The Reactome project is a collaboration among Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, The European Bioinformatics Institute, and The Gene Ontology Consortium to develop a curated resource of core pathways and reactions in human biology. The information in this database is authored by biological researchers with expertise in their fields, maintained by the Reactome editorial staff, and cross-referenced with the sequence databases at NCBI, Ensembl and UniProt, the UCSC Genome Browser , HapMap, KEGG(Gene and Compound ), ChEBI, PubMed and GO. In addition to curated human events, inferred orthologous events in 22 non-human species including mouse, rat, chicken, puffer fish, worm, fly, yeast, two plants and E.coli are also available. A description of Reactome has been published in Genome Biology. ... [Information of the supplier]
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. (...) ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
An international research consortium has been formed to create the most detailed and medically useful picture to date of human genetic variation. The 1000 Genomes Project will involve sequencing the genomes of at least a thousand people from around the world. The project will receive major support from the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in Hinxton, England, the Beijing Genomics Institute Shenzhen in China and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Drawing on the expertise of multidisciplinary research teams, the 1000 Genomes Project will develop a new map of the human genome that will provide a view of biomedically relevant DNA variations at a resolution unmatched by current resources. As with other major human genome reference projects, data from the 1000 Genomes Project will be made swiftly available to the worldwide scientific community through freely accessible public databases. ...

Argosy's Visible Body is the most comprehensive human anatomy visualization tool available today. This entirely Web-delivered application offers an unparalleled understanding of human anatomy. The Visible Body includes 3D models of over 1,700 anatomical structures, including all major organs and systems of the human body. The Visible Body has been free to all registered users since it launched in December 2007. Beginning in May 2009, in order to pay for server maintenance and bandwidth, we must charge a subscription fee so that the site can support itself. ... [Information of the supplier]

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]
