IVDB hosts complete genome sequences of influenza A virus generated by BGI and curates all other published influenza virus sequences after expert annotations. For the convenience of efficient data utilization, our Q-Filter system classifies and ranks all nucleotide sequences into 7 categories according to sequence content and integrity. IVDB provides a series of tools and viewers for analyzing the viral genomes, genes, genetic polymorphisms and phylogenetic relationships comparatively. A searching system is developed for users to retrieve a combination of different data types by setting various search options. To facilitate analysis of the global viral transmission and evolution, the IV Sequence Distribution Tool (IVDT) is developed to display worldwide geographic distribution of the viral genotypes and to couple genomic data with epidemiological data. The BLAST, multiple sequence alignment tools and phylogenetic analysis tools were integrated for online data analysis. Furthermore, IVDB offers instant access to the pre-computed alignments and polymorphism analysis of influenza virus genes and proteins and presents the results by SNP distribution plots and minor allele distributions. IVDB aims to be a powerful information resource and an analysis workbench for scientists working on IV genetics, evolution, diagnostics, vaccine development, and drug design.

A database of phylogenetic trees of animal genes. It aims at developing a curated resource that gives reliable information about ortholog and paralog assignments, and evolutionary history of various gene families. TreeFam defines a gene family as a group of genes that evolved after the speciation of single-metazoan animals. It also tries to include outgroup genes like yeast (S. cerevisiae and S. pombe) and plant (A. thaliana) to reveal these distant members.TreeFam is also an ortholog database. Unlike other pairwise alignment based ones, TreeFam infers orthologs by means of gene trees. It fits a gene tree into the universal species tree and finds historical duplications, speciations and losses events. TreeFam uses this information to evaluate tree building, guide manual curation, and infer complex ortholog and paralog relations.The basic elements of TreeFam are gene families that can be divided into two parts: TreeFam-A and TreeFam-B families. TreeFam-B families are automatically created. They might contain errors given complex phylogenies. TreeFam-A families are manually curated from TreeFam-B ones. Family names and node names are assigned at the same time. The ultimate goal of TreeFam is to present a curated resource for all the families. phylogenetic tree, animal, vertebrate, invertebrate, gene, ortholog, paralog, evolutionary history, gene families, single-metazoan animals, outgroup genes like yeast (S. cerevisiae and S. pombe), plant (A. thaliana), historical duplications, speciations, losses, Human, Genome, comparative genomics

Database for ESTs (Expressed Sequence Tags), consensus sequences, bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones, BES (BAC End Sequences). They have generated 69,545 ESTs from 6 full-length cDNA libraries (Porcine Abdominal Fat, Porcine Fat Cell, Porcine Loin Muscle, Liver and Pituitary gland). They have also identified a total of 182 BAC contigs from chromosome 6. It is very valuable resources to study porcine quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and genome study. Users can explore genomic alignment of various data types, including expressed sequence tags (ESTs), consensus sequences, singletons, QTL, Marker, UniGene and BAC clones by several options. To estimate the genomic location of sequence dataset, their data aligned BES (BAC End Sequences) instead of genomic sequence because Pig Genome has low-coverage sequencing data. Sus scrofa Genome Database mainly provide comparative map of four species (pig, cattle, dog and mouse) in chromosome 6.

A national sample survey dataset covering a wide variety of issues on American family life beginning in 1987-88 and at two subsequent timepoints1992-93 and 2001-03. Topics covered included detailed household composition, family background, adult family transitions, couple interactions, parent-child interactions, education and work, health, economic and psychological well-being, and family attitudes. The first wave interviewed 13,017 respondents, including a main cross-section sample of 9,643 persons aged 19 and over plus an oversample of minorities and households containing single-parent families, step-families, recently married couples, and cohabiting couples. In each household, a randomly selected adult was interviewed. In addition, a shorter, self-administered questionnaire was filled out by the spouse or cohabiting partner of the primary respondent. Interviews averaged about 100 minutes, although interview length varied considerably with the complexity of the respondent''s family history. In 1992-94, an in-person interview was conducted of all surviving members of the original sample, the current spouse or cohabiting partner, and with the baseline spouse or partner in cases where the relationship had ended. Telephone interviews were conducted with focal children who were aged 5-12 and 13-18 at baseline. Short proxy interviews were conducted with a surviving spouse or other relative in cases where the original respondent died or was too ill to interview. A telephone interview was conducted with one randomly selected parent of the main respondent. In 2001-03, telephone interviews were conducted with: Surviving members of the original respondents who had a focal child age 5 or over at baseline; the baseline spouse/partner of these original respondents, whether or not the couple was still together; the focal children who were in the household and aged 5-18 at baselinemost of whom were interviewed at wave 2; and all other original respondents age 45 or older in 2000, and their baseline spouse/partner. Oversamples: Blacks, 9.2%; Mexican-Americans, 2.4%; Puerto Ricans, 0.7% * Dates of Study: 1987-2003 * Study Features: Longitudinal, Minority Oversampling * Sample Size (original respondents): ** Wave I (1987-88): 13,017 ** Wave II (1992-93): 10,007 ** Wave III (2001-03): 8,990 Links: * Wave I (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06041 * Wave II (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06906 * Wave III (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/00171

The Cortical box method is an analytical method that standardizes the serial coronal sections of rodent cortex for quantitative analysis (details are written in the manual document). There are several tools necessary for this analysis. Currently, a program CxStand which is a core program of Cortical Box method is available for download. It standardizes a set of serial sections of rat cortex into standard rectangulars. Cortical box method was developed by Dr. Junya Hirokawa in the Yamamori Lab to map c-fos immunoreactivity in the rat cortex. This method was now applied to analyze the in situ data. From the original image, the cortical region is taken out and transformed, then normalized. You do this to a set of coronal sections of a rat cortex. Then, the cortex becomes a box. You can now slice the cortical box at desired lamina positions for layer maps. For more information, please refer to, http://www.nibb.ac.jp/brish/Gallery/corticalboxE.html. Requirements Cortical Box Method software is written in Labview and requires Labview version 7.0 (or later) and Vision development version 7.0 (or later). Labview and Vision are products of National Instruments (http://www.ni.com/ ). I confirmed (*) the Cortical box software works in the latest versions of Labview (ver.8.6) and Vision development (ver. 8.6), which can be downloaded without charge in the National Instruments web site (http://www.ni.com/ ) and can be used as evaluation softwares for 30 days. I tested the programs on PCs running the Windows family of operating systems. *A VI called image to image does not exist in Labview 8.6, please replace it into image to image 2. Programs CxStand ver 1.01 - (English, 680KB, Latest Version (2008/09/25 Update)) Standardization of a part of cortex into a rectangular. CBanalysis - construct 3D cortical box and create specific layer maps. DensityMap - Creating denisty map of staining signals. Copyright (c) 2008 Junya Hirokawa. All rights reserved.
