A database of allergenic proteins. It contains various computational tools that can assist structural biology studies related to allergens. SDAP is an important tool in the investigation of the cross-reactivity between known allergens, in testing the FAO/WHO allergenicity rules for new proteins, and in predicting the IgE-binding potential of genetically modified food proteins. Using this Internet service through a browser, it is possible to retrieve information related to an allergen from the most common protein sequence and structure databases (SwissProt, PIR, NCBI, PDB), to find sequence and structural neighbors for an allergen, and to search for the presence of an epitope other the whole collection of allergens.

TGD Wiki is a user-updatable database of information about the Tetrahymena thermophila genome sequence determined at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR). TGD Wiki provides information on the genome, genes, and proteins of Tetrahymena collected from the scientific literature, research community and many other resources. In order to keep the information in our database as current as possible, we will soon be inviting the members of the Tetrahymena community to add and update these annotations to reflect published research. TGD Wiki currently offers the following features: * Free, unrestricted read access to all available data * Sequence and annotation data for 24,725 genes (TIGR v.2008) * GBrowse genome browser with links to and from each gene page (TIGR v.2006) * BLAST searching of the TIGR gene models and genome sequence (TIGR v.2006) Tetrahymena Genome Database (TGD) Wiki began in 2004 at Stanford University using the schema and programs of its parent project, Saccharomyces Genome Database. TGD Wiki is now a collaboration between Bradley University, Stanford University, and Cornell University. As we begin TGD Wiki at its new home at Bradley University, the TGD Wiki database contains the following data from TGD: * Gene Names and Aliases * Gene Descriptions * Gene Ontology (GO) Annotations * Homologs (similar genes in selected organisms) * Protein Domains * Associated Literature * Paragraphs (longer, free-text descriptions of gene function, structure, and significance) * Coding and Protein Sequences We have updated the following fields to match the newest gene model sequences (TIGR v.2008): Coding and Protein Sequences, Protein Domains and Gene Descriptions. We will also be recalculating the GO Annotations (IEA evidence code) and Homologs as part of our effort to keep the annotations in TGD Wiki as current as possible. We will be relying on members of the Tetrahymena community to maintain high-quality, updated annotations in the remainder of the fields using our annotation interface. Also setting up new database superdb - for unpublished data Look at Ciliate.org for news on this and other new databases

Human Genome Organisation (HUGO) is the international organization of scientists involved in human genetics. HUGO was conceived in 1988, at the first meeting on genome mapping and sequencing at Cold Spring Harbor. From a 42 scientists of 17 countries membership association, HUGO has increased its membership base to over 1,200 members, both established and aspiring of 69 countries after two decades. HUGO has, over the years, played an essential role behind the scenes of the human genome project. With its mission to promote international collaborative effort to study the human genome and the myriad issues raised by knowledge of the genome, HUGO has had noteworthy successes in some of the less glamorous, but nonetheless vital, aspects of the human genome project. As a truly international organization, HUGO is entering its 20th year of its history by making an inflection in its direction seeking the biological meaning of its information content. To this end, HUGO is focusing on the medical implications of genomic knowledge. Moving forward, HUGO is also working to enhance the genomic capabilities in the emerging countries of the world. The excitement and interest in genomic sciences in Asia, Middle East, South America and Africa are palpable and the hope is that these technologies will help in national development and health.

The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation is an independent, nonprofit institute headquartered in Ardmore, Okla. Founded in 1945, the Noble Foundation conducts direct operations, including assisting farmers and ranchers, and conducting plant science research and agricultural programs, to enhance agricultural productivity regionally, nationally and internationally. Employing more than 360 persons, the Noble Foundation conducts its operations through the activities of three operating divisions: * Agricultural Division: Serving a 47-county area within a 100-mile radius of the Noble Foundation''s headquarters in Ardmore, Okla., the Agricultural Division assists more than 1,700 regional farmers and ranchers in achieving their individual financial, production, stewardship and quality-of life goals. * Plant Biology Division: The Plant Biology Division conducts basic biochemical, genetic and genomic plant research for the purpose of improving crop productivity and value, and enhancing animal and human health. * Forage Improvement Division: The Forage Improvement Division translates basic plant science research into tangible plant varieties. Within the institution, the Forage Improvement Division serves as a link between the discoveries in the laboratory and the field, where such discoveries are intended to enhance agricultural outcomes in Oklahoma and around the world. The coordinated efforts of these operating divisions enable the Noble Foundation agricultural specialists and scientists to move science and innovation from the laboratory to the field, giving life to discovery and improving agriculture in Oklahoma, in the United States and around the world.

This site is intended to increase the nation''s ability to prepare for and respond to public health emergencies. Emergency preparedness requires attention not just to specific types of hazards but also to steps that increase preparedness for any type of hazard. The resources in this website are intended to help professionals take an all-hazards approach to preparedness. People prepared for emerging health threats-people in all communities will be protected from infectious, occupational, environmental, and terrorist threats, is one of CDC''s four health protection goals. CDC plays a key role in preparing the nation for all types of public health threats, including natural, biological, chemical, radiological, and nuclear incidents. When a disaster occurs, CDC is prepared to respond and support national, state, and local partners to save lives and reduce suffering. CDC also helps these partners recover and restore public health functions after the initial response. National emergency preparedness requires a coordinated effort involving every level of government as well as the private sector, non-governmental organizations, and individual citizens. CDC''s work in preparedness supports the Department of Homeland Security, which has overall authority for emergency response activities as laid out in the National Response Framework. Protecting the public from health threats involves public health preparedness as well as medical preparedness. Both are essential for national health security and, hence, to the overall preparedness of the nation. Sponsors: This resource is supported by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

Supports cross-cutting, trans-NIH programs that require participation by at least two NIH Institutes or Centers (ICs) or would otherwise benefit from strategic planning and coordination. The requirements for the Common Fund encourage collaboration across the ICs while providing the NIH with flexibility to determine priorities for Common Fund support. To date, the Common Fund has been used to support a series of short term, exceptionally high impact, trans-NIH programs known collectively as the NIH Roadmap for Medical Research. The Common Fund is coordinated by the Office of Strategic Coordination, one of the six offices of the Division of Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives (DPCPSI) within the Office of the Director. The intent of NIH Common Fund programs is to provide a strategic and nimble approach to address key roadblocks in biomedical research that impede basic scientific discovery and its translation into improved human health. In addition, these programs capitalize on emerging opportunities to catalyze the rate of progress across multiple biomedical fields. Common Fund programs are expected to transform the way a broad spectrum of health research is conducted. Initiatives that comprise Common Fund programs are intended to be catalytic in nature by providing limited term investments in strategic areas to stimulate further research through IC-funded mechanisms.
