Xenopus Informatics

Abstract

The many advantages of the Xenopus experimental system for investigating vertebrate development are limited by the small number of database resources that exist to support this work. This deficit also affects the usefulness of Xenopus data to researchers using other model organism systems. A number of database resources are available, and the applicability of these resources to Xenopus researchers is described. The power of relational databases is also explored as well as the methods that are being used by Xenbase to build an object-relational database that allows users to integrate data from multiple sources, such as literature, gene sequence, sequence annotation and gene expression.

New insights on Pediatric Tumors and Associated Cancer Predisposition Syndromes

Because of the broad spectrum of children cancer susceptibility, the diagnosis of cancer risk syndromes in children is rarely used in direct cancer treatment. The field of pediatric cancer genetics and genomics will only continue to expand as a result of increasing use of genetic testing tools. It's possible that ...read more
