3D DTI anatomical rat brain atlases have been created by the UNC- Chapel Hill Department of Psychiatry and the CAMID research collaboration. There are three age groups, postnatal day 5, postnatal day 14, and postnatal day 72. The subjects were Sprague-Dawley rats that were controls in a study on cocaine abuse and development. The P5 and P14 templates were made from scans of twenty rats each (ten female, ten male); the P72, from six females. The individual cases have been resampled to isotropic resolution, manually skull-stripped, and deformably registered via an unbiased atlas building method to create a template for each age group. Each template was then manually segmented using itk-SNAP software. Each atlas is made up of 3 files, a template image, a segmentation, and a label file.

A database of conserved sequence elements, identified by a systematic genomic sequence comparison between a set of human genes involved in the pathogenesis of genetic disorders and their murine counterparts. Human and mouse genomic sequences were compared by BLASTZ. Sequences longer than 100 and with identity better than 70 were selected as CSTs and imported into the database. CSTs are extensively annotated with respect to exon/intron structure and other biological parameters. CST counterparts in other species were identified by using BLAST to scan genomes from other species, and selecting on the basis of homology and co-linearity. The database can be accessed by gene, chromosomal location, graphic browser, DNA features, and coding regions.

Database for conserved sequence motifs identified by genome scale motif discovery, similarity, clustering, co-occurrence and coexpression calculations. Sequence inputs include low-coverage genome sequence data and ENCODE data. The database offers information on atomic motifs, motif groups and patterns. In promoter-based cisRED databases, sequence search regions for motif discovery extend from 1.5 Kb upstream to 200b downstream of a transcription start site, net of most types of repeats and of coding exons. Many transcription factor binding sites are located in such regions. For each target gene's search region, a base set of probabilistic ab initio discovery tools is used, in parallel, to find over-represented atomic motifs. Discovery methods use comparative genomics with over 40 vertebrate input genomes. In ChIP-seq-based cisRED databases, sequence search regions for motif discovery correspond to significant peaks that represent genome-wide sites of protein-DNA binding. Because such peaks occur in a wide range of genic and intergenic locations, ChIP-seq and promoter-based databases are complementary. Currently, motif discovery for ChIP-seq data uses scan-based approaches that make more explicit use of sets of sequences known to be functional transcription factor binding sites, and that consider a wide range of levels of conservation. For the human STAT1 ChIP-seq database search regions in the target species (human) was selected +/- 300 bp around the ChIP-seq peak maximum. Repeats and coding regions were masked. Multiple sequence alignment were used to assemble orthologous input sequences from other species.

Portal providing identifiers for Antibodies, Model Organisms, and Tools (software, databases, services) created in support of the Resource Identification Initiative, which aims to promote research resource identification, discovery, and reuse. The portal offers a central location for obtaining and exploring Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs) - persistent and unique identifiers for referencing a research resource. A critical goal of the RII is the widespread adoption of RRIDs to cite resources in the biomedical literature and other places that reference their generation or use. RRIDs use established community identifiers where they exist, and are cross-referenced in their system where more than one identifier exists for a single resource.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 14,2026. Database of data and knowledge linking genes and chromosome regions to addiction that were extracted from reviewing more than 1,000 peer-reviewed publications from between 1976 and 2006. This list of publications included review papers on addiction selected from results of PUBMED query "(addiction OR drug abuse) AND review" as well as research papers selected from PUBMED query "(addiction OR drug abuse) AND (gene OR microarray OR proteomics OR QTL OR population association OR genetic linkage)". The data spanned multiple technology platforms including classical hypothesis-testing of single genes, identification of significantly differentially expressed genes in microarray experiments, identification of significantly differentially expressed proteins in proteomics assays, identification of addiction-vulnerable chromosome regions in animal QTL studies, genetic linkage studies, population association studies, and OMIM annotations. From each publication they collected the genes, proteins, or chromosome regions linked to addiction, as well as metadata such as species, nature of the addictive substance, studied brain regions, technology platforms, and experimental parameters. In total, they collected 2,343 items of evidence linking 1,500 human genes to addiction. Among them 396 genes were supported by two or more items of evidence. The interface supports browsing of the genes by chromosome or pathways, advanced text search by gene ID, organism, type of addictive substance, technology platform, protein domain, and/or PUBMED ID, and sequence search by BLAST similarity. All data, database schema, and MySQL commands are freely available for download.
