MITRE Neuroinformatics Resource Report Resource Website |
MITRE Neuroinformatics (RRID:SCR_006508) | MITRE Neuroinfomatics | software application, data distribution software, data analysis software, software resource, data processing software, data visualization software, data transfer software, simulation software | This resource''s long-term goal is to develop informatics methodologies and tools that will increase the creativity and productivity of neuroscience investigators, as they work together to use shared human brain mapping data to generate and test ideas far beyond those pursued by the data''s originators. This resource currently has four major projects supporting this goal: * Database tools: The goal of the NeuroServ project is to provide neuroscience researchers with automated information management tools that reduce the effort required to manage, analyze, query, view, and share their imaging data. It currently manages both structural magnetic resonance image (MRI) datasets and diffusion tensor image (DTI) datasets. NeuroServ is fully web-enabled: data entry, query, processing, reporting, and administrative functions are performed by qualified users through a web browser. It can be used as a local laboratory repository, to share data on the web, or to support a large distributed consortium. NeuroServ is based on an industrial-quality query middleware engine MRALD. NeuroServ includes a specialized neuroimaging schema and over 40 custom Java Server Pages supporting data entry, query, and reporting to help manage and explore stored images. NeuroServ is written in Java for platform independence; it also utilizes several open source components * Data sharing: DataQuest is a collaborative forum to facilitate the sharing of neuroimaging data within the neuroscience community. By publishing summaries of existing datasets, DataQuest enables researchers to: # Discover what data is available for collaborative research # Advertise your data to other researchers for potential collaborations # Discover which researchers may have the data you need # Discover which researchers are interested in your data. * Image quality: The approach to assessing the inherent quality of an image is to measure how distorted the image is. Using what are referred to as no-reference or blind metrics, one can measure the degree to which an image is distorted. * Content-based image retrieval: NIRV (NeuroImagery Retrieval & Visualization) is a work environment for advanced querying over imagery. NIRV will have a Java-based front-end for users to issue queries, run processing algorithms, review results, visualize imagery and assess image quality. NIRV interacts with an image repository such as NeuroServ. Users can also register images and will soon be able to filter searches based on image quality. | brain, data, diffusion tensor image, distorted, human, imagery, image, informatics, investigator, laboratory, magnetic resonance image, mapping, neuroscience, structural, visualization, neuroimaging | Human Brain Project ; MITRE Technology Program ; NSF ; NIMH R01-MH64417 |

HumanCyc: Encyclopedia of Homo sapiens Genes and Metabolism (RRID:SCR_007050) | HumanCyc | service resource, data or information resource, data analysis service, database, software resource, production service resource, analysis service resource | The HumanCyc database describes human metabolic pathways and the human genome. By presenting metabolic pathways as an organizing framework for the human genome, HumanCyc provides the user with an extended dimension for functional analysis of Homo sapiens at the genomic level. A computational pathway analysis of the human genome assigned human enzymes to predicted metabolic pathways. Pathway assignments place genes in their larger biological context, and are a necessary step toward quantitative modeling of metabolism. HumanCyc contains the complete genome sequence of Homo sapiens, as presented in Build 31. Data on the human genome from Ensembl, LocusLink and GenBank were carefully merged to create a minimally redundant human gene set to serve as an input to SRI''s PathoLogic software, which generated the database and predicted Homo sapiens metabolic pathways from functional information contained in the genome''s annotation. SRI did not re-annotate the genome, but worked with the gene function assignments in Ensembl, LocusLink, and GenBank. The resulting pathway/genome database (PGDB) includes information on 28,783 genes, their products and the metabolic reactions and pathways they catalyze. Also included are many links to other databases and publications. The Pathway Tools software/database bundle includes HumanCyc and the Pathway Tools software suite and is available under license.

Human Ageing Genomic Resources Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
Human Ageing Genomic Resources (RRID:SCR_007700) | HAGR | data or information resource, database, software toolkit, software resource | Collection of databases and tools designed to help researchers study the genetics of human ageing using modern approaches such as functional genomics, network analyses, systems biology and evolutionary analyses. A major resource in HAGR is GenAge, which includes a curated database of genes related to human aging and a database of ageing- and longevity-associated genes in model organisms. Another major database in HAGR is AnAge. Featuring over 4,000 species, AnAge provides a compilation of data on aging, longevity, and life history that is ideal for the comparative biology of aging. GenDR is a database of genes associated with dietary restriction based on genetic manipulation experiments and gene expression profiling. Other projects include evolutionary studies, genome sequencing, cancer genomics, and gene expression analyses. The latter allowed them to identify a set of genes commonly altered during mammalian aging which represents a conserved molecular signature of aging. Software, namely in the form of scripts for Perl and SPSS, is made available for users to perform a variety of bioinformatic analyses potentially relevant for studying aging. The Perl toolkit, entitled the Ageing Research Computational Tools (ARCT), provides modules for parsing files, data-mining, searching and downloading data from the Internet, etc. Also available is an SPSS script that can be used to determine the demographic rate of aging for a given population. An extensive list of links regarding computational biology, genomics, gerontology, and comparative biology is also available. | gene, gerontology, human, model, senescence, genomics, longevity, genetics, perl, spss, demographic analysis, genome, evolution, gene expression, model organism, human aging, dietary restriction, genetic manipulation |

Organelle DB Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Organelle DB (RRID:SCR_007837) | Organelle DB | service resource, data or information resource, data repository, database, image collection, d spatial image, storage service resource | Database of organelle proteins, and subcellular structures / complexes from compiled protein localization data from organisms spanning the eukaryotic kingdom. All data may be downloaded as a tab-delimited text file and new localization data (and localization images, etc) for any organism relevant to the data sets currently contained in Organelle DB is welcomed. The data sets in Organelle DB encompass 138 organisms with emphasis on the major model systems: S. cerevisiae, A. thaliana, D. melanogaster, C. elegans, M. musculus, and human proteins as well. In particular, Organelle DB is a central repository of yeast protein localization data, incorporating results from both previous and current (ongoing) large-scale studies of protein localization in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In addition, we have manually curated several recent subcellular proteomic studies for incorporation in Organelle DB. In total, Organelle DB is a singular resource consolidating our knowledge of the protein composition of eukaryotic organelles and subcellular structures. When available, we have included terms from the Gene Ontologies: the cellular component, molecular function, and biological process fields are discussed more fully in GO. Additionally, when available, we have included fluorescent micrographs (principally of yeast cells) visualizing the described protein localization. Organelle View is a visualization tool for yeast protein localization. It is a visually engaging way for high school and undergraduate students to learn about genetics or for visually-inclined researchers to explore Organelle DB. By revealing the data through a colorful, dimensional model, we believe that different kinds of information will come to light. | gene, fly, vertebrate, human, mouse, plant, worm, yeast, protein, k-12, organelle, protein localization, function, subcellular structure, protein complex, sequence, annotation, micrograph, visualization, data analysis service |
