Distribution Policies of the CardioGenomics PGA



Microarray Data:

Microarray data is released 60 days after completion of the last hybridization of an individual experiment, and after the data pass our quality control standards. In cases where the quality control criteria are not met, individual microarray experiments are repeated at highest priority as soon as the biological material becomes available in order to complete the study. All available microarray data is posted on the CardioGenomics website. The progress for individual experiments can be reviewed at http://cardiogenomics.med.harvard.edu/groups/proj1/pages/progress.html. This page is updated quarterly.

Mouse Models:

The normal (wild type) mice used by this PGA are available commercially. Distribution of knockout and transgenic mouse models developed by CardioGenomics is handled on a case by case basis. If you are interested in obtaining mice from the CardioGenomics PGA please contact Martina Schinke in the Animal Models Center.

SNP, Genotyping and Mutation Data:

Candidate SNPs are uploaded to the CardioGenomics website within 30 days of validation. All validated SNPs are also submitted to dbSNP. SNPs are generally first genotyped in multigenerational CEPH pedigrees to reconstruct haplotypes. The genotype data and the haplotype reconstructions are placed on the website within 60 days of generating the genotype data. A subset of SNPs (see overview) are then genotyped in the Framingham cohort; allele and haplotype frequencies in this cohort are placed on the website within 60 days of generating the genotype data. All data must pass and quality control standards before being posted on the CardioGenomics website.

The results page for the sarcomere mutation screen is updated upon sequencing all exons of one gene for a panel of 32 DNA samples (probands). Mutations that are discovered are reported on the website within 60 days. All mutation data must pass quality control standards before being posted.

Physiology Data:

Data will be released within 30 days of collection, and onceall quality control criteria have been meet. All raw signals for mouse physiology will be stored on the PhysioNet website. Summary data and methodology can be found on the CardioGenomics site in the Project 1 section.

cDNA Clones:

To request cDNA clones please contact Joshua LaBaer at the Harvard Institute of Proteomics. Click here for a list of completed clones.
