Information on gene expression and regulation is expanding rapidly, and the complexity of the experimental design and data makes unique demands on databases to store the results. We describe a prototype database containing experimental results on the expression of mammalian β-like globin genes, along with several query methods for accessing the information. The database has tables for DNA transfer experiments, protein–DNA binding results, and positions of DNase hypersensitive sites, which make extensive use of nested data structures. Comparison of data from various mammals is accomplished by providing a common coordinate system via a simultaneous alignment of matching DNA sequences. Interactive access to the database is available at a site called theGlobin Gene Serveron the World Wide Web (http://globin.cse. psu.edu). This software should be useful for any genetic system in which DNA sequence data are available. 相似文献

An open-access World Wide Web application has been developed which enables the cross-linking of anatomical data on the phenotypic manifestations of human and mouse malformation syndromes to data on gene function and/or expression patterns in the mouse GXD database. Ultimately, the system has been designed to assist biologists in the process of discovering hitherto unidentified malformation genes. More specifically, it facilitates search from the phenotypic level. AVAILABILITY: The application and further information is available at http://genetics.ich.ucl.ac.uk/linksearchtool. 相似文献

Two-dimensional electrophoresis has rapidly become the method of choice for resolving complex mixtures of proteins. Since the technique was pioneered in 1975, 2-D gel methods have undergone a series of enhancements to optimize resolution and reproducibility. Recent improvements in the sensitivity of mass spectrometry have allowed the direct identification of polypeptides from 2-D gels by a procedure termed “mass profiling”. In combination, these two techniques have made possible the characterization of the complete collection of gene products, or proteome, of an organism. Proteomes are increasingly being documented as interactive informational databases available on the World Wide Web (WWW). This availability of organismic global protein patterns will no doubt be an invaluable resource aiding the discovery of diagnostic and therapeutic disease markers. 相似文献

Protein sequence data are as useful and valuable today as was envisioned by pioneering sequencers and by the organizers of the first sequence database. Sequence analysis was first the province of specialists who developed search, comparison, and tree-building methods. Microcomputers, communication satellites, and the Internet have made these methods accessible to any scientist. The rapid increase in the data has driven a succession of changes in how databases are compiled, distributed, and accessed. Large public databases have become international collaborations. Although they need to develop still more efficient ways to accumulate, organize, annotate, and standardize huge amounts of data, inadequate support is available for such efforts. Thus there will be greater reliance on direct input from the scientific community. The World Wide Web is essential but not sufficient for integrated access to related databases. 相似文献

Reports from the cutting edge of parasitic genome analysis. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This new feature in Parasitology Today will host reports from the laboratories involved in genomics of parasites, be that sequencing, mapping or 'functional genomics' - the mining and analysis of the sequence datasets, and the development of postgenomics tools to examine gene expression, response to drugs and population variability. It will publicize new technology to wider audiences, let communities of researchers know about novel resources (particularly those available through the World Wide Web) and highlight significant advances in the understanding of parasitic genomes through functional genomics. 相似文献

There are currently 100–200 microbiology-related databases in existence, although it is impossible to find answers to queries
that span even a few of these. The Center for Microbial Ecology (CME) at Michigan State University seeks to change this situation
by coordinating the creation of an Integrated Microbial Database (IMD), accessible through the World Wide Web (WWW). Such
a system will contain up-to-date phylogeny and taxonomy, gene sequences (including genomes), biochemical data, metabolic
models, ecological and phenotypic data. Current main obstacles to creation of an IMD are the lack of a single freely available
organismal nomenclature with synonyms and the availability of much critical data. An IMD will have major impacts on microbial
biology: currently intractable fundamental questions might be answered, experiments could be refocused, and new commercial
possibilities created. An IMD should remain freely available and be created under an open development model.

We have created databases and software applications for the analysis of DNA mutations at the human p53 gene, the human hprt gene and both the rodent transgenic lacI and lacZ loci. The databases themselves are stand-alone dBASE files and the software for analysis of the databases runs on IBM-compatible computers with Microsoft Windows. Each database has a separate software analysis program. The software created for these databases permit the filtering, ordering, report generation and display of information in the database. In addition, a significant number of routines have been developed for the analysis of single base substitutions. One method of obtaining the databases and software is via the World Wide Web. Open the following home page with a Web Browser: http://sunsite.unc.edu/dnam/mainpage. html . Alternatively, the databases and programs are available via public FTP from: anonymous@sunsite.unc.edu. There is no password required to enter the system. The databases and software are found beneath the subdirectory: pub/academic/biology/dna-mutations. Two other programs are available at the site, a program for comparison of mutational spectra and a program for entry of mutational data into a relational database. 相似文献

SubtiList is the reference database dedicated to the genome of Bacillus subtilis 168, the paradigm of Gram-positive endospore-forming bacteria. Developed in the framework of the B.subtilis genome project, SubtiList provides a curated dataset of DNA and protein sequences, combined with the relevant annotations and functional assignments. Information about gene functions and products is continuously updated by linking relevant bibliographic references. Recently, sequence corrections arising from both systematic verifications and submissions by individual scientists were included in the reference genome sequence. SubtiList is based on a generic relational data schema and a World Wide Web interface developed for the handling of bacterial genomes, called GenoList. The World Wide Web interface was designed to allow users to easily browse through genome data and retrieve information according to common biological queries. SubtiList also provides more elaborate tools, such as pattern searching, which are tightly connected to the overall browsing system. SubtiList is accessible at http://genolist.pasteur.fr/SubtiList/. Similar bacterial databases are accessible at http://genolist.pasteur.fr/. 相似文献

Bioinformatics in glycobiology 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
In comparison with genes and proteins, attention paid to oligosaccharides that modify proteins is still marginal. Accordingly, bioinformatics is so far poorly involved in glycobiology. Some initiatives have been taken, however, to collect in databases all glycobiology-relevant information or to design specific data mining algorithms to infer predictions or identify oligosaccharide structures. In this review, we make a non-exhaustive survey of the available glycobiology-related bioinformatic resources, focussing mainly on those resources that are available through the World Wide Web. Some well-curated databases are identified, but the development of specialised algorithms appears to be limited. 相似文献

The Histone Sequence Database is an annotated and searchable collection of all available histone and histone fold sequences and structures. Particular emphasis has been placed on documenting conflicts between similar sequence entries from a number of source databases, conflicts that are not necessarily documented in the source databases themselves. New additions to the database include compilations of post-translational modifications for each of the core and linker histones, as well as genomic information in the form of map loci for the human histone gene complement, with the genetic loci linked to Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM). The database is freely accessible through the World Wide Web at either http://genome.nhgri.nih.gov/histones/ or http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih. gov/Baxevani/HISTONES 相似文献

Researchers are eagerly waiting for the physical map of rice to become completed and available for use as a model for all cereals. The most significant advances of the past year have been the progress toward positional cloning of genes and the identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL) from detailed restriction fragment length polymorphism maps. Future focus will be: first, the enhanced dissemination and integration of the available data in World Wide Web accessible databases for easy comparison of genetic and physical mapping data across various species; second, the expanded distribution of a wide variety of DNA materials (cDNA clones, yeast artificial chromosomes, bacterial artificial chromosomes and other probes) for use in other cereals on the basis of the rice model map; and third, the applied breeding by locating and isolating sequences corresponding to important agronomic traits, often correlating with QTL. 相似文献

The Gene Expression Database (GXD) is a community resource that stores and integrates expression information for the laboratory mouse, with a particular emphasis on mouse development, and makes these data freely available in formats appropriate for comprehensive analysis. GXD is implemented as a relational database and integrated with the Mouse Genome Database (MGD) to enable global analysis of genotype, expression and phenotype information. Interconnections with sequence databases and with databases from other species further extend GXD's utility for the analysis of gene expression data. GXD is available through the Mouse Genome Informatics Web Site at http://www.informatics.jax.org/ 相似文献

The applications of functional genomics, proteomics and informatics to cancer research have yielded a tremendous amount of information, which is growing all the time. Much of this information is available publicly on the Internet and ranges from general information about different cancers from a patient or clinical viewpoint, through to databases suitable for cancer researchers of all backgrounds, to very specific sites dedicated to individual genes or molecules. A simple search for 'cancer' from a typical Web browser search engine yields more than half a million hits; an even more specific search for 'leukaemia' (>40 000 hits) or 'p53' (>5700 hits) yields far too many hits to allow one to identify particular sites of interest. This review aims to provide a brief guide to some of the resources and databases that can be used as springboards to home in rapidly on information relevant to many fields of cancer research. As such, this article will not focus on a single website but hopes to illustrate some of the ways that postgenomic biology is revolutionizing cancer research. It will cover genomics and proteomics approaches that have been applied to studying global expression patterns in cancers, in addition to providing links ranging from general information about cancer to specific cancer gene mutation databases. 相似文献

An Internet computing server has been developed to identify all the occurrences of the internal sequence repeats in a protein and DNA sequences. Further, an option is provided for the users to check the occurrence(s) of the resultant sequence repeats in the other sequence and structure (Protein Data Bank) databases. The databases deployed in the proposed computing engine are up-to-date and thus the users will get the latest information available in the respective databases. The server is freely accessible over the World Wide Web (WWW). AVAILABILITY: http://bioserver1.physics.iisc.ernet.in/fair/ 相似文献

The generation of large numbers of partial cDNA sequences, or expressed sequence tags (ESTs), has provided a method with which to sample a large number of genes from an organism. More than 25,000 Arabidopsis thaliana ESTs have been deposited in public databases, producing the largest collection of ESTs for any plant species. We describe here the application of a method of reducing redundancy and increasing information content in this collection by grouping overlapping ESTs representing the same gene into a "contig" or assembly. The increased information content of these assemblies allows more putative identifications to be assigned based on the results of similarity searches with nucleotide and protein databases. The results of this analysis indicate that sequence information is available for approximately 12,600 nonoverlapping ESTs from Arabidopsis. Comparison of the assemblies with 953 Arabidopsis coding sequences indicates that up to 57% of all Arabidopsis genes are represented by an EST. Clustering analysis of these sequences suggests that between 300 and 700 gene families are represented by between 700 and 2000 sequences in the EST database. A database of the assembled sequences, their putative identifications, and cellular roles is available through the World Wide Web. 相似文献

The development of Internet-based virtual resources is a relatively new area of scientific and technical activity that is currently undergoing rapid expansion. Major factors fuelling recent growth include the emergence of multimedia capabilities through the rapid evolution of the World Wide Web, the reduction in cost of high quality personal computers and graphics workstations and the provision of mass-marketed provider services. Prior to 1995 the presence of Internet resources in the glycosciences was virtually non-existent. Existing scientific knowledge was primarily made available on the Net through the provision of databases from gopher and ftp sites. A particular example in the glycosciences is the Carbbank database of biological carbohydrate sequences. We will describe here our efforts in 1994–95 in establishing The Glycoscience Network (TGN, http://bellatrix.pcl.ox.ac.uk/TGN/). These activities included the establishment of a newsgroup, mailing lists, Web resources and the running of the First Electronic Glycoscience Conference (EGC-1, http://bellatrix.pcl.ox.ac.uk/egc/). EGC-1 included many novel initiatives in the glycosciences including electronic posters and papers, a Virtual Conference Centre, a Web-based hyperglossary, Virtual Trade and Employment Centres, refereed electronic publishing, and the creation of a Virtual Reality Gallery. We would like to look towards the near future and discuss several initiatives in virtual resource creation that we believe will have significant scientific impact on the glycosciences including the development of bioinformatics-based servers, sophisticated interactive databases, and videoconferencing. Furthermore, we cherish the belief that these resources will foster international scientific collaboration and progress of an extent never previously possible. Finally, we indulge in speculation and make some suggestions on the form and long-term impact of Glycoscience Virtual Resources. We predict that their development may completely reconstruct the scientific environment that we work in as scientists and we reflect on the probable benefits and pitfalls to be encountered.This paper was presented at the First Electronic Glycoscience Conference (EGCI) on the World Wide Web, September 1995. 相似文献

Comparative maps have been a valuable resource for extrapolating biological information among organisms. The relationship between mouse and human maps provides a framework for integrating information from each species and thereby increasing the utility of all available data such as gene location, structure and function. This review describes the various public resources, both databases and web sites, containing genome-wide mouse-human comparative map information available through the World-Wide Web. We will focus on the use and applicability of these resources in their current form and consider future potential directions. 相似文献
