Searching across hundreds of databases
The Mouse Genome Database, (MGD, http://www.informatics.jax.org/), integrates genetic, genomic and phenotypic information about the laboratory mouse, a primary animal model for studying human biology and disease. MGD data content includes comprehensive characterization of genes and their functions, standardized descriptions of mouse phenotypes, extensive integration of DNA and protein sequence data, normalized representation of genome and genome variant information including comparative data on mammalian genes. Data within MGD are obtained from diverse sources including manual curation of the biomedical literature, direct contributions from individual investigator's laboratories and major informatics resource centers such as Ensembl, UniProt and NCBI. MGD collaborates with the bioinformatics community on the development of data and semantic standards such as the Gene Ontology (GO) and the Mammalian Phenotype (MP) Ontology. MGD provides a data-mining platform that enables the development of translational research hypotheses based on comparative genotype, phenotype and functional analyses. Both web-based querying and computational access to data are provided. Recent improvements in MGD described here include the association of gene trap data with mouse genes and a new batch query capability for customized data access and retrieval.

Worldwide authority that approves standardized nomenclature to gene name and symbol, short form abbreviation, for each known human gene and stores all approved symbols in HGNC database. Approved human gene nomenclature. Database of gene symbols. Manually curated genes into family sets based on shared characteristics such as homology, function or phenotype. Data for protein-coding genes, pseudogenes, non-coding RNAs, phenotypes and genomic features.
View all literature mentionsDatabase for genetic, genomic, phenotype, and disease data generated from rat research. Centralized database that collects, manages, and distributes data generated from rat genetic and genomic research and makes these data available to scientific community. Curation of mapped positions for quantitative trait loci, known mutations and other phenotypic data is provided. Facilitates investigators research efforts by providing tools to search, mine, and analyze this data. Strain reports include description of strain origin, disease, phenotype, genetics, immunology, behavior with links to related genes, QTLs, sub-strains, and strain sources.
