MBGD is a database for comparative analysis of completely sequenced microbial genomes, the number of which is now growing rapidly. The aim of MBGD is to facilitate comparative genomics from various points of view such as ortholog identification, paralog clustering, motif analysis and gene order comparison. The heart of MBGD function is to create orthologous or homologous gene cluster table. For this purpose, similarities between all genes are precomputed and stored into the database, in addition to the annotations of genes such as function categories that were assigned by the original authors and motifs that were found in the translated sequence. Using these homology data, MBGD dynamically creates orthologous gene cluster table. Users can change a set of organisms or cutoff parameters to create their own orthologous grouping. Based on this cluster table, users can further analyze multiple genomes from various points of view with the functions such as global map comparison, local map comparison, multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic tree construction.

IRIS is a toxicology data file on the National Library of Medicine''s (NLM) Toxicology Data Network. It contains data in support of human health risk assessment. It is compiled by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and contains over 500 chemical records. It is a compilation of electronic reports on specific substances found in the environment and their potential to cause human health effects. IRIS was initially developed for EPA staff in response to a growing demand for consistent information on substances for use in risk assessments, decision-making and regulatory activities. The information in IRIS is intended for those without extensive training in toxicology, but with some knowledge of health sciences. The Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) is an electronic database containing information on human health effects that may result from exposure to various substances in the environment. IRIS is prepared and maintained by the EPAs National Center for Environmental Assessment (NCEA) within the Office of Research and Development (ORD). The heart of the IRIS system is its collection of searchable documents that describe the health effects of individual substances and that contain descriptive and quantitative information in the following categories: -Noncancer effects: Oral reference doses and inhalation reference concentrations (RfDs and RfCs, respectively) for effects known or assumed to be produced through a nonlinear (possibly threshold) mode of action. In most instances, RfDs and RfCs are developed for the noncarcinogenic effects of substances. -Cancer effects: Descriptors that characterize the weight of evidence for human carcinogenicity, oral slope factors, and oral and inhalation unit risks for carcinogenic effects. Where a nonlinear mode of action is established, RfD and RfC values may be used.

http://www.antibodypedia.com/

Open-access database of antibodies against human proteins developed through collaboration between Antibodypedia AB and the Nature Publishing Group. It aims to provide the scientific community and antibody distributors alike with information on the effectiveness of specific antibodies in specific applications--to help scientists select the right antibody for the right application. Antibodypedia's mission is to promote the functional understanding of the human proteome and expedite analysis of potential biomarkers discovered through clinical efforts. To this end, they have developed an open-access, curated, searchable database containing annotated and scored affinity reagents to aid users in selecting antibodies tailored to specific biological and biomedical assays. They envisage Antibodypedia as a virtual repository of validated antibodies against all human, and ultimately most model-organism, proteins. Such a tool will be exploitable to identify affinity reagents to document protein expression patterns in normal and pathological states and to purify proteins alone and in complex for structural and functional analyses. They hope to promote characterization of the roles and interplay of proteins and complexes in human health and disease. They encourage commercial providers to submit information regarding their inventory of antibodies with links to quality control data. Independent users can submit their own application-specific experimental data using standard validation criteria (supportive or non-supportive) developed with the assistance of an international advisory board recruited from academic research institutions. Users can also comment on specific antibodies without submitting validation data.

PhosphoNET is an open-access, online knowledgebase developed by Kinexus Bioinformatics Corporation to foster the study of cell signaling systems to advance biomedical research in academia and industry. PhosphoNET is the world''s largest repository of known and predicted information on human phosphorylation sites, their evolutionary conservation and the identities of protein kinases that may target these sites. Search by protein name, UniProt number, IPI number, or 15 AA P-site sequence. PhosphoNET presently holds data on over 650,000 known and putative phosphorylation sites (P-sites) in over 23,000 human proteins that have been collected from the scientific literature and other reputable websites. Over 14% of these phospho-sites have been experimentally validated. The rest have been predicted with a novel P-Site Predictor algorithm developed at Kinexus with academic partners at the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University. With the PhosphoNET Evolution module, this website also provides information about cognate proteins in over 20 other species that may share these human phospho-sites. This helps to define the most functionally important phospho-sites as these are expected to be highly conserved in nature. With the Kinase Predictor module, listings are provided for the top 50 human protein kinases that are likely to phosphorylate each of these phospho-sites using another proprietary kinase substrate prediction algorithm developed at Kinexus. Our kinase substrate predictions are based on deduced consensus phosphorylation site amino acid frequency scoring matrices that we have determined for each of ~500 different human protein kinases. The specificity matrices are generated directly from the primary amino acid sequences of the catalytic domains of these kinases, and when available, have proven to correlate strongly with substrate prediction matrices based on alignment of known substrates of these kinases. The higher the score, the better the prospect that a kinase will phosphorylate a given site. Over 30 million kinase-substrate phospho-site pairs are quantified in PhosphoNET. Kinexus Bioinformatics Corporation has the capability to test most of these putative interactions in vitro for our clients.

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~jernst/stem/

The Short Time-series Expression Miner (STEM) is a Java program for clustering, comparing, and visualizing short time series gene expression data from microarray experiments (~8 time points or fewer). STEM allows researchers to identify significant temporal expression profiles and the genes associated with these profiles and to compare the behavior of these genes across multiple conditions. STEM is fully integrated with the Gene Ontology (GO) database supporting GO category gene enrichment analyses for sets of genes having the same temporal expression pattern. STEM also supports the ability to easily determine and visualize the behavior of genes belonging to a given GO category or user defined gene set, identifying which temporal expression profiles were enriched for these genes. (Note: While STEM is designed primarily to analyze data from short time course experiments it can be used to analyze data from any small set of experiments which can naturally be ordered sequentially including dose response experiments.) Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

http://mgc.nci.nih.gov/

NIH initiative project to provide full-length open reading frame (FL-ORF) clones for human, mouse, and rat genes, cow. MGC cDNA clones were obtained by screening of cDNA libraries, by transcript-specific RT-PCR cloning, and by DNA synthesis of cDNA inserts. All MGC sequences are deposited in GenBank and clones can be purchased from distributors of IMAGE consortium. With conclusion of MGC project in March 2009, GenBank records of MGC sequences will be frozen, without further updates. Since definition of what constitutes full-length coding region for some of genes and transcripts for which they have MGC clones will likely change in future, users planning to order MGC clones will need to monitor for these changes. Users can make use of genome browsers and gene-specific databases, such as the UCSC Genome browser, NCBI's Map Viewer, and Entrez Gene, to view relevant regions of genome (browsers) or gene-related information (Entrez Gene).

Specific short oligonucleotide sequences that enhance pre-mRNA splicing when present in exons, termed exonic splicing enhancers (ESEs), play important roles in constitutive and alternative splicing (ESE References). A hybrid computational/experimental method, RESCUE-ESE, was recently developed for identifying sequences with ESE activity. In this approach, specific hexanucleotide sequences are identified as candidate ESEs on the basis that they have both significantly higher frequency of occurrence in exons than in introns and also significantly higher frequency in exons with weak (non-consensus) splice sites than in exons with strong (consensus) splice sites. Representative hexamers from ten different classes of candidate ESEs, together with 6 or 7 bases of flanking sequence context on each side, were introduced into a weak (poorly spliced) exon in a splicing reporter construct. These reporter minigenes were then transfected into cultured cells, where they are transcribed and spliced, and the relative level of inclusion of the test exon was assayed by quantitative (radio-labeled) RT-PCR. Point mutants of these sequences were also analyzed to confirm the precise motifs responsible for ESE activity. The RESCUE-ESE approach identified 238 hexamers as candidate ESEs using a large database of human genes of known exon-intron structure containing over 30,000 nonredudant exons. In more recent analyses by Yeo et al., the RESCUE-ESE approach was utilized to predict hexamers as candidate ESEs in other vertebrate genes, namely, Fugu rubipes, Zebrafish and Mouse. This allows the identification of motifs that are conserved in vertebrates. This web server allows a sequence to be checked for presence of these candidate ESE hexamers.
