ProbeExplorer (RRID:SCR_007116) | ProbeExplorer | analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource, service resource | Probe Explorer is an open access web-based bioinformatics application designed to show the association between microarray oligonucleotide probes and transcripts in the genomic context, but flexible enough to serve as a simplified genome and transcriptome browser. Coordinates and sequences of the genomic entities (loci, exons, transcripts), including vector graphics outputs, are provided for fifteen metazoa organisms and two yeasts. Alignment tools are used to built the associations between Affymetrix microarrays probe sequences and the transcriptomes (for human, mouse, rat and yeasts). Search by keywords is available and user searches and alignments on the genomes can also be done using any DNA or protein sequence query.

Tetraodon nigroviridis Database Resource Report Resource Website |
Tetraodon nigroviridis Database (RRID:SCR_007123) | data or information resource, database | This database have been funded by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) to produce shotgun sequence of the Tetraodon nigriviridis genome. The strategy involves Whole Genome Shotgun (WGS) sequencing, in which sequence from the entire genome is generated. Whole genome shotgun libraries were prepared from Tetraodon genomic DNA obtained from the laboratory of Jean Weissenbach at Genoscope. Additional sequence data of approximately 2.5X coverage of Tetraodon has also been generated by Genoscope in plasmid and BAC end reads. Broad and Genoscope intend to pool their data and generate whole genome assemblies. Tetraodon nigroviridis is a freshwater pufferfish of the order Tetraodontiformes and lives in the rivers and estuaries of Indonesia, Malaysia and India. This species is 20-30 million years distant from Fugu rubripes, a marine pufferfish from the same family. The gene repertoire of T. nigroviridis is very similar to that of other vertebrates. However, its relatively small genome of 385 Mb is eight times more compact than that of human, mostly because intergenic and intronic sequences are reduced in size compared to other vertebrate genomes. These genome characteristics along with the large evolutionary distance between bony fish and mammals make Tetraodon a compact vertebrate reference genome - a powerful tool for comparative genetics and for quick and reliable identification of human genes. | estruary, evolutionary, fish, freshwater, fugu rubripes, gene, genetic, bac, bony, distance, dna, genome, genomic, human, intergenic, intronic, nigriviridis, plasmid, pufferfish, river, sequence, sequencing, shotgun, specie, tetraodon, tetraodontiformes, vertebrate | nif-0000-20998 | SCR_007123 | TND | 2026-08-29 11:29:49 | 0 | ||||||||||

Yeast Intron Database (RRID:SCR_007144) | Yeast Intron Database | data or information resource, database | Database of information about the spliceosomal introns of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Listed are known spliceosomal introns in the yeast genome and the splice sites actually used are documented. Through the use of microarrays designed to monitor splicing, they are beginning to identify and analyze splice site context in terms of the nature and activities of the trans-acting factors that mediate splice site recognition. In version 3.0, expression data that relates to the efficiency of splicing relative to other processes in strains of yeast lacking nonessential splicing factors is included. These data are displayed on each intron page for browsing and can be downloaded for other types of analysis. | intron, spliceosomal, splicing, genome, intron splice signal, sequence, splice site |

Protein Classification Benchmark Collection Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Protein Classification Benchmark Collection (RRID:SCR_007561) | data or information resource, database | It was created in order to create standard datasets on which the performance of machine learning methods can be compared. The collection contains datasets of sequences and structures, each subdivided into positive/negative training/test sets. Such a subdivision is called a classification task. Typical tasks include the classification of structural domains in the SCOP and CATH databases based on their sequences, as fell as various functional and taxonomic classification tasks. Running a performance evaluation test on an entire database can include many different classification tasks. These ensembles of classification tasks are encoded in a simple matrix format - called the cast matrix or membership table - that specifies the role of each sequence (or structure) in the different calculations. Each column of this matrix is a subdivision of the objects (rows) into positive/negative training/test sets. Typically, a database record contains such an ensemble of classification tasks, encoded in a single cast matrix. In addition, there is a collection of distance matrices that contain an all vs. all comparison of the datasets using methods as BLAST, Smith-Waterman, 3D-comparisons etc. Evaluation of a method on a given database consists of calculating a performance measure such as a receiver operating curve (ROC) AUC value. Results of evaluation are deposited along with the data, each dataset is evaluated at least by one classification method, such as 1NN (nearest neighbour) or SVM (support vector machines), ANN (artificial neural networks), RF (random forests) etc.. There are small datasets meant for program developers, as well as downloadable programs for various classification algorithms. | classificaiton, machine learning, sequence, standard, standard dataset, structure, technology | nif-0000-02600 | SCR_007561 | Benchmark | 2026-08-29 11:30:00 | 26 | ||||||||||
