http://www.stanford.edu/group/nolan/retroviral_systems/phx.html

A second-generation retrovirus producer lines for the generation of helper free ecotropic and amphotropic retroviruses. The lines are based on the 293T cell line (a human embryonic kidney line transformed with adenovirus E1a and carrying a temperature sensitive T antigen co-selected with neomycin). The unique feature of this cell line is that it is highly transfectable with either calcium phosphate mediated transfection or lipid-based transfection protocols-- up to 50% or higher of cells can be transiently transfected. The lines were created by placing into 293T cells constructs capable of producing gag-pol, and envelope protein for ecotropic and amphotropic viruses. The lines offered advantages over previous stable systems in that virus can be produced in just a few days. Academic and non-profit laboratories may obtain the Phoenix cells from either Allele Biotechnology or the National Gene Vector Bank. The vectors may be obtained from Addgene. They are no longer distributing these reagents from the lab.

http://lab.rockefeller.edu/casanova/HGC

Data set containing a gene-specific connectome file for each human gene and computer programs for ranking lists of genes within a gene-specific connectome, clustering and plotting the genes by the functional genomic alignment (FGA) approach, and generating gene-specific connectomes. The programs were developed and tested on Mac and Linux systems. The external software required for running these programs is open-source and free of charge. The HGC is the set of all biologically plausible routes, distances, and degrees of separation between all pairs of human genes. A gene-specific connectome contains the set of all available human genes sorted on the basis of their predicted biological proximity to the specific gene of interest. The HGC is a powerful approach for human genotype-phenotype high-throughput studies, for which it can be used to rank any list of genes within a gene-specific connectome for an experimentally validated core gene. Functional genomic alignment (FGA) is equivalent to traditional multiple sequence alignment (MSA), except that it clusters genes in trees on the basis of the functional biological distance between them predicted by HGC, rather than on the basis of molecular evolutionary genetic distance. This method is therefore more suitable for disease and phenotypic studies.

http://hazmap.nlm.nih.gov/

Occupational health database designed for health and safety professionals and for consumers seeking information about the adverse effects of workplace exposures to chemical and biological agents. The main links in Haz-Map are between chemicals and occupational diseases. These links have been established using current scientific evidence. Haz-Map shows the diseases linked to each agent and the agents linked to each disease. Agents are chemical such as formaldehyde, or biological such as grain dust. Haz-Map links jobs and hazardous job tasks with occupational diseases and their symptoms. In Haz-Map, chronic occupational diseases are linked to both jobs and industries, while acute diseases and infectious diseases are linked only to jobs. Cancers are not linked to jobs, industries or findings. The information in Haz-Map comes from textbooks, journal articles, the Documentation of the Threshold Limit Values (published by ACGIH), and electronic databases such as NLM's Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB). Haz-Map staff classifies, summarizes, and regularly updates the information found in the database.

FULL-malaria is a database for a full-length-enriched cDNA library from the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Because of its medical importance, this organism is the first target for genome sequencing of a eukaryotic pathogen; the sequences of two of its 14 chromosomes have already been determined. However, for the full exploitation of this rapidly accumulating information, correct identification of the genes and study of their expression are essential. Using the oligo-capping method, this database has produced a full-length-enriched cDNA library from erythrocytic stage parasites and performed one-pass reading. The database consists of nucleotide sequences of 2490 random clones that include 390 (16%) known malaria genes according to BLASTN analysis of the nr-nt database in GenBank; these represent 98 genes, and the clones for 48 of these genes contain the complete protein-coding sequence (49%). On the other hand, comparisons with the complete chromosome 2 sequence revealed that 35 of 210 predicted genes are expressed, and in addition led to detection of three new gene candidates that were not previously known. In total, 19 of these 38 clones (50%) were full-length. From these observations, it is expected that the database contains approximately 1000 genes, including 500 full-length clones. It should be an invaluable resource for the development of vaccines and novel drugs. Full-malaria has been updated in at least three points. (i) 8934 sequences generated from the addition of new libraries added so that the database collection of 11,424 full-length cDNAs covers 1375 (25%) of the estimated number of the entire 5409 parasite genes. (ii) All of its full-length cDNAs and GenBank EST sequences were mapped to genomic sequences together with publicly available annotated genes and other predictions. This precisely determined the gene structures and positions of the transcriptional start sites, which are indispensable for the identification of the promoter regions. (iii) A total of 4257 cDNA sequences were newly generated from murine malaria parasites, Plasmodium yoelii yoelii. The genome/cDNA sequences were compared at both nucleotide and amino acid levels, with those of P.falciparum, and the sequence alignment for each gene is presented graphically. This part of the database serves as a versatile platform to elucidate the function(s) of malaria genes by a comparative genomic approach. It should also be noted that all of the cDNAs represented in this database are supported by physical cDNA clones, which are publicly and freely available, and should serve as indispensable resources to explore functional analyses of malaria genomes. Sponsors: This database has been constructed and maintained by a Grant-in-Aid for Publication of Scientific Research Results from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS). This work was also supported by a Special Coordination Funds for Promoting Science and Technology from the Science and Technology Agency of Japan (STA) and a Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research on Priority Areas from the Ministry of Education, Science, Sports and Culture of Japan.

RIKEN Arabidopsis Transposon mutants is a series of mutant lines which have a Ds transposon in the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana Nssen ecotype (background by Fedoroff and Smith). This web page provides information on the mutants produced in our laboratory. Each mutant line is assigned by stipulated line codes (ex. 13-4480-1). We determined the flanking sequences of Ds insertion for each independent line. Transposon insertion sites of mutants were estimated by a BLASTN homology against the genome sequence database of Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia ecotype. The closest genes (predicted by AGI) to the transposon insertion sites were picked up. The results of the BLASTP homology search against the nr database of NCBI for the closest genes have been collected for keyword searches.
