- http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=Genome - The Entrez: Genomes database provides views for a variety of genomes, complete chromosomes, contiged sequence maps, and integrated genetic and physical maps. What makes Entrez more powerful than many services is that most of its records are linked to other records, both within a given database (such as Nucleotide) and between databases. Links within a database are called "neighbors" (e.g., Nucleotide neighbors). Limits are ways to restrict a search to a defined subset of the database. Limits can be set to restrict a search to a particular database field (e.g., the author field). Limits can be set to search everything but a particular type of data (e.g., exclude patent records). Alternatively, limits can be set to only search a particular type of data (e.g., Genomic RNA/DNA) or to only search data from a particular source (e.g., EMBL). Date limits and sequence length limits are also possible. You won't get more in-depth than this genome search, people. Try it out, but don't be sad if you don't understand anything in it.
- http://www.ncgr.org/search.html - The National Center for Genome Resources gives you access to genetics software such as sequence viewers and flatfile retrieval, and it also contains links to other genetics resources.
- http://ars-genome.cornell.edu/search.html - The ARS Genome Database Resource is primarily a site for communication of plant genome data among scientists worldwide. The medium is a set of genome databases, similar to the ones for human genome mapping and sequencing.
- http://vector.cshl.org/ - The DNA Learning Center is your source for timely information about genes in education. The DNA Learning Center (DNALC) is the world's first science center devoted entirely to public genetics education and is an operating unit of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, an important center for molecular genetics research. The DNALC extends the Laboratory's traditional research and postgraduate education mission to the college, precollege, and public levels.
- http://www.gdb.org/ - The Genome Database (GDB) is the official central repository for genomic mapping data resulting from the Human Genome Initiative. The Human Genome Initiative is a worldwide research effort to analyze the structure of human DNA and determine the location and sequence of the estimated 100,000 human genes. GDB's mission is to make available to scientists an encyclopedia of the human genome that is being constantly revised and updated to reflect the current state of scientific knowledge.
- http://www.atgenetics.com/genetics/ - Technically, @Genetics.com is a health/medical portal, but it gives you access to a genetics and molecular biology web search.
- http://library.thinkquest.org/28599/ - Gene School '99 is a comprehensive, educational site exploring the fascinating innovations and discoveries of genetic science. Begin your journey through the world of genetics using the search engine or simply by browsing through a topic; either way, you will find that genetic science is an exciting field. This is an excellent site for young people to gain an understanding of the basics of genetics.
- http://www.geneletter.com/index.epl - GeneLetter is the leading online magazine of genetics, society and culture. Their site offers daily news and monthly features that explore the scientific, medical and bioethical issues surrounding genetics.
- http://www.askme.com/ - Students, you're gonna love this one. If you have an extra credit question in genetics that you just can't figure out, simply ask one of the real live experts at Askme.com: Genetics. They can provide you with a very good answer fairly quickly. Why do your own work when other people can do it for you?
- http://vector.cshl.org/dnaftb/ - DNA From the Beginning is a high quality tutorial that covers the basics of DNA, genes, and heredity. There is an in-site search engine to find the tutorial for the specific topic you're looking for.
- http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/taxonomyhome.html/ - The NCBI Taxonomy Database allows you to input the name of any animal into its search engine, and then you can view as much of the genome as has been discoverd for that animal. Very interesting to browse through.
- http://www.ornl.gov/TechResources/Human_Genome/links.html - The Human Genome Project Information website specializes in information on the Human Genome Project, but it also contains an extensive array of links to the genetic world. It's a good starting point for anyone interested in the study of genetics.
- http://www.ornl.gov/TechResources/Human_Genome/vl.html - Here at Virtual Library: Genetics you'll find numerous links to genetics websites, alphabetized by organism.
- http://209.52.56.28/lexicon/index.html - Here you go: one site that lists just about every genetics term there is. The Genomics Lexicon will help you figure out what all those confusing words mean.
- http://gslc.genetics.utah.edu/ - The Genetic Science Learning Center helps people understand how genetics affects their lives and society as a whole. This is a very informative website, containing sections devoted to teachers, students, and parents. If you're a student looking for a research project, you're likely to find it here if you take a look around.
