A public curated compilation of allele frequency data on anthropologically defined human population samples linked to the molecular genetics-human genome databases. Only data on well defined population samples that are large enough to yield reasonably accurate frequencies and for polymorphisms sufficiently defined to be replicable can be included in ALFRED. Researchers wishing to have their data entered into ALFRED should contact them. Initially, ALFRED contained primarily data generated in the laboratories of K.K. and J.R. Kidd in the Department of Genetics at Yale, including extensive unpublished data. Data from the published literature are being entered into ALFRED in a systematic way, with a focus on polymorphisms studied in many different populations. ALFRED is distinct from such databases as dbSNP, which catalogs sequence variation. ALFRED's focus is on allele frequencies in diverse anthropologically defined populations. It is not a compendium of human DNA polymorphisms but of frequencies of selected polymorphisms with an emphasis on those that have been studied in multiple populations. All of the data in ALFRED are considered to be in the public domain and available for use in research and teaching. ALFRED provides easy searching options including versatile "Keyword search" and also has numerous summary tables providing quick overviews of contents by chromosome, population, average heterozygosity, Fst and others, all available under various tabs from the ALFRED homepage.

http://biocyc.org/

A collection of Pathway/Genome Databases which describes the genome and metabolic pathways of a single organism. The BioCyc collection of Pathway/Genome Databases (PGDBs) provides an electronic reference source on the genomes and metabolic pathways of sequenced organisms. BioCyc PGDBs are generated by software that predicts the metabolic pathway complements of completely sequenced organisms from their genome sequences. They also include the results of a number of other computational inference procedures applied to these genomes, including predictions of which genes code for missing enzymes in metabolic pathways, and predicted operons. The BioCyc Web site provides a suite of software tools for database searching and visualization, for omics data analysis, and for comparative genomics and comparative pathway questions. The databases within the BioCyc collection are organized into tiers according to the amount of manual review and updating they have received. Tier 1 PGDBs have been created through intensive manual efforts, and receive continuous updating. Tier 2 PGDBs were computationally generated by the PathoLogic program, and have undergone moderate amounts of review and updating. Tier 3 PGDBs were computationally generated by the PathoLogic program, and have undergone no review and updating. There are 967 DBs in Tier 3. The downloadable version of BioCyc that includes the Pathway Tools software provides more speed and power than the BioCyc Web site.

Experimental datasets of crystal structures and binding affinities for diverse protein-ligand complexes. Some datasets are generated in house while others are collected from the literature or deposited by academic labs, national centers, and the pharmaceutical industry. For the community to improve their approaches, they need exceptional datasets to train scoring functions and develop new docking algorithms. They aim to provide the highest quality data for a diverse collection of proteins and small molecule ligands. They need input from the community in developing target priorities. Ideal targets will have many high-quality crystal structures (apo and 10-20 bound to diverse ligands) and affinity data for 25 compounds that range in size, scaffold, and logP. It is best if the ligand set has several congeneric series that span a broad range of affinity, with low nanomolar to mid-micromolar being most desirable. They prefer Kd data over Ki data over IC50 data (no % activity data). They will determine solubility, pKa, logP/logD data for the ligands whenever possible. They have augmented some donated IC50 data by determining Kon/Koff and ITC data.

The RNA modification database provides a comprehensive listing of posttranscriptionally modified nucleosides from RNA. Information provided for each nucleoside includes: the type of RNA in which it occurs and phylogenetic distribution; common chemical name and symbol; Chemical Abstracts registry number and index name; chemical structure; initial literature citations for structural characterization or occurrence, and for chemical synthesis. Both the structural diversity and extent of posttranscriptional modification in RNA is remarkable, with 107 different nucleosides presently known in all types of RNA. The discovery of new modified nucleosides as well as increasing knowledge of the array of functional roles of modification, based largely on extensive studies of tRNA, mandates a need for a comprehensive database of RNA nucleosides. The RNA Modification Database is maintained as an extension of the initial version published in mid-1994. The database consists of all RNA-derived ribonucleosides of known structure, including those from established sequence positions, as well as those detected or characterized from hydrolysates of RNA. The information provided permits access to the modified nucleoside literature through provision of both computer-searchable Chemical Abstracts registry numbers and key literature citations. This database also provides an historical record of the initial reports of occurrence, characterization and chemical synthesis of modified nucleosides from RNA. It is our judgement that the total number of RNA nucleosides listed, and the chemical structures reported, are very accurate. However, the distributions listed are in some cases a matter of concern, due primarily to the possibility of inhomogeneity of the RNA isolate and the use of methods of nucleoside identification that are not sufficiently rigorous. Reinvestigation of some of the unusual or single-report source distributions is warranted, and will likely lead to future refinements in the listings. The authors invite comments concerning new entries, errors or omissions and on the format presently used for electronic access to the database.

http://u-compare.org/

An integrated text mining / natural language processing system based on the Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA) Framework. It allows interoperability of text mining tools and allows the creation of text mining workflows, comparison and visualization of tools. U-Compare can be launched straight from the web or downloaded. As the name implies comparison of components and workflows is a central feature of the system. U-Compare allows sets of components to be run in parallel on the same inputs and then automatically generates statistics for all possible combinations of these components. Once a workflow has been created in U-Compare it can be exported and shared with other users or used with other UIMA compatible tools and so in addition to comparison, U-Compare also functions as a general purpose workflow creation tool. It contains a repository of 50+ biomedical text mining components. These components are included in the U-Compare single-click-to-launch package, ready to use by just drag-and-drop. You can also use this repository independent from the U-Compare system. Link with Taverna It has a link with Taverna for scientific workflows, http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/26/19/2486.abstract, where you can use U-Compare and its workflow from within the Taverna workflow. There are two ways, the U-Compare Taverna plugin and the U-Compare command line mode as a Taverna activity. We have recently integrated it with Peter Murray-Rust''''s OSCAR for Chemistry (see http://www.nactem.ac.uk/cheta/) Web Demo: http://www.nactem.ac.uk/software/cheta/

Portal supporting the North East Bioinformatics Collaborative''s project to sequence the genome of the Little Skate. Provided is a clearinghouse for Little Skate Genome Project and other publicly available Skate and Ray (Batoidea) genome data, and tools for data visualization and analysis. Little Skate Genome Project The little skate (Leucoraja erinacea) is a chondrichthyan (cartilaginous) fish native to the east coast of North America. Elasmobranchs (Skates, Rays, and Sharks) exhibit many fundamental vertebrate characteristics, including a neural crest, jaws and teeth, an adaptive immune system, and a pressurized circulatory system. These characteristics have been exploited to promote understanding about human physiology, immunology, stem cell biology, toxicology, neurobiology and regeneration. The development of standardized experimental protocols in elasmobranchs such as L. erinacea and the spiny dogfish shark (Squalus acanthias) has further positioned these organisms as important biomedical and developmental models. Despite this distinction, the only reported chondrichthyan genome is the low coverage (1.4x) draft genome of the elephant shark (Callorhinchus milii). To close the evolutionary gaps in available elasmobranch genome sequence data, and generate critical genomic resources for future biomedical study, the genome of L. erinacea is being sequenced by the North East Bioinformatics Collaborative (NEBC). As close evolutionary relatives, the little skate sequence will facilitate studies that employ dogfish shark and other elasmobranchs as model organisms. Skate tools include the SkateBLAST and the Skate Genome Browsers: Little Skate Mitochondrion, Thorny Skate Mitochondrion, and Ocellate Spot Skate Mitochondrion.
