Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center (GARD) is a collaborative effort of two agencies of the National Institutes of Health, The Office of Rare Diseases Research (ORDR) and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) to help people find useful information about genetic conditions and rare diseases. GARD provides timely access to experienced information specialists who can furnish current and accurate information about genetic and rare diseases. So far, GARD has responded to 27,635 inquiries on about 7,147 rare and genetic diseases. Requests come not only from patients and their families, but also from physicians, nurses and other health-care professionals. GARD also has proved useful to genetic counselors, occupational and physical therapists, social workers, and teachers who work with people with a genetic or rare disease. Even scientists who are studying a genetic or rare disease and who need information for their research have contacted GARD, as have people who are taking part in a clinical study. Community leaders looking to help people find resources for those with genetic or rare diseases and advocacy groups who want up-to-date disease information for their members have contacted GARD. And members of the media who are writing stories about genetic or rare diseases have found the information GARD has on hand useful, accurate and complete. GARD has information on: :- What is known about a genetic or rare disease. :- What research studies are being conducted. :- What genetic testing and genetic services are available. :- Which advocacy groups to contact for a specific genetic or rare disease. :- What has been written recently about a genetic or rare disease in medical journals. GARD information specialists get their information from: :- NIH resources. :- Medical textbooks. :- Journal articles. :- Web sites. :- Advocacy groups, and their literature and services. :- Medical databases.

Map of identifyied genes controlling traits of economic and welfare significance in the pig. The project objectives were to produce a genetic map with markers spaced at approximately 20 centiMorgan intervals over at least 90% of the pig genome; to produce a physical map with at least one distal and one proximal landmark locus mapped on each porcine chromosome arm and also genetically mapped; to develop a flow karyotype for the pig based on FACS sorted chromosomes; to develop PCR based techniques to enable rapid genotyping for polymorphic markers; to evaluate synteny conservation between pigs, man, mice and cattle; to develop and evaluate the statistical techniques required to analyze data from QTL mapping experiments and to plan and initiate the mapping of QTLs in the pig; to map loci affecting traits of economic and biological significance in the pig; and to develop the molecular tools to allow the future identification and cloning of mapped loci. Animal breeders currently assume that economically important traits such as growth, carcass composition and reproductive performance are controlled by an infinite number of genes each of infinitessimal effect. Although this model is known to be unrealistic, it has successfully underpinned the genetic improvement of livestock, including pigs, over recent decades. A map of the pig genome would allow the development of more realistic models of the genetic control of economic traits and the ultimately the identification of the major trait genes. This would allow the development of more efficient marker assisted selection which may be of particular value for traits such as disease resistance and meat quality.

http://www.aniseed.cnrs.fr/

Database of ascidian embryonic development at the level of the genome (cis-regulatory sequences, gene expression, protein annotation), of the cell (morphology, fate, induction, lineage) or of the whole embryo (anatomy, morphogenesis). Currently, four organism models are described in Aniseed: Ciona intestinalis, Ciona savignyi, Halocynthia roretzi and Phallusia mammillata.
This version supports four sets of Ciona intestinalis transcript models: JGI v1.0, KyotoGrail 2005, KH and ENSEMBL, all functionally annotated, and grouped into Aniseedv3.0 gene models. Users can explore their expression profiles during normal or manipulated development, access validated cis-regulatory regions, get the molecular tools used to assay gene function, or all articles related to the function, or regulation of a given gene. Known transcriptional regulators and targets are listed for each gene, as are the gene regulatory networks acting in individual anatomical territories.
ANISEED is a community tool, and the direct involvement of external contributors is important to optimize the quality of the submitted data. Virtual embryo: The 3D Virtual embryo is available to download in the download section of the website.

http://ccg.vital-it.ch/snp2tfbs

Collection of text files providing specific annotations for human single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), namely whether they are predicted to abolish, create or change the affinity of one or several transcription factor (TF) binding sites. Used to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying regulatory variation in the human genome. SNP2TFBS is also accessible over a web interface, enabling users to view the information provided for an individual SNP, to extract SNPs based on various search criteria, to annotate uploaded sets of SNPs or to display statistics about the frequencies of binding sites affected by selected SNPs.
