Curator Dashboard

Web resource that provides data and tools for exploring genomic organization of highly conserved noncoding elements (HCNEs) for multiple genomes. It includes a genome browser that shows HCNE locations and features novel HCNE density plots as a powerful tool to discover developmental regulatory genes and distinguish their regulatory elements and domains. They identify HCNEs as non-exonic regions of high similarity between genome sequences from distantly related organisms, such as human and fish, and provide tools for studying the distribution of HCNEs along chromosomes. Major peaks of HCNE density along chromosomes most often coincide with developmental regulatory genes. Their aim with this site is to aid discovery of developmental regulatory genes, their regulatory domains and their fundamental regulatory elements.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 12,2023. Database of expression patterns of C. elegans promoter::GFP constructs. A text description of the observed pattern is provided, indicating the stage(s) and tissue(s) in which GFP is expressed. Also available for some strains are the corresponding 2D and 3D images. Investigators may browse the entire list, search by gene name, tissue, stage, and pattern. Search results may be downloaded in .csv and .txt formats. All of the strains in the expression pattern database are displayed in the browse page. The records are organized by gene; information such as locus name, genomic location (WormBase), the presence of images and videos, and the actual expression pattern are shown in a tabular format.

Website for analyzing microarray data. Software toolbox for storing, analyzing and integrating microarray data and related genotype and phenotype data. The site is particularly suited for combining QTL and microarray data to search for candidate genes contributing to complex traits. In addition, the site allows, if desired by the investigators, sharing of the data. Investigators can conduct in-silico microarray experiments using their own and/or shared data. There are five major sections of the site: Genome/Transcriptome Data Browser, Microarray Analysis Tools, Gene List Analysis Tools, QTL Tools, and Downloads. The genome/transcriptome data browser combines a genome browser with all the microarray, RNA-Seq, and Genomic Sequencing data. This provides an effective platform to view all of this data side by side. Source code is available on GitHub.

Database of information on amphibian declines, natural history, conservation, and taxonomic information for every recognized species of amphibian in the world. Species accounts are being added regularly by specialists and volunteers and they contain species descriptions, life history information, conservation status, literature references, photos and range maps for many species. Some species have complete accounts; others as yet have only photographs or distributions. But all species can be queried for taxonomic, distributional and exact specimen data. AmphibiaWeb offers a powerful mapping tool by combining museum specimen data (via HerpNET) with expert opinion range maps (from Global Amphibian Assessment/IUCN) and overlaying these onto larger maps, allowing visualization in political, satellite, hybrid, or terrain map format. AmphibiaWeb currently (Aug 13, 2013) contains 7,160 species. They have 2,966 species accounts for 2,363 species, 6,517 literature references, 558 sound files, 109 video files, and 28,218 photos of 3,887 different amphibian species. These data come from numerous individuals--see acknowledgements. They have the ambitious goal of establishing a home page for every species of amphibian in the world. In order to accomplish this goal they encourage volunteers and specialists to help prepare species accounts. If you have special interest in a particular species, please contact them.

An ontology of taxonomic terms (names of taxonomic groups) used in the systematics of fish, including non-teleost groups such as Chondrichthys (sharks and rays), Sarcopterygii (lungfish and coelacanths), lampreys, and hagfish. It contains (as of August 2010) over 38,500 names, and over 44,000 taxonomic synonyms. A majority of the taxonomic names and synonyms were made available from the Catalog of Fishes. In July 2010 they added nearly 15,000 common names provided by Fishbase. Additional names and synonyms are added as a result of their curation activities. The ontology is being used to facilitate annotation of phenotypes, particularly for taxa that are not covered by NCBI because no submissions of molecular data have been made. Taxonomy ontologies can also be valuable in annotating legacy data, where authors make phenotype or ecological assertions (e.g., host-parasite associations) that refer to groups that are reorganized or no longer recognized. The taxonomy ontology serves as the source of taxa for their project's use for identifying evolutionary changes that match the phenotype of a zebrafish mutant.

A multi-species anatomy ontology for teleost fishes. It was originally seeded from ZFA, but covers terms relevant to other taxa. The TAO uses terms from the Common Anatomy Reference Ontology (CARO) as a template for its upper level nodes, and the Vertebrate Skeletal Anatomy Ontology (VSAO) for general skeletal anatomy classes. Growth of the TAO is enabled by contributions from data curators and the ichthyological community. The TAO can be browsed by using the NCBO BioPortal and data annotated using TAO terms can be queried using the Phenoscape Knowedgebase.

A structured controlled vocabulary of the anatomy of Drosophila melanogaster. These ontologies are query-able reference sources for information on Drosophila anatomy and developmental stages. They also provide controlled vocabularies for use in annotation and classification of data related to Drosophila anatomy, such as gene expression, phenotype and images. They were originally developed by FlyBase, who continue to maintain them and have used them for over 200,000 annotations of phenotypes and expression. Extensive use of synonyms means that, given a suitably sophisticated autocomplete, users can find relevant content by searching with almost any anatomical term they find in the literature. These ontologies are developed in the web ontology language OWL2. Their extensive formalization in OWL can be used to drive sophisticated query systems.
