Collection of genome databases for vertebrates and other eukaryotic species with DNA and protein sequence search capabilities. Used to automatically annotate genome, integrate this annotation with other available biological data and make data publicly available via web. Ensembl tools include BLAST, BLAT, BioMart and the Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) for all supported species.

https://github.com/Ensembl

Public database that stores areas of genome that differ between individual genomes (variants) and, where available, associated disease and phenotype information. Different types of variants for several species: single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), short nucleotide insertions and/or deletions, and longer variants classified as structural variants (including CNVs). Effects of variants on the Ensembl transcripts and regulatory features for each species are predicted. You can run same analysis on your own data using Variant Effect Predictor. These data are integrated with other data sources in Ensembl, and can be accessed using the API or website. For several different species in Ensembl, they import variation data (SNPs, CNVs, allele frequencies, genotypes, etc) from a variety of sources (e.g. dbSNP). Imported variants and alleles are subjected to quality control process to flag suspect data. In human, they calculate linkage disequilibrium for each variant, by population.

http://pre.ensembl.org/index.html

Database of genomes that are in the process of being annotated are provided as an early access site for users. Genomes are here when the initial BLAST analysis on a new assembly has been done but the gene build has not been completed. Owing to the preliminary nature of the data, Pre-Ensembl provides views of the assembly, BLAST against the assembly and download of portions of the assembly - and little else. A number of ready-made tools for processing your data are also available. In general a full Ensembl release takes months depending on how complex the data are and the time constraints of people in the team. Occasionally a more complete gene build will be released on this site, but without any comparative genomics, variation or other additional data. Many other species with fully annotated genomic data, more website features and documentation are available at www.ensembl.org

http://stothard.afns.ualberta.ca/downloads/NGS-SNP/

A collection of command-line scripts for providing rich annotations for SNPs identified by the sequencing of transcripts or whole genomes from organisms with reference sequences in Ensembl. Included among the annotations, several of which are not available from any existing SNP annotation tools, are the results of detailed comparisons with orthologous sequences. These comparisons allow, for example, SNPs to be sorted or filtered based on how drastically the SNP changes the score of a protein alignment. Other fields indicate the names of overlapping protein domains or features, and the conservation of both the SNP site and flanking regions. NCBI, Ensembl, and Uniprot IDs are provided for genes, transcripts, and proteins when applicable, along with Gene Ontology terms, a gene description, phenotypes linked to the gene, and an indication of whether the SNP is novel or known. A ?Model_Annotations? field provides several annotations obtained by transferring in silico the SNP to an orthologous gene, typically in a well-characterized species.

https://www.bgee.org/

Database to retrieve and compare gene expression patterns between animal species. Bgee first maps heterogeneous expression data (currently bulk RNA-Seq, scRNA-Seq, Affymetrix, in situ hybridization, and EST data) to anatomy and development of different species. Bgee is based exclusively on curated healthy wild-type expression data (e.g., no gene knock-out, no treatment, no disease), to provide a comparable reference of gene expression.

Template queries, as well as the QueryBuilder itself, allow you to perform searches that span data from more than one category. Advanced users can use a flexible query interface to construct their own data mining queries across the multiple integrated data sources, to modify existing template queries or to create your own template queries. Access our FlyMine data via our Application Programming Interface (API). We provide client libraries in the following languages: Perl, Python, Ruby and & Java API

http://www.animalgenome.org/cgi-bin/QTLdb/index

Database of trait mapping data, i.e. QTL (phenotype / expression, eQTL), candidate gene and association data (GWAS) and copy number variations (CNV) mapped to livestock animal genomes, to facilitate locating and comparing discoveries within and between species. New data and database tools are continually developed to align various trait mapping data to map-based genome features, such as annotated genes. QTLdb is open to house QTL/association date from other animal species where feasible. Most scientific journals require that any original QTL/association data be deposited into public databases before paper may be accepted for publication. User curator accounts are provided for direct data deposit. Users can download QTLdb data from each species or individual chromosome.

http://www.peptideatlas.org

Multi-organism, publicly accessible compendium of peptides identified in a large set of tandem mass spectrometry proteomics experiments. Mass spectrometer output files are collected for human, mouse, yeast, and several other organisms, and searched using the latest search engines and protein sequences. All results of sequence and spectral library searching are subsequently processed through the Trans Proteomic Pipeline to derive a probability of correct identification for all results in a uniform manner to insure a high quality database, along with false discovery rates at the whole atlas level. The raw data, search results, and full builds can be downloaded for other uses. All results of sequence searching are processed through PeptideProphet to derive a probability of correct identification for all results in a uniform manner ensuring a high quality database. All peptides are mapped to Ensembl and can be viewed as custom tracks on the Ensembl genome browser. The long term goal of the project is full annotation of eukaryotic genomes through a thorough validation of expressed proteins. The PeptideAtlas provides a method and a framework to accommodate proteome information coming from high-throughput proteomics technologies. The online database administers experimental data in the public domain. You are encouraged to contribute to the database.

http://www.ensemblgenomes.org/

Database portal offering integrated access to genome-scale data from non-vertebrate species of scientific interest, developed using the Ensembl genome annotation and visualization platform. Ensembl Genomes consists of five sub-portals (for bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and invertebrate metazoa) designed to complement the availability of vertebrate genomes in Ensembl. Many of the databases supporting the portal have been built in close collaboration with the scientific community - essential for maintaining the accuracy and usefulness of the resource. A common set of user interfaces (which include a graphical genome browser, FTP, BLAST search, a query optimized data warehouse, programmatic access, and a Perl API) is provided for all domains. Data types incorporated include annotation of (protein and non-protein coding) genes, cross references to external resources, and high throughput experimental data (e.g. data from large scale studies of gene expression and polymorphism visualized in their genomic context). Additionally, extensive comparative analysis has been performed, both within defined clades and across the wider taxonomy, and sequence alignments and gene trees resulting from this can be accessed through the site.

http://decipher.sanger.ac.uk/

Interactive database which incorporates a suite of tools designed to aid the interpretation of submicroscopic chromosomal imbalance. Used to enhance clinical diagnosis by retrieving information from bioinformatics resources relevant to the imbalance found in the patient. Contributing to the DECIPHER database is a Consortium, comprising an international community of academic departments of clinical genetics. Each center maintains control of its own patient data (which are password protected within the center''''s own DECIPHER project) until patient consent is given to allow anonymous genomic and phenotypic data to become freely viewable within Ensembl and other genome browsers. Once data are shared, consortium members are able to gain access to the patient report and contact each other to discuss patients of mutual interest, thus facilitating the delineation of new microdeletion and microduplication syndromes.
