http://apps.cytoscape.org/apps/jepetto

A Cytoscape plugin that performs integrated gene set analysis using information from interaction, pathways and processes databases. The plugin integrates information from three separate web servers specializing in enrichment analysis, pathways expansion and topological matching. It uses the TopoGSA server to identify topological analogies between the user selected gene set and the known pathways and processes. TopoGSA finds the most similar biological mechanism using the topological features of the interaction network of a user selected gene set. It is also able to suggest genes related to the query gene set using two pathway analysis servers EnrichNet and PathExpand. Both these servers are using a different topological matching algorithms that extends the query gene set with genes from the pathway databases. This integration substantially simplifies the analysis of user gene sets and the interpretation of the results.

Online GEne Essentiality database containing genes that were tested experimentally for essentiality and their features; it also provides a set of tools to systematically explore and analyze these data. The main purpose of this project is to better understand gene essentiality by facilitating the comparisons of the differences and similarities between essential and non-essential genes. This is achieved by collecting not only experimentally tested essential and non-essential genes, but also associated gene features such as expression profiles, duplication status, conservation across species, evolutionary origins and involvement in embryonic development. We focus on large-scale experiments and complement our data with text-mining results. Genes are organized into data sets according to their sources. Genes with variable essentiality status across data sets are tagged as conditionally essential, highlighting the complex interplay between gene functions and environments. Linked tools allow the user to compare gene essentiality among different gene groups, or compare features of essential genes to non-essential genes, and visualize the results. Why is it different from existing databases? * we included both essential and non-essential genes so that we could better understand the gene essentiality by comparing the similarities and differences between the two gene sets; * we compiled a list of features for each gene, including whether they are duplicates or involved in development, the number of other homologous genes in the same genome, as well as their earliest expression stages during development. These features are keys to understand the essentiality of genes; * we also provide a set of tools to explore our data and visualize the results. For example, users can simply divide genes into two groups according to whether they are duplicates, calculate the proportion of essential genes (PE%) in each group and then visualize the results in a bar plot; or they can classify genes into multiple groups according to their earliest expression stages during evolution, compare the essentiality of genes that were expressed earlier with those were latter, and plot the results in a line chart.

http://db-mml.sjtu.edu.cn/ICEberg/

ICEberg is an integrated database that provides comprehensive information about integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) found in bacteria. ICEs are conjugative self-transmissible elements that can integrate into and excise from a host chromosome. An ICE contains three typical modules, integration and excision, conjugation, and regulation modules, that collectively promote vertical inheritance and periodic lateral gene flow. Many ICEs carry likely virulence determinants, antibiotic-resistant factors and/or genes coding for other beneficial traits. ICEberg offers a unique, highly organized, readily explorable archive of both predicted and experimentally supported ICE-relevant data. It currently contains details of 428 ICEs found in representatives of 124 bacterial species, and a collection of >400 directly related references. A broad range of similarity search, sequence alignment, genome context browser, phylogenetic and other functional analysis tools are readily accessible via ICEberg. ICEberg will facilitate efficient, multidisciplinary and innovative exploration of bacterial ICEs and be of particular interest to researchers in the broad fields of prokaryotic evolution, pathogenesis, biotechnology and metabolism. The ICEberg database will be maintained, updated and improved regularly to ensure its ongoing maximum utility to the research community.

A portal of online studies that encourage community participation to tackle the most challenging problems in neuropsychiatry, including attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. Our approach is to engage the community and try to recruit tens of thousands of people to spend an hour of their time on our site. You folks will provide data in both brain tests and questionnaires, as well as DNA, and in return, we will provide some information about your brain and behavior. You will also be entered to win amazon.com gift cards. While large collaborative efforts were made in genetics in order to discover the secrets of the human genome, there are still many mysteries about the behaviors that are seen in complex neuropsychiatric syndromes and the underlying biology that gives rise to these behaviors. We know that it will require studying tens of thousands of people to begin to answer these questions. Having you, the public, as a research partner is the only way to achieve that kind of investment. This site will try to reach that goal, by combining high-throughput behavioral assessment using questionnaires and game-like cognitive tests. You provide the data and then we will provide information and feedback about why you should help us achieve our goals and how it benefits everyone in the world. We believe that through this online study, we can better understand memory and attention behaviors in the general population and their genetic basis, which will in turn allow us to better characterize how these behaviors go awry in people who suffer from mental illness. In the end, we hope this will provide better, more personalized treatment options, and ultimately prevention of these widespread and extremely debilitating brain diseases. We will use the data we collect to try to identify the genetic basis for memory and impulse control, for example. If we can achieve this goal, maybe we can then do more targeted research to understand how the biology goes awry in people who have problems with cognition, including memory and impulse control, like those diagnosed with ADHD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, and Autism Spectrum Disorders. By participating in our research, you can learn about mental illness and health and help researchers tackle these complex problems. We can''t do it without your help.

Schizophrenia related portal that aims to solve the mystery of genetic predisposition to psychosis, develop new methods for early diagnosis and prevention, and discover new treatments that will cure people suffering from it. Our objectives are to fully characterize: # neurobiological mechanisms related to susceptibility genes for schizophrenia and related clinical disorders; # genetic variation in aspects of cognition and emotionality associated with schizophrenia; and # small molecular targets for novel therapies. A unique feature of this Program is that its diverse scientific resources will be focused on a highly specific scientific agenda, that is to acquire the critical biological information about the susceptibility genes associated with schizophrenia and related illnesses. Our mission and goal, to understand the basic mechanisms of serious mental illness, has again guided us into new areas of research and to new insights. We have found evidence of new genes implicated in the cause of schizophrenia and involved in brain functions related to cognition and emotion and we have begun to explore how genes interact with each other and with the environment to individualize risk for these conditions. We are working now with over 20 genes related to schizophrenia. One of the key developments in our research over the past year has been the emergence of some targets for the development of novel therapeutics. We have discovered a new schizophrenia susceptibility gene, KCNH2, which represents the first clear target for the development of novel treatments. Just in this past year, for example, we published the first extensive statistical analysis of how schizophrenia genes may vary in their risk effects based on different genetic background (Nicodemus et al Hum Gen 2006), the first studies of schizophrenia genes interacting in effecting gene expression in brain (Lipska et al Hum Mol Genetics 2006a, Lipska et al Hum Mol Gen 2006 b); the first evidence that the mechanism of genetic association of NRG1 with schizophrenia involves a novel isoform of the gene in human brain (Law et al PNAS 2006), and the first evidence that MAOA may be linked to mood and impulse control because it effects critical mood regulatory neural networks (Meyer-Lindenberg et al PNAS 2006).
