Griffin (G-protein-receptor interacting feature finding instrument) is a high-throughput system to predict GPCR - G-protein coupling selectively with the input of GPCR sequence and ligand molecular weight. This system consists of two parts: 1) HMM section using family specific multiple alignment of GPCRs, 2) SVM section using physico-chemical feature vectors in GPCR sequence. G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR), which is composed of seven transmembrane helices, play a role as interface of signal transduction. The external stimulation for GPCR, induce the coupling with G-protein (Gi/o, Gq/11, Gs, G12/13) followed by different kinds of signal transduction to inner cell. About half of distributed drugs are intending to control this GPCR - G-protein binding system, and therefore this system is important research target for the development of effective drug. For this purpose, it is necessary to monitor, effectively and comprehensively, of the activation of G-protein by identifying ligand combined with GPCR. Since, at present, it is difficult to construct such biochemical experiment system, if the answers for experimental results can be prepared beforehand by using bioinformatics techniques, large progress is brought to G-protein related drug design. Previous works for predicting GPCR-G protein coupling selectivity are using sequence pattern search, statistical models, and HMM representations showed high sensitivity of predictions. However, there are still no works that can predict with both high sensitivity and specificity. In this work we extracted comprehensively the physico-chemical parameters of each part of ligand, GPCR and G-protein, and choose the parameters which have strong correlation with the coupling selectivity of G-protein. These parameters were put as a feature vector, used for GPCR classification based on SVM.

http://www.ini.uzh.ch/

The mission of the Institute is to discover the key principles by which brains work and to implement these in artificial systems that interact intelligently with the real world. The Institute of Neuroinformatics is built of many people covering a wide range of disciplines and research areas. The major research projects and areas are listed below. - Behavior and Cognition: At the Institute of Neuroinformatics researchers investigate in Behavior and Cognition on various levels, ranging from neuronal circuit models of learning and adaptation over psychophysical experiments for color constancy up to modeling complex behavioral tasks such as exploration and goal-directed navigation. - Computation in Neural Circuits: By examining the brains of cats, rats and monkeys, and by making simulations of the cortex, INI hopes to learn how this circuit performs such widely different tasks. This knowledge might lead to advances in how computers are designed, and will certainly lead to advances in the subtlety and power of medical neuroscience. - Neurotechnologies: INI aims to harness the principles of biological computation, which can be expected to have a major impact on the technology market as autonomous intelligence pervades equipment, vehicles, buildings, utilities and clothing. Sponsors: INI is supported by European Union (EU), Gerbert Ruf Stiftung, Neuroscience Center (ZNZ), Swiss Confederation (KTI), Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH), Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF), University of Zurich (UZH), and VW Stiftung

http://www.iucnredlist.org/

A global evaluation of the conservation status of plant and animal species. The IUCN Red List plays a prominent role in guiding conservation activities of governments, NGOs and scientific institutions. The introduction in 1994 of a scientifically rigorous approach to determine risks of extinction that is applicable to all species, has become a world standard. In order to produce The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, the IUCN Global Species Programme working with the IUCN Survival Commission (SSC) and with members of IUCN draws on and mobilizes a network of scientists and partner organizations working in almost every country in the world, who collectively hold what is likely the most complete scientific knowledge base on the biology and conservation status of species. The IUCN Red List is underpinned by information management tools (the Species Information Service) which facilitate the collection, management and processing of species data from workshop to publication on The IUCN Red List.
