Members and collaborators may request the use of banked biospecimens through TACMASS. The patient's surgeon or oncologist is responsible for consenting the patient for submission of surgical specimens to the AZCC BioRepository (IRB #06-0609-04, Setsuko Chambers, PI). The surgeon and the Department of Pathology attending physicians and residents are responsible for identifying appropriate tissue for banking that will not compromise pathological diagnosis. Tumor and/or normal adjacent tissue, identified by gross examination, that will not be needed for pathological diagnosis are preserved by fixing in formalin, snap freezing, and/or fixing in RNALater. Histological diagnosis is rendered on each piece of formalin-fixed and snap frozen tissue by Hematoxylin and Eosin staining (H&E). Everyone involved in submitting specimens to the Tumor Bank must maintain a current CITI Certification.

http://compbio.uthsc.edu/miRSNP/

Database of naturally occurring DNA variations in microRNA (miRNA) seed regions and miRNA target sites. MicroRNAs pair to the transcripts of protein-coding genes and cause translational repression or mRNA destabilization. SNPs and INDELs in miRNAs and their target sites may affect miRNA-mRNA interaction, and hence affect miRNA-mediated gene repression. The PolymiRTS database was created by scanning 3'UTRs of mRNAs in human and mouse for SNPs and INDELs in miRNA target sites. Then, the potential downstream effects of these polymorphisms on gene expression and higher-order phenotypes are identified. Specifically, genes containing PolymiRTSs, cis-acting expression QTLs, and physiological QTLs in mouse and the results of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of human traits and diseases are linked in the database. The PolymiRTS database also includes polymorphisms in target sites that have been supported by a variety of experimental methods and polymorphisms in miRNA seed regions.
