Picture Curation
The immediate goal of picture curation is to be able to obtain images of gene expression data from the literature and individual laboratories and display them in the WormBase gene expression page.
- We want display images related to the temporal or spatial (e.g., tissue, subcellular, etc.) localization of any gene in a wild-type background with different data types
- Reporter gene analysis
- Antibody staining
- In situ hybridization
- RT-PCR
- Western or Northern blot data

- DB_info -> links to entity in other database add following databases to database.ace
Molecule curation
Drug-phenotype curation
Molecules will be linked to genes based on their influence on gene activity altered by variation, overexpression, and RNAi-based knockdown.
Drug-gene interactions
Molecules will also be linked to genes through their influence on gene activity directly through gene regulation interactions.
Molecule databases
Molecule IDs will be provided, when available, for the following databases:
- Database "NLM_MeSH" "UID"
- Database "CTD" "ChemicalID"
- Database "ChemIDplus" using the CasRN
- Database "ChEBI" "CHEBI_ID"
- Database "KEGG COMPOUND" "ACCESSION_NUMBER"
Molecule list
Initially, we will be using MeSH UIDs, assigned by the NLM, as IDs for the molecules in our database. Due to the more comprehensive coverage of the NLM molecules, and the fact that it is more stably funded, this source was thought to be a good starting point for this project. The list we are starting with is a pared down list of molecules from the NLM, that was created by the Comparative Toxicogenomic Database (CTD), which contains over 130,000 terms. For each term, this list contains a term name, CTD ID, MeSH UID, and where available CAS Registry Numbers. Using the CasRNs, we extracted the ChEBI ID from the Chemical Entities of Biological Interest database entity list, where it existed, along with any KEGG Compound accession number.
