THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone.. Documented on August 19,2019.The goal of The Gene Index Project is to use the available Expressed Sequence Transcript (EST) and gene sequences, along with the reference genomes wherever available, to provide an inventory of likely genes and their variants and to annotate these with information regarding the functional roles played by these genes and their products. The promise of genome projects has been a complete catalog of genes in a wide range of organisms. While genome projects have been successful in providing reference genome sequences, the problem of finding genes and their variants in genomic sequence remains an ongoing challenge. TGI has created an inventory that contains genes and their variants together with description. In addition, this resource is attempting to use these catalogs to find links between genes and pathways in different species and to provide lists of features within completed genomes that can aid in the understanding of how gene expression is regulated. DATABASES *Eukaryotic Gene Orthologues (formerly known as TOGA - TIGR Orthologous Gene Alignment): Eukaryotic Gene Orthologues (EGO) at DFGI are generated by pair-wise comparison between the Tentative Consensus (TC) sequences that comprise the Dana Farber Gene Indices from individual organisms. The reciprocal pairs of the best match were clustered into individual groups and multiple sequence alignments were displayed for each group. *GeneChip Oncology Database (GCOD):Cancer gene expression database is a collection of publicly available microarray expression data on Affymetrix GeneChip Arrays related to human cancers. Currently only datasets with available raw data (Affymetrix .CEL files) are processed. All processed datasets were subjected to extensive manual curation, uniform processing and consistent quality control. You can browse the experiments in our collection, perform statistical analysis, and download processed data; or to search gene expression profiles using Entrez gene symbol, Unigene ID, or Affymetrix probeset ID. *Gene Indices: As of July 1, 2008, there are 111 publicly available gene indices. They are separated into 4 categories for better organization and easier access. Animal: 41, Plant: 45, Protist: 15, Fungal: 10 *Genomic Maps: Human, mouse, rat, chicken, drosophila melanogaster, zebrafish, mosquito, caenorhabditis elegans, Arabidopsis thaliana, rice, yeast, fission yeast Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) Gene Indices Software Tools: *TGI Clustering tools (TGICL): a software system for fast clustering of large EST datasets. *GICL: this package contains the scripts and all the necessary pre-compiled binaries for 32bit Linux systems. *clview: an assembly file viewer. *SeqClean:a script for automated trimming and validation of ESTs or other DNA sequences by screening for various contaminants, low quality and low-complexity sequences. *cdbfasta/cdbyank: fast indexing/retrieval of fasta records from flat file databases. *DAS/XML Genomic Viewer The Genomic viewer borrows modules from http://www.biodas.org (lstein (at) cshl.org) & http://webreference.com.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/HTGS/

Database of high-throughput genome sequences from large-scale genome sequencing centers, including unfinished and finished sequences. It was created to accommodate a growing need to make unfinished genomic sequence data rapidly available to the scientific community in a coordinated effort among the International Nucleotide Sequence databases, DDBJ, EMBL, and GenBank. Sequences are prepared for submission by using NCBI's software tools Sequin or tbl2asn. Each center has an FTP directory into which new or updated sequence files are placed. Sequence data in this division are available for BLAST homology searches against either the htgs database or the month database, which includes all new submissions for the prior month. Unfinished HTG sequences containing contigs greater than 2 kb are assigned an accession number and deposited in the HTG division. A typical HTG record might consist of all the first-pass sequence data generated from a single cosmid, BAC, YAC, or P1 clone, which together make up more than 2 kb and contain one or more gaps. A single accession number is assigned to this collection of sequences, and each record includes a clear indication of the status (phase 1 or 2) plus a prominent warning that the sequence data are unfinished and may contain errors. The accession number does not change as sequence records are updated; only the most recent version of a HTG record remains in GenBank.

Database of the most recent sequence updates and annotations for the T. brucei genome. New annotations are constantly being added to keep up with published manuscripts and feedback from the Trypanosomatid research community. You may search by Protein Length, Molecular Mass, Gene Type, Date, Location, Protein Targeting, Transmembrane Helices, Product, GO, EC, Pfam ID, Curation and Comments, and Dbxrefs. BLAST and other tools are available. T. brucei possesses a two-unit genome, a nuclear genome and a mitochondrial (kinetoplast) genome with a total estimated size of 35Mb/haploid genome. The nuclear genome is split into three classes of chromosomes according to their size on pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, 11 pairs of megabase chromosomes (0.9-5.7 Mb), intermediate (300-900 kb) and minichromosomes (50-100 kb). The T. brucei genome contains a ~0.5Mb segmental duplication affecting chromosomes 4 and 8, which is responsible for some 75 gene duplicates unique to this species. A comparative chromosome map of the duplicons can be accessed here (PubmedID 18036214). Protozoan parasites within the species Trypanosoma brucei are the etiological agent of human sleeping sickness and Nagana in animals. Infections are limited to patches of sub-Saharan Africa where insects vectors of the Glossina genus are endemic. The most recent estimates indicate between 50,000 - 70,000 human cases currently exist, with 17 000 new cases each year (WHO Factsheet, 2006). In collaboration with GeneDB, the EuPathDB genomic sequence data and annotations are regularly deposited on TriTrypDB where they can be integrated with other datasets and queried using customized queries.
