  1. GDB Human Genome Database

    Unreferenced date November 2008 COI date November 2008 The GDB Human Genome Database was a community curated collection of human genomic data. What set GDB apart from other biological databases was its use of world class leaders in human genetics to act as curators for the data. In order to ensure a high degree of quality, records within GDB were subjected to a process of peer review , not unlike a traditional publication. Due to the International collaboration which made up the human genome project, GDB received funding from numerous sources in both Europe and Asia. History In 1989 the Howard Hughes Medical Institute provided funding to establish a central repository for human genetic map ping data. This project ultimately resulted in the creation of the GDB Human Genome DataBase in 1990. It was a key database in the Human Genome Project . Established under the leadership of Dr. s Peter L. Pearson Peter Pearson and Dick Lucier, GDB received significant financial support from the US Department of Energy and the National Institutes of Health . Located at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine , GDB became a source of high quality mapping data which were made available both on line as well as through numerous printed publications. In 1998, the change of focus in the human genome project redirected funds which were previously available for GDB. However that same year, Dr. A. Jamie Cuticchia obtained funding from Canadian public and private sources to continue the operations of GDB. While the data curation continued to be performed at Johns Hopkins, GDB central operations were moved to The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. In 2003 RTI International became the new host for GDB where it continued to be maintained as a public resource for high quality genetic and genomic information. On June 1, 2008 RTI International shut down GDB operations. External links DEFAULTSORT Gdb Human Genome Database Category Biological databases Biological database ...   more details

Gibbs in 1996 when BCM was chosen as one of six worldwide sites to complete the final phase of the International Human Genome Project . 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 Genome Sequencing 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 BCM HGSC was a major contributor to the Mammalian Gene Collection program, to sequence all human cDNAs, as well as the International Haplotype Mapping Project HapMap . Other research within the BCM HGSC includes new molecular technologies for mapping and sequencing, exploration of novel chemistries for DNA tagging, development of instrumentation for DNA manipulation ..., and analyzing genome data.

  1. Movie Genome

    The Movie Genome is an approach to indexing movies based on attributes in order to create movie catalogs with extensive, detailed data about each title. Description The Movie Genome concept is borrowed from the Human Genome Project , a scientific project to identify and map all human genes . Similarly, a Movie Genome, as used by semantic movie discovery engine Jinni discovery service Jinni ref cite web title Hands on Jinni, a polished movie recommendation service url http arstechnica.com web news 2009 01 hands on jinni a polished movie recommendation service.ars publisher ArsTechnica accessdate 2009 01 26 ref , identifies and indexes multiple genes elements and aspects of a movie. A comparable initiative is the Music Genome Project , intended to capture the essence of music at the fundamental level. The Music Genome technology is used by Pandora music service Pandora to play music for Internet users based on their preferences.
