 Collaborative data area:
This page contains some of the on-going and/or published projects that the CBRG have produced in collaboration
with members of the Medical Sciences Division at Oxford University.
It is intended that these pages will provide a valuable data resource for CBRG account holders as well
as the wider scientific community.

It is recommended that alignments are viewed in Jalview and tree files in Dendroscope.
See the paper for details on construction of alignments and trees.
MIAA - Minimum Information about Anatomy
Description: MIAA is a controlled vocabulary whose terms and IDs can be used to annotate tissue-associated data.
MIAA is in obo format and can be read in the Oboedit and COBrA browsers.
The controlled vocabulary contains about 400 tissue and timeline terms that cover all the major taxa. All terms are annotated with the IDs and synonyms of any equivalent term in the 20 or
so anatomy ontologies included on the OBO site.
Download a more detailed introduction and some screenshots. 
Download the MIAA obo format file.

Mouse Immunorray
Description: These pages provide background information for a mouse oligonucleotide-based
microarray containing probes for a targeted set of immune-related genes. As well
as providing information on possible false-positive hybridizations to facilitate proper validation of experimental observations,
it also provides links to the target genes for each of the probes on the array.
Reference: Description of a microarray targeted to genes important in mouse immune responses and
differentiation. (in preparation).
Differential gene expression analysis
Description: Differential gene expression analysis using cDNA libraries has been improved by
the introduction of an accurate method of assigning ESTs to genes and a novel maximum likelihood statistical scoring of differential
gene expression between two pools of cDNA libraries. A web tool employing these methods has been developed so that researchers can
design their own differential gene expression experiments.
As far as possible, each Human EST from all of the cDNA libraries at GenBank
has been assigned to a RefSeq gene or gene prediction based on the new Jake cluster algorithm so that any tissue of interest can be queried provided
cDNA libraries exist. The interface is similar to the SAGEmap
xProfiler tool where the user selects a pool of cDNA libraries in group A and compares with it a pool chosen in group B. The results
are returned to the user as a table, reporting the q-value and whether the gene is up or down regulated in pool A.

Visualisation of quantitative biological data on genomes using Apollo
As part of his Bioinformatics MSc project at Oxford University, Salman
Sheikh (supervised by the CBRG) has developed an extension to Apollo
that allows histogram data to be uploaded and visualised.
