bioPIXIE Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
bioPIXIE (RRID:SCR_004182) | bioPIXIE | analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource, service resource | bioPIXIE is a general system for discovery of biological networks through integration of diverse genome-wide functional data. This novel system for biological data integration and visualization, allows you to discover interaction networks and pathways in which your gene(s) (e.g. BNI1, YFL039C) of interest participate. The system is based on a Bayesian algorithm for identification of biological networks based on integrated diverse genomic data. To start using bioPIXIE, enter your genes of interest into the search box. You can use ORF names or aliases. If you enter multiple genes, they can be separated by commas or returns. Press ''submit''. bioPIXIE uses a probabilistic Bayesian algorithm to identify genes that are most likely to be in the same pathway/functional neighborhood as your genes of interest. It then displays biological network for the resulting genes as a graph. The nodes in the graph are genes (clicking on each node will bring up SGD page for that gene) and edges are interactions (clicking on each edge will show evidence used to predict this interaction). Most likely, the first results to load on the results page will be a list of significant Gene Ontology terms. This list is calculated for the genes in the biological network created by the bioPIXIE algorithm. If a gene ontology term appears on this list with a low p-value, it is statistically significantly overrepresented in this biological network. As you move the mouse over genes in the network, interactions involving these genes are highlighted. If you click on any of the highlighted interactions graph, evidence pop-up window will appear. The Evidence pop-up lists all evidence for this interaction, with links to the papers that produced this evidence - clicking these links will bring up the relevant source citation(s) in PubMed. You may need to download the Adobe Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG) plugin to utilize the visualization tool (you will be prompted if you need it). | prediction, bayesian network, probabilistic, interaction, network | has parent organization: Princeton University; New Jersey; USA | NHGRI T32 HG003284; NIGMS R01 GM071966; NHGRI R01 HG003471; NIGMS P50 GM071508; NSF DGE-9972930; NSF IIS-0513552 |

LIPID MAPS Structure Database (RRID:SCR_003817) | LMSD | data or information resource, database | Collection of structures and annotations of biologically relevant lipids that contains unique lipid structures. Structures of lipids from : LIPID MAPS Consortium's core laboratories and partners; lipids identified by LIPID MAPS experiments; biologically relevant lipids manually curated from LIPID BANK, LIPIDAT, Lipid Library, Cyberlipids, ChEBI and other public sources; novel lipids submitted to peer-reviewed journals; and computationally generated structures for appropriate classes. All the lipid structures adhere to the structure drawing rules proposed by the LIPID MAPS consortium. A number of structure viewing options are offered: gif image (default), Chemdraw (requires Chemdraw ActiveX/Plugin), MarvinView (Java applet) and JMol (Java applet). All lipids have been classified using the LIPID MAPS Lipid Classification System. Each lipid structure has been assigned a LIPID MAPS ID (LM_ID) which reflects its position in the classification hierarchy. In addition to a classification-based retrieval of lipids, users can search using either text-based or structure-based search options. | fatty acyl, glycerolipid, glycerophospholipid, sphingolipid, sterol lipid, prenol lipid, sacccharolipid, polyketide, lipid, structure, image, annotation, metabolomics | has parent organization: LIPID Metabolites And Pathways Strategy | NIGMS | PMID:17098933 | Public, Free, Acknowledgement required, Non-commercial, Copyrighted | nlx_158117 | SCR_003817 | LIPID MAPS Structure Database (LMSD) | 2026-09-05 06:31:21 | 24 | |||||

ProFunc Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
ProFunc (RRID:SCR_004450) | ProFunc | analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource, service resource | The ProFunc server had been developed to help identify the likely biochemical function of a protein from its three-dimensional structure. It uses both sequence- and structure-based methods including fold matching, residue conservation, surface cleft analysis, and functional 3D templates, to identify both the protein''''s likely active site and possible homologues in the PDB. Often, where one method fails to provide any functional insight another may be more helpful. You can submit your own structure, analyze an existing PDB entry, or retrieve the results of a previously submitted run. The files are usually stored for about 6 months before being deleted. However, they are stored on a partition that is not backed up; so, in principle, they could disappear at any time. | gold standard |

ECO Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
ECO (RRID:SCR_002477) | ECO | controlled vocabulary, data or information resource, ontology | A controlled vocabulary that describes types of scientific evidence within the realm of biological research that can arise from laboratory experiments, computational methods, manual literature curation, and other means. Researchers can use these types of evidence to support assertions about research subjects that result from scientific research, such as scientific conclusions, gene annotations, or other statements of fact. ECO comprises two high-level classes, evidence and assertion method, where evidence is defined as a type of information that is used to support an assertion, and assertion method is defined as a means by which a statement is made about an entity. Together evidence and assertion method can be combined to describe both the support for an assertion and whether that assertion was made by a human being or a computer. However, ECO can not be used to make the assertion itself; for that, one would use another ontology, free text description, or other means. ECO was originally created around the year 2000 to support gene product annotation by the Gene Ontology. Today ECO is used by many groups concerned with provenance in scientific research. ECO is used in AmiGO 2 | evidence, assertion, assertion method, gene product, obo, evidence code, experiment, similarity, provenance |
