An integrative platform for the analysis of transcriptomics, proteomics and genomic data with advanced functional profiling. Version 4 of Babelomics integrates primary (normalization, calls, etc.) and secondary (signatures, predictors, associations, TDTs, clustering, etc.) analysis tools within an environment that allows relating genomic data and/or interpreting them by means of different functional enrichment or gene set methods. Such interpretation is made not only using functional definitions (GO, KEGG, Biocarta, etc.) but also regulatory information (from Transfac, Jaspar, etc.) and other levels of regulation such as miRNA-mediated interference, protein-protein interactions, text-mining module definitions and the possibility of producing de novo annotations through the Blast2GO system . Babelomics has been extensively re-engineered and now it includes the use of web services and Web 2.0 technology features, a new user interface with persistent sessions and a new extended database of gene identifiers. In this release GEPAS and Babelomics have integrated into a unique web application with many new features and improvements: * Data input: import and quality control for the most common microarray formats * Normalization and base calling: for the most common expression, tiling and SNP microarrays (Affymetrix and Agilent). * Transcriptomics: diverse analysis options that include well established as well as novel algorithms for normalization, gene selection, class prediction, clustering and time-series analysis. * Genotyping: stratification analysis, association, TDT. * Functional profiling: functional enrichment and gene set enrichment analysis with functional terms (GO, KEGG, Biocarta, etc.), regulatory (Transfac, Jaspar, miRNAs, etc.), text-mining, derived bioentities, protein-protein interaction analysis. * Integrative analysis: Different variables can be related to each other (e.g. gene expression to gnomic copy number) and the results subjected to functional analysis. Platform: Online tool

WebServer that identifies high-probability signaling and regulatory paths that connect input data sets. The input includes two weighted lists of condition-related proteins and genes, such as a set of disease-associated proteins and a set of differentially expressed disease genes, and a molecular interaction network (i.e., interactome). The output is a sparse, high-probability interactome sub-network connecting the two sets that is biased toward signaling pathways. This sub-network exposes additional proteins that are potentially involved in the studied condition and their likely modes of action. Computationally, it is formulated as a minimum-cost flow optimization problem that is solved using linear programming.

PANDIT is a collection of multiple sequence alignments and phylogenetic trees covering many common protein domains. It contains: * the seed protein sequence alignments from the Pfam-A (curated families) database (version 17.0) * nucleotide sequence alignments derived from sequences available for the above and using the protein alignments as "templates"; * protein sequence alignments restricted to the family members for which nucleotide sequences are available * inferred phylogenetic trees for each alignment The data in PANDIT and the dataset's development have been frozen owing to a lack of funding support. The existing data, version 17.0 corresponding to Pfam 17.0, remain stable and, we hope, useful. The entire database is also available for download as a flatfile from this website.

Database of three-dimensional structures of macromolecules that allows the user to retrieve structures for specific molecule types as well as structures for genes and proteins of interest. Three main databases comprise Structure-The Molecular Modeling Database; Conserved Domains and Protein Classification; and the BioSystems Database. Structure also links to the PubChem databases to connect biological activity data to the macromolecular structures. Users can locate structural templates for proteins and interactively view structures and sequence data to closely examine sequence-structure relationships. * Macromolecular structures: The three-dimensional structures of biomolecules provide a wealth of information on their biological function and evolutionary relationships. The Molecular Modeling Database (MMDB), as part of the Entrez system, facilitates access to structure data by connecting them with associated literature, protein and nucleic acid sequences, chemicals, biomolecular interactions, and more. It is possible, for example, to find 3D structures for homologs of a protein of interest by following the Related Structure link in an Entrez Protein sequence record. * Conserved domains and protein classification: Conserved domains are functional units within a protein that act as building blocks in molecular evolution and recombine in various arrangements to make proteins with different functions. The Conserved Domain Database (CDD) brings together several collections of multiple sequence alignments representing conserved domains, in addition to NCBI-curated domains that use 3D-structure information explicitly to define domain boundaries and provide insights into sequence/structure/function relationships. * Small molecules and their biological activity: The PubChem project provides information on the biological activities of small molecules and is a component of NIH''''s Molecular Libraries Roadmap Initiative. PubChem includes three databases: PCSubstance, PCBioAssay, and PCCompound. The PubChem data are linked to other data types (illustrated example) in the Entrez system, making it possible, for example, to retrieve information about a compound and then Link to its biological activity data, retrieve 3D protein structures bound to the compound and interactively view their active sites, and find biosystems that include the compound as a component. * Biological Systems: A biosystem, or biological system, is a group of molecules that interact directly or indirectly, where the grouping is relevant to the characterization of living matter. The NCBI BioSystems Database provides centralized access to biological pathways from several source databases and connects the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system. BioSystem records list and categorize components (illustrated example), such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink icon FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems.

Information system that provides a network of concurring genes and proteins extends through the scientific literature touching on phenotypes, pathologies and gene function. It provides this network as a natural way of accessing millions of PubMed abstracts. By using genes and proteins as hyperlinks between sentences and abstracts, the information in PubMed can be converted into one navigable resource, bringing all advantages of the internet to scientific literature research. Moreover, this literature network can be superimposed on experimental interaction data (e.g., yeast-two hybrid data from Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans) to make possible a simultaneous analysis of new and existing knowledge. The network contains half a million sentences and 30,000 different genes from humans, mice, D. melanogaster, C. elegans, zebrafish, Arabidopsis thaliana, yeast and Escherichia coli.

A web server for functional annotation of novel and publicly known genetic variants that was developed to assess the potential significance of known and novel SNPs on the major transcriptome, proteome, regulatory and structural variation models in order to identify the phenotypically important variants. A broader range of variations have been incorporated such as insertions / deletions, block substitutions, IUPAC codes submission and region-based analysis, expanding the query size limit, and most importantly including additional categories for the assessment of functional impact. SNPnexus provides a comprehensive set of annotations for genomic variation data by characterizing related functional consequences at the transcriptome/proteome levels of seven major annotation systems with in-depth analysis of potential deleterious effects, inferring physical and cytogenetic mapping, reporting information on HapMap genotype/allele data, finding overlaps with potential regulatory elements, structural variations and conserved elements, and retrieving links with previously reported genetic disease studies.

A web service to extract Protein-protein interaction (PPI)-relevant articles from MEDLINE that provides protein interaction information (PPI) articles for biologists, baseline system performance for bio-text mining researchers and a compact PubMed-search environment for PubMed users. It accepts PubMed input formats including All Fields, Author, Journal, MeSH Terms, Publication Date, Title, and Title/Abstract with Boolean operations (AND, OR, and NOT). However, the output is the list of articles prioritized by PPI confidence rates. Some words (mostly gene/protein names) which contributed for PPI prediction are underlined and linked to Entrez or Entrez Gene. Even though our system focuses on a PubMed search environment, it also provides a CGI access for bio-text mining researchers. Using the CGI program, a list of PubMed IDs can be obtained as a query result, thus it can be utilized as a baseline system performance. PIE the search is based on a winning approach in the BioCreative III ACT competition (BC3)1. For input queries, MEDLINE articles are first retrieved through the PubMed service. PPI scores are calculated for the retrieved articles, and the articles are re-ranked based on scores. To effectively capture PPI patterns from biomedical literature, their approach utilizes both word and syntactic features for machine learning classifiers. Dependency parsing, gene mention tagging, and term-based features are utilized along with a Huber classifier.

http://gila.bioengr.uic.edu/snp/toposnp
A topographic database for analyzing non-synonymous SNPs (nsSNPs) that can be mapped onto known 3D structures of proteins. These include disease- associated nsSNPs derived from the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) database and other nsSNPs derived from dbSNP, a resource at the National Center for Biotechnology Information that catalogs SNPs. TopoSNP further classifies each nsSNP site into three categories based on their geometric location: those located in a surface pocket or an interior void of the protein, those on a convex region or a shallow depressed region, and those that are completely buried in the interior of the protein structure. These unique geometric descriptions provide more detailed mapping of nsSNPs to protein structures. It also includes relative entropy of SNPs calculated from multiple sequence alignment as obtained from the Pfam database (a database of protein families and conserved protein motifs) as well as manually adjusted multiple alignments obtained from ClustalW. These structural and conservational data can be useful for studying whether nsSNPs in coding regions are likely to lead to phenotypic changes. TopoSNP includes an interactive structural visualization web interface, as well as downloadable batch data.
