The Protein Coil Library is a library of protein structure fragments derived from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). The fragments in this library are those fragments in the PDB that cannot be classified as either alpha-helix or beta-strand. Three-dimensional structures as well as side-chain and backbone torsion angles are stored in the database. The Protein Coil Library allows rapid and comprehensive access to non-alpha-helix and non-beta-strand fragments contained in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). The library contains both sequence and structure information together with calculated torsion angles for both the backbone and side chains. Several search options are implemented, including a query function that uses output from popular PDB-culling servers directly. Additionally, several popular searches are stored and updated for immediate access. The library is a useful tool for exploring conformational propensities, turn motifs, and a recent model of the unfolded state. The library stores the complete torsion angle descriptions for the fragments as well as the three dimensional structures of the fragments themselves. The goal of extracting and pre-calculating this data is to allow for more straightforward investigation of peptide structure without the background of secondary structure elements. In addition to searching by PDB ID, it is possible to download a particular size class, perform a batch search of PDB/chain ID''s, or download precompiled lists of PDB ID''s of interest (PDB Select, etc.). For users interested in browsing the entire database at once or maintaining their own locally-updated copy of the library, FTP access instructions are also provided. The files stored in the coil library FTP site or returned after a batch search are organized heirarchically by PDB ID. This is done to reduce filesystem access times and fascilitate searches using the UNIX find utility. At the lowest directory level in the heirarchy, files are further sorted by fragment length. As a result, the number of files in a particular directory is generally less then 50, yielding relatively fast access on UNIX/Linux filesystems. The heirarchical organization is based on the middle two letters of the PDB ID. For example, hen egg lysozyme, which has a PDB ID of 1HEL, will be located in the directory h/he/. At the final level, fragments of varying sizes are stored in directories that correspond to their fragment length. Again, using lysozyme as an example, any seven-residue fragments, if they exist, will reside in the directory h/he/7/. Similarly, seven-residue fragments from 2HEX and 1HE0 will also be in this location. Sponsors: The Protein Coil Library is funded by Johns Hopkins University.

http://animal.dna.affrc.go.jp/agp/index.html

Database of comparative gene mapping between species to assist the mapping of the genes related to phenotypic traits in livestock. The linkage maps, cytogenetic maps, polymerase chain reaction primers of pig, cattle, mouse and human, and their references have been included in the database, and the correspondence among species have been stipulated in the database. AGP is an animal genome database developed on a Unix workstation and maintained by a relational database management system. It is a joint project of National Institute of Agrobiological Sciences (NIAS) and Institute of the Society for Techno-innovation of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (STAFF-Institute), under cooperation with other related research institutes. AGP also contains the Pig Expression Data Explorer (PEDE), a database of porcine EST collections derived from full-length cDNA libraries and full-length sequences of the cDNA clones picked from the EST collection. The EST sequences have been clustered and assembled, and their similarity to sequences in RefSeq, and UniGene determined. The PEDE database system was constructed to store sequences and similarity data of swine full-length cDNA libraries and to make them available to users. It provides interfaces for keyword and ID searches of BLAST results and enables users to obtain sequence data and names of clones of interest. Putative SNPs in EST assemblies have been classified according to breed specificity and their effect on coding amino acids, and the assemblies are equipped with an SNP search interface. The database contains porcine nucleotide sequences and cDNA clones that are ready for analyses such as expression in mammalian cells, because of their high likelihood of containing full-length CDS. PEDE will be useful for researchers who want to explore genes that may be responsible for traits such as disease susceptibility. The database also offers information regarding major and minor porcine-specific antigens, which might be investigated in regard to the use of pigs as models in various medical research applications.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 20,2019.The COG-database has become a powerful tool in the field of comparative genomics. The construction of this data-base is based on sequence homologies of proteins from different completely sequenced genomes. Highly homologous proteins are assigned to clusters of orthologous groups. The updated collection of orthologous protein sets for prokaryotes and eukaryotes is expected to be a useful platform for functional annotation of newly sequenced genomes, including those of complex eukaryotes, and genome-wide evolutionary studies. The availability of multiple, essentially complete genome sequences of prokaryotes and eukaryotes spurred both the demand and the opportunity for the construction of an evolutionary classification of genes from these genomes. Such a classification system based on orthologous relationships between genes appears to be a natural framework for comparative genomics and should facilitate both functional annotation of genomes and large-scale evolutionary studies. Here is a major update of the previously developed system for delineation of Clusters of Orthologous Groups of proteins (COGs) from the sequenced genomes of prokaryotes and unicellular eukaryotes and the construction of clusters of predicted orthologs for 7 eukaryotic genomes, which we named KOGs after eukaryotic orthologous groups. The COG collection currently consists of 138,458 proteins, which form 4873 COGs and comprise 75% of the 185,505 (predicted) proteins encoded in 66 genomes of unicellular organisms. The eukaryotic orthologous groups (KOGs) include proteins from 7 eukaryotic genomes: three animals (the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster and Homo sapiens), one plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, two fungi (Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe), and the intracellular microsporidian parasite Encephalitozoon cuniculi. The current KOG set consists of 4852 clusters of orthologs, which include 59,838 proteins, or approximately 54% of the analyzed eukaryotic 110,655 gene products. Compared to the coverage of the prokaryotic genomes with COGs, a considerably smaller fraction of eukaryotic genes could be included into the KOGs; addition of new eukaryotic genomes is expected to result in substantial increase in the coverage of eukaryotic genomes with KOGs. Examination of the phyletic patterns of KOGs reveals a conserved core represented in all analyzed species and consisting of approximately 20% of the KOG set. This conserved portion of the KOG set is much greater than the ubiquitous portion of the COG set (approximately 1% of the COGs). In part, this difference is probably due to the small number of included eukaryotic genomes, but it could also reflect the relative compactness of eukaryotes as a clade and the greater evolutionary stability of eukaryotic genomes.

Generates data for use in developing and refining computational tools for comparing genomic sequence from multiple species. The NISC Comparative Sequencing Program's goal is to establish a data resource consisting of sequences for the same set of targeted genomic regions derived from multiple animal species. The broader program includes plans for a diverse set of analytical studies using the generated sequence and the publication of a series of papers describing the results of those analysis in peer-reviewed journals in a timely fashion. Experimentally, this project involves the shotgun sequencing of mapped BAC clones. For each BAC, an assembly is first performed when a sufficient number of sequence reads have been generated to provide full shotgun coverage of the clone. At that time, the assembled sequence is submitted to the HTGS division of GenBank. Subsequent refinements of the sequence, including the generation of higher-accuracy finished sequence, results in the updating of the sequence record in GenBank. By immediately submitting our BAC-derived sequences to GenBank, it makes their data available as a public service to allow colleagues to speed up their research, consistent with the now well-established routine of sequencing centers participating in the Human Genome Project. However, at the same time, it has made considerable investment in acquiring these mapping and sequence data, including sizable efforts of graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and other trainees. Furthermore, in most cases, large data sets involving multiple BAC sequences from multiple species must first be generated, often taking many months to accumulate, before the planned analysis can be performed and the resulting papers written and submitted for publication.

Portal providing access to metagenomics projects, data and tools supported by the DOE Joint Genome Institute (JGI). A primary motivation for metagenomics is that most microbes found in nature exist in complex, interdependent communities and cannot readily be grown in isolation in the laboratory. One can, however, isolate DNA or RNA from the community as a whole, and studies of such communities have revealed a diversity of microbes far beyond those found in culture collections. It is suspected that these uncultivated organisms must harbor considerable as-yet undiscovered genomic, functional, and metabolic features and capabilities. Thus to fully explore microbial genomics, it is imperative that we access the genomes of these elusive players.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 28,2025. These databases were constructed by extracting the organism specific ESTs from dbEST, removing polyA sequences from the ends and trimming 5' and 3' regions with greater than 25% N's in a 20 base pair window. These quality sequences were then aligned using the cap2 program and the consensus sequences thus generated put into a database that is available on the web. A number of parasitic organisms were chosen that have between 3000 and 15000 ESTs. The attempt here is to provide useful information and analyses to the scientific community without curating the results in any way. A total of 55192 ESTs, deposited into dbEST/GenBank, were included in the analyses. The resulting sequences have been clustered into nonredundant gene assemblies and deposited into a relational database that supports a variety of sequence and text searches. This database has been used to compare the gene assemblies using BLAST similarity comparisons to the public protein databases to identify putative genes. Of these new entries, approximately 15%-20% represent putative homologs with a conservative cutoff of p < 10(-9), thus identifying many conserved genes that are likely to share common functions with other well-studied organisms. Gene assemblies were also used to identify strain polymorphisms, examine stage-specific expression, and identify gene families. An interesting class of genes that are confined to members of this phylum and not shared by plants, animals, or fungi, was identified. These genes likely mediate the novel biological features of members of the Apicomplexa and hence offer great potential for biological investigation and as possible therapeutic targets.

ooTFD (object-oriented Transcription Factors Database) is a successor to TFD, the original Transcription Factors Database. This database is aimed at capturing information regarding the polypeptide interactions which comprise and define the properties of transcription factors. ooTFD contains information about transcription factor binding sites, as well as composite relationships within transcription factors, which frequently occur as multisubunit proteins that form a complex interface to cellular processes outside the transcription machinery through protein-protein interactions. ooTFD contains information represented in TFD but also allows the representation of containment, composite, and interaction relationships between transcription factor polypeptides. It is designed to represent information about all transcription factors, both eukaryotic and prokaryotic, basal as well as regulatory factors, and multiprotein complexes as well as monomers.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 23, 2016. ELISA is an online database that combines functional annotation with structure and sequence homology modeling to place proteins into sequence-structure-function neighborhoods. The atomic unit of the database is a set of sequences and structural templates that those sequences encode. A graph that is built from the structural comparison of these templates is called PDUG (protein domain universe graph). It introduces a method of functional inference through a probabilistic calculation done on an arbitrary set of PDUG nodes. Further, all PDUG structures are mapped onto all fully sequenced proteomes allowing an easy interface for evolutionary analysis and research into comparative proteomics. ELISA is the first database with applicability to evolutionary structural genomics explicitly in mind.

DoTS (Database Of Transcribed Sequences) is a human and mouse transcript index created from all publicly available transcript sequences. The input sequences are clustered and assembled to form the DoTS Consensus Transcripts that comprise the index. These transcripts are assigned stable identifiers of the form DT.123456 (and are often referred to as dots). The transcripts are in turn clustered to form putative DoTS Genes. These are assigned stable identifiers of the form DG.1234356. As of September 1, 2004, the DoTS annotation team has manually annotated 43,164 human and 78,054 mouse DoTS Transcripts (DTs), corresponding to 3,939 human and 7,752 mouse DoTS Genes (DGs). Use the manually annotated gene query to see the DoTS Transcripts that have been manually annotated. The focus of the DoTS project is integrating the various types of data (e.g., EST sequences, genomic sequence, expression data, functional annotation) in a structured manner which facilitates sophisticated queries that are otherwise not easy to perform. DoTS is built on the GUS Platform which includes a relational database that uses controlled vocabularies and ontologies to ensure that biologically meaningful queries can be posed in a uniform fashion. An easy way to start using the site is to search for DoTS Transcripts using an existing cDNA or mRNA sequence. Click on the BLAST tab at the top of the page and enter your sequence in the form provided. All the transcripts with significant sequence similarity to your query sequence will be displayed. Or use one of the provided queries to retrieve transcripts using a number of criteria. These queries are listed on the query page, which can also be reached by clicking on the tab marked query at the top of the page. Finally, the boolean query page allows these queries to be combined in a variety of ways. Sponsors: Funding provided by -NIH grant RO1-HG-01539-03 -DOE grant DE-FG02-00ER62893
