MIPS Ustilago maydis Database Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
MIPS Ustilago maydis Database (RRID:SCR_007563) | data or information resource, database | The MIPS Ustilago maydis Genome Database aims to present information on the molecular structure and functional network of the entirely sequenced, filamentous fungus Ustilago maydis. The underlying sequence is the initial release of the high quality draft sequence of the Broad Institute. The goal of the MIPS database is to provide a comprehensive genome database in the Genome Research Environment in parallel with other fungal genomes to enable in depth fungal comparative analysis. The specific aims are to: 1. Generate and assemble Whole Genome Shotgun sequence reads yielding 10X coverage of the U. maydis genome 2. Integrate the genomic sequence assembly with physical maps generated by Bayer CropScience 3. Perform automated annotation of the sequence assembly 4. Align the strain 521 assembly with the FB1 assembly provided by Exelixis 5. Release the sequence assembly and results of our annotation and analysis to public Ustilago maydis is a basidiomycete fungal pathogen of maize and teosinte. The genome size is approximately 20 Mb. The fungus induces tumors on host plants and forms masses of diploid teliospores. These spores germinate and form haploid meiotic products that can be propagated in culture as yeast-like cells. Haploid strains of opposite mating type fuse and form a filamentous, dikaryotic cell type that invades plant tissue to reinitiate infection. Ustilago maydis is an important model system for studying pathogen-host interactions and has been studied for more than 100 years by plant pathologists. Molecular genetic research with U. maydis focuses on recombination, the role of mating in pathogenesis, and signaling pathways that influence virulence. Recently, the fungus has emerged as an excellent experimental model for the molecular genetic analysis of phytopathogenesis, particularly in the characterization of infection-specific morphogenesis in response to signals from host plants. Ustilago maydis also serves as an important model for other basidiomycete plant pathogens that are more difficult to work with in the laboratory, such as the rust and bunt fungi. Genomic sequence of U. maydis will also be valuable for comparative analysis of other fungal genomes, especially with respect to understanding the host range of fungal phytopathogens. The analysis of U. maydis would provide a framework for studying the hundreds of other Ustilago species that attack important crops, such as barley, wheat, sorghum, and sugarcane. Comparisons would also be possible with other basidiomycete fungi, such as the important human pathogen C. neoformans. Commercially, U. maydis is an excellent model for the discovery of antifungal drugs. In addition, maize tumors caused by U. maydis are prized in Hispanic cuisine and there is interest in improving commercial production. The complete putative gene set of the Broad Institute''s second release is loaded into the database and in addition all deviating putative genes from a putative gene set produced by MIPS with different gene prediction parameters are also loaded. The complete dataset will then be analysed, gene predictions will be manually corrected due to combined information derived from different gene prediction algorithms and, more important, protein and EST comparisons. Gene prediction will be restricted to ORFs larger than 50 codons; smaller ORFs will be included only if similarities to other proteins or EST matches confirm their existence or if a coding region was postulated by all prediction programs used. The resulting proteins will be annotated. They will be classified according to the MIPS classification catalogue receiving appropriate descriptions. All proteins with a known, characterized homolog will be automatically assigned to functional categories using the MIPS functional catalog. All extracted proteins are in addition automatically analysed and annotated by the PEDANT suite. | drug, environment, filamentous, functional, fungal, fungal genome databases, fungus, gene, genetic, basidiomycete, cell, codon, culture, dikaryotic, diploid, genome, genomic, germinate, haploid, host, human, infection, maize, mating, meiotic, model, molecular, morphogenesis, network, orf, pathogen, pathologist, phytopathogen, phytopathogenesis, plant, protein, recombination, sequence, signal, spore, strain, structure, teliospore, teosinte, tissue, tumor, ustilago maydis, virulence, yeast | nif-0000-21276 | SCR_007563 | MUMDB | 2026-08-29 11:29:53 | 9 | ||||||||||

Olfactory Bulb Odor Map DataBase (OdorMapDB) Resource Report Resource Website |
Olfactory Bulb Odor Map DataBase (OdorMapDB) (RRID:SCR_007287) | OdorMapDB | atlas, data or information resource, database | OdorMapDB is designed to be a database to support the experimental analysis of the molecular and functional organization of the olfactory bulb and its basis for the perception of smell. It is primarily concerned with archiving, searching and analyzing maps of the olfactory bulb generated by different methods. The first aim is to facilitate comparison of activity patterns elicited by odor stimulation in the glomerular layer obtained by different methods in different species. It is further aimed at facilitating comparison of these maps with molecular maps of the projections of olfactory receptor neuron subsets to different glomeruli, especially for gene targeted animals and for antibody staining. The main maps archived here are based on original studies using 2-deoxyglucose and on current studies using high resolution fMRI in mouse and rat. Links are also provided to sites containing maps by other laboratories. OdorMapDB thus serves as a nodal point in a multilaboratory effort to construct consensus maps integrating data from different methodological approaches. OdorMapDB is integrated with two other databases in SenseLab: ORDB, a database of olfactory receptor genes and proteins, and OdorDB, a database of odor molecules that serve as ligands for the olfactory receptor proteins. The combined use of the three integrated databases allows the user to identify odor ligands that activate olfactory receptors that project to specific glomeruli that are involved in generating the odor activity maps. | odor, male, urine, mouse, methyl anisole, patchone, indole, helional, butyrophenone, fenchone, olfactory bulb, fmri, rat, odor ligand, olfactory receptor, smell |

ChromDB- the chromatin database Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
ChromDB- the chromatin database (RRID:SCR_007597) | data or information resource, database | ChromDB is a chromatin database. Three types of sequences are included in the database: genomic-based (predominantly plant sequences); transcript-based (EST contigs or cDNAs for plants lacking a sequenced genome); and NCBI RefSeq sequences for a variety of model animal organisms. The Gene Record Page for any sequence indicates the type of sequence. The broad mission of ChromDB is display, annotate, and curate sequences of two broad functional classes of biologically important proteins: chromatin-associated proteins (CAPs) and RNA interference-associated proteins. Plant proteins are the major focus of the work support by The Plant Genome Research Program (PGRP) of the National Science Foundation. Our intent is to produce intensively curated sequence information and make it available to the research and teaching community in support of comparative analyses toward understanding the chromatin proteome in plants, especially in important crop species. In order to do a comparative analysis, it is necessary to include non-plant proteins in the database. Non-plant genes are not curated to the degree carried out for plants and to automate the process of data import, our non-plant genes are from the RefSeq database of NCBI. We reason that the inclusion of non-plant, model organisms will broaden the relevance and usefulness of ChromDB to the entire chromatin community and will provide a more complete data set for phylogenetic analyses in support of the evolution of the plant chromatin proteome. ChromDB is funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation Plant Genome Research Project(#DBI-0421679). | chromatin, chromatin-associated protein, crop species chromatin, plant chromatin proteome, plant protein, rna interference-associated proteins, FASEB list | has parent organization: University of Arizona; Arizona; USA | nif-0000-02661 | SCR_007597 | ChromDB | 2026-08-29 11:30:02 | 62 | |||||||||
