The HCV database group strives to present HCV-associated genetic and immunologic data in a userfriendly way, by providing access to the central database via web-accessible search interfaces and supplying a number of analysis tools. (...) The HCV search interface allows you to find and download sequences on the basis of a number of criteria. (...) You can either download all sequences (as nucleotides or amino acid sequences) that meet your criteria, or you can limit your set to a specific gene or region by selecting that genomic region on the search interface.

For each known human gene we approve a gene name and symbol (short-form abbreviation). All approved symbols are stored in the HGNC database. Each symbol is unique and we ensure that each gene is only given one approved gene symbol. It is necessary to provide a unique symbol for each gene so that we and others can talk about them, it also facilitates electronic data retrieval from publications. In preference each symbol maintains parallel construction in different members of a gene family and can also be used in other species, especially the mouse. ... [Information of the supplier]
The HuGE Literature Finder is one component of the HuGE Navigator, an integrated, searchable knowledge base of genetic associations and related information in human genome epidemiology. In 2001, HuGENet launched the HuGE Published Literature database (HuGE Pub Lit), a continually updated and accessible knowledge base on the World Wide Web that tracks the growing published literature of human genome epidemiologic studies. HuGE Pub Lit offers a starting point for assembling articles for meta-analysis, highlighting research gaps, suggesting applied research questions, and identifying potential collaborators. HuGE Pub Lit contains links to abstracts on PubMed that meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria (see below). HuGENet research staff is responsible for extracting relevant articles from PubMed and entering them into the HuGE Pub Lit database on a weekly basis. Since June 2007, a new automatic HuGE literature screening – GAPscreener was implemented to assist the weekly HuGE literature scanning from PubMed. The sensitivity of HuGE literature screening performance can reach 97.5%. An average of 500 new articles per week is retrieved by GAPscreener. A researcher who is familiar with the eligibility criteria for human genome epidemiology then reviews each title and abstract (or in a few cases, the full text). This researcher decides whether the study will be included in the database and, if it will, assigns indexing for each article. HuGE Literature Finder is a newly-designed HuGE Pub Lit database that utilizes the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) as an indexing mechanism. ... [Information of the supplier]
This database contains individual-based life history data that have been collected from wild primate populations by nine working group participants over a minimum of 19 years. The purpose of collecting data of this type is to make comparative analyses that can shed light on the population dynamics and the social and ecological adaptations that have shaped both human and nonhuman primate evolution. Records in the database include mortality and fertility schedules across multiple primate taxa. The data are searchable and can be downloaded into csv format. This site was produced by the Evolutionary Ecology of Primate Life Histories Working Group through the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center. This site is currently only accessible for the working group members. If you want to see how the system work, please visit our demo site, which includes an example dataset, representing a subset of the actual database, as well as a live version of the graphical user interface. ...

Welcome to GenAge, a manually curated database of genes related to ageing. GenAge is divided into genes related to longevity and/or ageing in model organisms and ageing-related human genes. The section on human ageing-related genes includes the few genes directly related to ageing in humans and the best candidate genes obtained from model organisms. Human genes are thus considerably better annotated and may serve as a starting point for future studies, including genetic association studies, or even for exploiting clinical interventions in human ageing. A list of genes analyzed for their possible association with human longevity, DNA repair genes classified as ageing- or non-ageing-related, and genes commonly differentially expressed during mammalian ageing which were identified based on our ageing microarray meta-analysis, are also available. The schema of GenAge is available online as well as GenAge's statistics. Release notes for the current build are also available. ... [Information of the supplier]
The SIB and GeneBio have joined their efforts and expertise to bring to you neXtProt that was designed to help researchers make sense of what all these human proteins do in our bodies. neXtProt is both a new and an old resource: new, because we want to create an innovative integrative resource around human proteins and old, because we are building it on top of the high-quality solid work that has been the hallmark of UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot since its inception in 1986. The extensive efforts made by Swiss-Prot to functionally annotate human proteins and curate their sequences and many other features is the foundation on which neXtProt relies. However, clearly this is not enough to populate a resource that needs to address the complexity of the universe of human proteins. ... [Information of the supplier]
H-DBAS is a unique database of alternative splicing (AS) based on H-InvDB. The features of H-DBAS is as follows: 1) Representative AS variants (RASVs) were identified from 8 data sets consist of 6 mammalian model organisms (human, mouse, rat, chimpanzee, macaque and dog). The contents of data sets and the corresponding species are as follows: Full-length cDNA data set, mRNA data set, RNA data set 2) Equally-spliced variants (ESVs) were identified from RASVs between human and mouse, rat, chimpanzee, macaque and dog by using comparative genomics. Splice sites and splice motifs affecting SNPs can be observed in human. 3) RASVs affecting protein functions (protein motif, GO, subcellular localization signal and transmembrane domain) can be observed in human. 4) AS junctions expressed in specified cellular fractions (cytoplasm, nuclear and polysome) of human cell were detected by using RNA-Seq tags. The translation validation of the variants having AS junctions were analyzed by compared with RefSeq junctions. The results are shown from RNA-Seq analysis page. ... [Information of the supplier]
GWAS Central (previously the Human Genome Variation database of Genotype-to-Phenotype information) is a database of summary level findings from genetic association studies, both large and small. We actively gather datasets from public domain projects, and encourage direct data submission from the community. GWAS Central is built upon a basal layer of Markers that comprises all known SNPs and other variants from public databases such as dbSNP and the DBGV. Allele and genotype frequency data, plus genetic association significance findings, are added on top of the Marker data, and organised the same way that investigations are reported in typical journal manuscripts. Critically, no individual level genotypes or phenotypes are presented in GWAS Central – only group level aggregated (summary level) data. The largest unit in a data submission is a Study, which can be thought of as being equivalent to one journal article. This may contain one or more Experiments, one or more Sample Panels of test subjects, and one or more Phenotypes. Sample Panels may be characterised in terms of various Phenotypes, and they also may be combined and/or split into Assayed Panels. The Assayed Panels are used as the basis for reporting allele/genotype frequencies (in `Genotype Experiments`) and/or genetic association findings (in ‘Analysis Experiments’). Environmental factors are handled as part of the Sample Panel and Assayed Panel data structures. ... [Information of the supplier]
AGRICOLA (AGRICultural OnLine Access) serves as the catalog and index to the collections of the National Agricultural Library, as well as a primary public source for world-wide access to agricultural information. The database covers materials in all formats and periods, including printed works from as far back as the 15th century. The records describe publications and resources encompassing all aspects of agriculture and allied disciplines, including animal and veterinary sciences, entomology, plant sciences, forestry, aquaculture and fisheries, farming and farming systems, agricultural economics, extension and education, food and human nutrition, and earth and environmental sciences. Although the NAL Catalog (AGRICOLA) does not contain the text of the materials it cites, thousands of its records are linked to full-text documents online, with new links added daily. ...
