An online database of curated cancer stem cell (CSC) experiments coupled to the Galaxy analytical framework. Driven by a need to improve our understanding of molecular processes that are common and unique across cancer stem cells (CSCs), the SCDE allows users to consistently describe, share and compare CSC data at the gene and pathway level. The initial focus has been on carefully curating tissue and cancer stem cell-related experiments from blood, intestine and brain to create a high quality resource containing 53 public studies and 1098 assays. The experimental information is captured and stored in the multi-omics Investigation/Study/Assay (ISA-Tab) format and can be queried in the data repository. A linked Galaxy framework provides a comprehensive, flexible environment populated with novel tools for gene list comparisons against molecular signatures in GeneSigDB and MSigDB, curated experiments in the SCDE and pathways in WikiPathways. Investigation/Study/Assay (ISA) infrastructure is the first general-purpose format and freely available desktop software suite targeted to experimentalists, curators and developers and that: * assists in the reporting and local management of experimental metadata (i.e. sample characteristics, technology and measurement types, sample-to-data relationships) from studies employing one or a combination of technologies; * empowers users to uptake community-defined minimum information checklists and ontologies, where required; * formats studies for submission to a growing number of international public repositories endorsing the tools, currently ENA (genomics), PRIDE (proteomics) and ArrayExpress (transcriptomics). Galaxy allows you to do analyses you cannot do anywhere else without the need to install or download anything. You can analyze multiple alignments, compare genomic annotations, profile metagenomic samples and much much more. Best of all, Galaxy''''s history system provides a complete analyses record that can be shared. Every history is an analysis workflow, which can be used to reproduce the entire experiment. The code for this Galaxy instance is available for download from BitBucket.

Integrated public bioinformatics resource to support genomic, proteomic and systems biology research and scientific studies. Provides databases and protein sequence analysis tools to scientific community, including Protein Sequence Database which grew out from the Atlas of Protein Sequence and Structure. Conducts research in biomedical text mining and ontology, computational systems biology, and bioinformatics cyberinfrastructure. In 2002 PIR, along with its international partners, EBI (European Bioinformatics Institute) and SIB (Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics), were awarded a grant from NIH to create UniProt, a single worldwide database of protein sequence and function, by unifying the PIR-PSD, Swiss-Prot, and TrEMBL databases. Currently, PIR major activities include: i) UniProt (Universal Protein Resource) development, ii) iProClass protein data integration and ID mapping, iii) PRO protein ontology, and iv) iProLINK protein literature mining and ontology development. The FTP site provides free download for iProClass, PIRSF, and PRO.

Curated, open-source, integrated data resource for comparative functional genomics in crops and model plant species to facilitate the study of cross-species comparisons using information generated from projects supported by public funds. It currently hosts annotated whole genomes in over two dozen plant species and partial assemblies for almost a dozen wild rice species in the Ensembl browser, genetic and physical maps with genes, ESTs and QTLs locations, genetic diversity data sets, structure-function analysis of proteins, plant pathways databases (BioCyc and Plant Reactome platforms), and descriptions of phenotypic traits and mutations. The web-based displays for phenotypes include the Genes and Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) modules. Sequence based relationships are displayed in the Genomes module using the genome browser adapted from Ensembl, in the Maps module using the comparative map viewer (CMap) from GMOD, and in the Proteins module displays. BLAST is used to search for similar sequences. Literature supporting all the above data is organized in the Literature database. In addition, Gramene now hosts a variety of web services including a Distributed Annotation Server (DAS), BLAST and a public MySQL database. Twice a year, Gramene releases a major build of the database and makes interim releases to correct errors or to make important updates to software and/or data. Additionally you can access Gramene through an FTP site.

Database for sequences of the human major histocompatibility complex (HLA) and includes the official sequences for the WHO Nomenclature Committee For Factors of the HLA System. It currently contains 9,310 allele sequences (2013) along with detailed information concerning the material from which the sequence was derived and data on the validation of the sequences. It is established procedure for authors to submit the sequences directly to the IMGT/HLA Database for checking and assignment of an official name prior to publication, this avoids the problems associated with renaming published sequences and the confusion of multiple names for the same sequence. The need for reasonably rapid publication of new HLA allele sequences has necessitated an annual meeting of the WHO Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System. Additionally they now publish monthly HLA nomenclature updates both in journals and online to provide quick and easy access to new sequence information. The IMGT/HLA Database is part of the international ImMunoGeneTics project. In collaboration with the Imperial Cancer Research Fund (ICRF) and European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) they have developed an Oracle database to house the HLA sequences in such a way as to allow users to present complex queries about the sequence, sequence features, references, contacts and allele designations to the database via a graphical user interface over the web. The IMGT/HLA Database Submission Tool allows direct submission of sequences to the WHO HLA Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System. The IMGT/HLA Database provides an FTP site for the retrieval of sequences in a number of pre-formatted files.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. A multi-country collaboration among scientists and funding agencies to develop a public resource where genetic similarities and differences in human beings are identified and catalogued. Using this information, researchers will be able to find genes that affect health, disease, and individual responses to medications and environmental factors. All of the information generated by the Project will be released into the public domain. Their goal is to compare the genetic sequences of different individuals to identify chromosomal regions where genetic variants are shared. Public and private organizations in six countries are participating in the International HapMap Project. Data generated by the Project can be downloaded with minimal constraints. HapMap project related data, software, and documentation include: bulk data on genotypes, frequencies, LD data, phasing data, allocated SNPs, recombination rates and hotspots, SNP assays, Perlegen amplicons, raw data, inferred genotypes, and mitochondrial and chrY haplogroups; Generic Genome Browser software; protocols and information on assay design, genotyping and other protocols used in the project; and documentation of samples/individuals and the XML format used in the project.
