  • 1. 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
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. 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.
  • 8. 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.
  • 10. 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.
  • 11. 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.
  • 12. FINDbase Worldwide
  • An online repository of information about the frequency of different mutations leading to inherited disorders in various populations around the globe.
  • 13. 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.
  • 14. 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.
  • 15. Gene Reviews
  • GeneReviews are expert-authored, peer-reviewed, current disease descriptions that apply genetic testing to the diagnosis, management, and genetic counseling of patients and families with specific inhe
  • 16. GeneCards
  • GeneCards is an integrated database of human genes that includes automatically-mined genomic, proteomic and transcriptomic information, as well as orthologies, disease relationships, SNPs, gene expression, gene function, and service links for ordering assays and antibodies.
  • 18. GeneTests
  • Managed by the NIH, GeneTests provides publicly funded medical genetics information resource developed for physicians, other healthcare providers, and researchers.
  • 19. GeneTests' Gene Reviews - GeneClinics
  • GeneReviews are expert-authored, peer-reviewed, current disease descriptions that apply genetic testing to the diagnosis, management, and genetic counseling of patients and families with specific inherited conditions. Many genetic counselors use Gene Reviews every day.
  • 20. Genetic Alliance – Disease InfoSearch
  • Disease InfoSearch contains info on advocacy support groups related to specific genetic conditions, information about the clinical features of a wide number of genetic conditions, updates on management, treatment and more. Information is provided the advocacy organizations which form Genetic Alliance.
