| 12/30 | OB-R Clone |
Announcement: Mouse and human leptin receptors (OB-R) cloned. |
| 12/22 | Human BRCA2 Gene |
Announcement: Human BRCA2 gene cloned. |
| 12/06 | Taxonomy Web Browser |
Taxonomy Web browser available. NCBI
has created a phylogenetic classification system for the approximately
16,000 organisms thus far represented in GenBank and other sequence databases.
The taxonomic structure can be viewed through a
Web browser by simply
clicking on taxa names. At the same time, you can retrieve DNA or protein
sequences for any node. Information is also available about the resources
used to build and maintain the taxonomy: books, journals, databases, and
a panel of taxonomic experts. |
| 11/30 | OMIM |
NCBI now provides WWW access to
OMIM
(Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man), an electronic version of
Dr. Victor McKusick's catalog of human genes and genetic disorders. |
| 11/24 | UniGene |
UniGene (Unique Human Gene Sequence Collection) organizes human GenBank
sequences into "clusters" that represent distinct genes. These clusters
are being used to develop a transcription map of the genome. |
| 11/06 | SQL Access to dbEST |
SQL access to dbEST available. |
| 10/04 | BankIt 2.2 |
Released Version 2.2 of the
BankIt submission tool, which clarifies the way submitter
information is included in the record(s) and prompts the submitter for
coding sequence intervals (CDS) that can be added if the submitter
knows this information. |
| 10/02 | Molecular Modeling Database (MMDB) |
WWW Entrez now includes the Molecular Modeling Database (MMDB) of
3-dimensional protein structures. Using the RasMol or Kinemage
structure-viewing programs (both available at no cost), you can view these
structures directly from your Web browser. See
the WWW Entrez homepage
for details. |
| 09/27 | User Comments Form |
New form for user comments. |
| 09/22 | XREFdb Expanded |
XREFdb, the
research project devoted to cross-referencing the genetics of model
organisms with mammalian phenotypes and accelerating the identification
of genes mutated in human disease states, has recently been expanded.
The database now accepts protein queries from any organism and
automatically performs monthly protein and EST BLAST searches for your
queries of interest. XREFdb tracks matches that have been previously
reported to you and automatically flags new matches for your
inspection. This research project is funded by The National Center for
Human Genome Research (1 R01 HG00971). |
| 07/28 | Haemophilus influenzae |
Announcement:
Haemophilus influenzae complete genome. |
| 07/10 | Full Text of NCBI Papers |
New section:
Full text of selected NCBI staff papers. |
| 06/23 | Ataxia-Telangiectasia Gene |
Announcement:
Ataxia-Telangiectasia gene cloned. |
| 05/09 | BankIt with Update Feature |
New version of the
BankIt submission tool was released that allows authors of GenBank
records to make updates via BankIt. |
| 05/05 | XREFdb Available |
XREFdb is accessible.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae proteins are searched monthly vs.
dbEST, and the most significant ESTs matched are being systematically placed
on the mouse and human chromosomal maps, potentially establishing connections
between yeast genes and mapped mammalian phenotypes (e.g., human disease).
If you establish an XREFdb account, new EST matches and relevant EST mapping
and mammalian phenotype information will be reported to you each month for
queried S. cerevisiae proteins of interest. |
| 04/21 | NCBI News |
March 1995 issue of the NCBI News
now available. Back issues to be added. |
| 02/28 | HMG-1 Box Protein |
Research on the HMG-1 box protein family and homology model building of the HMG-1 box structural
domain. |
| 02/14 | Histone Proteins Research |
Research on histone
proteins and the histone fold motif. |
| 02/10 | Merck-Funded Human Genome |
Announcement:
GenBank releases first installment of Merck-funded human gene sequences. |
| 02/06 | BankIt Announced |
A new GenBank submissions tool, called
BankIt, is now
available. It allows direct submissions to GenBank using a Web browser. |
| 01/12 | NCBI Web Page Reorganized |
New graphics and reorganization for NCBI Web page. |
| 01/12 | Table of Inherited Disease Genes |
A table of inherited disease genes identified by positional cloning
providing links to GenBank records, OMIM entries, and information on sequence
complexity. |
Revised: June 6, 2002.
