GeneCards is a searchable, integrated, database of human genes that provides concise genomic related information, on all known and predicted human genes.
Provides "information and resources in the area of newborn screening and genetics to benefit health professionals, the public health community, consumers and government officials."

Project goals were to identify all the approximately 20,500 genes in human DNA, determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA, store this information in databases, improve tools for data analysis, transfer related technologies to the private sector, and address the ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) that may arise from the project.
NCBI - National Center for Biotechnology Information
NCBI provides several genomic biology tools and resources, including organism-specific pages that include links to many web sites and databases relevant to that species.
OMIM is a comprehensive, authoritative, and timely compendium of human genes and genetic phenotypes. It contains information on all known mendelian disorders and over 12,000 genes, focusing on the relationship between phenotype and genotype.
Formerly known as Entrez: The Life Sciences Search Engine. GQuery is a retrieval system produced by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) allows for searching in several linked databases including: biomedical journal literature (PubMed), a nucleotide sequence database (GenBank), a protein sequence database, three-dimensional macromolecular structures, complete genome assemblies, population study data sets (PopSet), organisms in GenBank (Taxonomy), and Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), on one page rather than each database individually.
The database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP) was developed to archive and distribute the results of studies that have investigated the interaction of genotype and phenotype.
Gene integrates information from a wide range of species. A record may include nomenclature, Reference Sequences (RefSeqs), maps, pathways, variations, phenotypes, and links to genome-, phenotype-, and locus-specific resources worldwide.
The Protein database is a collection of sequences from several sources, including translations from annotated coding regions in GenBank, RefSeq and TPA, as well as records from SwissProt, PIR, PRF, and PDB. Protein sequences are the fundamental determinants of biological structure and function.
