DNA samples and cell lines from fifteen populations, including the samples used for the International HapMap Project, the HapMap 3 Project and the 1000 Genomes Project (except for the CEPH samples). All of the samples were contributed with consent to broad data release and to their use in many future studies, including for extensive genotyping and sequencing, gene expression and proteomics studies, and all other types of genetic variation research. NHGRI led the contribution of the NIH to the International HapMap Project, which developed a haplotype map of the human genome. This haplotype map, called the HapMap is a publicly available tool that allows researchers to find genes and genetic variations that affect health and disease. The samples from four populations used to develop the HapMap were initially housed in the Human Genetic Cell Repository of the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS). Except for the Utah CEPH samples that were in the NIGMS Repository before the initiation of the HapMap Project and remain there, the NHGRI Repository now houses all of the HapMap samples. The NHGRI repository also houses the extended set of HapMap samples, which includes additional samples from the HapMap populations and samples from seven additional populations. All of the samples were collected with extensive community engagement, including discussions with members of the donor communities about the ethical and social implications of human genetic variation research. These samples were studied as part of the HapMap 3 Project. The NHGRI repository also houses the samples for the International 1000 Genomes Project. This Project is lightly sequencing genome-wide 2500 samples from 27 populations. This project aims to provide a detailed map of human genetic variation, including common and rare SNPs and structural variants. This map will allow more precise localization of genomic regions that contribute to health and disease. The 1000 Genomes Project includes many of the samples from the HapMap and extended set of HapMap samples, as well as samples being collected from additional populations. Currently, samples from five additional populations are available; the others will become available during 2011 and 2012. No identifying or phenotypic information is available for the samples. Donors gave broad consent for use of the samples, including for genotyping, sequencing, and cellular phenotype studies. Samples collected from other populations for the study of human genetic variation may be added to the collection in the future. The NHGRI Repository distributes high quality lymphoblastoid cell lines and DNA from the samples to researchers. DNA is provided in plates or panels of 70 to 100 samples or as individual samples. Cell cultures and DNA samples are distributed only to qualified professional persons who are associated with recognized research, medical, educational, or industrial organizations engaged in health-related research or health delivery.

The Short Time-series Expression Miner (STEM) is a Java program for clustering, comparing, and visualizing short time series gene expression data from microarray experiments (~8 time points or fewer). STEM allows researchers to identify significant temporal expression profiles and the genes associated with these profiles and to compare the behavior of these genes across multiple conditions. STEM is fully integrated with the Gene Ontology (GO) database supporting GO category gene enrichment analyses for sets of genes having the same temporal expression pattern. STEM also supports the ability to easily determine and visualize the behavior of genes belonging to a given GO category or user defined gene set, identifying which temporal expression profiles were enriched for these genes. (Note: While STEM is designed primarily to analyze data from short time course experiments it can be used to analyze data from any small set of experiments which can naturally be ordered sequentially including dose response experiments.) Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

NIH initiative project to provide full-length open reading frame (FL-ORF) clones for human, mouse, and rat genes, cow. MGC cDNA clones were obtained by screening of cDNA libraries, by transcript-specific RT-PCR cloning, and by DNA synthesis of cDNA inserts. All MGC sequences are deposited in GenBank and clones can be purchased from distributors of IMAGE consortium. With conclusion of MGC project in March 2009, GenBank records of MGC sequences will be frozen, without further updates. Since definition of what constitutes full-length coding region for some of genes and transcripts for which they have MGC clones will likely change in future, users planning to order MGC clones will need to monitor for these changes. Users can make use of genome browsers and gene-specific databases, such as the UCSC Genome browser, NCBI's Map Viewer, and Entrez Gene, to view relevant regions of genome (browsers) or gene-related information (Entrez Gene).

Human Genome Epidemiology Network, or HuGENet, is a global collaboration of individuals and organizations committed to the assessment of the impact of human genome variation on population health and how genetic information can be used to improve health and prevent disease. Its goals include: establishing an information exchange that promotes global collaboration in developing peer-reviewed information on the relationship between human genomic variation and health and on the quality of genetic tests for screening and prevention; providing training and technical assistance to researchers and practitioners interested in assessing the role of human genomic variation on population health and how such information can be used in practice; developing an updated and accessible knowledge base on the World Wide Web; and promoting the use of this knowledge base by health care providers, researchers, industry, government, and the public for making decisions involving the use of genetic information for disease prevention and health promotion. HuGENet collaborators come from multiple disciplines such as epidemiology, genetics, clinical medicine, policy, public health, education, and biomedical sciences. Currently, there are 4 HuGENet Coordinating Centers for the implementation of HuGENet activities: CDC''s Office of Public Health Genomics, Atlanta, Georgia; HuGENet UK Coordinating Center, Cambridge, UK; University of Ioannina, Greece; University of Ottawa , Ottawa, Canada. HuGENet includes: HuGE e-Journal Club: The HuGE e-Journal Club is an electronic discussion forum where new human genome epidemiologic (HuGE) findings, published in the scientific literature in the CDC''s Office of Public Health Genomics Weekly Update, will be abstracted, summarized, presented, and discussed via a newly created HuGENet listserv. HuGE Reviews: A HuGE Review identifies human genetic variations at one or more loci, and describes what is known about the frequency of these variants in different populations, identifies diseases that these variants are associated with and summarizes the magnitude of risks and associated risk factors, and evaluates associated genetic tests. Reviews point to gaps in existing epidemiologic and clinical knowledge, thus stimulating further research in these areas. HuGE Fact Sheets: HuGE Fact Sheets summarize information about a particular gene, its variants, and associated diseases. HuGE Case Studies: An on-line presentation designed to sharpen your epidemiological skills and enhance your knowledge on genomic variation and human diseases. Its purpose is to train health professionals in the practical application of human genome epidemiology (HuGE), which translates gene discoveries to disease prevention by integrating population-based data on gene-disease relationships and interventions. Students will acquire conceptual and practical tools for critically evaluating the growing scientific literature in specific disease areas. HUGENet Publications: Articles related to the HuGENet movement written by our HuGENet collaborators. HuGE Navigator: An integrated, searchable knowledge base of genetic associations and human genome epidemiology, including information on population prevalence of genetic variants, gene-disease associations, gene-gene and gene- environment interactions, and evaluation of genetic tests. HuGE Workshops: HuGENet has sponsored meetings and workshops with national and international partners since 2001. Available are detailed summaries, agendas or the ability to download speaker slides. HuGE Book: Human Genome Epidemiology: A Scientific Foundation for Using Genetic Information to Improve Health and Prevent Disease. (The findings and conclusions in this book are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of the funding agency.) HuGENet Collaborators: HuGENet is interested in establishing collaborations with individuals and organizations working on population based research involving genetic information. HuGE Funding: Funding opportunities for specific population-based genetic epidemiology research projects are available. Research initiatives whose aims include assessing the prevalence of human genetic variation, the association between genetic variants and human diseases, the measurement of gene-gene or gene-environment interaction, and the evaluation of genetic tests for screening and prevention are compiled to create a posted listing.
