Featured Resource: MitoCarta
MitoCarta is a comprehensive online inventory of mammalian mitochondrial genes published by the Broad Institute. Eli and Edythe Broad, together with Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, founded the Broad Institute in 2003. This molecular genetics database provides a foundation for investigations of mitochondria and mitochondrial dysfunctions which have been associated with a variety of human diseases.
MitoCarta contains three datasets: Mouse MitoCarta (evidence of mitochondrial protein localization and protein distribution across 14 tissues); Human MitoCarta (evidence of mitochondrial protein localization and protein distribution across 14 tissues), and GFP localization (images of 131 protein with mitochondrial localzation assessed by GFP tagging and microscopy). In addition to viewing the above datasets, users may also download the datasets in various formats.
