Data set of a molecular taxonomy of lung carcinoma, the leading cause of cancer death in the United States and worldwide. Using oligonucleotide microarrays, researchers analyzed mRNA expression levels corresponding to 12,600 transcript sequences in 186 lung tumor samples, including 139 adenocarcinomas resected from the lung. Hierarchical and probabilistic clustering of expression data defined distinct sub-classes of lung adenocarcinoma. Among these were tumors with high relative expression of neuroendocrine genes and of type II pneumocyte genes, respectively. Retrospective analysis revealed a less favorable outcome for the adenocarcinomas with neuroendocrine gene expression. The diagnostic potential of expression profiling is emphasized by its ability to discriminate primary lung adenocarcinomas from metastases of extra-pulmonary origin. These results suggest that integration of expression profile data with clinical parameters could aid in diagnosis of lung cancer patients.

http://www.uniprot.org/program/Chordata

Data set of manually annotated chordata-specific proteins as well as those that are widely conserved. The program keeps existing human entries up-to-date and broadens the manual annotation to other vertebrate species, especially model organisms, including great apes, cow, mouse, rat, chicken, zebrafish, as well as Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. A draft of the complete human proteome is available in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot and one of the current priorities of the Chordata protein annotation program is to improve the quality of human sequences provided. To this aim, they are updating sequences which show discrepancies with those predicted from the genome sequence. Dubious isoforms, sequences based on experimental artifacts and protein products derived from erroneous gene model predictions are also revisited. This work is in part done in collaboration with the Hinxton Sequence Forum (HSF), which allows active exchange between UniProt, HAVANA, Ensembl and HGNC groups, as well as with RefSeq database. UniProt is a member of the Consensus CDS project and thye are in the process of reviewing their records to support convergence towards a standard set of protein annotation. They also continuously update human entries with functional annotation, including novel structural, post-translational modification, interaction and enzymatic activity data. In order to identify candidates for re-annotation, they use, among others, information extraction tools such as the STRING database. In addition, they regularly add new sequence variants and maintain disease information. Indeed, this annotation program includes the Variation Annotation Program, the goal of which is to annotate all known human genetic diseases and disease-linked protein variants, as well as neutral polymorphisms.

http://www.sanger.ac.uk/resources/software/vagrent/

Software tool set for calculating the biological consequences of genomic variations. The suite of perl modules compares genomic variations with reference genome annotations and generates the possible effects each variant may have on the transcripts it overlaps. It evaluates each variation/transcript combination and describes the effects in the mRNA, CDS and protein sequence contexts. It provides details of the sequence and position of the change within the transcript / protein as well as Sequence Ontology terms to classify its consequences.

https://sites.google.com/a/blueprint.org/trades/

With Trajectory Directed Ensemble Sampling (TraDES) create large ensembles of high-quality protein structures quickly, ranging from near-native to partially unfolded to intrinsically unfolded. TraDES is a system for directly controlling and sampling protein conformational space. TraDES has been previously used for measuring the vastness of protein conformational space and testing the hypothesis of a brute force solution to the protein folding problem. Over 10 Billion protein structures have been produced by TraDES software in previous distributed computing experiments. The package is comprised of binary executable programs and accessory programs and scripts as well as protein structure data files that map out protein conformational space in a probabilistic way. The main programs are: * trades - generates protein structures following the Trajectory Distribution (see below) * seq2trj - makes Trajectory Distributions from sequences for sampling * str2tr - makes Trajectory Distributions from 3D structures for sampling Trajectory Distributions - Controlling the Sampling of Conformational Space The concept of the trajectory distribution may be new to many protein scientists. A trajectory distribution is simply a map of available conformational space at an amino acid residue. NMR scientists are the primary users of the TraDES package.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on January 4,2023. IgBLAST was developed at NCBI to facilitate analysis of immunoglobulin V region sequences in GenBank. In addition to performing a regular BLAST search, IgBLAST has several additional functions: - Reports the germline V, D and J gene matches to the query sequence. - Annotates the immunoglobulin domains (FWR1 through FWR3). - Matches the returned hits (for databases other than germline genes) to the closest germline V genes, making it easier to identify related sequences. - Reveals the V(D)J junction details such as nucleotide homology between the ends of V(D)J segments and N nucleotide insertions. D and J gene reporting is only for nucleotide sequence search and requires a stretch of five or more nucleotide identity between the query and D or J genes. Sponsors: This resource is supported by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, a division of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
