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.

Myostatin in relation to physical activity and dysglycaemia and its effect on energy metabolism in human skeletal muscle cells.

TL;DR: The expression of myostatin in relation to exercise and dysglycaemia in skeletal muscle, adipose tissue and plasma is studied and some effects of hisostatin on energy metabolism in primary human muscle cells and Simpson–Golabi–Behmel syndrome (SGBS) adipocytes are examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Survival kinase genes present prognostic significance in glioblastoma

TL;DR: Genes in the PI3K/AKT pathway showed a significantly strong correlation with recurrence rate, further highlighting the pivotal role of PIK3CB in the disease progression, and 17 SKGs together presented a novel GBM prognostic signature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systems Genetic Analysis of Osteoblast-Lineage Cells

TL;DR: A physiologically relevant gene network is identified and used to discover novel genes and regulatory mechanisms involved in the function of osteoblast-lineage cells through the reconstruction of a bone co-expression network using microarray profiles collected on 96 Hybrid Mouse Diversity Panel (HMDP) inbred strains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization and functional study of a cluster of four highly conserved orphan adhesion-GPCR in mouse.

TL;DR: The genomic loci of these four receptors are clustered tightly together in mouse and human genomes and that this cluster likely derives from a single common ancestor gene, developing from one common ancestor in vertebrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired angiogenesis and tumor development by inhibition of the mitotic kinesin Eg5

TL;DR: Induction of Eg5 and four other mitotic kinesins including KIF20A/Mklp2 upon stimulation of in vivo angiogenesis with vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and expression analyses indicate up-regulation of several kinesin-encoding genes predominantly in lymphoblasts and endothelial cells.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.

STRING 8—a global view on proteins and their functional interactions in 630 organisms

TL;DR: The most important new developments in STRING 8 over previous releases include a URL-based programming interface, improved interaction prediction via genomic neighborhood in prokaryotes, and the inclusion of protein structures.
