Asterias is a set of tools for the analyses of high throughput genomic data that includes applications for microarray data normalization, filtering, detection of differential gene expression, class and survival prediction model building, and analysis of array CGH data. Most applications use parallel computing resulting in significant increases in speed.
EMAGE is a freely available online database of in situ gene expression patterns in the developing mouse embryo. Gene expression domains from raw images are extracted and integrated spatially into a set of standard 3D virtual mouse embryos at different stages of development, which allows data interrogation by spatial methods. An anatomy ontology is also used to describe sites of expression, which allows data to be queried using text-based methods. Data coverage has been increased by sourcing from a greater selection of journals.
KAAS (KEGG Automatic Annotation Server) is a tool for ortholog assignment and pathway mapping. KAAS provides functional annotation of genes by BLAST comparisons against the manually curated KEGG GENES database. The result contains KO (KEGG Orthology) assignments and automatically generated KEGG pathways.
The MEME Suite web server is a unified portal for discovery and analysis of sequence motifs (e.g. DNA binding sites, protein interaction domains). Motifs with/without gaps may be discovered, searched for in DNA and protein databases, compared to other motifs and analyzed for putative function by association with gene ontology terms.
MEME is a tool designed for discovering and searching for DNA motifs such as transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) or protein domains.
The MouseBook databases and web portal provide access to information about mutant mouse lines held as live or cryopreserved stocks at MRC Harwell. The MouseBook portal integrates curated information from the MRC Harwell stock resource, and other Harwell databases, with information from external data resources to provide value-added information. MouseBook can be searched either using an intuitive Google style free text search or using the Mammalian Phenotype (MP) ontology tree structure. Text searches can be on gene, allele, strain identifier (e.g. MGI ID) or phenotype term and are assisted by automatic recognition of term types and autocompletion of gene and allele names covered by the database.
One-Block CYRCA is a program for identifying blocks (local ungapped profiles of the most conserved regions of protein families and domains) in a multiple sequence alignment based on the LAMA and CYRCA block-to-block alignment methods.
Pcons.net is a protein structure prediction meta server that provides automated tools for
protein structure prediction and analysis using a consensus approach.
