The vertebrate genome annotation (Vega) database.

Nucleic acids research | 2008

The Vertebrate Genome Annotation (Vega) database (http://vega.sanger.ac.uk) was first made public in 2004 and has been designed to view manual annotation of human, mouse and zebrafish genomic sequences produced at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. Since its initial release, the number of human annotated loci has more than doubled to close to 33 000 and now contains comprehensive annotation on 20 of the 24 human chromosomes, four whole mouse chromosomes and around 40% of the zebrafish Danio rerio genome. In addition, we offer manual annotation of a number of haplotype regions in mouse and human and regions of comparative interest in pig and dog that are unique to Vega.

Knockout Mouse Project (tool)

RRID:SCR_005571

Project is providing critical tools for understanding gene function and genetic causes of human diseases. Project KOMP is focused on generating targeted knockout mutations in mouse ES cells. Second phase, KOMP2, relies upon successful generation of strains of knockout mice from these ES cells. Information from JAX about their contributions to KOMP project.

SNP2NMD (tool)

RRID:SCR_007941

A database for human SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) that result in PTCs (premature termination codons) and trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The SNP2NMD interfaces provide extensive genetic information on and graphical views of the queried SNP, gene, and disease terms.
