- 1. ABGC - American Board of Genetic Counseling
- * Establishes the standards of competence for clinical practice through accreditation of graduate programs in genetic counseling. Advances the role of genetic counselors in healthcare through the certification and recertification of qualified professionals.
- 2. ALFRED
- ALFRED is a free, web-accessible, curated compilation of allele frequency data on DNA sequence polymorphisms in anthropologically defined human populations. Data in ALFRED are linked to literature, molecular, and ethnographic databases
- 3. AlzGene database
- The AlzGene database aims to provide a comprehensive, unbiased and regularly updated collection of genetic association studies performed on Alzheimer’s disease phenotypes.
- 4. American Board of Genetic Counseling, Inc.
- Establishes the standards of competence for clinical practice through accreditation of graduate programs in genetic counseling. Advances the role of genetic counselors in healthcare through the certif
- 5. Announcements
- NCHPEG is an "organization of organizations" committed to a national effort to promote health professional education and access to information about advances in human genetics.
- 6. Blood Group Antigen Gene Mutation Database (dbRBC)
- NCBI. The Blood Group Antigen Gene Mutation Database (dbRBC) documents variations in genes that directly or indirectly affect blood groups. It thus is a locus-specific mutation database (LSDB) that covers multiple genes.
- 7. BTKbase: X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) | Main page |
- Search for information on defects in the Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene, which causes agammaglobulinemia (XLA). USE WITH CAUTION: DATABASE HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED SINCE 2008.
- 8. CarpeDB: A Comprehensive Database on the Genetics of Epilepsy
- CarpeDB serves as a novel source for epilepsy researchers by featuring scores of "epilepsy genes" and associated publications in one locus. Furthermore, multiple genes implicated in epilepsy are also implicated in other human disorders.
- 9. Center for Genetic Medicine - Northwestern University
- Northwestern University's Center for Genetic Medicine
- 10. CGAP and CGCI - Cancer Genome Anatomy Project & Cancer Genome Characterization Initiative
- The goal of the NCI's Cancer Genome Anatomy Project is to determine the gene expression profiles of normal, precancer, and cancer cells, leading eventually to improved detection, diagnosis, and treatment for the patient. Includes high-quality histology photos of tissue expression.
- 11. Chromosome abnormalities and genetic counseling / R.J. McKinlay Gardner, Grant R. Sutherland
- This is a print book. Click on the link for location information.
- 12. CINAHL
- CINAHL seaches nursing and allied health journal literature. Many of these indexed journals contain articles pertaining to genetic counseling.
- 13. Database of Genomic Variants
- A comprehensive summary of structural variation in the human genome.
- 14. dbGaP
- The database of Genotype and Phenotype (dbGaP) was developed to archive and distribute the results of studies that have investigated the interaction of genotype and phenotype. Such studies include genome-wide association studies, medical sequencing, molecular diagnostic assays, as well as association between genotype and non-clinical traits.
- 15. Developmental biology
- NCBI online book focusing on the cell and molecular mechanisms of development
- 16. DG-CST Database
- A collection of conserved sequence elements, identified by a systematic genomic sequence comparison between a set of human genes involved in the pathogenesis of genetic disorders and their murine (mouse) counterparts.
- 17. ENCODE Project at UCSC
- Browser and portal for NHGRI's ENCODE project. This is the official repository of sequence-related data for the ENCODE Consortium and supports the coordination of data submission, storage, retrieval, and visualization.
- 18. FINDbase Worldwide
- An online repository of information about the frequency of different mutations leading to inherited disorders in various populations around the globe.
- 19. G2D: Candidate Genes to Inherited Diseases
- The Genes2Diseases server presents precomputed candidate genes for more than 600 genetically inherited diseases that have been mapped onto chromosomal regions without assignment of a particular gene.
- 20. GenAtlas
- GENATLAS contains relevant information with respect to gene mapping and genetic diseases. GENATLAS is structured in three databases: Genes database, Phenotypes database, Citations database (linked to the two previous). The information is collected from published literature.
