- A Gene Map of the Human Genome: The Human Genome Project is expected to produce a sequence of DNA representing the
functional blueprint and evolutionary history of the human species. However, only about 3% of
this sequence is thought to specify the portions of our 50,000 to 100,000 genes that encode
proteins. '
- A New Gene Map of the Human Genome: This new gene map represents such an index as
it includes the locations, within this text, of more
than 30,000 genes and provides an early
glimpse of some of the most important pieces of
the genome. Even more importantly, the map can
be immediately applied by scientists to the
identification and isolation of genes that either
directly cause human ailments or increase our
susceptibility to disease.
- Align against Greengenes (16S): Use this tool for aligning your set of 16S rRNA gene sequences using NAST or for finding near-neighbors or both. Each query sequence in your uploaded file will be searched for 16S rRNA gene sequences and aligned according to a Core Set of alignment templates. You can even upload a whole fasta genome and NAST will find, extract, and align the 16S rRNA genes for you. Additionally, Simrank (an N-mer comparison tool) will be used to find nearest-neighbors (non-chimeric) as well as nearest-isolates for each of your sequences from the entire Greengenes database...

- ChromDB: The Plant Chromatin Database: The mission of ChromDB is to bring together information on homologs of chromatin-associated proteins encoded by plant genomes, organize this information logically and in a comparative manner across species (with reference to other eukaryotes to the extent possible), and make it readily accessible to any members of the research and teaching communities who might be interested in the role played by chromatin proteins in the control of gene expression and genome organization. Our first priority is to provide (a) complete sets of genes encoding chromatin-associated proteins (CAPs) for those plant species with complete or near-complete genome sequences (currently Arabidopsis and rice, with poplar to be displayed in the future), (b) the best available splicing models and predicted protein sequences for these genes, and (c) a molecular phylogenetic context for understanding the evolutionary diversification of these protein families during plant evolution with reference to animal and fungal homologs. Our next priorities will be to identify and present CAP genes in all available EST and partial genomic sequences of other plant species, as well as to provide information regarding their biochemical, developmental, physiological, and cellular functions through a community annotation mechanism.

- Euchromatin Network: Euchromatin is that portion of the genome that is most active in gene transcription within the animal cell nucleus. It is in marked contrast to heterochromatin, which is the least active. And yet, either form of chromatin can be converted to the other, conversion to euchromatin being associated with new gene activation for RNA synthesis, and conversion to heterochromatin being associated with new gene repression for RNA synthesis. // Together with the Euchromatin Network, we are developing forums on all aspects of euchromatin, its composition, activity, control, and significance. We welcome your comments and suggestions in the design of these forums, and your participation in their on-going discussions.

- Human Genome Project: The Human Genome Project (HGP) was one of the great feats of exploration in history - an inward voyage of discovery rather than an outward exploration of the planet or the cosmos; an international research effort to sequence and map all of the genes - together known as the genome - of members of our species, Homo sapiens. Completed in April 2003, the HGP gave us the ability to, for the first time, to read nature\'s complete genetic blueprint for building a human being.

Currently, it provides access to hundreds of GSMs and pathways that can be interactively compared (two or more), analysed (e.g. detection of dead-end metabolites and reactions, flux balance analysis or simulation of reaction and gene knockouts), manipulated and exported. Users can also upload their own metabolic models, choose to automatically map them into the common namespace and subsequently make use of the website’s functionality.
