THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on January 4,2023. IgBLAST was developed at NCBI to facilitate analysis of immunoglobulin V region sequences in GenBank. In addition to performing a regular BLAST search, IgBLAST has several additional functions: - Reports the germline V, D and J gene matches to the query sequence. - Annotates the immunoglobulin domains (FWR1 through FWR3). - Matches the returned hits (for databases other than germline genes) to the closest germline V genes, making it easier to identify related sequences. - Reveals the V(D)J junction details such as nucleotide homology between the ends of V(D)J segments and N nucleotide insertions. D and J gene reporting is only for nucleotide sequence search and requires a stretch of five or more nucleotide identity between the query and D or J genes. Sponsors: This resource is supported by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, a division of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.

With Trajectory Directed Ensemble Sampling (TraDES) create large ensembles of high-quality protein structures quickly, ranging from near-native to partially unfolded to intrinsically unfolded. TraDES is a system for directly controlling and sampling protein conformational space. TraDES has been previously used for measuring the vastness of protein conformational space and testing the hypothesis of a brute force solution to the protein folding problem. Over 10 Billion protein structures have been produced by TraDES software in previous distributed computing experiments. The package is comprised of binary executable programs and accessory programs and scripts as well as protein structure data files that map out protein conformational space in a probabilistic way. The main programs are: * trades - generates protein structures following the Trajectory Distribution (see below) * seq2trj - makes Trajectory Distributions from sequences for sampling * str2tr - makes Trajectory Distributions from 3D structures for sampling Trajectory Distributions - Controlling the Sampling of Conformational Space The concept of the trajectory distribution may be new to many protein scientists. A trajectory distribution is simply a map of available conformational space at an amino acid residue. NMR scientists are the primary users of the TraDES package.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, Documented on August 12, 2014. Data, grouped by chromosome, available as flat files for download, of identified DNA polymorphisms (SNPs) in 15 commonly used strains of inbred laboratory mice. Perlegen's SNP, genotype (empirical and imputed), haplotype, trace, and PCR primer data has been compiled with NCBI Mouse Build information to produce data files for public use. Using high-density oligonuclueotide array technology, the study identified over 8 million SNPs and other genetic differences between these strains and the previously sequenced C57BL/6J reference strains (Phase 1). By leveraging data provided by Mark Daly's research team at the Broad Institute, genotypes were also predicted for 40 other common strains (Phase 2). Under an extension to the contract, Eleazar Eskin's group at UCLA has used this data to evaluate SNP associations with phenotypes from the Mouse Phenome Project (the Mouse Phenome Database), and to construct haplotype maps for a total of 94 inbred strains (the Mouse HapMap Project). SNP and genotype positions have been mapped from their original reference coordinates to NCBI Mouse Build 37 coordinates. Note that C57BL6/J strain was not selected for re-sequencing as this data would have been almost entirely redundant with the NCBI reference sequence. Since we did not actually determine genotypes for C57BL6/J, we did not submit genotypes for this strain to dbSNP. However, implicit genotypes for C57BL6/J can be obtained from the reference sequence at each SNP position (the reference allele is the first allele in the ALLELES column). The data is available for download in two different compressed file formats. The files are saved as both PC .zip files and Unix compressed .gz files. At this website, you can: * Learn more about the goals of the Perlegen mouse resequencing project. * Learn more about the array-based resequencing technology used in the project. * Download the SNPs, genotypes, and other data generated by the project, plus sequences of the long-range PCR primers used for SNP discovery. * Browse the mouse genome for SNPs. * View the haplotype blocks within the mouse genome. Mouse Genome Browser The Mouse Genome Browser can be used to visualize genes and the SNPs discovered in this study of genome-wide DNA variation in 15 commonly used, genetically diverse strains of inbred laboratory mice. The reference genome is the C57BL/6J strain NCBI build 37 mouse sequence. In addition to the experimentally-derived genotypes for the original 15 strains, the imputed genotypes for 40 additional inbred mouse strains can also be accessed. Mouse Haplotype Analysis The sequences of 16 commonly used, genetically diverse strains of inbred laboratory mice were analyzed to determine their haplotype structure. The Ancestry Browser shows which ancestral sequence each inbred strain most resembles, along with statistics on the pairwise similarity between the ancestral strains. The Haplotype Viewer shows the haplotype block boundaries and the pairwise similarity for all 56 strains: the 15 used for SNP discovery, the reference strain (C57BL/6J), and the 40 additional strains for which the genotypes were imputed.

Data set of a molecular taxonomy of lung carcinoma, the leading cause of cancer death in the United States and worldwide. Using oligonucleotide microarrays, researchers analyzed mRNA expression levels corresponding to 12,600 transcript sequences in 186 lung tumor samples, including 139 adenocarcinomas resected from the lung. Hierarchical and probabilistic clustering of expression data defined distinct sub-classes of lung adenocarcinoma. Among these were tumors with high relative expression of neuroendocrine genes and of type II pneumocyte genes, respectively. Retrospective analysis revealed a less favorable outcome for the adenocarcinomas with neuroendocrine gene expression. The diagnostic potential of expression profiling is emphasized by its ability to discriminate primary lung adenocarcinomas from metastases of extra-pulmonary origin. These results suggest that integration of expression profile data with clinical parameters could aid in diagnosis of lung cancer patients.

http://www.uniprot.org/program/Chordata

Data set of manually annotated chordata-specific proteins as well as those that are widely conserved. The program keeps existing human entries up-to-date and broadens the manual annotation to other vertebrate species, especially model organisms, including great apes, cow, mouse, rat, chicken, zebrafish, as well as Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. A draft of the complete human proteome is available in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot and one of the current priorities of the Chordata protein annotation program is to improve the quality of human sequences provided. To this aim, they are updating sequences which show discrepancies with those predicted from the genome sequence. Dubious isoforms, sequences based on experimental artifacts and protein products derived from erroneous gene model predictions are also revisited. This work is in part done in collaboration with the Hinxton Sequence Forum (HSF), which allows active exchange between UniProt, HAVANA, Ensembl and HGNC groups, as well as with RefSeq database. UniProt is a member of the Consensus CDS project and thye are in the process of reviewing their records to support convergence towards a standard set of protein annotation. They also continuously update human entries with functional annotation, including novel structural, post-translational modification, interaction and enzymatic activity data. In order to identify candidates for re-annotation, they use, among others, information extraction tools such as the STRING database. In addition, they regularly add new sequence variants and maintain disease information. Indeed, this annotation program includes the Variation Annotation Program, the goal of which is to annotate all known human genetic diseases and disease-linked protein variants, as well as neutral polymorphisms.

NIH initiative project to provide full-length open reading frame (FL-ORF) clones for human, mouse, and rat genes, cow. MGC cDNA clones were obtained by screening of cDNA libraries, by transcript-specific RT-PCR cloning, and by DNA synthesis of cDNA inserts. All MGC sequences are deposited in GenBank and clones can be purchased from distributors of IMAGE consortium. With conclusion of MGC project in March 2009, GenBank records of MGC sequences will be frozen, without further updates. Since definition of what constitutes full-length coding region for some of genes and transcripts for which they have MGC clones will likely change in future, users planning to order MGC clones will need to monitor for these changes. Users can make use of genome browsers and gene-specific databases, such as the UCSC Genome browser, NCBI's Map Viewer, and Entrez Gene, to view relevant regions of genome (browsers) or gene-related information (Entrez Gene).
