International collaboration producing an extensive public catalog of human genetic variation, including SNPs and structural variants, and their haplotype contexts, in an effort to provide a foundation for investigating the relationship between genotype and phenotype. The genomes of about 2500 unidentified people from about 25 populations around the world were sequenced using next-generation sequencing technologies. Redundant sequencing on various platforms and by different groups of scientists of the same samples can be compared. The results of the study are freely and publicly accessible to researchers worldwide. The consortium identified the following populations whose DNA will be sequenced: Yoruba in Ibadan, Nigeria; Japanese in Tokyo; Chinese in Beijing; Utah residents with ancestry from northern and western Europe; Luhya in Webuye, Kenya; Maasai in Kinyawa, Kenya; Toscani in Italy; Gujarati Indians in Houston; Chinese in metropolitan Denver; people of Mexican ancestry in Los Angeles; and people of African ancestry in the southwestern United States. The goal Project is to find most genetic variants that have frequencies of at least 1% in the populations studied. Sequencing is still too expensive to deeply sequence the many samples being studied for this project. However, any particular region of the genome generally contains a limited number of haplotypes. Data can be combined across many samples to allow efficient detection of most of the variants in a region. The Project currently plans to sequence each sample to about 4X coverage; at this depth sequencing cannot provide the complete genotype of each sample, but should allow the detection of most variants with frequencies as low as 1%. Combining the data from 2500 samples should allow highly accurate estimation (imputation) of the variants and genotypes for each sample that were not seen directly by the light sequencing. All samples from the 1000 genomes are available as lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) and LCL derived DNA from the Coriell Cell Repository as part of the NHGRI Catalog. The sequence and alignment data generated by the 1000genomes project is made available as quickly as possible via their mirrored ftp sites. ftp://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1000genomes

The E. coli Genome Project has the goal of completely sequencing the E. coli and human genomes. They began isolation of an overlapping lambda clonebank of E. coli K-12 strain MG1655. Those clones served as the starting material in our initial efforts to sequence the whole genome. Improvements in sequencing technology have since reached the point where whole-genome sequencing of microbial genomes is routine, and the human genome has in fact been completed. They initiated additional sequencing efforts, concentrating on pathogenic members of the family Enterobacteriaceae -- to which E. coli belongs. They also began a systematic functional characterization of E. coli K-12 genes and their regulation, using the whole genome sequence to address how the over 4000 genes of this organism act together to enable its survival in a wide range of environments.

Downloadable files of the bos taurus genome. Draft assemblies available for download as contigs or linearized scaffolds of the genomic sequence of cow, Bos taurus, including the final draft assembly (7.1 coverage) and the two previous assemblies. The genome is sequenced to 6- to 8-fold sequence depth, with high-quality finished sequence in some areas. Accompanying EST and SNP analyses is also included. The bovine genome assembly and analysis and the study of cattle genetic history were published in April 24, 2009 issue of Science. The Human Genome Sequencing Center provides BLAST searches of the genome assemblies, either as contigs or as linearized chromosome sequences. The WGS sequence enriched BAC assemblies and the unassembled reads (sequencing reads that did not end up in the genome assembly) can also be searched by BLAST. 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.

The Brain Molecular Anatomy Project is a trans-NIH project aimed at understanding gene expression and function in the nervous system. BMAP has two major scientific goals: # Gene discovery: to catalog of all the genes expressed in the nervous system, under both normal and abnormal conditions. # Gene expression analysis: to monitor gene expression patterns in the nervous system as a function of cell type, anatomical location, developmental stage, and physiological state, and thus gain insight into gene function. In pursuit of these goals, BMAP has launched several initiatives to provide resources and funding opportunities for the scientific community. These include several Requests for Applications and Requests for Proposals, descriptions of which can be found in this Web site. BMAP is also in the process of establishing physical and electronic resources for the community, including repositories of cDNA clones for nervous system genes, and databases of gene expression information for the nervous system. Most of the BMAP initiatives so far have focused on the mouse as a model species because of the ease of experimental and genetic manipulation of this organism, and because many models of human disease are available in the mouse. However, research in humans, other mammalian species, non-mammalian vertebrates, and invertebrates is also being funded through BMAP. For the convenience of interested investigators, we have established this Web site as a central information resource, focusing on major NIH-sponsored funding opportunities, initiatives, genomic resources available to the research community, courses and scientific meetings related to BMAP initiatives, and selected reports and publications. When appropriate, we will also post initiatives not directly sponsored by BMAP, but which are deemed relevant to its goals. Posting decisions are made by the Trans-NIH BMAP Committee

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on 05 01 2025. PhenX is a project to prioritize Phenotype and eXposure measures for Genome-wide Association Studies (GWAS). Leaders of the scientific community will assess and prioritize a broad range of domains relevant to genomics research and public health. The PhenX Steering Committee (SC), chaired by Dr. Jonathan Haines, provides leadership in the selection of domains and domain experts. Members of the SC include outstanding scientists from the research community and liaisons from the Institutes and Centers of the National Institutes of Health. Consensus measures for GWAS will have a direct impact on biomedical research and ultimately on public health. During the course of this project, up to 20 research domains will be examined, with up to 15 measures being recommended for use in future GWAS and other large-scale genomic research efforts. The goal is to maximize the benefits of future research by having comparable measures so that studies can be integrated. Each selected domain will be reviewed by a Working Group (WG) of scientists who are experts in the research area. A systematic review of the literature will guide the WGs selection of up to 15 high priority measures with standardized approaches for measurement. Selection criteria for the measures include factors such as validity, reproducibility, cost, feasibility, and burden to both investigators and participants. The scientific community will be asked to provide input on proposed measures. Consensus development is a key component of the project.
