Background
Apollo, a genome annotation viewer and editor, has become a widely used genome annotation and visualization tool for distributed genome annotation projects. When using Apollo for annotation, database updates are carried out by uploading intermediate annotation files into the respective database. This non-direct database upload is laborious and evokes problems of data synchronicity.Results
To overcome these limitations we extended the Apollo data adapter with a generic, configurable web service client that is able to retrieve annotation data in a GAME-XML-formatted string and pass it on to Apollo's internal input routine.Conclusion
This Apollo web service adapter, Apollo2Go, simplifies the data exchange in distributed projects and aims to render the annotation process more comfortable. The Apollo2Go software is freely available from ftp://ftpmips.gsf.de/plants/apollo_webservice. 相似文献32.

Phosphopeptide binding by Sld3 links Dbf4‐dependent kinase to MCM replicative helicase activation 下载免费PDF全文
The initiation of eukaryotic DNA replication requires the assembly of active CMG (Cdc45‐MCM‐GINS) helicases at replication origins by a set of conserved and essential firing factors. This process is controlled during the cell cycle by cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) and Dbf4‐dependent kinase (DDK), and in response to DNA damage by the checkpoint kinase Rad53/Chk1. Here we show that Sld3, previously shown to be an essential CDK and Rad53 substrate, is recruited to the inactive MCM double hexamer in a DDK‐dependent manner. Sld3 binds specifically to DDK‐phosphorylated peptides from two MCM subunits (Mcm4, 6) and then recruits Cdc45. MCM mutants that cannot bind Sld3 or Sld3 mutants that cannot bind phospho‐MCM or Cdc45 do not support replication. Moreover, phosphomimicking mutants in Mcm4 and Mcm6 bind Sld3 without DDK and facilitate DDK‐independent replication. Thus, Sld3 is an essential “reader” of DDK phosphorylation, integrating signals from three distinct protein kinase pathways to coordinate DNA replication during S phase. 相似文献

For nearly two decades, the process of reviewing the ethical merit of research involving human subjects has been based on the application of principles initially described in the U.S. National Commission's Belmont Report, and later articulated more fully by Beauchamp and Childress in their Principles of Biomedical Ethics. Recently, the use of ethical principles for deliberating about moral problems in medicine and research, referred to in the pejorative sense as "principlism", has come under scrutiny. In this paper we argue that these principles can provide a foundation for the source of ethical appraisal of human research, but are not themselves wholly adequate for this purpose. Therefore, we further propose that (1) principles should be understood as heuristics that can be "specified" as described by De Grazia (1992), and (2) that the principle-based approach should be supplemented by formally incorporating "sensitivity to context" into the evaluation of clinical trials. 相似文献

The rapid expansion of information and knowledge of genetics has implications for the question of whether, and under what circumstances, information discovered in the course of genetic research should be conveyed to research participants and/or their relatives. The aim of this paper is to propose an ethically defensible solution to a specific case example illustrating this problem. To do this we reviewed the literature to find answers to the following three questions: (1) What do current regulations, guidelines, and commentary say about the disclosure of genetic risk information obtained through research to research participants? (2) What do current regulations, guidelines, and commentary say about the disclosure of genetic risk information obtained through research to the relatives of research subjects? and (3) What do current regulations, guidelines, and commentary say about the disclosure of genetic risk information obtained through research about former research participants who are now deceased? Our conclusion is that current U.S. federal guidelines governing the use of human subjects in research, as well as much of the current literature, do not adequately address the familial dimension inherent in genetic research, are virtually silent on the issue of sharing information of relevance to family members, and do not protect the deceased. It is our belief that this omission needs to be corrected and that explicit guidance on this issue needs to be provided to institutional review boards and researchers alike. 相似文献

Background
High density genotyping data are indispensable for genomic analyses of complex traits in animal and crop species. Maize is one of the most important crop plants worldwide, however a high density SNP genotyping array for analysis of its large and highly dynamic genome was not available so far.Results
We developed a high density maize SNP array composed of 616,201 variants (SNPs and small indels). Initially, 57 M variants were discovered by sequencing 30 representative temperate maize lines and then stringently filtered for sequence quality scores and predicted conversion performance on the array resulting in the selection of 1.2 M polymorphic variants assayed on two screening arrays. To identify high-confidence variants, 285 DNA samples from a broad genetic diversity panel of worldwide maize lines including the samples used for sequencing, important founder lines for European maize breeding, hybrids, and proprietary samples with European, US, semi-tropical, and tropical origin were used for experimental validation. We selected 616 k variants according to their performance during validation, support of genotype calls through sequencing data, and physical distribution for further analysis and for the design of the commercially available Affymetrix® Axiom® Maize Genotyping Array. This array is composed of 609,442 SNPs and 6,759 indels. Among these are 116,224 variants in coding regions and 45,655 SNPs of the Illumina® MaizeSNP50 BeadChip for study comparison. In a subset of 45,974 variants, apart from the target SNP additional off-target variants are detected, which show only a minor bias towards intermediate allele frequencies. We performed principal coordinate and admixture analyses to determine the ability of the array to detect and resolve population structure and investigated the extent of LD within a worldwide validation panel.Conclusions
The high density Affymetrix® Axiom® Maize Genotyping Array is optimized for European and American temperate maize and was developed based on a diverse sample panel by applying stringent quality filter criteria to ensure its suitability for a broad range of applications. With 600 k variants it is the largest currently publically available genotyping array in crop species.Electronic supplementary material

The pituitary-adrenal secretory response to acute and chronic stress, suppressibility of adrenocortical secretions by exogenous glucocorticoids, and hypothalamic content and in vitro release of the two major peptidergic activators of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, corticotropinreleasing hormone (CRH) and arginine-vasopressin (AVP), were examined in rats receiving daily melatonin (MEL) injections coincident with the circadian increment of endogenous pineal and adrenocortical secretory activity. After 7 days of MEL administration, the rats displayed a significant attenuation of the adrenocortical secretory response to acute and chronic stress. Chronic MEL treatment also prevented the decline in adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) release resulting from chronic stress exposure. Hypothalamic CRH content was significantly lower in rats receiving MEL treatment, while AVP remained largely unaltered; however, MEL administration counteracted the chronic stress-induced decrease in hypothalamic AVP content and in vitro release. When exposed to dexamethasone in vitro, hypothalamic explants from MEL-treated rats responded with a stronger suppression of CRH and AVP release than those originating from vehicle-injected animals. These observations indicate that MEL attenuates the adrenocortical response to stress and influences the biosynthesis, release and glucocorticoid responsiveness of hypothalamic ACTH secretagogues. 相似文献
