Data set of pictures representing genetic linkage maps of the rat resulting from the integration of two F2 intercrosses (SHRSP x BN and FHH x ACI). Markers in common between the two crosses are connected by a line to define integration points. There are a total of 4,786 markers on these maps; 4375 WIBR/MIT CGR markers; 223 markers from the previously released Mit/Mgh rat maps and 188 markers from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Arb rat maps. Pictures are drawn to a scale of 5cm (Kosombi) per inch. The changes in color of the backbone of the chromosome for each cross represents the space between any two framework loci. Markers in blue type are framework loci. Markers in green type are unique placement loci. Markers in black type are bouncy placement loci.

The NCI Mouse Repository cryoarchives and distributes strains of genetically engineered mice that are of immediate interest to the cancer research community. These are either gene-targeted or transgenic mice that display a cancer-related phenotype, or tool strains (e.g., cre transgenics) that can be used to develop new cancer models. You do not have to be a member of the NCI Mouse Repository or a recipient of NCI funding to have your mouse model distributed through the NCI Mouse Repository. NCI Mouse Repository strains are maintained as live colonies or cryoarchived as frozen embryos, depending on demand. Up to three breeder pairs may be ordered from live colonies. Cryoarchived strains are supplied as frozen embryos or recovery of live mice by the NCI Mouse Repository may be requested.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 28,2025. These databases were constructed by extracting the organism specific ESTs from dbEST, removing polyA sequences from the ends and trimming 5' and 3' regions with greater than 25% N's in a 20 base pair window. These quality sequences were then aligned using the cap2 program and the consensus sequences thus generated put into a database that is available on the web. A number of parasitic organisms were chosen that have between 3000 and 15000 ESTs. The attempt here is to provide useful information and analyses to the scientific community without curating the results in any way. A total of 55192 ESTs, deposited into dbEST/GenBank, were included in the analyses. The resulting sequences have been clustered into nonredundant gene assemblies and deposited into a relational database that supports a variety of sequence and text searches. This database has been used to compare the gene assemblies using BLAST similarity comparisons to the public protein databases to identify putative genes. Of these new entries, approximately 15%-20% represent putative homologs with a conservative cutoff of p < 10(-9), thus identifying many conserved genes that are likely to share common functions with other well-studied organisms. Gene assemblies were also used to identify strain polymorphisms, examine stage-specific expression, and identify gene families. An interesting class of genes that are confined to members of this phylum and not shared by plants, animals, or fungi, was identified. These genes likely mediate the novel biological features of members of the Apicomplexa and hence offer great potential for biological investigation and as possible therapeutic targets.

A database of circular permutation (CP) in proteins that provides resources for studying circular permutation (CP) and circular permutation relationships among protein structures. This site also offers viable CP site predictions in order to facilitate the application of CP in academic researches and biotechnological developments.<BR / The organizational principle of CPDB is a hierarchical categorization in which pairs of circular permutants are grouped into CP clusters, which are further grouped into folds and in turn classes. Additions to CPDB include a useful set of tools and resources for the identification, characterization, comparison and visualization of CP. Besides, several viable CP site prediction methods are implemented and assessed in CPDB. This database can be useful in protein folding and evolution studies, the discovery of novel protein structural and functional relationships, and facilitating the production of new CPs with unique biotechnical or industrial interests.

Database to store and display somatic mutation information and related details and contains information relating to human cancers. The mutation data and associated information is extracted from the primary literature. In order to provide a consistent view of the data a histology and tissue ontology has been created and all mutations are mapped to a single version of each gene. The data can be queried by tissue, histology or gene and displayed as a graph, as a table or exported in various formats.<BR/> Some key features of COSMIC are:<BR/> * Contains information on publications, samples and mutations. Includes samples which have been found to be negative for mutations during screening therefore enabling frequency data to be calculated for mutations in different genes in different cancer types.<BR/> * Samples entered include benign neoplasms and other benign proliferations, in situ and invasive tumours, recurrences, metastases and cancer cell lines.

The Dog Genome Project at the National Human Genome Research Institute is working to develop resources necessary to map and clone canine genes in an effort to utilize dogs as a model system for genetics and cancer research. The US National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) agreed to fund a project to sequence the entire genome of a boxer dog named Tasha, because it recognized the value of the dog as an unrivaled model for the study of human disease. The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) led the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) contribution to the International Human Genome Project, which had as its primary goal the sequencing of the human genome. This project was successfully completed in April 2003. Now, the NHGRI's mission has expanded to encompass a broad range of studies aimed at understanding the structure and function of the human genome and its role in health and disease. To that end NHGRI supports the development of resources and technology that will accelerate genome research and its application to human health. A critical part of the NHGRI mission continues to be the study of the ethical, legal and social implications (ELSI) of genome research. NHGRI also supports the training of investigators and the dissemination of genome information to the public and to health professionals.

Reference database and analysis platform for corynebacterial transcription factors and gene regulatory networks. It generates links to genome annotations, to identified transcription factors and to the corresponding cis-regulatory elements. CoryneRegNet is based on a multi-layered, hierarchical and modular concept of transcriptional regulation and was implemented by using the relational database management system MySQL and an ontology-based data structure.

A dataset of 100 annotated papers for use in text mining applications, that includes the importance of each reference compared to other references. Useful for natural language processing, machine learning or bibliometrics. To collect the annotations, authors of a paper were asked to determine whether a given reference had a strong influence on their research. In a blog post on March 20th 2012, authors were invited to help create a gold-standard dataset of labeled references. Data are available for download.

A program of regional geochemical and geophysical surveys designed to attract the mineral exploration industry to an under-explored region of British Columbia between Williams Lake and Mackenize. The QUEST Project is focused on the Quesnel Terrane, which has good potential for copper and gold porphyry deposits, but in this region is covered by a thick layer of sand and gravel left behind by glaciers. Geoscience BC's QUEST Project included two airborne geophysical surveys: an airborne electromagnetic (EM) survey and an airborne gravity survey, which give insight into the conductivity and density of the rocks. The results of the two airborne surveys are an important tool for industry looking to understand the geology in the QUEST Project area. The QUEST Project also included the reanalysis of almost 5000 archived regional geochemical samples from parts of NTS sheets 93A, B, G, H, K and N, and the collection of 2200 new geochemical samples north and west of Prince George. This new geochemical data is helping industry to identify new exploration targets. Subsequent follow-up work has included analysis and inversion of datasets and updating the regional bedrock geology map.
