MitoRes, is a comprehensive and reliable resource for massive extraction of sequences and sub-sequences of nuclear genes and encoded products targeting mitochondria in metazoa. It has been developed for supporting high-throughput in-silico analyses aimed to studies of functional genomics related to mitochondrial biogenesis, metabolism and to their pathological dysfunctions. It integrates information from the most accredited world-wide databases to bring together gene, transcript and encoded protein sequences associated to annotations on species name and taxonomic classification, gene name, functional product, organelle localization, protein tissue specificity, Enzyme Classification (EC), Gene Ontology (GO) classification and links to other related public databases. The section Cluster, has been dedicated to the collection of data on protein clustering of the entire catalogue of MitoRes protein sequences based on all versus all global pair-wise alignments for assessing putative intra- and inter-species functional relationships. The current version of MitoRes is based on the UniProt release 4 and contains 64 different metazoan species. The incredible explosion of knowledge production in Biology in the past two decades has created a critical need for bioinformatic instruments able to manage data and facilitate their retrieval and analysis. Hundreds of biological databases have been produced and the integration of biological data from these different resources is very important when we want to focus our efforts towards the study of a particular layer of biological knowledge. MitoRes is a completely rebuilt edition of MitoNuc database, which has been extensively modified to deal successfully with the challenges of the post genomic era. Its goal is to represent a comprehensive and reliable resource supporting high-quality in-silico analyses aimed to the functional characterization of gene, transcript and amino acid sequences, encoded by the nuclear genome and involved in mitochondrial biogenesis, metabolism and pathological dysfunctions in metazoa. The central features of MitoRes are: # an integrated catalogue of protein, transcript and gene sequences and sub-sequences # a Web-based application composed of a wide spectrum of search/retrieval facilities # a sequence export manager allowing massive extraction of bio-sequences (genes, introns, exons, gene flanking regions, transcripts, UTRs, CDS, proteins and signal peptides) in FASTA, EMBL and GenBank formats. It is an interconnected knowledge management system based on a MySQL relational database, which ensures data consistency and integrity, and on a Web Graphical User Interface (GUI), built in Seagull PHP Framework, offering a wide range of search and sequence extraction facilities. The database is compiled extracting and integrating information from public resources and data generated by the MitoRes team. The MitoRes database consists of comprehensive sequence entries whose core data are protein, transcript and gene sequences and taxonomic information describing the biological source of the protein. Additional information include: bio-sequences structure and location, biological function of protein product and dynamic links to both, external public databases used as data resources and public databases reporting complementary information. The core entity of the MitoRes database is represented by the protein so that each MitoRes entry is generated for each protein reported in the UniProt database as a nuclear encoded protein involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and function. Sponsors: MitoRes has been supported by Ministero Universit e Ricerca Scientifica, Italy (PRIN, Programma Biotecnologie legge 95/95-MURST 5, Proiect MURST Cluster C03/2000, CEGBA). Currently it is supported by operating grants from the Ministero dellIstruzione, dellUniversit e della Ricerca (MIUR), Italy (PNR 2001-2003 (FIRB art.8) D.M. 199, Strategic Program: Post-genome, grant 31-063933 and Project n.2, Cluster C03 L. 488/929).

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on March 27, 2013. Web-based portal to connect all the constituencies in the global biobank community. The project seeks to increase the transparency and accessibility of the scientific research process by connecting researchers with an additional source of funding - microinvestments received from the broader online community. In exchange for these public investments, researchers will maintain research logs detailing the play-by-play progress made in their project, as well as publishing all of their data in a public database under a science commons license. These research projects, in turn, will serve to continually update a research-based neuroscience-based human brain & body curriculum. Biobanks are the meeting point of two major information trends in biomedical research: the generation of huge amounts of genomic and other laboratory data, and the electronic capture and integration of patient clinical records. They are comprised of large numbers of human biospecimens supplemented with clinical data. Biobanks when implemented effectively can harness the power of both genomic and clinical data and serve as a critical bridge between basic and applied research, linking laboratory to patient and getting to cures faster. As science and technology leaders work to address the many challenges facing U.S. biobanks logistical, technical, ethical, financial, intellectual property, and IT BioBank Central will serve as an accurate and timely source of knowledge and news about biorepositories and their role in research and drug development. The Web site also provides a working group venue, patient and public education programs, and a forum for international collaboration and harmonization of best practices.

http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/GRO

Ontology that is a conceptual model for the domain of gene regulation. It covers processes that are linked to the regulation of gene expression as well as physical entities that are involved in these processes (such as genes and transcription factors) in terms of ontology classes and semantic relations between classes. GRO is intended to represent common knowledge about gene regulation in a formal way rather than representing extremely fine-grained classes as can be found in ontologies such as the Gene Ontology (GO) (created for data base annotation purposes) and various relevant databases. The main purpose of the ontology is to support NLP applications. It has a particular focus on the relations between processes and the molecules (participants) involved. The basic structure of the GRO is a direct acyclic graph (DAG) with ontology classes as nodes and is-a relations between classes as edges. The taxonomic backbone is further enriched by several semantic relation types (part-of, from-species, participates-in with the two sub-relations agent-of and patient-of).

http://www.jurgott.org/linkage/ListSoftware.html

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 4th,2023. Listing of computer software for the gene mapping community on the following topics: genetic linkage analysis for human pedigree data, QTL analysis for animal/plant breeding data, genetic marker ordering, genetic association analysis, haplotype construction, pedigree drawing, and population genetics. The inclusion of a program should not be interpreted as an endorsement to that program from us. In the last few years, new technology produces new types of genetic data, and the scope of genetic analyses change dramatically. It is no longer obvious whether a program should be included or excluded from this list. Topics such as next-generation-sequencing (NGS), gene expression, genomics annotation, etc. can all be relevant to a genetic study, yet be specialized topics by themselves. Though programs on variance calling from NSG can be in, those can sequence alignment might be out; programs on eQTL can be in, those on differential expression might be out. This page was created by Dr. Wentian Li, when he was at Columbia University (1995-1996). It was later moved to Rockefeller University (1996-2002), and now takes its new home at North Shore LIJ Research Institute (2002-now). The present copy is maintained by Jurg Ott as a single file. More than 240 programs have been listed by December 2004, more than 350 programs by August 2005, close to 400 programs by December 2006, and close to 480 programs by November 2008, and over 600 programs by October 2012. A version of the searchable database was developed by Zhiliang Hu of Iowa State University, and a recent round of updating was assisted by Wei JIANG of Harbin Medical School. Some earlier software can be downloaded from EBI: ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/software/linkage_and_mapping/ (Linkage and Mapping Software Repository), and http://genamics.com/software/index.htm may contain archived copy of some programs.
