Text mining tool that detects co-occuring biomedical concepts in abstracts from the MedLine literature database. It allows batch input of multiple human, mouse or rat genes and produces lists of keywords from several biomedical thesauri that are significantly correlated with the set of input genes. These lists link to Medline abstracts in which the co-occurring input genes and correlated keywords are highlighted. Furthermore, CoPub can graphically visualize differentially expressed genes and over-represented keywords in a network, providing detailed insight in the relationships between genes and keywords, and revealing the most influential genes as highly connected hubs.

BrainStars (or B*) is a quantitative expression database of the adult mouse brain. The database has genome-wide expression profile at 51 adult mouse CNS regions. For 51 CNS regions, slices (0.5-mm thick) of mouse brain were cut on a Mouse Brain Matrix, frozen, and the specific regions were punched out bilaterally with a microdissecting needle (gauge 0.5 mm) under a stereomicroscope. For each region, we took samples every 4 hours, starting at ZT0 (Zeitgaber time 0; the time of lights on), for 24 hours (6 time-point samples for each region), and we pooled the samples from the different time points. We independently sampled each region twice (n=2). These samples were purified their RNA, and measured with Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays. Expression values were then summarized with the RMA method. After several analysis with the expression data, the data and analysis results were stored in the BrainStars database. The database has a REST-like Web API interface for accessing from your Web applications. This document shows how to access the database via our Web API.

http://www.gene-regulation.com/pub/databases.html#transpath

Database on eukaryotic transcription factors, their experimentally-proven binding sites, consensus binding sequences (positional weight matrices) and regulated genes. Its broad compilation of binding sites allows the derivation of positional weight matrices. It can either be used as an encyclopedia, for both specific and general information on signal transduction, or can serve as a network analyzer. Cross-references to important sequence and signature databases such as EMBL/GenBank UniProt/Swiss-Prot InterPro or Ensembl EntrezGene RefSeq are provided. The database is equipped with the tools for data visualization and analysis. It has three modules: the first one is the data, which have been manually extracted, mostly from the primary literature; the second is PathwayBuilder, which provides several different types of network visualization and hence facilitates understanding; the third is ArrayAnalyzer, which is particularly suited to gene expression array interpretation, and is able to identify key molecules within signalling networks (potential drug targets). These key molecules could be responsible for the coordinated regulation of downstream events. Manual data extraction focuses on direct reactions between signalling molecules and the experimental evidence for them, including species of genes/proteins used in individual experiments, experimental systems, materials and methods. This combination of materials and methods is used in TRANSPATH to assign a quality value to each experimentally proven reaction, which reflects the probability that this reaction would happen under physiological conditions. Another important feature in TRANSPATH is the inclusion of transcription factor-gene relations, which are transferred from TRANSFAC, a database focused on transcription regulation and transcription factors. Since interactions between molecules are mainly direct, this allows a complete and stepwise pathway reconstruction from ligands to regulated genes.

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.

Non-profit repository for the collection, archiving (via cryopreservation) and distribution of relevant mutant strains essential for basic biomedical research. Users may browse by strain, gene, phenotype, or human disease. Its primary objective is to establish and manage a unified repository for maintaining medically relevant mouse mutants and making them available to the scientific community. Therefore, EMMA archives mutant strains and distributes them to requesting researchers. EMMA also hosts courses in cryopreservation, to promote the use and dissemination of frozen embryos and spermatozoa. Dissemination of knowledge is further fostered by a dedicated resource database. Anybody who wants their mutant mouse strains cryopreserved may deposit strains with EMMA. However depositors must be aware that these strains become freely available to other researchers after being deposited.With more than 8400 mutant mouse strains and asmall but increasing number of rat mutant strains available, EMMA is the primary mouse repository in Europe and the third largest non-profit repository worldwide.

Tutorial that uses scanning electron micrographs (SEMs) as the primary resource to teach mammalian embryology. The 3-D like quality of the micrographs coupled with selected line drawings and minimal text allow relatively easy understanding of the complex morphological changes that occur in utero. Because early human embryos are not readily available and because embryogenesis is very similar across mammalian species, the majority of micrographs that are utilized in this tutorial are of mouse embryos. The remainder are human. This tutorial is divided into units that may be studied in any order. All of the images have a legend that indicates the age of the embryo. If it is a mouse embryo, the approximate equivalent human age is indicated. To minimize labeling, color-coding is widely used. To view the micrographs without color, the cursor may be placed on the image. The SEMs used in this tutorial are from the Kathleen K. Sulik collection. The line drawings have been used with permission from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins and are from the 6th and 7th editions of Langman''s Medical Embryology by T.W. Sadler.

http://www.stembase.ca

A publicly accessible database containing data on Affymetrix DNA microarray experiments, and Serial Analysis of Gene Expression, mostly on human and mouse stem cell samples and their derivatives to facilitate the discovery of gene functions relevant to stem cell control and differentiation. It has grown in both size and scope into a system with analysis tools that examine either the whole database at once, or slices of data, based on tissue type, cell type or gene of interest. There is currently more than 210 stem cell samples in 60 different experiments, with more being added regularly. The samples were originated by researchers of the Stem Cell Network and processed at the Core Facility of Stemcore Laboratories under the management of Ms. Pearl Campbell in the frame of the Stem Cell Genomics Project. Periodically, new expression data is submitted to the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) repository at the National Center for Biotechnological Information, in order to allow researchers to compare the data deposited in StemBase to a large amount of gene expression data sets. StemBase is different from GEO in both focus and scope. StemBase is concerned exclusively with stem cell related data. we are focused in Stem Cell research. We have made a significant effort to ensure the quality and consistency of the data included. This allows us to offer more specialized analysis tools related to Stem Cell data. GEO is intended as a large scale public archive. Deposition in a public repository such as GEO is required by most important scientific journals and it is advantageous for a further diffusion of the data since GEO is more broadly used than StemBase.

Community database that collects and integrates the gene expression information in MGI with a primary emphasis on endogenous gene expression during mouse development. The data in GXD are obtained from the literature, from individual laboratories, and from large-scale data providers. All data are annotated and reviewed by GXD curators. GXD stores and integrates different types of expression data (RNA in situ hybridization; Immunohistochemistry; in situ reporter (knock in); RT-PCR; Northern and Western blots; and RNase and Nuclease s1 protection assays) and makes these data freely available in formats appropriate for comprehensive analysis. There is particular emphasis on endogenous gene expression during mouse development. GXD also maintains an index of the literature examining gene expression in the embryonic mouse. It is comprehensive and up-to-date, containing all pertinent journal articles from 1993 to the present and articles from major developmental journals from 1990 to the present. GXD stores primary data from different types of expression assays and by integrating these data, as data accumulate, GXD provides increasingly complete information about the expression profiles of transcripts and proteins in different mouse strains and mutants. GXD describes expression patterns using an extensive, hierarchically-structured dictionary of anatomical terms. In this way, expression results from assays with differing spatial resolution are recorded in a standardized and integrated manner and expression patterns can be queried at different levels of detail. The records are complemented with digitized images of the original expression data. The Anatomical Dictionary for Mouse Development has been developed by our Edinburgh colleagues, as part of the joint Mouse Gene Expression Information Resource project. GXD places the gene expression data in the larger biological context by establishing and maintaining interconnections with many other resources. Integration with MGD enables a combined analysis of genotype, sequence, expression, and phenotype data. Links to PubMed, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), sequence databases, and databases from other species further enhance the utility of GXD. GXD accepts both published and unpublished data.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 16, 2019.
A database that integrates not only RIKEN''''s original large-scale mammalian databases, such as FANTOM, the ENU mutagenesis program, the RIKEN Cerebellar Development Transcriptome Database and the Bioresource Database, but also imported data from public databases, such as Ensembl, MGI and biomedical ontologies. Our integrated database has been implemented on the infrastructure of publication medium for databases, termed SciNetS/SciNeS, or the Scientists'''' Networking System, where the data and metadata are structured as a semantic web and are downloadable in various standardized formats. The top-level ontology-based implementation of mammal-related data directly integrates the representative knowledge and individual data records in existing databases to ensure advanced cross-database searches and reduced unevenness of the data management operations. Through the development of this database, we propose a novel methodology for the development of standardized comprehensive management of heterogeneous data sets in multiple databases to improve the sustainability, accessibility, utility and publicity of the data of biomedical information.
