The EMBRACE Service Registry is a collection of life-science web services with built-in service testing.

This site is a prelude to the internationally supported BioCatalogue system that will collect, store, validate, and make available web-services in the biosciences. This registry is mainly meant for the EU projects EMBRACE, BioSapiens and ENFIN, but other users are welcome too. As a potential web service user, you can search or browse the registry for services that match your needs. Furthermore, each entry includes live test data, showing the current and historical status of the service. Each entry can also include example client software to help you include them in your own programs or workflows. As a service provider, the registry helps you build high quality services that conform to industry standards, and gives you a means of advertising your tools to the user community as well as a platform for testing your service. Your service remains your property and published by you - this registry merely advertises its existence and its status.

This system will in due time merge seamlessly into the BioCatalogue, and if you use this registry, you will not have to register your service again with the BioCatalogue.

ProDomCG_evoscen

PASSED

ProdomCG_evoscen is a set of webservices allowing to browse ProDom-CG267 evolutionary scenarios. It includes

  • GetScenarioProdom : takes an ProDom-CG family (CG + 6 characters) and returns its evolutionary scenario as a string of (number of nodes) characters (absence = 1, presence = 2)
  • GetPresentFamiliesProdom : takes a taxID present in ProdomCG and returns a list of ProdomCG families present at this node

ProDomCG_tree

PASSED

ProdomCG_tree is a set of webservices allowing to browse ProDom-CG267 phylogenetic tree. It includes

  • NearestNodeProdom : takes an NCBI taxID and returns the closest taxID present in ProdomCG
  • GetParentProdom : takes a taxID present in ProdomCG and returns its parent
  • GetChildProdom : takes a taxID present in ProdomCG and returns its child(ren)
  • GetDFStreeProdom : returns the list of all the taxIDs present in ProdomCG in DFS order

WSxVO_BAMS_Features - Annotations for rat brain gene expression from BAMS

Visual Genomics:

The first part of the project is based on the Edinburgh Mouse Atlas Project (EMAP). This project has been working for more than a decade in the creation of a digital atlas of mouse development and a database that spatially maps in situ gene expression (EMAGE database). Visual Genomics project tries to bring together the multidimensional imaging and the genomics fields to provide an integrated system.
