COGEME is an ongoing BBSRC-funded study to construct a relational database of genomic information from phytopathogenic fungi. This site also hosts microarray data for Blumeria graminis. Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) obtained from eighteen species of plant pathogenic fungi, two species of phytopathogenic oomycete and three species of saprophytic fungi are included here. Hierarchical clustering software was used to classify together ESTs representing the same gene and produce a single contig, or consensus sequence. The unisequence set for each pathogen therefore represents a set of unique gene sequences, each one consisting of either a single EST or a contig sequence made from a group of ESTs. Unisequences were annotated based on top hits against the NCBI non-redundant protein database using blastx.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone.. Documented on August 20,2019.A database of integrated genome resources for the silkworm, Bombyx mori. This database provides access to not only genomic data including functional annotation of genes, gene products and chromosomal mapping, but also extensive biological information such as microarray expression data, ESTs and corresponding references. SilkDB will be useful for the silkworm research community as well as comparative genomics. Recently, an international collaboration has been launched to assemble a complete silkworm genome sequence, which is based on the 6� and 3� draft genome sequences created by Chinese group and Japanese group in 2004 (Mita et al., 2004; Xia et al., 2004), respectively. The genome assembly quality has been greatly improved. Base on a high density SNP genetic map, over 80% of genome sequence could be mapped on 28 chromosomes of the silkworm. The first version of SilkDB was released in 2004. Since that time, the silkworm has become a focus in insect research community and the study of silkworm has been greatly accelerated. Now, we are happy to announce the release of a new version of SilkDB, which updated all of the data, added new information of genome sequence and genes, and provides new tools to facilitate use of the genome database.

http://www.bioinformatics2.wsu.edu/cgi-bin/Athena/cgi/home.pl

Athena is a web-based application that warehouses disparate datatypes related to the control of gene expression. Athena provides several features to enable exploration of the regulatory mechanisms of Arabidopsis gene control. The first main tool we provide is visualization of promoter domains of selected genes. Database crossreference for these transcription factors is provided as well as a statistical test for enrichment of binding activity within the set of selected promoters. The data mining tools in Athena allow for selection of sets of genes based on two different factors. -Genes can be select by specifying a set of binding factors whose putative sites must be present within all of those genes'' promoter regions. -Alternatively, genes can be selected using Gene Ontology annotations. Both GO (Gene Ontology) Slim terms and Gene Ontology terms are available. One can select a set of genes by either choosing a union of the genes annotated by a selected set of Slim terms or Gene Ontology terms. The selected gene''s putative binding factors are listed, including enrichment data. Furthermore, enriched presence of Gene Ontology terms is given. The analysis suite provides both enhanced data mining tools for selecting genes as well as several data displays., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://andromeda.gsf.de/litminer

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. The LitMiner software is a literature data-mining tool that facilitates the identification of major gene regulation key players related to a user-defined field of interest in PubMed abstracts. The prediction of gene-regulatory relationships is based on co-occurrence analysis of key terms within the abstracts. LitMiner predicts relationships between key terms from the biomedical domain in four categories (genes, chemical compounds, diseases and tissues). The usefulness of the LitMiner system has been demonstrated recently in a study that reconstructed disease-related regulatory networks by promoter modeling that was initiated by a LitMiner generated primary gene list. To overcome the limitations and to verify and improve the data, we developed WikiGene, a Wiki-based curation tool that allows revision of the data by expert users over the Internet. It is based on the annotation of key terms in article abstracts followed by statistical co-citation analysis of annotated key terms in order to predict relationships. Key terms belonging to four different categories are used for the annotation process: -Genes: Names of genes and gene products. Gene name recognition is based on Ensembl . Synonyms and aliases are resolved. -Chemical Compounds: Names of chemical compounds and their respective aliases. -Diseases and Phenotypes: Names of diseases and phenotypes -Tissues and Organs: Names of tissues and organs LitMiner uses a database of disease and phenotype terms for literature annotation. Currently, there are 2225 diseases or phenotypes, 801 tissues and organs, and 10477 compounds in the database.

Database of homologous genes from Ensembl organisms, structured under ACNUC sequence database management system. It allows to select sets of homologous genes among species, and to visualize multiple alignments and phylogenetic trees. It is possible to search for orthologous genes in a wide range of taxons. HOMOLENS is particularly useful for comparative sequence analysis, phylogeny and molecular evolution studies. More generally, HOMOLENS gives an overall view of what is known about a peculiar gene family. Note that HOMOLENS is split into two databases on this server: HOMOLENS contains the protein sequences while HOMOLENSDNA contains the nucleotide sequences. Protein sequences of HOMOLENS have been generated by translating the CDS of HOMOLENSDNA and using associated cross-references to generate the annotations.

http://www.cmbi.ru.nl/GeneSeeker/

The GeneSeeker allows you to search across different databases simultaneously, given a known human genetic location and expression/phenotypic pattern. The GeneSeeker returns any found gene names which are located on the specified location and expressed in the specified tissue. To search for more expression location in one search, just enter them in the textbox for the expression location and separate them with logical operators (and, or, not). You can specify as many tissues as you want, the program starts 20 queries simultaneously, and then waits for a query to finish before starting another query, to keep server loads to a minimum. You can also search only for expression, just leave the cytogenetic location fields blank, and do the query. If you only want to look for one cytogenetic location, only fill in the first location field, and the GeneSeeker will search with only this one. Housekeeping genes , found in Swissprot can be excluded, or genes that are to be excluded can be specified. Human chromosome localizations are translated with an oxford-grid to mouse chromosome localizations, and then submitted to the Mgd. Sponsors: GeneSeeker is a service provided by the Centre for Molecular and Biomolecular Informatics (CMBI).

http://www.ecoli-york.org/

A database that curates new experimental and bioinformatic information about the genes and gene products of the model bacterium Escherichia coli K-12 strain MG1655. It has been created to integrate information from post-genomic experiments into a single resource with the aim of providing functional predictions for the 1500 or so gene products for which we have no knowledge of their physiological function. While EchoBASE provides a basic annotation of the genome, taken from other databases, its novelty is in the curation of post-genomic experiments and their linkage to genes of unknown function. Experiments published on E. coli are curated to one of two levels. Papers dealing with the determination of function of a single gene are briefly described, while larger dataset are actually included in the database and can be searched and manipulated. This includes data for proteomics studies, protein-protein interaction studies, microarray data, functional genomic approaches (looking at multiple deletion strains for novel phenotypes) and a wide range of predictions that come out of in silico bioinformatic approaches. The aim of the database is to provide hypothesis for the functions of uncharacterized gene products that may be used by the E. coli research community to further our knowledge of this model bacterium.
