SLIDE Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
SLIDE (RRID:SCR_005137) | SLIDE | software resource | Software package that takes exon boundaries and RNA-Seq data as input to discern the set of mRNA isoforms that are most likely to present in an RNA-Seq sample. It is based on a linear model with a design matrix that models the sampling probability of RNA-Seq reads from different mRNA isoforms. To tackle the model unidentifiability issue, SLIDE uses a modified Lasso procedure for parameter estimation. Compared with deterministic isoform assembly algorithms (e.g., Cufflinks), SLIDE considers the stochastic aspects of RNA-Seq reads in exons from different isoforms and thus has increased power in detecting more novel isoforms. Another advantage of SLIDE is its flexibility of incorporating other transcriptomic data such as RACE, CAGE, and EST into its model to further increase isoform discovery accuracy. SLIDE can also work downstream of other RNA-Seq assembly algorithms to integrate newly discovered genes and exons. Besides isoform discovery, SLIDE sequentially uses the same linear model to estimate the abundance of discovered isoforms. |

RetroSeq Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
RetroSeq (RRID:SCR_005133) | RetroSeq | software resource | A tool for discovery and genotyping of transposable element variants (TEVs) (also known as mobile element insertions) from next-gen sequencing reads aligned to a reference genome in BAM format. The goal is to call TEVs that are not present in the reference genome but present in the sample that has been sequenced. It should be noted that RetroSeq can be used to locate any class of viral insertion in any species where whole-genome sequencing data with a suitable reference genome is available. RetroSeq is a two phase process, the first being the read pair discovery phase where discorandant mate pairs are detected and assigned to a TE class (Alu, SINE, LINE, etc.) by using either the annotated TE elements in the reference and/or aligned with Exonerate to the supplied library of viral sequences. | mobile element insertion, next-gen sequencing, bam, transposable element, genome, sequence |

RLS Foundation (RRID:SCR_005144) | RLS Foundation | data or information resource, disease-related portal, funding resource, portal, topical portal | Non-profit organization providing the latest information about Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Its goals are to increase awareness, improve treatments, and through research, find a cure for RLS, a condition which severely affects the lives of millions of individuals. By educating healthcare providers about RLS symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment, the RLS Foundation helps patients receive the quality care they both need and deserve. In recent years the Foundation has provided information to healthcare providers at many exhibit meetings, including the American Academy of Neurology, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. The Foundation continually strives to be the most reputable source of information on RLS. Their renowned Medical Advisory Board, composed of leading RLS experts from all over the world, has written several publications on the diagnosis and treatment of RLS. These include our comprehensive RLS Medical Bulletin, their patient brochure, and their brochures on special topics including concerns for surgery, depression, pregnancy, and children. The Foundation has taken giant strides to further RLS research, funding grants for 27 research projects. Among the most distinguished research projects the Foundation has put its resources behind is the ongoing Stanford Epidemiology Project. Although it is still underway, the Foundation recognizes that the highly anticipated results of the Stanford Epidemiology Project, including the creation of a world standard questionnaire used to accurately diagnose RLS, could be spectacular. Eventually this questionnaire may help researchers understand the health consequences of RLS and identify other conditions and diseases that are associated with or exacerbated by RLS. In addition, the RLS Foundation helped fund a study led by Dr. David Rye and deCODE Genetics in Iceland which recently announced the discovery of a gene for RLS. | restless legs syndrome | is parent organization of: RLS Foundation Brain Bank | Restless Legs Syndrome | nlx_144148 | SCR_005144 | Restless Legs Syndrome Foundation | 2026-09-12 12:56:21 | 2 | |||||||
