A neuroscience research program that studies genes, the brain and behavior in an integrated manner, established to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of learning and memory, and shed light on the pathogenesis of disorders of cognition. Central to G2C investigations is the NMDA receptor complex (NRC/MASC), that is found at the synapses in the central nervous system which constitute the functional connections between neurons. Changes in the receptor and associated components are thought to be in a large part responsible for the phenomenon of synaptic plasticity, that may underlie learning and memory. G2C is addressing the function of synapse proteins using large scale approaches combining genomics, proteomics and genetic methods with electrophysiological and behavioral studies. This is incorporated with computational models of the organization of molecular networks at the synapse. These combined approaches provide a powerful and unique opportunity to understand the mechanisms of disease genes in behavior and brain pathology as well as provide fundamental insights into the complexity of the human brain. Additionally, Genes to Cognition makes available its biological resources, including gene-targeting vectors, ES cell lines, antibodies, and transgenic mice, generated for its phenotyping pipeline. The resources are freely-available to interested researchers.

http://www-sequence.stanford.edu/group/candida/

The Stanford Genome Technology Center began a whole genome shotgun sequencing of strain SC5314 of Candida albicans. After reaching its original goal of 1.5X mean coverage of the haploid genome (16Mb) in summer, 1998, Stanford was awarded a supplemental grant to continue sequencing up to a coverage of 10X, performing as much assembly of the sequence as possible, using recognizable genes as nucleation points. Candida albicans is one of the most commonly encountered human pathogens, causing a wide variety of infections ranging from mucosal infections in generally healthy persons to life-threatening systemic infections in individuals with impaired immunity. Oral and esophogeal Candida infections are frequently seen in AIDS patients. Few classes of drugs are effective against these fungal infections, and all of them have limitations with regard to efficacy and side-effects.

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 26, 2019.

Database of published microarray gene expression data, and a software tool for comparing that published data to a user''''s own microarray results. It is very simple to use - all you need is a web browser and a list of the probes that went up or down in your experiment. If you find L2L useful please consider contributing your published data to the L2L Microarray Database in the form of list files. L2L finds true biological patterns in gene expression data by systematically comparing your own list of genes to lists of genes that have been experimentally determined to be co-expressed in response to a particular stimulus - in other words, published lists of microarray results. The patterns it finds can point to the underlying disease process or affected molecular function that actually generated the observed changed in gene expression. Its insights are far more systematic than critical gene analyses, and more biologically relevant than pure Gene Ontology-based analyses. The publications included in the L2L MDB initially reflected topics thought to be related to Cockayne syndrome: aging, cancer, and DNA damage. Since then, the scope of the publications included has expanded considerably, to include chromatin structure, immune and inflammatory mediators, the hypoxic response, adipogenesis, growth factors, hormones, cell cycle regulators, and others. Despite the parochial origins of the database, the wide range of topics covered will make L2L of general interest to any investigator using microarrays to study human biology. In addition to the L2L Microarray Database, L2L contains three sets of lists derived from Gene Ontology categories: Biological Process, Cellular Component, and Molecular Function. As with the L2L MDB, each GO sub-category is represented by a text file that contains annotation information and a list of the HUGO symbols of the genes assigned to that sub-category or any of its descendants. You don''''t need to download L2L to use it to analyze your microarray data. There is an easy-to-use web-based analysis tool, and you have the option of downloading your results so you can view them at any time on your own computer, using any web browser. However, if you prefer, the entire L2L project, and all of its components, can be downloaded from the download page. Platform: Online tool, Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. The STACKdb is knowledgebase generated by processing EST and mRNA sequences obtained from GenBank through a pipeline consisting of masking, clustering, alignment and variation analysis steps. The STACK project aims to generate a comprehensive representation of the sequence of each of the expressed genes in the human genome by extensive processing of gene fragments to make accurate alignments, highlight diversity and provide a carefully joined set of consensus sequences for each gene. The STACK project is comprised of the STACKdb human gene index, a database of virtual human transcripts, as well as stackPACK, the tools used to create the database. STACKdb is organized into 15 tissue-based categories and one disease category. STACK is a tool for detection and visualization of expressed transcript variation in the context of developmental and pathological states. The data system organizes and reconstructs human transcripts from available public data in the context of expression state. The expression state of a transcript can include developmental state, pathological association, site of expression and isoform of expressed transcript. STACK consensus transcripts are reconstructed from clusters that capture and reflect the growing evidence of transcript diversity. The comprehensive capture of transcript variants is achieved by the use of a novel clustering approach that is tolerant of sub-sequence diversity and does not rely on pairwise alignment. This is in contrast with other gene indexing projects. STACK is generated at least four times a year and represents the exhaustive processing of all publicly available human EST data extracted from GenBank. This processed information can be explored through 15 tissue-specific categories, a disease-related category and a whole-body index

http://www.projects.roslin.ac.uk/sheepmap/front.html

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. The project aims to apply genome mapping research to sheep, utilizing previous research in sheep (in other countries) and in other species (in the UK and abroad) to the benefit of the UK sheep industry. The project itself uses existing breeding structures, knowledge of the sheep genome and experimental resources. It has three main aims: i) To use the Suffolk, Texel and Charollais Sire Referencing Schemes to detect and verify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for growth and carcass composition traits ii) To investigate candidate genes and/or chromosomal regions for associations with production traits. iii) To investigate approaches for optimizing future genotyping strategies within the sire referencing schemes for practical and cost effective application of marker-assisted selection By using commercial breeding populations for the research, immediate application of beneficial results is possible. Potential benefits include increased genetic progress through marker assisted selection which utilizes the genotype information, correction of possible parentage errors (ultimately leading to additional genetic progress) and opportunities for using marker information for product certification. The project will benefit the UK sheep industry by the use of Marker Assisted Selection (MAS) utilizing QTL or gene variants identified in the project. Additional benefits may arise from parentage verification and correction of errors e.g. misallocation of lamb to ewe. In the longer term, opportunities may exist to use markers for quality control, tracing products to their source. The major advantage of the design of this project is that the results are immediately applicable to the breeding schemes within which the QTLs and/or genes are detected. The time lag in the application of the results that is often seen with experimental populations is minimized. The project requires close involvement with the Sire Reference Schemes, in return for their assistance the results have immediate benefit to animals within these groups.
