RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Rat Genome Database RGD Dean Pasko Norie de la Cruz

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Rat Genome Database is a NIH funded project  NHLBI (grant HL64541)  Database went public on June 1, 2000 RGD’s mission statement: “RGD curates and integrates all rat genetic and genomic data and provides access to this data to support research using the rat as a genetic model to study human diseases.” RGD Background

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 RGD’s curation and integration involves many processes: Manual curation of literature Informatic curation/validation of both curated and non-curated data loaded into the database Leveraging of comparative genomic and functional data to annotate rat data RGD Background

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Rat offers many resources for comparative genomics Rat is a great model organism for human disease RGD has tools to relate phenotype and disease  Rat QTL data  Mouse QTL data  Human QTL data New genome sequence (Nature, April of 2004) Human and Mouse homolog data and reports Gene ontology data Phenotype ontology data Disease ontology data Comparative Genomics

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 RGD’s multi-species and comparative tools Advance/quick search  Comprehensive for rat data (annotations, ontologies, etc.)  Homologs - searches symbol and name and ontologies (coming soon!) Virtual Comparative Map (VCMap) – EST/Unigene based Gene Annotation – query tool for multiple databases for Rat, Mouse, and Human RGD’s genome browser GBrowse (GMOD open source tool) RGD object specific query tools Genes, QTLs, Strains, Ontologies, Homologs, etc. RGD Tools

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 The Gene Annotation Tool (GATool)

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Bioinformatics and biological databases bioinformatics is an oxymoron –biology is complex –informatics wants to abstract to general principles

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Bioinformatics and biological databases proliferation reflects complexity of biology classes of biological databases defined by NAR DB issue –major sequence repositories –gene expression –comparative genomics –gene identification and structure –genetic and physical maps –genomic databases –intermolecular interactions –metabolic pathways and cellular regulation –mutation database –pathology –model organism uncontrolled: so much data, so little time

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Bioinformatics and biological databases the needs of biological research –focus on particular phenomena disease organism toxin biomolecule –"omics" data needs to be pulled from various sources

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Bioinformatics and biological databases challenges –gather and collate data from various objects –link object data in one coherent package –provide some customizability in output –provide capability for user to do further analyses on output –allow link backs to original sources for more detailed study uses –hypothesis generation –knowledge base –data mining

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Implementation of Multiple Ontologies at the Rat Genome Database Ontologies are controlled vocabularies that order concepts in a hierarchical fashion Currently three ontologies are being used to annotate genes, QTLs, strains and homologs  Gene Ontology (GO) Component Function Process  Phenotype Ontology (PO)  Disease Ontology (DO)

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Implementation of Multiple Ontologies at the Rat Genome Database

RGD Demo ISMB Scotland 8/03/04 Implementation of Multiple Ontologies at the Rat Genome Database Multiple object type reports – genes, QTLs and strains – can be retrieved using terms for any of the ontologies used for annotations Multiple ontology reports can be accessed from the annotations associated with any particular object type Program for Genetic Application PhysGen - Physiogenomics of Stressors in Derived Consomic Rats 
