This is a database of microsatellite sequences (short tandem repeats useful in gene comparison and kinship studies) present in 80 genomes. Users can search the database by microsatellite type, repeat unit length (mono- to hexa-nucleotide), repeat number, microsatellite length and repeat sequence class. They can also search by specifying EST, cDNA, CDS identity or by using Gene Index, GenBank, UniGene IDs. Microsatellites, also known as simple sequence repeats (SSRs) or simple tandem repeats (STRs), have extensively been exploited as molecular markers for diverse applications including genome characterization and mapping. Recently, their role in gene regulation and genome evolution has also been discussed widely. We have developed UgMicroSatdb (Unigene MicroSatellite database), a web based relational database of microsatellites present in unigene sequences covering 80 genomes. UgMicroSatdb allows microsatellite search using multiple parameters like microsatellite type simple (perfect) and compound (perfect and imperfect), repeat unit length (mono- to hexa-nucleotide), repeat number, microsatellite length and repeat sequence class. Microsatellites can also be retrieved by specifying EST, cDNA, CDS identity or by using Gene Index, GenBank, UniGene IDs. The database also provides information about trinucleotide repeats encoding various amino acids. Such codon repeats can be searched by specifying characteristics of coded amino acids like charge (basic, acidic or neutral), polarity (polar or non-polar) and their hydrophobic or hydrophilic nature. The nucleotide sequences of the target UniGenes are also provided to facilitate primer designing for PCR amplification of any desired microsatellite.

SYSTOMONAS is a comprehensive database of molecular networks in Pseudomonas focusing on Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We use a systems biology approach to get a deeper understanding of all cellular processes of P. aeruginosa during infection. Our long term goal is the development of a dynamic model simulating P. aeruginosa during infection. The basis for such an approach is SYSTOMONAS, a comprehensive database that includes systems data from all levels of analysis as microarray and proteomics data, metabolite measurements, sequence data, gene-regulatory networks and enzyme data. Therefore, we started with metabolomics analysis and extended to transcriptomics, genomics, and proteomics aspects. Along with the wet lab results additional data is stored, which is extracted from literature or derived from other external databases. Major sources of SYSTOMONAS are KEGG, PRODORIC, BRENDA (see section ''Sources''), which are partly stored via the data warehouse system and partly dynamically connected via SOAP, a platform-independent data transfer protocol. Comparing a Pseudomonas protein of interest with other well-characterized proteins may deliver useful insights into the evolution, distribution, and species specific function. Therefore, we searched for all deduced proteins of the SYSTOMONAS database for orthologous proteins in other Pseudomonas species to obtain orthologous protein clusters.

This is a dataset of clinical HIV sequences, including a method of decoding the evolutionary pathways by which HIV evolves drug resistance. "Fitness landscape" describing how HIV proteins can evolve, is shown as a kinetic network. Drug resistance is a major problem in the treatment of AIDS, due to the very high mutation rate of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and subsequent rapid development of resistance to new drugs. Identification of mutations associated with drug resistance is critical for both individualized treatment selection and new drug design. We have performed an automated mutation analysis of HIV Type 1 (HIV-1) protease and reverse transcriptase (RT) from approximately 50,000 AIDS patient plasma samples sequenced by Specialty Laboratories Inc. from 1999 to mid-2002. This dataset provides a nearly complete mutagenesis of HIV protease and enables the calculation of statistically significant Ka/Ks values for each individual amino acid mutation in protease and RT. Positive selection (i.e., Ka/Ks>1 indicating increased reproductive fitness) detected 19 of 23 known drug-resistant mutation positions in protease and 20 of 34 such positions in RT. We also discovered 163 new amino acid mutations in HIV protease and RT that are strong candidates for drug resistance or fitness. Our results match available independent data on protease mutations associated with specific drug treatments and mutations with positive reproductive fitness, with high statistical significance (the P values for the observed matches to occur by random chance are 1e-5.2 and 1e-16.6, respectively). Our data indicate that positive selection mapping is an analysis that can yield powerful insights from high-throughput sequencing of rapidly mutating pathogens. This database has been made possible by the generous contribution of HIV sequence chromatograms by Specialty Laboratories, Inc.

It collects information about scaffold/matrix attached regions and the nuclear matrix proteins that are supposed be involved in the interaction of these elements with the nuclear matrix. It covers the whole range from yeast to human. The SMAR table gives information on individual sequence elements of experimentally proven matrix binding activity. In release 2.3 it contains 500 entries. The sequences therein can be assigned to more than 150 genes from eukaryotic species ranging from yeast to human. The SMARbinder table contains 96 entries (release 2.3), but this figure does not reflect the number of independent S/MAR binding proteins. First of all, homologous factors from different species such as human and mouse SATB1 are given in different entries since they may differ in some aspects. Moreover, products of distinct but very similar genes or alternative splice products are included as separate entries. In some cases a more general term defining a S/MAR-binding activity may appear as one entry eventhough it might be composed of two or more subunits. The SMARbinder table will only contain those proteins of nuclear localization for which an interaction with a well defined S/MAR has been shown. Besides that the SMARbinder table will also include proteins that are proven components of the the salt-resitent (LIS-resistent) nuclear matrix. Gene entries, besides of giving the gene name in a long and a short (abbreviated) denomination, collect all links to individual S/MARs given in S/MARt DB and/or provide pointers to "S/MARbinders". The entries also contain links to transcription factor binding sites listed in TRANSFAC and give a link to the corresponding TRRD entry describing the regulatory features of the gene on different hierarchical levels.

http://bioinfo3d.cs.tau.ac.il/RsiteDB/

It is a database that details the interactions of extruded, unpaired RNA nucleotide bases. It presents and classifies the protein binding pockets that accommodate them, and also allows the recognition of similar protein binding patters involved in interactions with different RNA molecules. Given an unbound structure of a target protein, it allows the prediction of its RNA nucleotide binding sites. The goal of this database is to describe, classify, and predict the interactions between protein binding sites and single-stranded RNA bases. Specifically, RsiteDB describes the protein binding pockets that accommodate extruded nucleotides not involved in RNA base pairing. RsiteDB has two modes of operation. Analysis and classification of protein-RNA interactions: Given a protein-RNA complex RsiteDB analyzes its nucleotide and dinucleotide binding sites. It details the properties of the protein binding pockets that accommodate these extruded nucleotides and presents a list of proteins with similar binding pockets. These proteins may have a totally different overall sequences and structural folds. RsiteDB details and visualizes the features shared by all the binding sites classified to the same cluster. Prediction of RNA dinucleotide binding sites: Given a target, potentially unbound, protein structure we search its surface for regions similar to the created 3-D consensus binding patterns of RNA dinucleotides. The recognized regions are predicted to serve as binding sites. Using leave-one-out tests, the success rate of these predictions was estimated to be about 80%. It must be noted that currently we do not aim to predict whether a protein can bind RNA; rather, given an unbound RNA binding protein, our goal is to predict its binding sites and their modes of interaction. In addition, due to a low number of single nucleotide clusters, currently, we do not use them for the prediction.

An integrated database of human coding single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their annotations. Unlike other databases of similar nature, apart from integrating several coding SNPs (cSNPs) and protein-related information resources, we predict the implications of the non-synonymous SNPs (nsSNPs) using two well known algorithms (SIFT and PolyPhen). The results are presented in an intuitive visualization that depicts the cSNPs mapped onto protein domains and highlights those nsSNPs that are potentially damaging/deleterious or have been reported as disease allelic variants (based on OMIM). The query interface also supports searching for a list of proteins associated with any gene ontology term, pathway, disease term or gene family. Results can also be downloaded as a spreadsheet. The visualization page also provides links to several other related sources and dynamic links to literature references.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. A database of known ligand binding sites within the PDB which is navigable by PDB identifier or ligand 3 letter code e.g. NAD. Each binding site has a frequently updated register of structurally similar binding sites sharing atomic similarity detected by geometric hashing. Multiple alignments, structural superpositions and links to other structural databases are also available enabling further analysis. The rapid expansion of structural information for protein-ligand binding sites is potentially an important source of information in structure-based drug design and in understanding ligand cross reactivity and toxicity. We have developed a large database of ligand binding sites extracted automatically from the Protein Data Bank. This has been combined with a method for calculating binding site similarity based on geometric hashing to create a relational database for the retrieval of site similarity and binding site superposition. It contains an all-against-all comparison of binding sites and holds known protein-ligand binding sites, which are made accessible to data mining. Here we demonstrate its utility in two structure-based applications: in determining site similarity and in aiding the derivation of a receptor-based pharmacophore model.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on June 25, 2013. RISSC is a database of ribosomal 16S-23S spacer sequences intended mainly for molecular biology studies in typing, phylogeny and population genetics. Ribosomal spacers have proven to be extremely useful tools for typing and identifying closely related prokaryotes due to their high variability in size and/or sequence, much more so than the flanking 16S and 23S rRNA genes. These genes are commonly used to establish molecular relationships among microbes at a taxonomic level of species or higher (e.g genus, domain...). However their internal transcribed spacers (ITS) are much more useful to discriminate at the species or even strain level. Currently, many published papers are showing the growing importance of these regions of the ribosomal operon in these types of studies. A second, much shorter, ribosomal spacer can be found between rRNA genes 23S and 5S, also of phylogenetic interest. We intend to incorporate them into the database in the near future. By creating RISSC, our intention is to provide the scientific community with a comprehensive set of ribosomal spacer sequences, fully edited and characterized with a key feature as is the presence/absence of tRNA genes within them, ready to be used and compared with their own ITS sequences.
