Narrative resource describing a visual data analysis and collection approach that takes advantage of the cylindrical nature of the zebrafish allowing for an efficient and effective method for image capture called, Specimen in a Corrected Optical Rotational Enclosure (SCORE) Imaging. To achieve a non-distorted image, zebrafish were placed in a fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) tube with a surrounding, optically corrected imaging solution: water. By similarly matching the refractive index of the housing (FEP tubing) to that of the inner liquid and outer liquid (water), distortion was markedly reduced, producing a crisp imagable specimen that is able to be fully rotated 360 degrees. A similar procedure was established for fixed zebrafish embryos using convenient, readily available borosilicate capillaries surrounded by 75% glycerol. The method described could be applied to chemical genetic screening and other, related high-throughput methods within the fish community and among other scientific fields.

http://appris.bioinfo.cnio.es/

A database that houses annotations of human splice isoforms. It adds reliable protein structural and functional data and information from cross-species conservation. A visual representation of the annotations for each gene allows users to easily identify functional changes brought about by splicing events. In addition to collecting, integrating and analyzing reliable predictions of the effect of splicing events, it also selects a single reference sequence for each gene, termed the principal isoform, based on the annotations of structure, function and conservation for each transcript.

The Peptide Sequence Database contains putative peptide sequences from human, mouse, rat, and zebrafish. Compressed to eliminate redundancy, these are about 40 fold smaller than a brute force enumeration. Current and old releases are available for download. Each species'' peptide sequence database comprises peptide sequence data from releveant species specific UniGene and IPI clusters, plus all sequences from their consituent EST, mRNA and protein sequence databases, namely RefSeq proteins and mRNAs, UniProt''s SwissProt and TrEMBL, GenBank mRNA, ESTs, and high-throughput cDNAs, HInv-DB, VEGA, EMBL, IPI protein sequences, plus the enumeration of all combinations of UniProt sequence variants, Met loss PTM, and signal peptide cleavages. The README file contains some information about the non amino-acid symbols O (digest site corresponding to a protein N- or C-terminus) and J (no digest sequence join) used in these peptide sequence databases and information about how to configure various search engines to use them. Some search engines handle (very) long sequences badly and in some cases must be patched to use these peptide sequence databases. All search engines supported by the PepArML meta-search engine can (or can be patched to) successfully search these peptide sequence databases.

http://mirnamap.mbc.nctu.edu.tw

A database of experimentally verified microRNAs and miRNA target genes in human, mouse, rat, and other metazoan genomes. In addition to known miRNA targets, three computational tools previously developed, such as miRanda, RNAhybrid and TargetScan, were applied for identifying miRNA targets in 3'-UTR of genes. In order to reduce the false positive prediction of miRNA targets, several criteria are supported for filtering the putative miRNA targets. Furthermore, miRNA expression profiles can provide valuable clues for investigating the properties of miRNAs, such tissue specificity and differential expression in cancer/normal cell. Therefore, we performed the Q-PCR experiments for monitoring the expression profiles of 224 human miRNAs in eighteen major normal tissues in human. The cross-reference between the miRNA expression profiles and the expression profiles of its target genes can provide effective viewpoint to understand the regulatory functions of the miRNA.

ishFace is an atlas of zebrafish craniofacial development. How do the elements of the craniofacial skeleton arise, grow, and reshape? Answers to this question are coming from both molecular-genetic and cell-biological approaches, which rely, first of all, on precise description of the developmental events and processes that comprise skeletogenesis. Zebrafish, with a sophisticated knowledge of its genetics and genomics, with favorable attributes for phenotypic analyses of development, and with patterns of development conserved among all vertebrates, provides a powerful animal model for learning about craniofacial development. In particular, with current transgenic approaches one can examine craniofacial skeletal elements in exquisite cellular detail during an extended period of development within living, intact embryos and larvae an investigative method unsurpassed in accuracy and sensitivity. We constructed this developmental atlas of the craniofacial skeleton, FishFace, to serve as a guide for such study. We hope that the FishFace Atlas will be particularly useful in comparative and mutational analyses where there is interest in understanding the cellular basis of early skeletogenesis. The heart of the FishFace Atlas uses high magnification (generally a 40x objective) confocal image stacks showing transgenically-labelled chondrocytes or osteoblasts, along with mineralized bone matrix, which is visualized by vital staining with Alizarin red. We present these stacks in sequences that follow particular individual cartilages and bones of the first two pharyngeal arches as they develop during embryonic and larval stages. To do so, we build on the foundation set out in the gold standard reference for describing comprehensively skeletal elements in the zebrafish craniofacial complex, Cubbage and Mabee (1996), which used fixed preparations stained for cartilage and bone through adult stages. The FishFace Atlas element development section adds considerable detail to arch one and two early development, particularly at the cellular level, but also in description of element growth and shaping. Other sections of the FishFace Atlas, at lower magnification, provide anatomical context for the element development section, including an interactive tool made by optical projection tomography (OPT) for learning the anatomy of the entire larval skull. Hence, the FishFace Atlas provides the community with an interactive resource with which the user can understand not only the cellular details, but also complex 3D anatomical relationships, of developing elements in the craniofacial skeleton of the zebrafish.

Data sets of protein-coding intron-containing genes that contain gene information from humans, mice, rats, and other eukaryotes, as well as genes from species whose genomes have not been completely sequenced. This is a comprehensive and convenient dataset of sequences for computational biologists who study exon-intron gene structures and pre-mRNA splicing. The database is derived from GenBank release 112, and it contains protein-coding genes that harbor introns, along with extensive descriptions of each gene and its DNA and protein sequences, as well as splice motif information. They have created subdatabases of genes whose intron positions have been experimentally determined. The collection also contains data on untranslated regions of gene sequences and intron-less genes. For species with entirely sequenced genomes, species-specific databases have been generated. A novel Mammalian Orthologous Intron Database (MOID) has been introduced which includes the full set of introns that come from orthologous genes that have the same positions relative to the reading frames.

Part of zebrafish genome project. ZGC project to produce cDNA libraries, clones and sequences to provide complete set of full-length (open reading frame) sequences and cDNA clones of expressed genes for zebrafish. All ZGC sequences are deposited in GenBank and clones can be purchased from distributors of IMAGE consortium. With conclusion of ZGC project in September 2008, GenBank records of ZGC sequences will be frozen, without further updates. Since definition of what constitutes full-length coding region for some of genes and transcripts for which we have ZGC clones will likely change in future, users planning to order ZGC clones will need to monitor for these changes. Users can make use of genome browsers and gene-specific databases, such as UCSC Genome browser, NCBI's Map Viewer, and Entrez Gene, to view relevant regions of genome (browsers) or gene-related information (Entrez Gene).
