Pathogen Portal. About the Pathogen Portal The Pathogen Portal supports and links to five Bioinformatics Resource Centers (BRCs).

Pathogen Portal

Each BRC specializes in a different group of pathogens, focusing on, but not limited to, pathogens causing (Re-)Emerging Infectious Diseases, and those in the NIAID Category A-C Priority Pathogen lists for biodefense research. The scope of the BRCs also includes Invertebrate Vectors of Human Disease. In addition to supporting, and serving as an entryway to, the BRCs, the Pathogen Portal's scientific focus is integrating host-response data that span the pathogens and vectors supported by the BRCs, thereby moving towards an integrative view of Host-Pathogen-Environment interactions, also known as the Disease Triangle.

First discussed in the public literature in 1999 (Nuwaysir et al., 1999), toxicogenomics was first described as a term to illustrate the integration of toxicological research with the emerging new technologies designed to broadly interrogate the functional genome (i.e., RNA, protein, metabolite profiling, and polymorphisms/functional DNA mutations).

The Evolution of Bioinformatics in Toxicology: Advancing Toxicogenomics

Since then, there has been a steady adoption of the principles and technologies relevant to toxicogenomics throughout academic and industry laboratories, and there have been many scientific advances in various toxicology-related disciplines since. Examples of the integration of the technology within toxicological research will be highlighted in this review.
