http://murphylab.web.cmu.edu/services/SLIF/

SLIF finds fluorescence microscope images in on-line journal articles, and indexes them according to cell line, proteins visualized, and resolution. Images can be accessed via the SLIF Web database. SLIF takes on-line papers and scans them for figures that contain fluorescence microscope images (FMIs). Figures typically contain multiple FMIs, to SLIF must segment these images into individual FMIs. When the FMI images are extracted, annotations for the images (for instance, names of proteins and cell-lines) are also extracted from the accompanying caption text. Protein annotation are also used to link to external databases, such as the Gene Ontology DB. The more detailed process includes: segmentation of images into panels; panel classification, to find FMIs; segmentation of the caption, to find which portions of the caption apply to which panels; text-based entity extraction; matching of extracted entities to database entries; extraction of panel labels from text and figures; and alignment of the text segments to the panels. Extracted FMIs are processed to find subcellular location features (SLFs), and the resulting analyzed, annotated figures are stored in a database, which is accessible via SQL queries.

http://www.mbio.ncsu.edu/RNaseP/home.html

Ribonuclease P is responsible for the 5''-maturation of tRNA precursors. Ribonuclease P is a ribonucleoprotein, and in bacteria (and some Archaea) the RNA subunit alone is catalytically active in vitro, i.e. it is a ribozyme. The Ribonuclease P Database is a compilation of ribonuclease P sequences, sequence alignments, secondary structures, three-dimensional models and accessory information. The database contains information on bacterial, archaeal, and eukaryotic RNase P. The RNase P and protein sequences are available from phylogentically-arranged lists, individual sequences, or aligned in GenBank format. The database also provides secondary structures and 3D models, as well as movies, still images, and other accessory information.

http://www.agbase.msstate.edu/

A curated, open-source, web-accessible resource for functional analysis of agricultural plant and animal gene products. Our long-term goal is to serve the needs of the agricultural research communities by facilitating post-genome biology for agriculture researchers and for those researchers primarily using agricultural species as biomedical models. AgBase provides tools designed to assist with the analysis of proteomics data and tools to evaluate experimental datasets using the GO. Additional tools for sequence analysis are also provided. We use controlled vocabularies developed by the Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium to describe molecular function, biological process, and cellular component for genes and gene products in agricultural species. AgBase will also accept annotations from any interested party in the research communities. AgBase develops freely available tools for functional analysis, including tools for using GO. We appreciate any and all questions, comments, and suggestions. AgBase uses the NCBI Blast program for searches for similar sequences. And the Taxonomy Browser allows users to find the NCBI defined taxon ID for or taxon name for different organisms.

http://metallo.scripps.edu/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on June 24, 2013. Database and Browser containing quantitative information on all the metal-containing sites available from structures in the PDB distribution. This database contains geometrical and molecular information that allows the classification and search of particular combinations of site characteristics, and answer questions such as: How many mononuclear zinc-containing sites are five coordinate with X-ray resolution better than 1.8 Angstroms?, and then be able to visualize and manipulate the matching sites. The database also includes enough information to answer questions involving type and number of ligands (e.g. "at least 2 His"), and include distance cutoff criteria (e.g. a metal-ligand distance no more than 3.0 Angstroms and no less than 2.2 Angstroms). This database is being developed as part of a project whose ultimate goal is metalloprotein design, allowing the interactive visualization of geometrical and functional information garnered from the MDB. The database is created by automatic recognition and extraction of metal-binding sites from metal-containing proteins. Quantitative information is extracted and organized into a searchable form, by iterating through all the entries in the latest PDB release (at the moment: September 2001). This is a comprehensive quantitative database, which exists in SQL format and contains information on about 5,500 proteins.

http://zebrafinch.brainarchitecture.org/

Atlas of high resolution Nissl stained digital images of the brain of the zebra finch, the mainstay of songbird research. The cytoarchitectural high resolution photographs and atlas presented here aim at facilitating electrode placement, connectional studies, and cytoarchitectonic analysis. This initial atlas is not in stereotaxic coordinate space. It is intended to complement the stereotaxic atlases of Akutegawa and Konishi, and that of Nixdorf and Bischof. (Akutagawa E. and Konishi M., stereotaxic atalas of the brain of zebra finch, unpublished. and Nixdorf-Bergweiler B. E. and Bischof H. J., A Stereotaxic Atlas of the Brain Of the Zebra Finch, Taeniopygia Guttata, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.) The zebra finch has proven to be the most widely used model organism for the study of the neurological and behavioral development of birdsong. A unique strength of this research area is its integrative nature, encompassing field studies and ethologically grounded behavioral biology, as well as neurophysiological and molecular levels of analysis. The availability of dimensionally accurate and detailed atlases and photographs of the brain of male and female animals, as well as of the brain during development, can be expected to play an important role in this research program. Traditionally, atlases for the zebra finch brain have only been available in printed format, with the limitation of low image resolution of the cell stained sections. The advantages of a digital atlas over a traditional paper-based atlas are three-fold. * The digital atlas can be viewed at multiple resolutions. At low magnification, it provides an overview of brain sections and regions, while at higher magnification, it shows exquisite details of the cytoarchitectural structure. * It allows digital re-slicing of the brain. The original photographs of brain were taken in certain selected planes of section. However, the brains are seldom sliced in exactly the same plane in real experiments. Re-slicing provides a useful atlas in user-chosen planes, which are otherwise unavailable in the paper-based version. * It can be made available on the internet. High resolution histological datasets can be independently evaluated in light of new experimental anatomical, physiological and molecular studies.

http://avis.princeton.edu/pixie/index.php

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).

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/databases/profunc/index.html

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.

http://www.phenologs.org/

Database for identifying orthologous phenotypes (phenologs). Mapping between genotype and phenotype is often non-obvious, complicating prediction of genes underlying specific phenotypes. This problem can be addressed through comparative analyses of phenotypes. We define phenologs based upon overlapping sets of orthologous genes associated with each phenotype. Comparisons of >189,000 human, mouse, yeast, and worm gene-phenotype associations reveal many significant phenologs, including novel non-obvious human disease models. For example, phenologs suggest a yeast model for mammalian angiogenesis defects and an invertebrate model for vertebrate neural tube birth defects. Phenologs thus create a rich framework for comparing mutational phenotypes, identify adaptive reuse of gene systems, and suggest new disease genes. To search for phenologs, go to the basic search page and enter a list of genes in the box provided, using Entrez gene identifiers for mouse/human genes, locus ids for yeast (e.g., YHR200W), or sequence names for worm (e.g., B0205.3). It is expected that this list of genes will all be associated with a particular system, trait, mutational phenotype, or disease. The search will return all identified model organism/human mutational phenotypes that show any overlap with the input set of the genes, ranked according to their hypergeometric probability scores. Clicking on a particular phenolog will result in a list of genes associated with the phenotype, from which potential new candidate genes can identified. Currently known phenotypes in the database are available from the link labeled ''Find phenotypes'', where the associated gene can be submitted as queries, or alternately, can be searched directly from the link provided.

http://cossmos.slu.edu/

Database to search through the nucleic acid structures from the Protein Data Bank and examine structural motifs, including (a)symmetric internal loops, bulge loops, and hairpin loops. They have compiled over 2,000 three-dimensional structures, which can now be searched using different parameters, including PDB information, experimental technique, sequence, and motif type. RNA secondary structure is important for designing therapeutics, understanding protein-RNA binding and predicting tertiary structure of RNA. Several databases and downloadable programs exist that specialize in the three-dimensional (3D) structure of RNA, but none focus specifically on secondary structural motifs such as internal, bulge and hairpin loops. To create the RNA CoSSMos database, 2156 Protein Data Bank (PDB) files were searched for internal, bulge and hairpin loops, and each loop''''s structural information, including sugar pucker, glycosidic linkage, hydrogen bonding patterns and stacking interactions, was included in the database. False positives were defined, identified and reclassified or omitted from the database to ensure the most accurate results possible. Users can search via general PDB information, experimental parameters, sequence and specific motif and by specific structural parameters in the subquery page after the initial search. Returned results for each search can be viewed individually or a complete set can be downloaded into a spreadsheet to allow for easy comparison. The RNA CoSSMos database is updated weekly.
