Collection of revertible protein trap gene-breaking transposon (GBT) insertional mutants in zebrafish with active or cryopreserved lines from initially identified lines. Open to community-wide contributions including expression and functional annotation and represents world-wide central hub for information on how to obtain these lines from diverse members of International Zebrafish Protein Trap Consortium (IZPTC) and integration within other zebrafish community databases including Zebrafish Information Network (ZFIN), Ensembl and National Center for Biotechnology Information. Registration allows users to save their favorite lines for easy access, request lines from Mayo Clinic catalog, contribute to line annotation with appropriate credit, and puts them on optional mailing list for future zfishbook newletters and updates.

Open source relational database of signaling and metabolic molecules and their relations organized into biological pathways and processes. Core unit of Reactome data model is the reaction. Entities (nucleic acids, proteins, complexes, vaccines, anti-cancer therapeutics and small molecules) participating in reactions form network of biological interactions and are grouped into pathways including classical intermediary metabolism, signaling, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis and disease. External domain expert provides expertise, curator formalizes it into database structure, and external domain expert reviews representation. System of evidence tracking ensures that all assertions are backed up by primary literature. Website is designed to give the user graphical map of known biological processes and pathways that is also an interface. Database and website enable to find, organize, and utilize biological information to support data visualization, integration and analysis.
