1. Curatorial Procedures at Mouse Genome Informatics with an Emphasis on Expression Data Constance M. Smith The Jackson Laboratory Bar Harbor, ME

2. Mouse Genome Informatics www.informatics.jax.org Mouse Genome Database Gene Expression Database Mouse Genome Sequencing Project Mouse Tumor Biology Database Gene Ontology Consortium Genotype Objective: Facilitate the use of the mouse as a model for human biology by furthering our understanding of the relationship between genotype and phenotype. PhenotypeExpression

3. Gene detail page summarizes information in MGI

4. Gene Expression Database (GXD) Most data obtained via manual curation Emphasis on embryonic expression data Assay types stored are: –In situ: RNA in situ, immunohistochemistry, reporter gene (knock in) –Gels/blots: RT-PCR, Northerns, Westerns, RNase protection, Nuclease S1 –cDNA source data

5. Principles guiding curation of expression data 1.Different types of expression data are integrated 2.Expression patterns are described using controlled vocabularies 3.Context is provided by integration with other databases

6. Literature Curation at MGI

7. As of 10/23/03: 32,257 records 8,904 references 5,590 genes Up to date Complete from early 1990s to the present

8. As of 10/23/03: 118,576 results 10,329 assays 2,913 genes

9. Data entered using customized interface

10. The Anatomical Dictionary—essential to integration

11. Allele detail Link to images

12. Image storage allows users to analyze primary data
