BioGPS http://biogps.gnf.org is introduced, a centralized gene portal for aggregating distributed gene annotation resources, and embraces the principle of community intelligence, enabling any user to easily and directly contribute to the BioGPS platform.
Abstract
Online gene annotation resources are indispensable for analysis of genomics data. However, the landscape of these online resources is highly fragmented, and scientists often visit dozens of these sites for each gene in a candidate gene list. Here, we introduce BioGPS http://biogps.gnf.org, a centralized gene portal for aggregating distributed gene annotation resources. Moreover, BioGPS embraces the principle of community intelligence, enabling any user to easily and directly contribute to the BioGPS platform.

The Application of DamID to Identify Peripheral Gene Sequences in Differentiated and Primary Cells

TL;DR: A detailed methodology to adapt DamID to novel cell types, in particular differentiated cells in culture, and highlights heretofore largely ignored variations in the PCR amplified DNA products generated by the DamID procedure.

Analysis of structure and gene expression of bovine CCDC3 gene indicates a function in fat metabolism.

TL;DR: This first report of structural analysis and molecular characterization of the CCDC3 gene in cattle will contribute to a better understanding of the yet unknown physiological role of the respective protein in mammals.

Selection against Robertsonian fusions involving housekeeping genes in the house mouse: integrating data from gene expression arrays and chromosome evolution

TL;DR: It is shown that the pericentromeric region of one such chromosome, MMU19, which is infrequently encountered as a fusion partner in wild populations, is significantly enriched for housekeeping genes when compared to other chromosomes in the genome, suggesting that there is selection against breakpoints in the percentromeric area.

Identification by Gene Coregulation Mapping of Novel Genes Involved in Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation

TL;DR: This work takes literature gene sets derived from (supplementary) tables as input and uses gene co-occurrence in these sets for mapping a co-regulation network and identified 43 genes not previously associated with cardiac ESC differentiation for which a putative novel biological function is assigned.

Most mammalian mRNAs are conserved targets of microRNAs

TL;DR: This work overhauled its tool for finding preferential conservation of sequence motifs and applied it to the analysis of human 3'UTRs, increasing by nearly threefold the detected number of preferentially conserved miRNA target sites.

KEGG for linking genomes to life and the environment

TL;DR: KEGG PATHWAY is now supplemented with a new global map of metabolic pathways, which is essentially a combined map of about 120 existing pathway maps, and the KEGG resource is being expanded to suit the needs for practical applications.

Genome-wide atlas of gene expression in the adult mouse brain

Ed S. Lein, +109 more
- 11 Jan 2007 - 
TL;DR: An anatomically comprehensive digital atlas containing the expression patterns of ∼20,000 genes in the adult mouse brain is described, providing an open, primary data resource for a wide variety of further studies concerning brain organization and function.

A gene atlas of the mouse and human protein-encoding transcriptomes

TL;DR: In this paper, high-density oligonucleotide arrays offer the opportunity to examine patterns of gene expression on a genome scale, and the authors have designed custom arrays that interrogate the expression of the vast majority of proteinencoding human and mouse genes and have used them to profile a panel of 79 human and 61 mouse tissues.
