Database for identifying orthologous phenotypes (phenologs). Mapping between genotype and phenotype is often non-obvious, complicating prediction of genes underlying specific phenotypes. This problem can be addressed through comparative analyses of phenotypes. We define phenologs based upon overlapping sets of orthologous genes associated with each phenotype. Comparisons of >189,000 human, mouse, yeast, and worm gene-phenotype associations reveal many significant phenologs, including novel non-obvious human disease models. For example, phenologs suggest a yeast model for mammalian angiogenesis defects and an invertebrate model for vertebrate neural tube birth defects. Phenologs thus create a rich framework for comparing mutational phenotypes, identify adaptive reuse of gene systems, and suggest new disease genes. To search for phenologs, go to the basic search page and enter a list of genes in the box provided, using Entrez gene identifiers for mouse/human genes, locus ids for yeast (e.g., YHR200W), or sequence names for worm (e.g., B0205.3). It is expected that this list of genes will all be associated with a particular system, trait, mutational phenotype, or disease. The search will return all identified model organism/human mutational phenotypes that show any overlap with the input set of the genes, ranked according to their hypergeometric probability scores. Clicking on a particular phenolog will result in a list of genes associated with the phenotype, from which potential new candidate genes can identified. Currently known phenotypes in the database are available from the link labeled ''Find phenotypes'', where the associated gene can be submitted as queries, or alternately, can be searched directly from the link provided.

ProPortal is a database containing genomic, metagenomic, transcriptomic and field data for the marine cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus. Our goal is to provide a source of cross-referenced data across multiple scales of biological organization--from the genome to the ecosystem--embracing the full diversity of ecotypic variation within this microbial taxon, its sister group, Synechococcus and phage that infect them. The site currently contains the genomes of 13 Prochlorococcus strains, 11 Synechococcus strains and 28 cyanophage strains that infect one or both groups. Cyanobacterial and cyanophage genes are clustered into orthologous groups that can be accessed by keyword search or through a genome browser. Users can also identify orthologous gene clusters shared by cyanobacterial and cyanophage genomes. Gene expression data for Prochlorococcus ecotypes MED4 and MIT9313 allow users to identify genes that are up or downregulated in response to environmental stressors. In addition, the transcriptome in synchronized cells grown on a 24-h light-dark cycle reveals the choreography of gene expression in cells in a ''natural'' state. Metagenomic sequences from the Global Ocean Survey from Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus and phage genomes are archived so users can examine the differences between populations from diverse habitats. Finally, an example of cyanobacterial population data from the field is included.
