THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, Documented on August 12, 2014. Data, grouped by chromosome, available as flat files for download, of identified DNA polymorphisms (SNPs) in 15 commonly used strains of inbred laboratory mice. Perlegen's SNP, genotype (empirical and imputed), haplotype, trace, and PCR primer data has been compiled with NCBI Mouse Build information to produce data files for public use. Using high-density oligonuclueotide array technology, the study identified over 8 million SNPs and other genetic differences between these strains and the previously sequenced C57BL/6J reference strains (Phase 1). By leveraging data provided by Mark Daly's research team at the Broad Institute, genotypes were also predicted for 40 other common strains (Phase 2). Under an extension to the contract, Eleazar Eskin's group at UCLA has used this data to evaluate SNP associations with phenotypes from the Mouse Phenome Project (the Mouse Phenome Database), and to construct haplotype maps for a total of 94 inbred strains (the Mouse HapMap Project). SNP and genotype positions have been mapped from their original reference coordinates to NCBI Mouse Build 37 coordinates. Note that C57BL6/J strain was not selected for re-sequencing as this data would have been almost entirely redundant with the NCBI reference sequence. Since we did not actually determine genotypes for C57BL6/J, we did not submit genotypes for this strain to dbSNP. However, implicit genotypes for C57BL6/J can be obtained from the reference sequence at each SNP position (the reference allele is the first allele in the ALLELES column). The data is available for download in two different compressed file formats. The files are saved as both PC .zip files and Unix compressed .gz files. At this website, you can: * Learn more about the goals of the Perlegen mouse resequencing project. * Learn more about the array-based resequencing technology used in the project. * Download the SNPs, genotypes, and other data generated by the project, plus sequences of the long-range PCR primers used for SNP discovery. * Browse the mouse genome for SNPs. * View the haplotype blocks within the mouse genome. Mouse Genome Browser The Mouse Genome Browser can be used to visualize genes and the SNPs discovered in this study of genome-wide DNA variation in 15 commonly used, genetically diverse strains of inbred laboratory mice. The reference genome is the C57BL/6J strain NCBI build 37 mouse sequence. In addition to the experimentally-derived genotypes for the original 15 strains, the imputed genotypes for 40 additional inbred mouse strains can also be accessed. Mouse Haplotype Analysis The sequences of 16 commonly used, genetically diverse strains of inbred laboratory mice were analyzed to determine their haplotype structure. The Ancestry Browser shows which ancestral sequence each inbred strain most resembles, along with statistics on the pairwise similarity between the ancestral strains. The Haplotype Viewer shows the haplotype block boundaries and the pairwise similarity for all 56 strains: the 15 used for SNP discovery, the reference strain (C57BL/6J), and the 40 additional strains for which the genotypes were imputed.

Data set of a molecular taxonomy of lung carcinoma, the leading cause of cancer death in the United States and worldwide. Using oligonucleotide microarrays, researchers analyzed mRNA expression levels corresponding to 12,600 transcript sequences in 186 lung tumor samples, including 139 adenocarcinomas resected from the lung. Hierarchical and probabilistic clustering of expression data defined distinct sub-classes of lung adenocarcinoma. Among these were tumors with high relative expression of neuroendocrine genes and of type II pneumocyte genes, respectively. Retrospective analysis revealed a less favorable outcome for the adenocarcinomas with neuroendocrine gene expression. The diagnostic potential of expression profiling is emphasized by its ability to discriminate primary lung adenocarcinomas from metastases of extra-pulmonary origin. These results suggest that integration of expression profile data with clinical parameters could aid in diagnosis of lung cancer patients.

http://www.uniprot.org/program/Chordata

Data set of manually annotated chordata-specific proteins as well as those that are widely conserved. The program keeps existing human entries up-to-date and broadens the manual annotation to other vertebrate species, especially model organisms, including great apes, cow, mouse, rat, chicken, zebrafish, as well as Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. A draft of the complete human proteome is available in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot and one of the current priorities of the Chordata protein annotation program is to improve the quality of human sequences provided. To this aim, they are updating sequences which show discrepancies with those predicted from the genome sequence. Dubious isoforms, sequences based on experimental artifacts and protein products derived from erroneous gene model predictions are also revisited. This work is in part done in collaboration with the Hinxton Sequence Forum (HSF), which allows active exchange between UniProt, HAVANA, Ensembl and HGNC groups, as well as with RefSeq database. UniProt is a member of the Consensus CDS project and thye are in the process of reviewing their records to support convergence towards a standard set of protein annotation. They also continuously update human entries with functional annotation, including novel structural, post-translational modification, interaction and enzymatic activity data. In order to identify candidates for re-annotation, they use, among others, information extraction tools such as the STRING database. In addition, they regularly add new sequence variants and maintain disease information. Indeed, this annotation program includes the Variation Annotation Program, the goal of which is to annotate all known human genetic diseases and disease-linked protein variants, as well as neutral polymorphisms.

http://www.hgsc.bcm.tmc.edu/content/honey-bee-genome-project

The HGSC has sequenced the honey bee, Apis mellifera. The version 4.0 assembly was released in March 2006 and published in October 2006. The genome sequence is being upgraded with additional sequence coverage. The honey bee is important in the agricultural community as a producer of honey and as a facilitator of pollination. It is a model organism for studying the following human health issues: immunity, allergic reaction, antibiotic resistance, development, mental health, longevity and diseases of the X chromosome. In addition, biologists are interested in the honey bee's social organization and behavioral traits. This project was proposed to the HGSC by a group of dedicated insect biologists, headed by Gene Robinson. Following a workshop at the HGSC and a honey bee white paper, the HGSC began the project in 2002. A 6-fold coverage WGS, BAC sequence from pooled arrays, and an initial genome assembly (Amel_v1.0) were released beginning in 2003. This has been a challenging project with difficulty in recovering AT-rich regions. The WGS data had lower coverage in AT-rich regions and BAC data from clones showed evidence of internal deletions. Additional reads from AT enriched DNA addressed these underrepresented regions. The current assembly Amel_4.0 was produced with Atlas and includes 2.7 million reads (1.8 Gb) or 7.5x coverage of the (clonable) genome. About 97% of STSs, 98% of ESTs, and 96% of cDNAs are represented in the 231 Mb assembly. About 2,500 reads were also produced from a strain of Africanized honey bee and SNPs were extracted. These were released in dbSNP and the NCBI Trace Archive. Analysis of the genome by a consortium of 20 labs has been completed. This produced a gene list derived from five different methods melded through the GLEAN software. Publications include a main paper in Nature and up to forty companion papers in Genome Research and Insect Molecular Biology. Sponsors: Sequencing of the honey bee is jointly funded by National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) and the Department of Agriculture (USDA). Multiple drones from the same queen (strain DH4) were obtained from Danny Weaver of B. Weaver Apiaries. All libraries were made from DNA isolated from these drones. The honey bee BAC library (CHORI-224) was prepared by Pieter de Jong and Katzutoyo Osoegawa at the Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute.

This portal provides information about the Tribolium castabeum Genome Project. The Tribolium castaneum genome sequence and its analysis has been published in Nature, two companion journal issues (IBMB and DGE) and numerous other publications listed below. The red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum, a common pest that is also a genetic model for the Coleoptera. The genome has been sequenced to 7-fold coverage using a whole genome shotgun approach and assembled using the HGSC's assembly engine, Atlas, with methods employed for the Drosophila pseudoobscura genome assembly. Approximately 90% of the genome sequence has been mapped to chromosomes in collaboration with Dick Beeman (USDA ARS) and Sue Brown (Kansas State University). Access to the Data :- Genome Assembly: The long term home of the Tribolium genome is Beetlebase. Tcas 3.0 is now available in GenBank and on our FTP site. Note there are no restrictions of any kind on the Tribolium data as it has been published. Version 2 of the assembly, Tcas_2.0 is available for download using the FTP Data link in the sidebar. The assembly is described in detail in the README in that directory. T.cas_1.0 was a preliminary genome assembly that did not include large insert paired end information and has been moved to a previous assemblies folder. A genboree browser of the Tcas2.0 sequence is available here: There are also links to the genboree browser from the blast results (at the bottom of each reported HSP) if you use the blast server on this page. The original linear scaffold file, Tcas2.0/linearScaffolds/Tcas20050914-genome, posted on the ftp site did not include singleton contigs from the assembly and thus did not fully reflect the tribolium genome sequence, missing ~4.4Mb of sequence in 1860 contigs and reptigs or approximately 2.5% of the assembled sequence. A corrected Tcas20051011-genome file containing these missing sequences is now available on the ftp site. The blast databases have also been updated to reflect this change. All other data is correct, and not affected by this change. :- BLAST Searches: The BLAST link is located in the sidebar. :* Linearized chromosome and unplaced scaffold sequences :* Assembled contigs :* Bin0 unassembled reads and Repeat reads Traces are available from the NCBI Trace Archive by using the link in the sidebar, or by using NCBI MegaBLAST with a same species or cross species query.

http://www.bioperl.org

BioPerl is a community effort to produce Perl code which is useful in biology. This toolkit of perl modules is useful in building bioinformatics solutions in Perl. It is built in an object-oriented manner so that many modules depend on each other to achieve a task. The collection of modules in the bioperl-live repository consist of the core of the functionality of bioperl. Additionally auxiliary modules for creating graphical interfaces (bioperl-gui), persistent storage in RDMBS (bioperl-db), running and parsing the results from hundreds of bioinformatics applications (Run package), software to automate bioinformatic analyses (bioperl-pipeline) are all available as Git modules in our repository. The BioPerl toolkit provides a library of hundreds of routines for processing sequence, annotation, alignment, and sequence analysis reports. It often serves as a bridge between different computational biology applications assisting the user to construct analysis pipelines. This chapter illustrates how BioPerl facilitates tasks such as writing scripts summarizing information from BLAST reports or extracting key annotation details from a GenBank sequence record. BioPerl includes modules written by Sohel Merchant of the GO Consortium for parsing and manipulating OBO ontologies.
