The goal of this project is to decipher the transcriptional information contained in the extensive cis-acting DNA sequences that direct the patterns of gene expression that underlie animal development. Using the early embryo of the fruitfly Drosophila melanogaster as a model, these researchers are developing experimental and computational methods to systematically characterize and dissect the complex expression patterns and regulatory interactions already present prior to gastrulation. They have identified 37 principal regulatory factors within this network for initial analysis together with their target genes. Sponsors: This project is chiefly funded by a grant from NIGMS and NHGRI, R01 GM070444. Additional funding comes from grants to Michael Eisen, Sue Celniker, and Bernd Hamann.

http://www.rad.upenn.edu/sbia/braid/braid_web/index.html

Large-scale archive of normalized digital spatial and functional data with an analytical query mechanism. One of its many applications is the elucidation of brain structure-function relationships. BRAID stores spatially defined data from digital brain images which have been mapped into normalized Cartesian coordinates, allowing image data from large populations of patients to be combined and compared. The database also contains neurological data from each patient and a query mechanism that can perform statistical structure-function correlations. The project is developing database technology for the manipulation and analysis of 3-dimensional brain images derived from MRI, PET, CT, etc. BRAID is based on the PostgreSQL server, an object/relational DBMS, which allows a standard relational DBMS to be augmented with application-specific datatypes and operators. The BRAID project is adding operations and datatypes to support querying, manipulation and analysis of 3D medical images, including: * Image Datatypes: BRAID supports a family of 3D image datatypes, each having an abstract type and an implementation type. Abstract types include boolean (for regions of interest), integer, float, vector (for representing morphological changes), tensor (for representing derivatives and standard deviations of vector images) and color. Implementation types at present include line-segment format and voxel array. * Image Operators: BRAID supports addition of images, multiplication (which is interpreted as intersection for boolean images), coercion of an image''s abstract or implementation type to another value, and determination of volumes of regions of interest. * Statistical Operators: A chi-squared test has been added to SQL as an aggregate operator on pairs of boolean values. * Web Interface: A general-purpose Web gateway allows the results of queries that return computed images to be displayed. You can download the BRAID source code 2.0. This version is developed under postgreSQL 7.3.4., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://www.neurostruct.org

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. A built-in toolbox for the tracing and analysis of neuroanatomy from nanoscale (high-resolution) imaging. It is a project under ongoing development. The name is originating by merging the words Neuron + reconstruct. The working concept is organized in filters applied successively on the image stack to be processed (pipeline). Currently, the focus of the software is the extraction of detailed neuroanatomical profiles from nanoscale imaging techniques, such as the Serial Block-Face Scanning Electron Microscopy (SBFSEM). The techniques applied, however, may be used to analyze data from various imaging methods and neuronal versatility. The underlying idea of Neurostruct is the use of slim interfaces/filters allowing an efficient use of new libraries and data streaming. The image processing follows in voxel pipelines by using the CUDA programming model and all filters are programmed in a datasize-independent fashion. Thus Neurostruct exploits efficiency and datasize-independence in an optimal way. Neurostruct is based on the following main principles: * Image processing in voxel pipelines using the general purpose graphics processing units (GPGPU) programming model. * Efficient implementation of these interfaces. Programming model and image streaming that guarantees a minimal performance penalty. * Datasize-independent programming model enabling independence from the processed image stack. * Management of the filters and IO data through shell scripts. The executables (filters) are currently managed through shell scripts. The application focuses currently in the tracing of single-biocytin filled cells using SBFSEM imaging. : * Extraction of neuroanatomical profiles: 3D reconstrution and 1D skeletons of the imaged neuronal structure. * Complete tracing: Recognition of the full neuronal structure using envelope techniques, thereby remedying the problem of spines with thin necks of an internal diameter approaching the SBFSEM resolution. * Separation (Coloring) of subcellular structures: Algorithms for the separation of spines from their root dendritic stem. * Evaluation and analysis of the imaged neuroanatomy: Calculation of the dendritic and spine membrane''s surface, spine density and variation, models of dendrites and spines

This project encompasses development of novel biological network analysis methods and infrastructure for querying biological data in a semantically-enabled format, and aims to create a semantic interactome model. Research within the BioMANTA project will focus on computational modelling and analysis, primarily using Semantic Web technologies and Machine Learning methods, of large-scale protein-protein interaction and compound activity networks across a wide variety of species. A range of information such as kinetic activity, tissue expression, and subcellular localization and disease state attributes will be included in the resulting data model. Protein interactions are a fundamental component of biological processes. Many proteins are functional only in multimeric complexes, or require interaction partners to achieve their correct localisation or function. For this reason, the study of protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks has become an area of growing interest in computational biology. Through the use of Semantic Web technologies such as Resource Description Framework (RDF) and Web Ontology Language (OWL), interaction data is modelled to create a knowledge representation in which meaning is vested in the ontology rather than instances of data. Stochastic and computational intelligence methods are applied to this data to infer high coverage networks. Semantic inferencing is used to infer previously unknown and meaningful pathways. Major project components: - The BioMANTA Ontology:- An OWL DL ontology incorporating the PSI-MI Ontology, the NCBI Taxonomy, and elements of BioPax ontology and Gene Ontology (describing subcellular localisation). This allows us to re-use existing ontologies, thereby reducing overheads associated with knowledge acquisition in the ontology development process. We are able to integrate existing public data that contain annotation in these formats. - Data conversion & semantic protein integration:- A set of software components that convert protein-protein databases (DIP, MPact, IntAct, etc.) from PSI-MI XML to RDF compliant with the BioMANTA ontology. These software allow us to make these protein-protein interaction datasets (and more generally, any PSI-MI XML data) semantically available for querying and inference within BioMANTA. - A RDF triple store based on RDF Molecules and the MapReduce architecture:- A proof-of-concept RDF triple store using RDF molecules and Hadoop scale-out architectures. Regular RDF graphs are deconstructed into RDF molecules, which are distributed over distributed compute nodes in the MapReduce architecture, and are subsequently combined to form equivalent RDF graphs. Such an approach makes the distributed SPARQL querying and reasoning on RDF triple stores possible. - A quantitative framework to integrate networks extracted from independent data sources (gene expression, subcellular localization, and ortholog mapping):- The model is multi-layer, with a first layer based on Decision Trees where each Decision tree is built on each dataset independently. The tree nodes are cut using Shannon''s entropy (mutual information); the decision of these independent trees is integrated using logistic regression, and the parameters are optimised using maximum likelihood.
