To satisfy the need for standardized terminologies several ontologies, we are developing the Ontology of Craniofacial Development and Malformation. When complete, this ontology will describe several realms of anatomy and development relevant to FaceBase, including: * Human craniofacial anatomy, including developmental progressions * Craniofacial malformations * Mouse craniofacial anatomy * Mappings between mouse and human anatomy These ontologies are currently undergoing active development. As a result, these files should be considered very preliminary. They may not work correctly, and contents will almost certainly undergo significant change. Five (sub) ontologies in this zip archive correspond to the categories described above. * OCDM - Ontology of Craniofacial Development and Malformation: currently imports the CHO, CMO, and the CHMMO. * CHO - Craniofacial Human Ontoloogy: normal adult human craniofacial anatomy derived from the FMA. * CMO - Craniofacial Mouse Ontology: normal adult mouse craniofacial anatomy * CHMMO - Craniofacial Human-Mouse Mapping Ontology: mappings of classes in the * CHO to related (homologous) structures in the CMO. CFMO - Craniofacial Malformation Ontology: abnormal human anatomy, includes the CHO All ontologies are in Protege Frames format (requires Protege 3.x). Ontologies refer to other ontologies via the Protege include mechanism. The CHMMO includes the CHO and the CMO. The OCDM (which is the umbrella ontology) includes all of the rest. Future releases will include translations to the OWL language.

http://bioinformatics.charite.de/voronoia/

Voronoia is a program suite to analyse and visualize the atomic packing of protein structures. It is based on the Voronoi Cell method and can be used to estimate the quality of a protein structure, e.g. by comparing the packing density of buried atoms to a reference data set or by highlighting protein regions with large packing defects. Voronoia is also targeted to detect locations of putative internal water or binding sites for ligands. Accordingly, Voronoia is beneficial for a broad range of protein structure approaches. It is applicable as a standalone version coming with a user friendly GUI or, alternatively, as a Pymol Plugin. Finally, Voronoia is also available as an easy to use webtool to process user defined PDB-files or to asses precalculated packing files from DOPP, the regularly updated Dictionary of Packing in Proteins.

http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/MetaQC/

Software for quality control and diagnosis for microarray meta-analysis. Quantitative quality control measures include: (1) internal homogeneity of co-expression structure among studies (internal quality control; IQC); (2) external consistency of co-expression structure correlating with pathway database (external quality control; EQC); (3) accuracy of differentially expressed gene detection (accuracy quality control; AQCg) or pathway identification (AQCp); (4) consistency of differential expression ranking in genes (consistency quality control; CQCg) or pathways (CQCp). For each quality control index, the p-values from statistical hypothesis testing are minus log transformed and PCA biplots were applied to assist visualization and decision. Results generate systematic suggestions to exclude problematic studies in microarray meta-analysis and potentially can be extended to GWAS or other types of genomic meta-analysis. The identified problematic studies can be scrutinized to identify technical and biological causes (e.g. sample size, platform, tissue collection, preprocessing etc) of their bad quality or irreproducibility for final inclusion / exclusion decision.

The DistiLD database aims to increase the usage of existing genome-wide association studies (GWAS) results by making it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes in their chromosomal context. The database performs three important tasks: # published GWAS are collected from several sources and linked to standardized, international disease codes ICD10 codes) # data from the International HapMap Project are analyzed to define linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks onto which SNPs and genes are mapped # the web interface makes it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes within LD blocks. Users can query the database by diseases, SNPs or genes. No matter which of the three query modes was used, an intermediate page will be shown listing all the studies that matched the search with a link to the corresponding publication. The user can select either all studies related to a certain disease or one specific study for which to view the related LD blocks. The DistiLD resource integrates information on: * Associations between Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and diseases from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) * Links between SNPs and genes based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) data from HapMap For convenience, we provide the complete datasets as two (zipped) tab-delimited files. The first file contains GWAS results mapped to LD blocks. The second file contains all SNPs and genes assigned to each LD block.

As part of our effort in PhyloGenomics, we have developed the PartiGene ARTHROPODA Database. In these databases, we have analyzed the EST datasets for sixty different arthropod species. To aid searching we have split the interface between four class-based views: Chelicerata, Hexapoda, Crustacea, Myriapoda. Amongst other analyses, we have included Alfried Vogler's lab's PartiGene analysis of ~30 different arthropod species ESTs. A separate access point for that dataset is also available.

http://newt-omics.mpi-bn.mpg.de/index.php

Newt-omics is a database, which enables researchers to locate, retrieve and store data sets dedicated to the molecular characterization of newts. Newt-omics is a transcript-centered database, based on an Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) data set from the newt, covering ~50,000 Sanger sequenced transcripts and a set of high-density microarray data, generated from regenerating hearts. Newt-omics also contains a large set of peptides identified by mass spectrometry, which was used to validate 13,810 ESTs as true protein coding. Newt-omics is open to implement additional high-throughput data sets without changing the database structure. Via a user-friendly interface Newt-omics allows access to a huge set of molecular data without the need for prior bioinformatical expertise. The newt Notopthalmus viridescens is the master of regeneration. This organism is known for more than 200 years for its exceptional regenerative capabilities. Newts can completely replace lost appendages like limb and tail, lens and retina and parts of the central nervous system. Moreover, after cardiac injury newts can rebuild the functional myocardium with no scar formation. To date only very limited information from public databases is available. Newt-Omics aims to provide a comprehensive platform of expressed genes during tissue regeneration, including extensive annotations, expression data and experimentally verified peptide sequences with yet no homology to other publicly available gene sequences. The goal is to obtain a detailed understanding of the molecular processes underlying tissue regeneration in the newt, that may lead to the development of approaches, efficiently stimulating regenerative pathways in mammalians. * Number of contigs: 26594 * Number of est in contigs: 48537 * Number of transcripts with verified peptide: 5291 * Number of peptides: 15169

NEMBASE is a comprehensive Nematode Transcriptome Database including 63 nematode species, over 600,000 ESTs and over 250,000 proteins. Nematode parasites are of major importance in human health and agriculture, and free-living species deliver essential ecosystem services. The genomics revolution has resulted in the production of many datasets of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from a phylogenetically wide range of nematode species, but these are not easily compared. NEMBASE4 presents a single portal into extensively functionally annotated, EST-derived transcriptomes from over 60 species of nematodes, including plant and animal parasites and free-living taxa. Using the PartiGene suite of tools, we have assembled the publicly available ESTs for each species into a high-quality set of putative transcripts. These transcripts have been translated to produce a protein sequence resource and each is annotated with functional information derived from comparison with well-studied nematode species such as Caenorhabditis elegans and other non-nematode resources. By cross-comparing the sequences within NEMBASE4, we have also generated a protein family assignment for each translation. The data are presented in an openly accessible, interactive database. An example of the utility of NEMBASE4 is that it can examine the uniqueness of the transcriptomes of major clades of parasitic nematodes, identifying lineage-restricted genes that may underpin particular parasitic phenotypes, possible viral pathogens of nematodes, and nematode-unique protein families that may be developed as drug targets.
