General

NCBI: The National Center for Biotechnology Information provides resources for molecular biology in the form of searchable databases for publications, nucleotides, proteins, genomes, structures, evolutionary relatedness , taxonomy, Mendelian Inheritance in Man and books .

Model Organisms for Biomedical Research is an NIH site with links to mammalian (rat and mouse), non-mammalian (S. cerevisiae, D. discoideum, C. elegans, D. melanogaster, D. rerio, Xenopus) and other model organims for biomedical research.

Mouse / Genetic Resources

Mutant Mouse Regional Resource Centers This is a National Network of regional breeding and distribution facilties ("Nodes") which ensures continued availability of valuable, genetically engineered mice for the investigation of human and animal biology and disease.The MMRRC is a collaborative effort, funded by grants from the National Center for Research Resources NIH.

Trans NIH Mouse Initiative This site provides a central information resource for the Trans-NIH Mouse Genomics and Genetics Resources Coordinating Group, developed by the NIH to develop priorities for mouse genomic and genetic resources.

Rodent Resources: The Whole Mouse Catalog web site serves as a central place to find numerous Internet resources of particular interest to scientific researchers using mice or rats in their work. This resource was formerly the Mouse and Rat Research Home Page, which was located at CalTech.

Genome KnowledgeBase is a collection of mini-reviews in the field of basic molecular biology. It is extensively linked to genome database in the United States and Europe. The project is a joint collaboration amoung COld Spring Harbor Laboratory, The European Bioinformatics Institute and The Gene Ontology Consortium.

NIA Mouse cDNA Project: Part of the Developmental Genomics and Aging Section of the Laboratory of Genetics, Nationa Institute on Aging, NIH.

Gene knockout/Transgenic Mice NIAID exchange program: Exchange program organized by the National Institue of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to develop immunologically-related, gene-targeted mouse strains. Five such strains are currently available and can be viewed at this site or the general NIH NIAID Reagent Repository

COGENE; The Craniofacila and oral gene expression network is a consortium of investigators involved in describing human gene expression changes that occur during early stages of development with particular emphsis on craniofacila development. This project is funded by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacila Research

Mouse genetic resource site of the Mouse Genome project of Baylor College of Medicine.

This is the site for the UK Medical Research Council Mouse Sequencing Program

Protein Resources

A motif based profile scanning approach for genome-wide predition of signaling pathways. The Scansite searches for motifs within proteins that are likely to be phosphorylated by specific protein kinase or bind to domains such as SH2 domains, 143-3 domains or PDZ domains. Optimal phosphorylation sites for particular protein ser/Thr kinases or protein-tyr kinases are predicted using the matrix selectivity values for amino acids at each position relative to the phosphorylation site as determine from the oriented peptide library technique described by Songyang et al 1994 (Current Biology 4, 973-982) and Songyand et al 1995 (Nature 337 535-539).

Antibodies/Probes

There are a myriad of companies providing research antibodies and services. Here we provide links to several online resources for these companies and links to companies producing antibodies relevant specifically to migration research. However, please realize this is not an exhaustive list of all such companies and citation of a company is in no way an endorsement.

The Antibody Resource Page provides an online resource for information on antibodies for both research and educators.

Miscellaneous

SuperArray manufacturers Source for array technology with " Common Diseases" specific arrays including an array for Human Extracellular Matrix & Adhesion Molecules.

Dynamic Cell Imaging Web site This site is designed to provide links to laboratories, imaging facilities and people involved in Dynamic Cell Imaging. Access is free but you need to registered to get access.
