2. Outline General introduction and overview of complete genome sequences Genomes databases and where to find them Comparative Genomics Databases Other Omics resources Bibliographic/Open access resources

3. Why databases? In the genomic era we have billions of data that need to be stored, curated and made accessible for analysis and knowledge discovery Databases are essential resources for both experimental and computational biologists We have crossed the Terabyte threshold of genomic data (Huge, massive, explosion!)

4. Chronology of completely sequenced genomes 1977: first viral genome (5386 base pairs; encoding 11 genes). Sanger et al. sequence bacteriophage  X174. 1981: Human mitochondrial genome. 16,500 base pairs ( encodes 13 proteins, 2 rRNA, 22 tRNA ) 1986: Chloroplast genome. 156,000 base pairs (most are 120 kb to 200 kb)

BIOLOGICAL DATABASE CATEGORIES Databases of nucleic acid sequences (RNA, DNA) Databases of protein sequences Databases of protein motifs and protein domains Databases of structures Databases of genomes Databases of genes Databases of expression profiles Databases of SNPs and mutations Databases of metabolic pathways and protein associations Databases of taxonomy …

16. Can we find a list of ‘clean’ databases ?

17. The NAR Database issue The 2007 update includes 968 databases, 110 more than the previous one. 68 new databases updates of 106 existing databases The complete database list and summaries are available online on the Nucleic Acids Research web site http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/

18. NAR Database Category List Nucleotide Sequence Databases RNA sequence databases Protein sequence databases Structure Databases Genomics Databases (non-vertebrate) Metabolic and Signaling Pathways Human and other Vertebrate Genomes Human Genes and Diseases Microarray Data and other Gene Expression Databases Proteomics Resources Other Molecular Biology Databases Organelle databases Plant databases Immunological databases

20. Three type of Genome database Databases which collect data of all sequenced genomes (Entrez_Genomes; EBI_genomes) Databases which collect data of a category of organisms with sequenced genomes (Microbial Genomes at TIGR) Databases specific for one organism with sequenced genomes (Flybase, MGD, Ensembl)

21. Genome databases contain genomic information collected from many sources. – Genome assembly – Gene predictions – Known genes, mRNA, ESTs, proteins – Genetic maps, markers and polymorphisms – Gene expression and phenotypes – Annotations – Interspecies homologues What kind of information you find there?

22. Resources for genomes There are two main resources for genomes: EBIEuropean Bioinformatics Institute http://www.ebi.ac.uk/genomes/ NCBINational Center for Biotechnology Information http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Genomes/ But many others resources from sequencing Institutions: SangerThe welcome Trust Sanger Institute http://www.sanger.ac.uk/ TIGRThe Institute for Genomic Research http://cmr.tigr.org/tigr-scripts/CMR/shared/Genomes.cgi Genolevureshttp://cbi.labri.fr/Genolevures/index.phphttp://cbi.labri.fr/Genolevures/index.php

37. Maps and Options

45. Common features of genomic database Possibility to download all the sequences of the genome or part of them (chromosomes, clones, genes, CDS,..) Most of them have a corresponding protein resource (the set of proteins obtained by translating all CDS) Example: Entrez-Genome of the NCBI Genpept

46. Comparative Genomics databases

47. Comparative genomics Analyses of the genetic material of different species help understanding the similarity and differences between genomes, their evolution and the evolution of their genes. Intra-genomic comparisons help understanding the degree of duplication (genome regions; genes) and genes organization,... Inter-genomic comparisons help understanding the degree of similarity between genomes; degree of conservation between genes; understanding gene and genome evolution

57. Some considerations Organism specific databases can be more up-to-date than general databases Genome databases are not a one stop shop for all information, other databases like UniProt are still needed!

60. Bibliographic Databases and Open Access resources

61. Pubmed http://www.pubmed.org/ http://www.pubmed.org/ An access to more than 12 millions papers since 1950 (3790 jounals) Simple and advanced literature Search with keywords, author name, MESH terms, journals, single citation,.. Some papers are free from the journal website or through the editors

65. Pubmed central http://www.pubmedcenral.com/http://www.pubmedcenral.com/

67. Free access journals Authors pay to allow readers to get the papers free The BMC initiative The Plos initiative Other initiatives: some journals are giving immediate free online access and others after few (1-12) months from publication

68. Biomedcentral (BMC) http://www.biomedcentral.com/http://www.biomedcentral.com/

71. Highwire http://highwire.stanford.edu/ http://highwire.stanford.edu/

74. The HINARI initiative The Health InterNetwork Access to Research Initiative (HINARI) provides free or very low cost online access to the major journals in biomedical and related social sciences to local, not-for-profit institutions in developing countries. HINARI was launched in January 2002, with some 1500 journals from 6 major publishers. 22 additional publishers joined in May 2002, bringing the total number of journals to over 2000. Today more than 70 publishers are offering their content in HINARI and others will soon be joining the programme.
