Phase II: Reaching out to the Participating Investigators


Bioinformatics (core B) need your help and feedback:


Major objectives
  • Complete integration of the CFG data with specialty databases, complete with user friendly interfaces that facilitate access to data and exploring the paradigms of glycan binding proteins
  • Add functionality to current interfaces:
  •    - Allow searching of gene microarray data and GT database with gene accession numbers
       - Integrate results of MALDI and MS/MS data to include/confirm branching and linkage information
       - Add SymAtlas-type interface to compare gene expression data across experiments


    Needed from Participating Investigators
  • Uploading data (e.g. tables/figures, publications) relating to CFG resources using new PI data upload interface
  • Help with annotation of databases (e.g. GBP database)


  • Send your suggestions/feedback to either core director Rahul Raman or core coordinator Ram Sasisekharan


    Other suggestions:
    • Synthesis of compounds for mammalian and pathogen glycan arrays library, N-linked and O-linked glycan standards synthesis by Glycan Array Synthesis (Core D)
    • Pathogen Glycans for the pathogen glycan microarray (Core H)
    • KO targets for Mouse Transgenic (Core F)
    • Mentors for KO mice being phenotyped by (Core G)
    • Pure human and murine cell populations for glycomics profiling (Core C)
    • Gene expression analysis (Core E)
    • Annotation of glycan binding protein molecule pages for the CFG database (Core B)
