http://biogps.org/

An extensible and customizable gene annotation portal that emphasizes community extensibility and user customizability. It is a complete resource for learning about gene and protein function. Community extensibility reflects a belief that any BioGPS user should be able to add new content to BioGPS using the simple plugin interface, completely independently of the core developer team. User customizability recognizes that not all users are interested in the same set of gene annotation data, so the gene report layouts enable each user to define the information that is most relevant to them. Currently, BioGPS supports eight species: Human (Homo sapiens), Mouse (Mus musculus), Rat (Rattus norvegicus), Fruitfly (Drosophila melanogaster), Nematode (Caenorhabditis elegans), Zebrafish (Danio rerio), Thale-cress (Arabidopsis thaliana), Frog (Xenopus tropicalis), and Pig (Sus scrofa). BioGPS presents data in an ortholog-centric format, which allows users to display mouse plugins next to human ones. Our data for defining orthologs comes from NCBI's HomoloGene database.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on April 27,2023. Biositemaps represent a mechanism for computational biologists and bio-informaticians to openly broadcast and retrieve meta-data about biomedical data, tools and services (i.e., biomedical resources) over the Internet. All Institutions with an interest in biomedical research can publish a biositemap.rdf file on their Internet site. The technology, developed by the Biositemaps Working Group of the NIH Roadmap National Centers of Biomedical Computing (NCBC), addresses (i) locating, (ii) querying, (iii) composing or combining, and (iv) mining biomedical resources. Each site which intends to contribute to the inventory instantiates a file on its Internet site biositemap.rdf which conforms to a defined RDF schema and uses concepts from the Biomedical Resource Ontology to describe the resources. Each biositemap.rdf file is simply a list of controlled metadata about resources (software tools, databases, material resources) that your organization uses or believes are important to biomedical research. The key enabling technologies are the Information Model (IM) which is the list of metadata fields about each resource (resource_name, description, contact_person, resource_type,...) and the Biomedical Resource Ontology (BRO) which is a controlled terminology for the resource_typeand which is used to improve the sensitivity and specificity of web searches. Biositemaps blend the features of Sitemaps (enabling efficient web-content exploration) and RSS Feeds (a mechanism for wide and effective news dissemination). As a hybrid between Sitemaps and RSS feeds, the Biositemap infrastructure facilitates a decentralized, portable, extensible and computationally tractable generation and consumption of meta-data about existent, revised and new resources for biomedical computation. Web browsers, crawlers and robots can discover, accumulate, process, integrate and deliver Biositemaps content to (human or machine) users in a variety of graphical, tabular, computational formats. Biositemaps content allows such web browsers to pool resource-associated metadata from disparate and diverse sites and present it to the user in an integrated fashion. The Biositemaps protocol provides clues, information and directives for all Biositemap web harvesters that point to the existence and content of such biomedical resources at different sites.

http://biodbcore.org

A community-defined, uniform, generic description of the core attributes of biological databases. The BioDBCore checklist is overseen by the International Society for Biocuration (ISB), in collaboration with the BioSharing forum. A catalogue of databases, described according to the BioDBcore guidelines, along with the standards used within them have been partly compiled with the support of Oxford University Press and Re3Data.org. Database providers are encouraged to either create or claim their BioDBCore entry and update it as appropriate., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 15,2026.

http://agem.cnb.csic.es/VisualOmics/aGEM/

Database platform of an integrated view of eight databases (mouse gene expression resources: EMAGE, GXD, GENSAT, BioGPS, ABA, EUREXPRESS; human gene expression databases: HUDSEN, BioGPS and Human Protein Atlas) that allows the experimentalist to retrieve relevant statistical information relating gene expression, anatomical structure (space) and developmental stage (time). Moreover, general biological information from databases such as KEGG, OMIM and MTB is integrated too. It can be queried using gene and anatomical structure. Output information is presented in a friendly format, allowing the user to display expression maps and correlation matrices for a gene or structure during development. An in-depth study of a specific developmental stage is also possible using heatmaps that relate gene expression with anatomical components. This is a powerful tool in the gene expression field that makes easy the access to information related to the anatomical pattern of gene expression in human and mouse, so that it can complement many functional genomics studies. The platform allows the integration of gene expression data with spatial-temporal anatomic data by means of an intuitive and user friendly display., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.
