THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 15, 2013. This is the official database of the environmental chlamydia genome project. This resource provides access to finished sequence for Parachlamydia-related symbiont UWE25 and to a wide range of manual annotations, automatical analyses and derived datasets. Functional classification and description has been manually annotated according to the Annotation guidelines. Chlamydiae are the major cause of preventable blindness and sexually transmitted disease. Genome analysis of a chlamydia-related symbiont of free-living amoebae revealed that it is twice as large as any of the pathogenic chlamydiae and had few signs of recent lateral gene acquisition. We showed that about 700 million years ago the last common ancestor of pathogenic and symbiotic chlamydiae was already adapted to intracellular survival in early eukaryotes and contained many virulence factors found in modern pathogenic chlamydiae, including a type III secretion system. Ancient chlamydiae appear to be the originators of mechanisms for the exploitation of eukaryotic cells. Environmental chlamydiae have recently been recognized as obligate endosymbionts of free-living amoebae and have been implicated as potential human pathogens. Environmental chlamydiae form a deep branching evolutionary lineage within the medically important order Chlamydiales. Despite their high diversity and ubiquitous distribution in clinical and environmental samples only limited information about genetics and ecology of these microorganisms is available. The Parachlamydia-related Acanthamoeba symbiont UWE25 was therefore selected as representative environmental chlamydia strain for whole genome sequencing. Comparative genome analysis was performed using PEDANT and simap. Sponsors: The environmental chlamydia genome project was funded by the bmb+f (German Federal Ministry of Education and Research) and is part of the Competence Network PathoGenoMiK.

The NCI DIS 3D database is a collection of 3D structures for over 400,000 drugs. The database is an extension of the NCI Drug Information System. The structural information stored in the DIS is only the connection table for each drug. The connection table is just a list of which atoms are connected and how they are connected. It is essentially a searcheable database of three-dimensional structures has been developed from the chemistry database of the NCI Drug Information System (DIS), a file of about 450,000 primarily organic compounds which have been tested by NCI for anticancer activity. The DIS database is very similar in size and content to the proprietary databases used in the pharmaceutical industry; its development began in the 1950s; and this history led to a number of problems in the generation of 3D structures. This information can be searched to find drugs that share similar patterns of connections, which can correlate with similar biological activity. But the cellular targets for drug action, as well as the drugs themselves, are 3 dimensional objects and advances in computer hardware and software have reached the point where they can be represented as such. In many cases the important points of interaction between a drug and its target can be represented by a 3D arrangement of a small number of atoms. Such a group of atoms is called a pharmacophore. The pharmacophore can be used to search 3D databases and drugs that match the pharmacophore could have similar biological activity, but have very different patterns of atomic connections. Having a diverse set of lead compounds increases the chances of finding an active compound with acceptable properties for clinical development. Sponsor: The ICBG are supported by the Cooperative Agreement mechanism, with funds from nine components of the NIH, the National Science Foundation, and the Foreign Agricultural Service of the USDA.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 29, 2016. The need to use human neoplastic tissue under ideal conditions is currently of particular importance due to the development molecular pathology techniques that allow large-scale studies of genetic expression that are also of clinical significance. The Tumour Bank Network (TBN), instigated and coordinated by the Molecular Pathology Programme (MMP) aims to respond to this need by the promoting of Tumour Banks in Spanish hospitals. This will be achieved through the application of homogeneous procedures for the collection, processing and storage of neoplastic and normal tissue samples in such a way as to make molecular studies possible, avoiding that avoid the intrinsic bias of multi-centre studies possible. These Hospital Tumour Banks are based within the Pathology Departments of the collaborating Hospitals, that are interconnected through a computer-based network. In this way, each Centre''s tissue remains in the Hospital itself, thereby playing a key role in the development of the welfare, teaching and research activities within the Hospital. At the same time, it represents a tool to encourage of multi-hospital cancer research and of cooperation between basic and clinical researchers, constituting important collaboration between biomedical disciplines. The design does not correspond to a Central Tumour Bank, but that of a cooperative and coordinated Network of Hospital Banks, based on simple, homogeneous and optimal tissue treatment protocols. This Network is promoted by the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Oncologicas (CNIO), which thereby undertakes the work of coordinating the network, using and maintaining the database, adhering to quality control. The aim of the CNIO's TBN is to acquire neoplastic and control non-neoplastic material of all types of malignant neoplasias, in the form of tissue fixed in formalin and paraffin embedded, of samples that are unfixed or frozen according to conventional methods as set out in Annexe 1 and even, exceptionally as fresh tissue. When other types of samples are required to carry out a specific project, the central office of the TBN will draw up a protocol with the group leading the project for the collection and maintenance of the tissue and clinicopathological data required for the proposed research. These protocols will be disseminated among the Associated Hospitals in order to gather the previously agreed number cases. Basic data surrounding the processing and preservation conditions for each case will be sent to the central office of the Bank, which under no circumstances will reveal the identity of the patient. Any Spanish cancer research team will be able to request tissue from the Tissue Bank Network. Absolute priority will be afforded to projects whose principal researcher belongs to one of the Associated Centres of the TNB, to other institutions with special agreements concerning the exchange of samples, and to the CNIO's researchers.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. Collect, store, and distribute genetic samples from cases and controls of type 1 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy for investigator-driven research into the genetic basis of diabetic nephropathy. As the risk of kidney complications in type 1 diabetes appears to have a considerable genetic component, this study assembled a large data resource for researchers attempting to identify causative genetic variants. The types of data collected allowed traditional case-control testing, a rapid and often powerful approach, and family-based analysis, a robust approach that is not influenced by population substructure.

Data and biospecimen from Rett Syndrome patients shared with the scientific community with the ability to visualize the list of available samples and select those with specific clinical and molecular features. It also contains information on biospecimen samples from x-linked retardation, microdeletion, duplication syndromes, autosomal MR, and retinoblastoma. The bank is active since 1998 and it is located in the Medical Genetics Unit, at the University Hospital of Siena. The bank is divided in three distinct sections: # Rett Syndrome. This section contains samples from patients affected by Rett syndrome, a neurodegenerative disease affecting almost exclusively girls with an estimated frequency of 1:10000-15000 live born. By accessing the section users can see a list of all patients available with their phenotype, the specific MECP2 or CDKL5 mutation if known and the kind of biological samples available for each patient. The availability of this large panel of patients is potentially important for the clarification of the molecular bases of Rett syndrome. In fact, a 20-30 of Rett cases do not have MECP2 or CDKL5 mutations. These patients might bear intronic/promoter MECP2 or CDKL5 mutations or they might have alterations in one or more genes different from MECP2 or CDKL5, as suggested by the identification of various chromosomal rearrangements. To confirm a causative role of these rearrangements, and to identify the relevant gene/s, it is important to collect a great number of patients in which to search for overlapping rearrangements or point mutations in candidate genes. # X-Linked Mental Retardation. This section contains samples collected by the centers belonging to the Italian network on X-linked mental retardation, which includes the laboratory of bank curators (for specific information on the network goals and organization, go to the section page). Mental retardation (MR) is the most frequent cause of serious handicap in humans with an estimated prevalence of 0,3-0,5 for moderate to severe MR (IQ<50) which increases to 1-1,5 when mild MR (IQ 50-70) is included. It is calculated that about 20-25 of mentally retarded males have a mutation in a gene on the X chromosome (X-linked mental retardation). X-linked mental retardation is a genetically heterogeneous condition. This is particularly true for the non-syndromic form (MRX), where MR is the only consistent clinical finding and no distinctive features between patients exist. In this situation the only possibility to group patients from different families is represented by linkage analysis, which needs the availability of large families. However, families linked to the same region demonstrate different causative genes. In these conditions, the number of patients available for analysis is a discriminating factor since a large number of patients need to be tested in order to fully confirm or exclude the involvement of a gene in MRX. # Other. This section of the bank contains biological materials and clinical data of patients with other genetic disorders (different from Rett and X-linked mental retardation). Part of this section is dedicated to Alport syndrome. Services: * Isolation of leukocytes from human peripheral blood samples * Establishment of EBV transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines from human peripheral blood leukocytes. * DNA extraction. * Plasma isolation. * Storage: ** Cryo-preservation of transformed cell lines and primary leukocytes at 135��C ** Storage of DNA at 20 degrees C ** Storage of plasma at 20 degrees C * Distribution of the stored biological samples.
