THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVCE, documented September 2, 2016. Web-based and standalone application that returns a wide range of functional genomic data for a given set of study genes and provides rank scores for over-representation of particular functions or categories in the data. It uses the hypergeometric test statistic which returns statistically correct results for samples of all sizes and is the #2 fastest GO tool available (Khatri and Draghici, 2005). GeneMerge can be used with any discrete, locus-based annotation data, including, literature references, genetic interactions, mutant phenotypes as well as traditional Gene Ontology queries. GeneMerge is particularly useful for the analysis of microarray data and other large biological datasets. The big advantage of GeneMerge over other similar programs is that you are not limited to analyzing your data from the perspective of a pre-packaged set of gene-association data. You can download or create gene-association files to analyze your data from an unlimited number of perspectives. Platform: Online tool, Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

An integrated resource for genomics and bioinformatics in vision research including expressed sequence tag (EST) data and sequence-verified cDNA clones for multiple eye tissues of several species, web-based access to human eye-specific SAGE data through EyeSAGE, and comprehensive, annotated databases of known human eye disease genes and candidate disease gene loci. All expression- and disease-related data are integrated in EyeBrowse, an eye-centric genome browser. NEIBank provides a comprehensive overview of current knowledge of the transcriptional repertoires of eye tissues and their relation to pathology. The data can be interrogated in several ways. Specific gene names can be entered into the search window. Alternatively, regions of the genome can be displayed. For example, entering two STS markers separated by a semicolon (e.g. RH18061;RH80175) allows the display of the entire chromosomal region associated with the mapping of a specific disease locus. ESTs for each tissue can then be displayed to help in the selection of candidate genes. In addition, sequences can be entered into a BLAST search and rapidly aligned on the genome, again showing eye derived ESTs for the same region. To see the same region at the full UCSC site, cut and paste the location from the position window of the genome browser. EyeBrowse includes a custom track display SAGE data for human eye tissues derived from the EyeSAGE project. The track shows the normalized sum of SAGE tag counts from all published eye-related SAGE datasets centered on the position of each identifiable Unigene cluster. This indicates relative activity of each gene locus in eye. Clicking on the vertical count bar for a particular location will bring up a display listing gene details and linking to specific SAGE counts for each eye SAGE library and comparisons with normalized sums for neural and non-neural tissues. To view or alter settings for the EyeSAGE track on EyeBrowse, click on the vertical gray bar at the left of the display. Other custom tracks display known eye disease genes and mapped intervals for candidate loci for retinal disease, cataract, myopia and cornea disease. These link back to further information at NEIBank.

Database of functional annotation for alternatively spliced genes. It uses a gene-modeling algorithm that combines the genome-based expressed sequence tag (EST) clustering and graph-theoretic transcript assembly procedures. It contains genome, mRNA, and EST sequence data, as well as a genome browser application. Organisms included in the database are human, dog, chicken, fruit fly, mouse, rhesus, rat, worm, and zebrafish. Annotation is provided for the whole transcriptome, not just the alternatively spliced genes. Several viewers and applications are provided that are useful for the analysis of the transcript structure and gene expression. The summary viewer shows the gene summary and the essence of other annotation programs. The genome browser and the transcript viewer are available for comparing the gene structure of splice variants. Changes in the functional domains by alternative splicing can be seen at a glance in the transcript viewer. Two unique ways of analyzing gene expression is also provided. The SAGE tags deduced from the assembled transcripts are used to delineate quantitative expression patterns from SAGE libraries available publicly. The cDNA libraries of EST sequences in each cluster are used to infer qualitative expression patterns.

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.

ZCre is a consortium of researchers who have a shared interest in developing Cre/lox based tools for use in the zebrafish model organism. ZCre plans to generate 15 or more tissue specific ERT2CreERT2 driver lines to be expressed in either differentiated cell types or precursor/stem cells, as well as 20 or more lines based upon multilox technology. One set of multilox transgenes will allow long-term permanent labelling of individual cells for lineage tracing and other applications. Another set will allow perturbation of single pathways within individual cells (PathM lines). In order to make these lines ZCre has developed a three-way cloning system using Gateway technology (Invitrogen). Once constructs are made they will be deposited at Addgene.org. Transgenic lines will be available from ZCre or from regional stock centers as requested.

Portal providing identifiers for Antibodies, Model Organisms, and Tools (software, databases, services) created in support of the Resource Identification Initiative, which aims to promote research resource identification, discovery, and reuse. The portal offers a central location for obtaining and exploring Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs) - persistent and unique identifiers for referencing a research resource. A critical goal of the RII is the widespread adoption of RRIDs to cite resources in the biomedical literature and other places that reference their generation or use. RRIDs use established community identifiers where they exist, and are cross-referenced in their system where more than one identifier exists for a single resource.
