The Rfam database is a collection of RNA families, each represented by multiple sequence alignments, consensus secondary structures and covariance models (CMs). The families in Rfam break down into three broad functional classes: Non-coding RNA genes, structured cis-regulatory elements and self-splicing RNAs. Typically these functional RNAs often have a conserved secondary structure which may be better preserved than the RNA sequence. The CMs used to describe each family are a slightly more complicated relative of the profile hidden Markov models (HMMs) used by Pfam. CMs can simultaneously model RNA sequence and the structure in an elegant and accurate fashion. Rfam is also available via FTP. You can find data in Rfam in various ways... * Analyze your RNA sequence for Rfam matches * View Rfam family annotation and alignments * View Rfam clan details * Query Rfam by keywords * Fetch families or sequences by NCBI taxonomy * Enter any type of accession or ID to jump to the page for a Rfam family, sequence or genome

ERIC is a resource of annotated enterobacterial genomes. Information is available and accessed through a open web portal uniting biological data and analysis tools. ERIC contains information on Escherichia, Shigella, Salmonella, Yersinia, and other microorgansims. ERIC has recently been moved over to PATRIC: The PATRIC BRC is now responsible for all bacterial species in the NIAID Category A-C Priority Pathogen lists for biodefense research, and pathogens causing emerging/reemerging infectious diseases. For ERIC users, we understand that the resource was valuable to your work. As such, we will be doing our very best to create a useful PATRIC resource to continue supporting your work. We realize that the transition will cause disruptions. However, it is a priority for us to work with established BRC users and communities to identify and prioritize our transition efforts. We have concentrated on the transfer of genomic data for this initial release. We anticipate adding new data, tools, and website features over the next several months. We look forward to working with you during the next 5 years., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

The interacting motif database or iMOTdb , lists interacting motifs that are identified for all structural entries in the PDB. The conserved patterns or finger prints are identified for individual structural entries and also grouped together for reporting the common motifs shared among all superfamily members. The iMOT package has been employed for identifying the motifs in the database. Realization of conserved residues that represent a protein family is crucial for clearer understanding of biological function as well as for the better recognition of additional members in sequence databases. Functionally important residues are recognized well due to their high degree of conservation in closely related sequences and are annotated in functional motif databases. Structural motifs are central to the integrity of the fold and require careful analysis for their identification. It reports the availability of a database of spatially interacting motifs in single protein structures as well as those among distantly related protein structures that belong to a superfamily. Spatial interactions amongst conserved motifs are automatically measured using sequence similarity scores and distance calculations. Interactions between pairs of conserved motifs are described in the form of pseudoenergies. iMOTdb database provides information for 854,488 motifs corresponding to 60,849 protein structural domains and 22,648 protein structural entries. Interacting motifs has been shown to assist our understanding of proteins structure and function. Information on such motifs should be of valuable in protein folding, modeling and engineering experiments. As shown in previous studies conserved spatially interacting motifs act as important constraint in pattern based remote homology search methods. The iMOT DB is provided with links to aid sequence search protocol using PHI-BLAST and SCAN MOT employing the interacting motifs. The interacting motifs representing the superfamilies of proteins are derived from structural alignments obtained from PASS2. These motifs are finger prints for a given protein family and provides useful insights regarding the structural and functional role regarding the protein. Pseudo potential evaluated between the various pairs of motifs reflects the interacting strength between the regions and highlights the thermodynamic stability of the local substructure. The database would thus provide useful insight into the understanding of the folding, structural modeling and envisaging mutational exercise on a given polypeptide.

The UW Integrated Brain Project is one project within the national Human Brain Project, a national multi-agency effort to develop informatics tools for managing the exploding amount of information that is accumulating about the human brain. The objective of the UW Integrated Brain Project effort is to organize and integrate distributed functional information about the brain around the structural information framework that is the long term goal of our work. This application therefore extends the utility of the Digital Anatomist Project by using it to organize non-structural information. The initial driving neuroscience problem that is being addressed is the management, visualization and analysis of cortical language mapping data. In recent years, advances in imaging technology such as PET and functional MRI have allowed researchers to observe areas of the cortex that are activated when the subject performs language tasks. These advances have greatly accelerated the amount of data available about human language, but have also emphasized the need to organize and integrate the sometimes contradictory sources of data, in order to develop theories about language organization. The hypothesis is that neuroanatomy is the common substrate on which the diverse kinds of data can be integrated. A result of the work done by this project is a set of software tools for generating a 3-D reconstruction of the patient''s own brain from MRI, for mapping functional data to this reconstruction, for normalizing individual anatomy by warping to a canonical brain atlas and by annotating data with terms from an anatomy ontology, for managing individual lab data in local laboratory information systems, for integrating and querying data across separate data management systems, and for visualizing the integrated results. Sponsors: This Human Brain Project research is funded jointly by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, the National Institute of Mental Health, and the National Institute on Aging.

An interdisciplinary group of scientists and clinicians who study the human brain using a variety of imaging, recording, and computational techniques. Their primary goal is to bridge non-invasive imaging technologies to the underlying neurophysiology of brain neuronal circuits for a better understanding of healthy human brain function, and mechanisms of disruption of this function in diseases such as Alzheimer's, epilepsy and stroke. The other goal of the MMIL is to develop and apply advanced imaging techniques to understanding the human brain and its disorders. In order to ground these methodological developments in their underlying neurobiology, invasive studies in humans and animals involving optical and micro physiological measures are also performed. These methodologies are applied to understanding normal function in sleep, memory and language, development and aging, and diseases such as dementia, epilepsy and autism.

This website contains the genome sequence of Dictyostelium discoideum. The determination of the entire information content of the Dictyostelium genome will be of great value to those working with this organism directly, as well as to those who would like to determine the functions of homologous genes from other species. Dictyostelium discoideum, a soil-living amoeba, is an excellent organism for the study of the molecular mechanisms of cell motility, signal transduction, cell-type differentiation and developmental processes. Genes involved in any of these processes can be knocked-out rapidly by targeted homologous recombination. Since Dictyostelium is haploid, mutants are readily isolated and the REMI (restriction enzyme mediated integration) technique of insertional mutagenesis allows the facile cloning of disrupted genes. The Dictyostelium genome is being sequenced with the chromosomal shotgun methodology on a chromosome by chromosome basis. The six Dictyostelium chromosomes with sizes ranging from four to seven Mb are being separated by PFGE (Pulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis) by Edward Cox, Princeton University. Chromosomal libraries with insert sizes between 1 and 4 kb are being generated by the Sanger Centre using pUC18 as a vector. For shotgun sequencing both forward and reverse reads from each clone randomly selected from the chromosome-enriched libraries are being produced. The read pairs will represent a useful mapping resource to assess contig order. For every Mb of DNA an estimated number of 20,000 - 25,000 single shotgun reads will be necessary. The hereditary information is carried on 6 chromosomes with sizes ranging from 4 to 7 Mb resulting in a total of about 34 Mb of DNA, a multicopy 90 kb extrachromosomal element that harbours the rRNA genes, and the 55 kb mitochondrial genome. The estimated number of genes in the genome is 8,000 to 10,000 and many of the known genes show a high degree of sequence similarity to homologues in vertebrate species.

Cellular Open Resource is a Microsoft Windows environment for cellular modeling that is built around CellML (except for reactions and metadata which are not supported). It offers, through CellML, an ''out of the box'' access to a large database of single cell models. COR was among the early adopters of this standard, eventually forming the first publicly available CellML-based modeling and collaboration environment. From the onset, COR was designed to provide an environment that could not only be used by experienced modelers, but also by experimentalists, teachers and students. It therefore tries to combine a user-friendly interface with a computationally efficient numerical engine. In this paper, we introduce the philosophy behind COR, explain its user interface and current functionality, including the editing and running of CellML files, highlight lessons learned from user feedback and problems experienced during the development of COR and conclude by exploring future development potential. Sponsors: This study has been supported by a grant from the UK Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BB/E024955/1).
