Database that describes the families of structurally-related catalytic and carbohydrate-binding modules (or functional domains) of enzymes that degrade, modify, or create glycosidic bonds. This specialist database is dedicated to the display and analysis of genomic, structural and biochemical information on Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes (CAZymes). CAZy data are accessible either by browsing sequence-based families or by browsing the content of genomes in carbohydrate-active enzymes. New genomes are added regularly shortly after they appear in the daily releases of GenBank. New families are created based on published evidence for the activity of at least one member of the family and all families are regularly updated, both in content and in description. An original aspect of the CAZy database is its attempt to cover all carbohydrate-active enzymes across organisms and across subfields of glycosciences. One can search for CAZY Family pages using the Protein Accession (Genpept Accession, Uniprot Accession or PDB ID), Cazy family name or EC number. In addition, genomes can be searched using the NCBI TaxID. This search can be complemented by Google-based searches on the CAZy site.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 6, 2023. National Center for Biomedical Computing (NCBC) that develops new algorithms, opensource tools, computational infrastructure, and services for biomedical and behavioral researchers nationwide to promote the secure sharing and consuming of biomedical and behavioral resources (software, data, and computing systems) with iDASH collaborators. The center addresses fundamental challenges to research progress by providing a secure, privacypreserving environment in which researchers can analyze genomic, transcriptomic, clinical, behavioral, and social data relevant to health. Three driving biological projects in iDASH (Molecular Phenotyping of Kawasaki Disease, Post-Marketing Surveillance of Hematologic Medications, and Individualized Intervention to Enhance Physical Activity) span the molecular-individualpopulation spectrum, and they will motivate, inform, and support tool development. iDASH will collaborate with other NCBCs and will disseminate tools via annual workshops, presentations at major conferences, and scientific publications.

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).

http://code.google.com/p/seqtrace/
A software application for viewing and processing DNA sequencing chromatograms (trace files) that makes it easy to quickly generate high-quality finished sequences from a large number of trace files. SeqTrace can automatically identify, align, and compute consensus sequences from matching forward and reverse traces, filter low-quality base calls, and perform end trimming of finished sequences. The finished DNA sequences can then be exported to common sequence file formats, such as FASTA. SeqTrace also includes a full-featured trace file viewer and editor. You can view your sequencing chromatograms at a variety of scales and zoom levels, simultaneously view matching forward and reverse traces, edit the called bases, and export individual DNA sequences as well as forward/reverse alignments. SeqTrace supports popular trace file formats, including ABIF, SCF, and ZTR.

Specific short oligonucleotide sequences that enhance pre-mRNA splicing when present in exons, termed exonic splicing enhancers (ESEs), play important roles in constitutive and alternative splicing (ESE References). A hybrid computational/experimental method, RESCUE-ESE, was recently developed for identifying sequences with ESE activity. In this approach, specific hexanucleotide sequences are identified as candidate ESEs on the basis that they have both significantly higher frequency of occurrence in exons than in introns and also significantly higher frequency in exons with weak (non-consensus) splice sites than in exons with strong (consensus) splice sites. Representative hexamers from ten different classes of candidate ESEs, together with 6 or 7 bases of flanking sequence context on each side, were introduced into a weak (poorly spliced) exon in a splicing reporter construct. These reporter minigenes were then transfected into cultured cells, where they are transcribed and spliced, and the relative level of inclusion of the test exon was assayed by quantitative (radio-labeled) RT-PCR. Point mutants of these sequences were also analyzed to confirm the precise motifs responsible for ESE activity. The RESCUE-ESE approach identified 238 hexamers as candidate ESEs using a large database of human genes of known exon-intron structure containing over 30,000 nonredudant exons. In more recent analyses by Yeo et al., the RESCUE-ESE approach was utilized to predict hexamers as candidate ESEs in other vertebrate genes, namely, Fugu rubipes, Zebrafish and Mouse. This allows the identification of motifs that are conserved in vertebrates. This web server allows a sequence to be checked for presence of these candidate ESE hexamers.
