http://www.mouseimaging.ca/

A unique resource and comprehensive imaging facility combining the latest state-of-the-art digital medical imaging technologies for the characterization of mouse functional genomics. The goals of the Mouse Imaging Centre are: * To provide a variety of medical imaging technologies adapted to studying genetically modified mice. These technologies include magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, micro computed tomography (micro-CT), ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM), and optical projection tomography (OPT). * To screen large numbers of mice for models of human diseases. * To image an individual mouse over time to observe development, disease progression and responses to experimental treatment. * To develop an exciting team of investigators with expertise in imaging techniques, computer science, engineering, imaging processing, developmental biology and mouse pathology. * To work by collaboration with researchers throughout the world. When we look for human diseases in the human population, we make extensive use of medical imaging. Therefore, it makes sense to have available the same imaging capabilities as we investigate mice for models of human disease. The Mouse Imaging Centre (MICe) has developed high field magnetic resonance imaging microscopy, ultrasound biomicroscopy, micro computed tomography, and optical techniques. With these imaging tools, MICe is screening randomly mutagenized mice to look for phenotypes that represent human diseases and is taking established human disease models in mice and using imaging to follow the progression of disease and response to treatment over time. It is clear that imaging has a major contribution to make to phenotyping genetic variants and to characterizing mouse models. MICe is staffed by an exciting new team of about 30 investigators with expertise in imaging techniques, computer science, engineering, imaging processing, developmental biology and mouse pathology. The Mouse Imaging Centre (MICe) is not a fee-for-service facility but works through collaborations. Services include: * Projects involving MicroCT are available as a fee for service. * We will eventually move to the same model above with MRI. * Ultrasound Biomicroscopy is used for cardiac, embryo and cancer studies and is available as fee for service at $100 per study or in some cases on a collaborative basis. * Optical Projection Tomography has only limited availability on a collaborative basis. Mouse Atlas As our images are inherently three-dimensional, we will be able to make quantitative measures of size and volume. With this in mind, we are developing a mouse atlas showing the normal deviation of organ sizes. This atlas is an important resource for biologists as it has the potential to eliminate the need to sacrifice as many controls when making comparisons with mutants. Mouse Atlas Examples: * Variational Mouse Brain Atlas * Cerebral Vascular Atlas of the CBA Mouse * Neuroanatomy Atlas of the C57Bl/6j Mouse * Vascular Atlas of the Developing Mouse Embryo * Micro-CT E15.5 Mouse Embryo Atlas

High throughput screening services to identify small molecules that can be optimized as chemical probes to study the functions of genes, cells, and biochemical pathways, along with medicinal chemistry and informatics. This will lead to new ways to explore the functions of genes and signaling pathways in health and disease. The NIH Molecular Libraries Initiative NIH is designed to discover small molecules that interact with biologically important proteins and pathways and to provide open access to the bioassay and chemical data generated by its research centers. This will lead to new ways to explore the functions of genes and signaling pathways in health and disease. As these HTS Technologies were not previously available to the public sector, many investigators may not be familiar with the components and requirements of high throughput screening. A key challenge is to identify small molecules effective at modulating a given biological process or disease state. The Molecular Libraries Roadmap, through one of its components, the Molecular Libraries Probe Production Centers Network (MLPCN), offers biomedical researchers access to the large-scale screening capacity, along with medicinal chemistry and informatics necessary to identify chemical probes to study the functions of genes, cells, and biochemical pathways. This will lead to new ways to explore the functions of genes and signaling pathways in health and disease. There are two kinds of data that are available to the scientific community through a dedicated database: Chemical Compounds and Bioassay Results (NCBI). Various types of data, including informative records on substances, compound structures, and biologically active properties of small molecules are housed respectively within PubChem''''s three primary databases: PCSubstance, PCCompound, and PCBioAssay. To date, PubChem contains over 11 million substance records, details about approximately 5.5 million unique compound structures with links to bioassay descriptions, relevant literature, references, and assay data points and over 250 bioassays, a good percentage of which were contributed by the pilot phase of the MLP. The deposition will continue during the current MLPCN phase. NIH anticipates that these projects will also facilitate the development of new drugs, by providing early stage chemical compounds that will enable researchers in the public and private sectors to validate new drug targets, which could then move into the drug-development pipeline. This is particularly true for rare diseases, which may not be attractive for development by the private sector. Funding opportunities are available through the site.

http://www.geisha.arizona.edu/geisha/

Online repository for chicken in situ hybridization information. This site presents whole mount in situ hybridization images and corresponding probe and genomic information for genes expressed in chicken embryos in Hamburger Hamilton stages 1-25 (0.5-5 days). The GEISHA project began in 1998 to investigate using high throughput whole mount in situ hybridization to identify novel, differentially expressed genes in chicken embryos. An initial expression screen of approximately 900 genes demonstrated feasibility of the approach, and also highlighted the need for a centralized repository of in situ hybridization expression data. Objectives: The goals of the GEISHA project are to obtain whole mount in situ hybridization expression information for all differentially expressed genes in the chicken embryo between HH stages 1-25, to integrate expression data with the chicken genome browsers, and to offer this information through a user-friendly graphical user interface. In situ hybridization images are obtained from three sources: 1. In house high throughput in situ hybridization screening: cDNAs obtained from several embryonic cDNA libraries or from EST repositories are screened for expression using high throughput in situ hybridization approaches. 2. Literature curation: Agreements with journals permit posting of published in situ hybridization images and related information on the GEISHA site. 3. Unpublished in situ hybridization information from other laboratories: laboratories generally publish only a small fraction of their in situ hybridization data. High quality images for which probe identity can be verified are welcome additions to GEISHA.

http://gene3d.biochem.ucl.ac.uk/Gene3D/

A large database of CATH protein domain assignments for ENSEMBL genomes and Uniprot sequences. Gene3D is a resource of form studying proteins and the component domains. Gene3D takes CATH domains from Protein Databank (PDB) structures and assigns them to the millions of protein sequences with no PDB structures using Hidden Markov models. Assigning a CATH superfamily to a region of a protein sequence gives information on the gross 3D structure of that region of the protein. CATH superfamilies have a limited set of functions and so the domain assignment provides some functional insights. Furthermore most proteins have several different domains in a specific order, so looking for proteins with a similar domain organization provides further functional insights. Strict confidence cut-offs are used to ensure the reliability of the domain assignments. Gene3D imports functional information from sources such as UNIPROT, and KEGG. They also import experimental datasets on request to help researchers integrate there data with the corpus of the literature. The website allows users to view descriptions for both single proteins and genes and large protein sets, such as superfamilies or genomes. Subsets can then be selected for detailed investigation or associated functions and interactions can be used to expand explorations to new proteins. The Gene3D web services provide programmatic access to the CATH-Gene3D annotation resources and in-house software tools. These services include Gene3DScan for identifying structural domains within protein sequences, access to pre-calculated annotations for the major sequence databases, and linked functional annotation from UniProt, GO and KEGG., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

A data warehouse that integrates information on patients from multiple sources and consists of patient information from all the visits to Cincinnati Children''''s between 2003 and 2007. This information includes demographics (age, gender, race), diagnoses (ICD-9), procedures, medications and lab results. They have included extracts from Epic, DocSite, and the new Cerner laboratory system and will eventually load public data sources, data from the different divisions or research cores (such as images or genetic data), as well as the research databases from individual groups or investigators. This information is aggregated, cleaned and de-identified. Once this process is complete, it is presented to the user, who will then be able to query the data. The warehouse is best suited for tasks like cohort identification, hypothesis generation and retrospective data analysis. Automated software tools will facilitate some of these functions, while others will require more of a manual process. The initial software tools will be focused around cohort identification. They have developed a set of web-based tools that allow the user to query the warehouse after logging in. The only people able to see your data are those to whom you grant authorization. If the information can be provided to the general research community, they will add it to the warehouse. If it cannot, they will mark it so that only you (or others in your group with proper approval) can access it.
