http://www.mechanobio.info/

Portal that deals with the process of mechanotransduction, providing in-depth, regularly updated reviews on the mechanics of cellular and molecular function. Each review is written by scientists and subsequently peer reviewed by experts in the field to ensure the content is accurate, reliable and up to date. Each review emphasizes the functional and mechanical aspects of a process, rather than the genetic aspects, with the aim of making this resource accessible to a wider audience. MBInfo is an ideal resource for scientists working in alternative fields, individuals working in industries where products are based on biological principles or students seeking a reliable introduction to a given cellular process. Each topic is written in a pyramid structure. The top of the pyramid is represented by an overview page, providing a basic description of a given function or process. These pages target a broad spectrum of readers and assume only a basic understanding of biology. Further down the pyramid, the reader will encounter the steps involved in the process described and functional modules that address specific mechanical aspects. These pages outline the protein complexes involved and the mechanisms by which they achieve the given process or function. These pages assume the readers have a more in-depth knowledge of scientific terms and principles. For every topic, a series of graphics and/or animations are available. These supplement the reviews, clarify information and guide the reader through complex processes pictorially. This makes MBInfo an ideal teaching resource, whether in the classroom or for clients trying to understand your product. All images and text are copyright protected and are for personal use only. Current Topics include: * Cellular Structures in Mechanosensing and Cell Motility * Methods in the Study of Mechanobiology * Nuclear Mechanotransduction Almost 100 stand alone Glossary Terms are now available. These include short definitions or summaries of proteins and processes that relate to broader topics discussed within the site. Browse an extensive range of figures, tables and videos in our resources section. New quizzes and other interactive content can also be found.

Re-annotated gene expression / proteomics data from GEO by relating all probe IDs to Entrez Gene IDs once every three months, enabling you to find data from GEO, and compare them from different platforms and species. Platform Annotations adds the latest annotations to any uploaded probe / gene ID list file. Platform Comparison compares any two platforms to find corresponding probes mapping to the same gene. Cross-species mapping maps platform annotations to other species. Gene Search finds deposited platforms and samples in GEO that contain a list of genes. GPL ID Search finds the GPL ID (GEO platform ID) for your array. You can also download the latest annotations files for all arrays and their comprehensive universal gene identifier table, which relates all types of gene / protein / clone identifiers to Entrez Gene IDs for all species. Note: The database was last updated on 4/30/2011. They have successfully mapped 54932732 individual probes from 385099 GEO samples measuring 3519 GEO platforms across 217 species.

http://goblet.molgen.mpg.de/cgi-bin/goblet2008/goblet.cgi

Tool that performs annotation based on GO and pathway terms for anonymous cDNA or protein sequences. It uses the species independent GO structure and vocabulary together with a series of protein databases collected from various sites, to perform a detailed GO annotation by sequence similarity searches. The sensitivity and the reference protein sets can be selected by the user. GOblet runs automatically and is available as a public service on our web server. GOblet expects query sequences to be in FASTA-Format (with header-lines). Protein and nucleotide sequences are accepted. Total size of all sequences submitted per request should not be larger than 50kb currently. For security reasons: Larger post's will be rejected. Due to limited capacities the queries may be processed in batches depending on the server load. The output of the BLAST job is filtered automatically and the relevant hits are displayed. In addition, the respective GO-terms are shown together with the complete GO-hierarchy of parent terms., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://pga.mgh.harvard.edu/primerbank/

Database of human and mouse primer pairs for gene expression analysis by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and quantitative PCR (qPCR). A total of 306,800 primers covering most known human and mouse genes can be accessed from the PrimerBank database, together with information on these primers such as T(m), location on the transcript and amplicon size. For each gene, at least one primer pair has been designed and in many cases alternative primer pairs exist. Primers have been designed to work under the same PCR conditions, thus facilitating high-throughput QPCR. All primers in PrimerBank were carefully designed to ensure gene specificity. All experimental validation data for mouse primers are available from PrimerBank. You can submit your primers. They will be added to the database once they are properly QCd.
