http://www.stanford.edu/group/nolan/retroviral_systems/phx.html
A second-generation retrovirus producer lines for the generation of helper free ecotropic and amphotropic retroviruses. The lines are based on the 293T cell line (a human embryonic kidney line transformed with adenovirus E1a and carrying a temperature sensitive T antigen co-selected with neomycin). The unique feature of this cell line is that it is highly transfectable with either calcium phosphate mediated transfection or lipid-based transfection protocols-- up to 50% or higher of cells can be transiently transfected. The lines were created by placing into 293T cells constructs capable of producing gag-pol, and envelope protein for ecotropic and amphotropic viruses. The lines offered advantages over previous stable systems in that virus can be produced in just a few days. Academic and non-profit laboratories may obtain the Phoenix cells from either Allele Biotechnology or the National Gene Vector Bank. The vectors may be obtained from Addgene. They are no longer distributing these reagents from the lab.

http://bioportal.bioontology.org/annotator
A Web service that annotates textual metadata (e.g. journal abstract) with relevant ontology concepts. NCBO uses this Web service to annotate resources in the NCBO Resource Index. They also provide this Web service as a stand-alone service for users. This Web service can be accessed through BioPortal or used directly in your software. Currently, the annotation workflow is based on syntactic concept recognition (using concept names and synonyms) and on a set of semantic expansion algorithms that leverage the semantics in ontologies (e.g., is_a relations). Their service methodology leverages ontologies to create annotations of raw text and returns them using semantic web standards.

http://bejerano.stanford.edu/phenotree/
Web server to search for genes involved in given phenotypic difference between mammalian species. The mouse-referenced multiple alignment data files used to perform the forward genomics screen is also available. The webserver implements one strategy of a Forward Genomics approach aiming at matching phenotype to genotype. Forward genomics matches a given pattern of phenotypic differences between species to genomic differences using a genome-wide screen. In the implementation, the divergence of the coding region of genes in mammals is measured. Given an ancestral phenotypic trait that is lost in independent mammalian lineages, it is shown that searching for genes that are more diverged in all trait-loss species can discover genes that are involved in the given phenotype.

SimTK Core is one of the two packages that together constitute SimTK, the biosimulation toolkit from the Simbios Center. The other major component of SimTK is OpenMM which is packaged separately. This SimTK Core project collects together all the binaries needed for the various SimTK Core subprojects. These include Simbody, Molmodel, Simmath (including Ipopt), Simmatrix, CPodes, SimTKcommon, and Lapack. See the individual projects for descriptions. SimTK brings together in a robust, convenient, open source form the collection of highly-specialized technologies necessary to building successful physics-based simulations of biological structures. These include: strict adherence to an important set of abstractions and guiding principles, robust, high-performance numerical methods, support for developing and sharing physics-based models, and careful software engineering. Accessible High Performance Computing We believe that a primary concern of simulation scientists is performance, that is, speed of computation. We seek to build valid, approximate models using classical physics in order to achieve reasonable run times for our computational studies, so that we can hope to learn something interesting before retirement. In the choice of SimTK technologies, we are focused on achieving the best possible performance on hardware that most researchers actually have. In today''s practice, that means commodity multiprocessors and small clusters. The difference in performance between the best methods and the do-it-yourself techniques most people use can be astoundingeasily an order of magnitude or more. The growing set of SimTK Core libraries seeks to provide the best implementation of the best-known methods for widely used computations such as: Linear algebra, numerical integration and Monte Carlo sampling, multibody (internal coordinate) dynamics, molecular force field evaluation, nonlinear root finding and optimization. All SimTK Core software is in the form of C++ APIs, is thread-safe, and quietly exploits multiple CPUs when they are present. The resulting pre-built binaries are available for download and immediate use. Audience: Biosimulation application programmers interested in including robust, high-performance physics-based simulation in their domain-specific applications.

LPFC is a database of structural alignments of protein families and computed average core structures for each family. The core structures can be divided into residues with low spatial variation and those with high spatial variation. Amino acids with low spatial variance occupy essentially the same relative position in all family members. This library is useful for building models, threading, and exploratory analysis. It is also a useful mechanism for summarizing variability in NMR structures., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

This database contains different yeast strains searchable by ORF and gene name, and serves to support the Yeast Deletion and the Mitochondrial Proteomics Project. The database is hyperlinked with other public databases. The project aims to increase the understanding of mitochondrial function and biogenesis in the context of the cell. In the Deletion Project, strains from the deletion collection were monitored under 9 different media conditions selected for the study of mitochondrial function. 5791 heterozygous diploid and 4706 homozygous diploid deletion strains were monitored in parallel using molecular barcodes on fermentable (YPD, YPDGE) and non-fermentable substrates (YPG, YPE, YPL). The YDPM database contains both the raw data and growth rates calculated for each strain in each media condition. Strains can be searched by ORF or Gene name to access growth measurements and data plots for each strain.

This is an open-source Mouse Exonic Evidence-Based Oligonucleotide Chip (MEEBOChip), and are in the process of building the human counterpart, HEEBOChip. The set of 70mers for MEEBOChip is already available from Illumina, Inc., with synthesis of HEEBOChip 70mers in progress. Both arrays are based on a novel selection of exonic long-oligonucleotides (70-mers) from a genomic annotation of the corresponding complete genome sequences, using a transcriptome-based annotation of exon structure for each genomic locus. Using a combination of existing and custom-tailored tools and datasets (including millions of mRNA and EST sequences), we built and performed a systematic examination of transcript-supported exon structure for each genomic locus at the base-pair level (i.e., exonic evidence). This strategy allowed them to select both constitutive and in many cases alternative exons for nearly every gene in the corresponding genome (e.g., protocadherin locus), allowing an unprecedented exploration of human and mouse biology. Furthermore, they used experimentally derived data to hone the selection of these 70mers, helping maximize their performance under typical fluorescent labeling and hybridization conditions. Specifically, they applied and refined the ArrayOligoSelector algorithm from Joe DeRisis laboratory to select 70mers, considering not only their uniqueness (i.e., hybridization specificity) within the content of the entire genome, but also to overcome the known biases of labeling and hybridization methods (e.g., 3-biased reverse transcription and in vitro transcription reactions).
