Enhanced RNAi library available from Source BioScience

The C.elegans RNAi library has been extended with 3,507 new supplementary bacterial clones and now targets around 87% of currently annotated C.elegans genes. Purchase the complete set of all clones or individual chromosome sets (I, II, III, IV, V and X) which include the pre-existing and new supplemental strains. The complete supplementary sets of RNAi clones and individual chromosome suplementary sets (I, II, III, IV, V and X) are also available to order for those who have previously purchased the pre-existing library.

Order now to complete your sets.

OpenWorm Browser launches; explore C. elegans in 3D

Cell identification and anatomical studies just got easier with the first release of the OpenWorm Browser from the OpenWorm Project. Zoom, rotate, and browse your way through C. elegans anatomy. Peel away layers to reveal concealed structures. Trace the connectivity of the nervous system. You really should check it out.

ModENCODE Data Access Webinar, Feb 2nd, 2012

The next webinar held by the Data Coordination Center for modENCODE is scheduled for Thursday Feb 2, 12:00 EST. Topic: “Using modENCODE tools: GBrowse and modMINE”. This webinar will discuss the web tools for data retrieval and analysis – data mining interface (modMINE) and genome browser (GBrowse) — both accessible via mod.encode.org. Space is limited so advance registration is necessary. Please email [email protected] to reserve your spot. More details and the schedule are available on the modENCODE Wiki.

modENCODE Data Access Webinar: Dec 1st 2011

modENCODE Data Access Webinar, May 5, 12:00 EDT

Using GBrowse and modMINE to access modENCODE data
This online webinar will familiarize its participants with the data mining tools maintained by Data Coordination Center for modENCODE – GBrowse and modMINE. This session will show how to look at modENCODE data organized as Genome Browser tracks and how to extract data of interest using query system of modMINE. Space is limited so advance registration is necessary. Please email [email protected] to reserve your spot. More details and the schedule are available on the modENCODE wiki.
