http://www.GeneWeaver.org

Freely accessible phenotype-centered database with integrated analysis and visualization tools. It combines diverse data sets from multiple species and experiment types, and allows data sharing across collaborative groups or to public users. It was conceived of as a tool for the integration of biological functions based on the molecular processes that subserved them. From these data, an empirically derived ontology may one day be inferred. Users have found the system valuable for a wide range of applications in the arena of functional genomic data integration.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on January 08, 2013. A consortium of three facilities whose purpose is to establish, characterize, and distribute novel mutant mouse models with neural and/or behavioral phenotypes, and distribute them to the worldwide research community. Interested scientists are able to obtain information about mouse lines at all three sites in a single unified database. GOALS * Increase genomic and genetic tools for functional gene identification * Provide mice with mutations that alter the nervous system or behavior * Build collaborations between geneticists and neuroscientists The consortium is made up of three mutagenesis and phenotypic screening facilities, focused on identifying alterations in nervous system function and behavior, and established by NIH. They are the Neurogenomics Project at Northwestern University, the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility at The Jackson Laboratory, and the Neuromutagenesis Project of the Tennessee Mouse Genome Consortium. The NIH Neurogenomics Project at Northwestern University is directed by Dr. Joseph S. Takahashi, who also acts as the Director of the Neuromice.org consortium. Chemical mutagenesis is used to induce mutations throughout the genome and combined with phenotypic screens to detect mice with mutations. In order to maximize the genomic coverage and recover both dominant and recessive mutations, a dominant G1 screen and a recessive G3 screen are utilized. Phenotypic screens focus on five primary domains: learning and memory, behavioral responses to stress, responses to psychostimulants, circadian rhythmicity, and vision. The Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility at the Jackson Laboratory is directed by Dr. Wayne N. Frankel. The Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility is using a three-generation backcross breeding scheme to produce homozygous mutants and will thus recover dominant, semidominant, and recessive mutations. In addition, some mutagenesis will be done in ES cells followed by two generations of breeding. Phenotypic screens focus on identifying mutations affecting: motor function, seizure threshold, hearing, vision, and neurodevelopment. The Neuromutagenesis Project of the Tennessee Mouse Genome Consortium (TMGC) involves researchers throughout the state of Tennessee, under the direction of Dr. Daniel Goldowitz, Ph.D., at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis. TMGC also includes researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Vanderbilt University, Meharry Medical College, University of Tennessee-Knoxville, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and the University of Memphis. The Project is using regional mutagenesis, covering regions on chromosomes 10, 14, 15, 19, and X, thus including approximately 15 of the genome in the screened region. Phenotypic screens include: motor and sensory function, learning and memory, neurohistology, aging, alcohol response, abused drug response, visual function, and social behavior. Neuromice.org has stopped taking orders online but mutants are orderable please contact the originating center for availability and pricing details. Live targeted mutant Fragile X model mice are now available for distribution.

http://jilab.biostat.jhsph.edu/database/cgi-bin/hmChIP.pl

A database of genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) data in human and mouse. Currently, the database contains >2000 samples from >500 ChIP-seq and ChIP-chip experiments, representing a total of >170 proteins and >10,000,000 protein-DNA interactions (March 2014). A web server provides an interface for database query. Protein-DNA binding intensities can be retrieved from individual samples for user-provided genomic regions. The retrieved intensities can be used to cluster samples and genomic regions to facilitate exploration of combinatorial patterns, cell type dependencies, and cross-sample variability of protein-DNA interactions.
