THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented November 4, 2015. Web application based on the TM4 Microarray Software Suite to provide a means of normalization and analysis of microarray data. Users can upload data in the form of Affymetrix CEL files, and define an analysis pipeline by selecting several intuitive options. It performs data normalization (eg RMA), basic statistical analysis (eg t-test, ANOVA), and analysis of annotation using gene classification (eg Gene Ontology term assignment). The analysis are performed without user intervention and the results are presented in a web-based summary that allows data to be downloaded in a variety of formats compatible with further directed analysis.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23,2022. ATGC stands for Alignable Tight Genomic Cluster, which is cluster of closely related prokaryotic genomes. ATGC is the principal notion of this web resource. The purpose of this web resource is to prepare ATGC-derived data sets for a variety of research projects in functional and evolutionary genomics. Unique features of ATGC include: * Reliable identification of orthologs (high degree of similarity between the genomes in the set allow an extensive use of synteny in ortholog identification); * Fine granularity of protein classification (in comparisons of more distant genomes, proteins belonging to families of paralogs are often lumped into a singlegroup; under the ATGC approach, comparison of genomic sequences from highly similar genomes allows one to track each set of orthologs separately); * Relative rarity of changes of any kind (in sequence, genome organization and gene content) allows the use of parsimony-related methods of analysis.

This web-server takes a user-supplied sequence of a DNA-binding protein and predicts residue positions involved in interactions with DNA. Prediction can be performed using a profile of evolutionary conservation of the input sequence automatically generated by the web-server or the input sequence alone. Three prediction methods are run for each input sequence and consensus prediction is generated.

Web server based on the Enhancer Identification (EI) method, to determine the chromosomal location and functional characteristics of distant regulatory elements (REs) in higher eukaryotic genomes. The server uses gene co-expression data, comparative genomics, and combinatorics of transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) to find TFBS-association signatures that can be used for discriminating specific regulatory functions. DiRE's unique feature is the detection of REs outside of proximal promoter regions, as it takes advantage of the full gene locus to conduct the search. DiRE can predict common REs for any set of input genes for which the user has prior knowledge of co-expression, co-function, or other biologically meaningful grouping. The server predicts function-specific REs consisting of clusters of specifically-associated TFBSs, and it also scores the association of individual TFs with the biological function shared by the group of input genes. Its integration with the Array2BIO server allows users to start their analysis with raw microarray expression data.

Database containing descriptions of biological source materials used in experimental assays. Sources include: GenBank, Sequence Read Archive (SRA), Coriell, ATCC. Submissions are supported by a web-based Submission Portal that guides users through a series of forms for input of rich metadata describing their samples. As the capacity and complexity of biological data sets expands, databases face new challenges in ensuring that the information is adequately organized and described. The NCBI BioSample database is being developed to help address the challenges by providing the means by which data generators can organize and describe a broad range of sample types, and link to corresponding sets of experimental data in archival databases.

Database of key terminology, classification and coding standards, and associated resources to promote creation of more effective and interoperable biomedical information systems and services, including electronic health records. This set of files and software brings together many health and biomedical vocabularies and standards to enable interoperability between computer systems. Users can use the UMLS to enhance or develop applications, such as electronic health records, classification tools, dictionaries and language translators. The UMLS has three tools, which we call the Knowledge Sources: * Metathesaurus: Terms and codes from many vocabularies, including CPT, ICD-10-CM, LOINC, MeSH, RxNorm, and SNOMED CT * Semantic Network: Broad categories (semantic types) and their relationships (semantic relations) * SPECIALIST Lexicon and Lexical Tools: Natural language processing tools We use the Semantic Network and Lexical Tools to produce the Metathesaurus. Metathesaurus production involves: * Processing the terms and codes using the Lexical Tools * Grouping synonymous terms into concepts * Categorizing concepts by semantic types from the Semantic Network * Incorporating relationships and attributes provided by vocabularies * Releasing the data in a common format Although we integrate these tools for Metathesaurus production, you can access them separately or in any combination according to your needs. The UMLS Terminology Services (UTS) provides three ways to access the UMLS: Web Browsers, Local Installation, and Web Services APIs.
