http://www.epilepsygenes.org/page/show/homepage

The Epilepsy Genetic Association Database (epiGAD) is an online repository of data relating to genetic association studies in the field of epilepsy. It summarizes the results of both published and unpublished studies, and is intended as a tool for researchers in the field to keep abreast of recent studies, providing a bird''s eye view of this research area. The goal of epiGAD is to collate all association studies in epilepsy in order to help researchers in this area identify all the available gene-disease associations. Finally, by including unpublished studies, it hopes to reduce the problem of publication bias and provide more accurate data for future meta-analyses. It is also hoped that epiGAD will foster collaboration between the different epilepsy genetics groups around the world, and faciliate formation of a network of investigators in epilepsy genetics. There are 4 databases within epiGAD: - the susceptibility genes database - the epilepsy pharmacogenetics database - the meta-analysis database - the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) database The susceptibility genes database compiles all studies related to putative epilepsy susceptibility genes (eg. interleukin-1-beta in TLE), while the pharmacogenetics studies in epilepsy (eg. ABCB1 studies) are stored in ''phamacogenetics''. The meta-analysis database compiles all existing published epilepsy genetic meta-analyses, whether for susceptibility genes, or pharmacogenetics. The GWAS database is currently empty, but will be filled once GWAS are published. Sponsors: The epiGAD website is supported by the ILAE Genetics Commission.

http://funspec.med.utoronto.ca/

FunSpec is a web-based tool for statistical evaluation of groups of genes and proteins (e.g. co-regulated genes, protein complexes, genetic interactors) with respect to existing annotations, including GO terms. FunSpec (an acronym for Functional Specification) inputs a list of yeast gene names, and outputs a summary of functional classes, cellular localizations, protein complexes, etc. that are enriched in the list. The classes and categories evaluated were downloaded from the MIPS Database and the GO Database . In addition, many published datasets have been compiled to evaluate enrichment against. Hypertext links to the publications are given. The p-values, calculated using the hypergeometric distribution, represent the probability that the intersection of given list with any given functional category occurs by chance. The Bonferroni-correction divides the p-value threshold, that would be deemed significant for an individual test, by the number of tests conducted and thus accounts for spurious significance due to multiple testing over the categories of a database. After the Bonferroni correction, only those categories are displayed for which the chance probability of enrichment is lower than: p-value/#CD where #CD is the number of categories in the selected database. Without the Bonferroni Correction, all categories are displayed for which the same probability of enrichment is lower than: p-value threshold in an individual test Note that many genes are contained in many categories, especially in the MIPS database (which are hierarchical) and that this can create biases for which FunSpec currently makes no compensation. Also the databases are treated as independent from one another, which is really not the case, and each is searched seperately, which may not be optimal for statistical calculations. Nonetheless, we find it useful for sifting through the results of clustering analysis, TAP pulldowns, etc. Platform: Online tool

http://www.broadinstitute.org/annotation/tetraodon/

This database have been funded by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) to produce shotgun sequence of the Tetraodon nigriviridis genome. The strategy involves Whole Genome Shotgun (WGS) sequencing, in which sequence from the entire genome is generated. Whole genome shotgun libraries were prepared from Tetraodon genomic DNA obtained from the laboratory of Jean Weissenbach at Genoscope. Additional sequence data of approximately 2.5X coverage of Tetraodon has also been generated by Genoscope in plasmid and BAC end reads. Broad and Genoscope intend to pool their data and generate whole genome assemblies. Tetraodon nigroviridis is a freshwater pufferfish of the order Tetraodontiformes and lives in the rivers and estuaries of Indonesia, Malaysia and India. This species is 20-30 million years distant from Fugu rubripes, a marine pufferfish from the same family. The gene repertoire of T. nigroviridis is very similar to that of other vertebrates. However, its relatively small genome of 385 Mb is eight times more compact than that of human, mostly because intergenic and intronic sequences are reduced in size compared to other vertebrate genomes. These genome characteristics along with the large evolutionary distance between bony fish and mammals make Tetraodon a compact vertebrate reference genome - a powerful tool for comparative genetics and for quick and reliable identification of human genes.

An experiment in web-database access to large multi-dimensional data sets using a standardized experimental platform to determine if the larger scientific community can be given simple, intuitive, and user-friendly web-based access to large microarray data sets. All data in PEPR is also available via NCBI GEO. The structure and goals of PEPR differ from other mRNA expression profiling databases in a number of important ways. * The experimental platform in PEPR is standardized, and is an Affymetrix - only database. All microarrays available in the PEPR web database should ascribe to quality control and standard operating procedures. A recent publication has described the QC/SOP criteria utilized in PEPR profiles ( The Tumor Analysis Best Practices Working Group 2004 ). * PEPR permits gene-based queries of large Affymetrix array data sets without any specialized software. For example, a number of large time series projects are available within PEPR, containing 40-60 microarrays, yet these can be simply queried via a dynamic web interface with no prior knowledge of microarray data analysis. * Projects in PEPR originate from scientists world-wide, but all data has been generated by the Research Center for Genetic Medicine, Children''''s National Medical Center, Washington DC. Future developments of PEPR will allow remote entry of Affymetrix data ascribing to the same QC/SOP protocols. They have previously described an initial implementation of PEPR, and a dynamic web-queried time series graphical interface ( Chen et al. 2004 ). A publication showing the utility of PEPR for pharmacodynamic data has recently been published ( Almon et al. 2003 ).

http://snpselector.duhs.duke.edu/hqsnp36.html

This is the HQSNP DB (high-quality SNP database) developed by CHG bioinformatics group. The high-quality SNP is defined as a SNP having allele frequency or genotyping data. The majority of the HQSNPs come from HapMap, others come from JSNP (Japanese SNP database), TSC (The SNP Consortium), Affymetrix 120K SNP, and Perlegen SNP. There are four kinds of SNP search you can do: * Get SNPs by dbSNP rs#: Choose this search if you have already selected a list of SNPs and you just want to get the SNP information. The program will generate a Excel file containing the SNP flanking sequence, variation, quality, function, etc. In the Excel file, there are 10 highlighted fields. You can send only those highlighted information to Illumina to get SNP pre-score. (The same fields are presented in other types of searches as well.) * Get gene SNPs by gene names: Choose this search if you have a list of gene names and you want to get the SNP information in these genes. The gene name can be official gene symbol, Ensembl gene ID, RefSeq accession ID, LocusLink number, etc. * Get gene SNPs by genome regions: Choose this search if you have a list of genome regions and you want to get all gene SNP information in these regions. The software will find all the Ensembl genes in the regions and find SNPs associated to each Ensembl gene. * Get genome scan SNPs by genome regions: Choose this search if you have a list of genome regions and you want to get evenly spaced SNPs in these regions. A SNP selection tool (SNPselector) was built upon HQSNP. It took snp ID list, gene name list, or genome region list as input and searched SNPs for genome scan or gene assoctiation study. It could take an optional ABI SNP file (exported from ABI SNP search web page) as input for checking whether the candidate SNP is available from ABI. It could also take an optional Illumina SNP pre-score file as input to select SNP for Illumina SNP assay. It generated results sorted by tag SNP in LD block, SNP quality, SNP function, SNP regulatory potential, and SNP mutation risk. SNPselector is now retired from public use (as of September 30, 2010).

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 human, chimpanzee, mouse, and rat proteases and protease inhibitors, as well as as the growing number of hereditary diseases caused by mutations in protease genes. Analysis of the human and mouse genomes has allowed us to annotate 581 human, 580 chimpanzee, 667 mouse, and 655 rat protease genes. Proteases are classified in five different classes according to their mechanism of catalysis. Proteases are a diverse and important group of enzymes representing >2% of the human, chimpanzee, mouse and rat genomes. This group of enzymes is implicated in numerous physiological processes. The importance of proteases is illustrated by the existence of 99 different hereditary diseases due to mutations in protease genes. Furthermore, proteases have been implicated in multiple human pathologies, including vascular diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, neurodegenerative processes, and cancer. During the last ten years, our laboratory has identified and characterized more than 60 human protease genes. Due to the importance of proteolytic enzymes in human physiology and pathology, we have recently introduced the concept of Degradome, as the complete repertoire of proteases expressed by a tissue or organism. Thanks to the recent completion of the human, chimpanzee, mouse, and rat genome sequencing projects, we were able to analyze and compare for the first time the complete protease repertoire in those mammalian organisms, as well as the complement of protease inhibitor genes. This webpage also contains the Supplementary Material of Human and mouse proteases: a comparative genomic approach Nat Rev Genet (2003) 4: 544-558, Genome sequence of the brown Norway rat yields insights into mammalian evolution Nature (2004) 428: 493-521, A genomic analysis of rat proteases and protease inhibitors Genome Res.
