The ldb program generates an integrated map (known as the summary map) from partial maps of physical, genetic, regional, somatic hybrid, mouse homology and cytogenetic data. <http://cedar.genetics.soton.ac.uk/public_html/> 3 | Cell Biology Laboratory Manual by William H. Heidcamp / Gustavus Adolphus College, Saint Peter, Minnesota, USA is now online: Manual, Registration (E-mail address). <http://www.gac.edu/cgi-bin/user/~cellab/phpl?index-1.html> 4 | Molecular Vision is a peer-reviewed Web journal dedicated to the dissemination of research results in molecular and cell biology and genetics of the visual system (ocular and cortical). <http://www.cc.emory.edu/MOLECULAR_VISION/> 5 | GDB -- Web Server Mirror Sites: Australia - http://morgan.angis.su.oz.au/gdb/docs/gdbhome.html Australia - http://www.wehi.edu.au/gdb/docs/gdbhome.html France - http://www.infobiogen.fr/gdbwww/ Germany - http://gdbwww.dkfz-heidelberg.de/ Israel - http://inherit1.weizmann.ac.il/gdb/docs/gdbhome.html Japan - http://gdb.gdbnet.ad.jp/gdb/docs/gdbhome.html The Netherlands - http://www-gdb.caos.kun.nl/gdb/docs/gdbhome.html (Authorization Required) United Kingdom - http://www.hgmp.mrc.ac.uk/gdb/docs/gdbhome.html 6 | Medical Matrix is a database of hypertext, Internet linked clinical medicine resources. The goal of the Medical Matrix Project is to enhance patient care with global clinical medicine resources delivered to the point of care. This new version categorizes resources by diseases, specialties, interest areas, quick reference guides, comparison databases- images, procedures, techniques, learning modules, and interactive forums. More than 1000 new entries have been added since the January 1995 version. Medical Matrix offers annotations of resources, spotlights the more developed programs, and gives news and backround on Internet medical resource development. < http://www.siumed.edu:80/lib/matrix/> 7 | Gene Family Database is a prototype database of gene families in the human and mouse that contains both community contributed information and hypertext links to various biological databases ( PAX , Cytochrome P450 , Insulin including the Insulin-like growth factors , Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP, APPLP1, APPLP2), DNA repair proteins , ABC proteins ). < http://gdbdoc.gdb.org/~avoltz/home.html> 8 | The Immunology Today WWW Environment will act as a focus for providing access to the wealth of articles in Immunology Today Online, as well as providing a stepping stone to other Web sites of note for those with an interest in immunology. < http://www.elsevier.nl:80/freeinfo/immuno/itowww.htm> 9 | The DNA Vaccine Web is designed to give an introduction to DNA vaccines to the many immunologists and specialists in infectious diseases who are still somewhat unaware of this evolving field. On the site one will find protocols (that actually make the experiments work), control plasmids (given out freely) to validate one's own DNA-based immunizing technique, references (linked to their Medline abstract), press releases, and links to other relevant sites concerning immunology, infectious diseases and vaccines. < http://www.genweb.com/Dnavax/dnavax.html> 10 | BIOSUPPLYNET Cold Spring Harbor Lab Press introduces BIOSUPPLYNET-An online directory of biotech research products and services. This new WWW site offers free searching in the CSH Lab Manual Source Book database of 15,000 laboratory products and 1,400 suppliers. BIOSUPPLYNET features "Interactive Product Listings" (IPLs), which provide users with instant access to details on many of the products contained within its extensive database. BIOSUPPLYNET is updated weekly and provides: 1.) Information on new products and special offers 2.) Access to 15,000 laboratory product listings from over 1,400 suppliers 3.) An opportunity for users to share expertise through product user groups 4.) Immediate access to suppliers via email for technical queries and ordering information 5.) Links to more than 100 biology-relevant Web servers. BSN is accessible at: http://www.biosupplynet.com/bsn/ We would appreciate your evaluation of our site.
