Home About T1DBase
|
T1DBase is a web based resource focused on the genetics and genomics of type 1 diabetes susceptibility (T1D). Our mission is to provide a curated and
integrated set of datasets and tools, across multiple species, to support and promote research in this area. The current data scope includes annotated genomic sequences for suspected T1D susceptibility regions; genetic data; microarray data; functional annotation of genes active in beta cells; and "global" datasets, generally from the literature, that are useful for genetics and systems biology studies. The site also includes software tools for analyzing the data. Current software tools can be found on the navigation bar on the right. T1DBase is the result of a collaboration among the Institute for Systems Biology, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation/Wellcome Trust Diabetes and Inflammation Laboratory, the Computational Biology and Informatics Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania, and the Type 1 Diabetes Genetics Consortium. This resource is maintained by the T1DBase team. T1DBase is funded by the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International, the Wellcome Trust, and the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK). |
