THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. For updated mutant information, please visit MMRRC or The Jackson Laboratory. Produces, characterizes, and distributes mutant mouse strains with defects in embryonic and postembryonic development. The goal of the ENU Mutagenesis project III is to determine the function of genes on mouse Chromosome 11 by saturating the chromosome with recessive mutations. The distal 40 cM of mouse Chr 11 exhibits linkage conservation with human Chromosome 17. We are using the chemical N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) to saturate wild type chromosomes with point mutations. By determining the function of genes on a mouse chromosome, we can extrapolate to predict function on a human chromosome. We expect many of the new mutants to represent models of human diseases such as birth defects, patterning defects, growth and endocrine defects, neurological anomalies, and blood defects. Because many of the mutations we expect to isolate may be lethal or detrimental to the mice, we are using a unique approach to isolate mutations. This approach uses a balancer chromosome that is homozygous lethal and carries a dominant coat color marker to suppress recombination over a reasonable interval.

http://dgcst.ceinge.unina.it/

A database of conserved sequence elements, identified by a systematic genomic sequence comparison between a set of human genes involved in the pathogenesis of genetic disorders and their murine counterparts. Human and mouse genomic sequences were compared by BLASTZ. Sequences longer than 100 and with identity better than 70 were selected as CSTs and imported into the database. CSTs are extensively annotated with respect to exon/intron structure and other biological parameters. CST counterparts in other species were identified by using BLAST to scan genomes from other species, and selecting on the basis of homology and co-linearity. The database can be accessed by gene, chromosomal location, graphic browser, DNA features, and coding regions.

http://www.cisred.org/

Database for conserved sequence motifs identified by genome scale motif discovery, similarity, clustering, co-occurrence and coexpression calculations. Sequence inputs include low-coverage genome sequence data and ENCODE data. The database offers information on atomic motifs, motif groups and patterns. In promoter-based cisRED databases, sequence search regions for motif discovery extend from 1.5 Kb upstream to 200b downstream of a transcription start site, net of most types of repeats and of coding exons. Many transcription factor binding sites are located in such regions. For each target gene's search region, a base set of probabilistic ab initio discovery tools is used, in parallel, to find over-represented atomic motifs. Discovery methods use comparative genomics with over 40 vertebrate input genomes. In ChIP-seq-based cisRED databases, sequence search regions for motif discovery correspond to significant peaks that represent genome-wide sites of protein-DNA binding. Because such peaks occur in a wide range of genic and intergenic locations, ChIP-seq and promoter-based databases are complementary. Currently, motif discovery for ChIP-seq data uses scan-based approaches that make more explicit use of sets of sequences known to be functional transcription factor binding sites, and that consider a wide range of levels of conservation. For the human STAT1 ChIP-seq database search regions in the target species (human) was selected +/- 300 bp around the ChIP-seq peak maximum. Repeats and coding regions were masked. Multiple sequence alignment were used to assemble orthologous input sequences from other species.

http://www.credrivermice.org/expression/

Database of microarray analysis of twelve major classes of fluorescent labeled neurons within the adult mouse forebrain that provide the first comprehensive view of gene expression differences. The publicly available datasets demonstrate a profound molecular heterogeneity among neuronal subtypes, represented disproportionately by gene paralogs, and begin to reveal the genetic programs underlying the fundamental divisions between neuronal classes including that between glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons. Five of the 12 populations were chosen from cingulate cortex and included several subtypes of GABAergic interneurons and pyramidal neurons. The remaining seven were derived from the somatosensory cortex, hippocampus, amygdala and thalamus. Using these expression profiles, they were able to construct a taxonomic tree that reflected the expected major relationships between these populations, such as the distinction between cortical interneurons and projection neurons. The taxonomic tree indicated highly heterogeneous gene expression even within a single region. This dataset should be useful for the classification of unknown neuronal subtypes, the investigation of specifically expressed genes and the genetic manipulation of specific neuronal circuit elements. Datasets: * Full: Here you can query gene expression results for the neuronal populations * Strain: Here you can query the same expression results accessed under the full checkbox, with one additional population (CT6-CG2) included as a control for the effects of mouse strain. This population is identical to CT6-CG (YFPH) except the neurons were derived from wild-type mice of three distinct strains: G42, G30, and GIN. * Arlotta: Here you can query the same expression results accessed under the full checkbox, with nine additional populations from the dataset of Arlotta et al., 2005. These populations were purified by FACS after retrograde labeling with fluorescent microspheres. Populations are designated by the prefix ACS for corticospinal neurons, ACC for corticocallosal neurons and ACT for corticotectal neurons, followed by the suffix E18 for gestational age 18 embryos, or P3, P6 and P14 for postnatal day 3, 6 and 14 pups. For each successful gene query the following information is returned: # Signal level line plot: Signal level is plotted on Y-axis (log base 2) for each sample. Samples include the thirty six representing the twelve populations profiled in Sugino et al. In addition, six samples from homogenized (=dissociated and but not sorted) cortex are included representing two different strains: G42-HO is homogenate from strain G42, GIN-HO is homogenate from stain GIN. # Signal level raster plots: Signal level is represented by color (dark red is low, bright red is high) for all samples. Color scale is set to match minimum (dark red) and maximum (bright yellow) signal levels within the displayed set of probe sets. # Scaled signal level raster plots: Same as 2) except color scale is adjusted separately for each gene according to its maximum and minimum signal level. # Table: Basic information about the returned probe sets: * Affymetrix affyid of probe set * NCBI gene symbol, NCBI gene name * NCBI geneID * P-value score from ANOVA for each gene is also given if available (_anv column). P-value represents the probability that there is no difference in the expression across cell types.

http://fantom.gsc.riken.jp/4/

The FANTOM consortium is an international collaborative research project initiated and organized by the RIKEN Omics Science Center. In earlier FANTOM efforts we cloned and annotated 103,000 full-length cDNAs from mouse and distributed them to researchers throughout the world. FANTOM1-3 focused on identifying the transcribed components of mammalian cells. This work improved estimates of the total number of genes and their alternative transcript isoforms in both human and mouse, expanded gene families, and revealed that a large fraction of the transcriptome is non-coding. In addition, with the development of Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE) FANTOM3 could map a large fraction of transcription start sites and revise our models of promoter structure. This updated web resource provides the previous FANTOM results mapped to current genome builds and presents the results of FANTOM4. In FANTOM4 the focus has changed to understanding how these components work together in the context of a biological network. Using deepCAGE (deep sequencing with CAGE) we monitored the dynamics of transcription start site (TSS) usage during a time course of monocytic differentiation in the acute myeloid leukemia cell line THP-1. This allowed us to identify active promoters, monitor their relative expression and define relevant regions for carrying out transcription factor binding site predictions. Computational methods were then used to build a network model of gene expression in this leukemia and the transcription factors key to its regulation. This work gives the first picture of the wiring between genes involved in acute myeloid leukemia and provides a strategy for identifying key factors that determine cell fates. In addition to the network, FANTOM4 data was used in two additional analyses. The first identified a novel class of short RNAs associated with transcription start sites and the second focused on the role of repetitive element expression in the transcriptome. TOOLS *Genome Browser: graphical display of genomic features, such as promoters, exon structures, H3K9 acetylation, transcription factors positioning on the genome, coupled with gene and promoter activities. *EdgeExpressDB: regulatory interactions, such as transcriptional regulation, post-transcriptional silencing with miRNA, and PPI, coupled with gene and promoter activities. *SwissRegulon: FANTOM4 TF regulation is predicted using Motif Activity Response Analysis (MARA) developed by Erik van Nimwegen at Biozentrum.
