ASePCR (Alternative Splicing electronic PCR) is a tool for carrying out e-PCR to detect differences in amplicon sizes in transcripts from different tissues and organs.
Gene modeling server which focuses on the modeling of alternative splicing. It is based on the alignment of mRNA, EST and protein sequences and combines genome-based clustering and transcript assembly. Supports human, mouse and rat genomes.
BeetleBase (http://www.beetlebase.org) has been updated to provide more comprehensive genomic information for the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. The database contains genomic sequence scaffolds mapped to 10 linkage groups (genome assembly release Tcas_3.0), genetic linkage maps, the official gene set, Reference Sequences from NCBI (RefSeq), predicted gene models, ESTs and whole-genome tiling array data representing several developmental stages. The database was reconstructed using the upgraded Generic Model Organism Database (GMOD) modules. Genome information is visualized as tracks in GBrowse. The updated genetic map is visualized using the comparative genetic map viewer CMAP. To enhance the database search capabilities, the BLAST and BLAT search tools have been integrated with the GMOD tools.
CanPredict uses a combination of computational methods to predict whether specific sequence changes in a protein are likely to be cancer-associated mutations.
E2G is a tool that maps a large set of EST and cDNA sequences to a user-supplied genomic sequence. The use of pre-computed indexed data structures increases the efficiency of the sequence comparison process, allowing a large amount of data to be mapped within a reasonable timeframe.
Full-Parasites is a transcriptome database of apicomplexa parasites, which include Plasmodium and Toxoplasma species. It contains EST sequences, full length cDNAs, transcription start sites and RNA-seq data sets. Various types of cDNA data resources were interconnected with our original database functionalities. By providing the largest unique full-length cDNA and dynamic transcriptome data, Full-Parasites is useful for understanding host-parasite interactions.
GeMprospector is designed to find cross-species genetic marker candidates in legumes and grasses. GeMprospector automates PCR primer design based on multiple sequence alignments of submitted ESTs and their homologues in sequence databases from legumes or grasses.
GenBank is a comprehensive database that contains publicly available nucleotide sequences for more than 300,000 organisms named at the genus level or lower, obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch submissions from large-scale sequencing projects, including whole genome shotgun (WGS) and environmental sampling projects. Daily data exchange with the European Molecular Biology Laboratory Nucleotide Sequence Database in Europe and the DNA Data Bank of Japan ensures worldwide coverage. GenBank is accessible through the NCBI Entrez retrieval system, which integrates data from the major DNA and protein sequence databases along with taxonomy, genome, mapping, protein structure and domain information, and the biomedical journal literature via PubMed. BLAST provides sequence similarity searches of GenBank and other sequence databases.
