Primarysources date October 2007 The Baylor College of Medicine Human GenomeSequencing Center BCM HGSC was established by Richard Gibbs biologist Richard A. Gibbs in 1996 when BCM was chosen as one of six worldwide sites to complete the final phase of the International Human GenomeProject . Gibbs is the current director of the BCM HGSC. It occupies more than convert 36000 sqft m2 , employs over 200 staff, including eighteen faculty, and is one of three National Institutes of Health funded genome centers that were involved in the completion of the first Human Genome Sequence in 2004. The BCM HGSC contributed approximately 10 percent of the total project by sequencing Chromosomes 3, 12 and X. The BCM HGSC collaborated with researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy s Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and Celera Genomics to sequence the first species of Drosophilidae fruit fly , Drosophila melanogaster . The BCM HGSC also completed the second species of fruit fly Drosophila pseudoobscura , the honeybee Apis mellifera , and led an international consortium to sequence the Brown Norway rat. The Human GenomeSequencing Center subsequently sequenced and annotated the genome of the cow Bos taurus , the sea urchin , Rhesus macaque, Tammar wallaby , Dictyostelium discoideum , and a number of bacteria that cause serious infection s Rickettsia typhi, Enterococcus faecium, Mannheimia Haemolytica , and Fusobacterium nucleatum .

The Fiocruz Genome Comparison Project is a collaborative effort involving Brazil s Oswaldo Cruz Institute and IBM s World Community Grid , designed to produce a database comparing the gene s from many genome s with each other using SSEARCH http helix.nih.gov docs gcg ssearch.html . The program SSEARCH performs a rigorous Smith Waterman algorithm Smith Waterman alignment between a protein sequence and another protein sequence, a protein database, a DNA or a DNA library. The nature of the computation in the project allows it to easily take advantage of distributed computing . This, along with the likely humanitarian benefits of the research, has led the World Community Grid a distributed computing grid that uses idle computer clock time to run the Fiocruz project. All products are in the public domain by contract with WCG. Description The problem is that a very large information body structural, functional, cross references, etc. is attached to protein database entries. Once entered the information is rarely updated or corrected. This annotation of predicted protein function is often incomplete, uses non standard nomenclature or can be incorrect when cross referenced from previous sometimes incorrectly annotated sequences. Additionally, many proteins composed of several structural and or functional domains are overlooked by automated systems. The comparative information today is huge when compared to the early days of genomics. A single error is compounded and then made complex. The Genome Comparison Project performs a complete pairwise comparison between all predicted protein ... as a reference repository for the annotator community.

orphan date August 2009 The Immunological GenomeProject ImmGen is a collaborative scientific research project that is currently building a gene expression microarray database for all characterized immune cells in the mouse. The overarching goal of the project is to computationally reconstruct the genetic regulatory network in immune cells. All data generated as part of ImmGen are made freely and publicly available. The ImmGen project began in 2008 as a collaboration between several immunology and computational biology laboratories across the United States. The project has several phases, and is expected to take about three years to complete. Currently, raw data from the first phase is being released as it is generated on www.ImmGen.org. Project Background A true understanding of cell differentiation in the immune system will require a general perspective on the transcripts that are present in each cell type of the adaptive and innate immune systems, and how these profiles evolve through cell differentiation or activation by immunogenic or tolerogenic ligands. This project aims to establish the roadmap of these transcriptional states. Gene expression microarray compendium The first aim of ImmGen is to generate a compendium of whole genome microarray datasets for nearly all characterized cell populations of the adaptive and innate immune systems in the mouse, at major stages of differentiation and activation. This effort is being carried out by a group of collaborating immunology research laboratories across the U.S. Each of the laboratories brings a unique expertise in a parrticular cell lineage, and all are all employing standardized procedures for cell sorting. The compendium of microarray data will include as many immunologically relevant cell types as possible, from ... representation of data Project participants from Brown University s Computer Sciences Department ... has profiled approximately 180 cell populations in the mouse.

The Epilepsy Phenome GenomeProject EPGP is a government funded study to identify gene s that influence the development of epilepsy and genes that affect the response to treatment. The study involves 25 major epilepsy centers and more than 150 scientists and clinical staff around the United States, Australia and Argentina. The goal is to create a repository of clinical and genetic information on a select group of patients with epilepsy. The hope is that this information will reveal new insights and improve diagnosis and treatment. EPGP is funded by the National Institutes of Health via http www.ninds.nih.gov The National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke NINDS . The long term goal of EPGP is to identify potential molecular targets that could be the basis of much more specific and effective treatments for patients who have epilepsy, and the prevention of epilepsy in those at risk. Background on Genes and Epilepsy Although heredity has been known since antiquity to cause epilepsy, the progress to date in identifying the genetic basis of epilepsy has been limited primarily to the discovery of single gene mutations that cause epilepsy in relatively rare families. For the more common types of epilepsy, heredity plays a subtler role, and it is thought that a combination of mutations in multiple genes likely determine an individual s susceptibility to seizures, as well as the responsiveness to antiepileptic medications. EPGP Phenotyping The approach to teasing apart the more complicated genetic factors in epilepsy requires a very large number of patients whose epilepsy has been extremely well characterized. EPGP investigators will be enrolling 3,750 patients and 3,000 controls over the course of the study. Details about seizure types, EEGs, imaging studies, and effects of treatment will be collected and archived in a central data repository, and all participants ....
