IGDB.NSCLC database is aiming to facilitate and prioritize identified lung cancer genes and microRNAs for pathological and mechanistic studies of lung tumorigenesis and for developing new strategies for clinical interventions. We integrated and curated various lung cancer genomic datasets to present # lung cancer genes with somatic mutations, experimental supports and statistic significance in association with clinicopathological features; # genomic alterations with copy number alterations (CNA) detected by high density SNP arrays, gain or loss regions detected by arrayed comparative genome hybridization (aCGH), and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) detected by microsatellite markers; # aberrant expression of genes and microRNAs detected by various microarrays. IGDB.NSCLC database provides user friendly interfaces and searching functions to display multiple layers of evidence for detecting lung cancer target genes and microRNAs, especially emphasizing on concordant alterations: # genes with altered expression located in the CNA regions; # microRNAs with altered expression located in the CNA regions; # somatic mutation genes located in the CNA regions; and # genes associated with clinicopathological features located in the CNA regions. These concordant altered genes and miRNAs should be prioritized for further basic and clinical studies.

http://www.kabatdatabase.com/

The Kabat Database determines the combining site of antibodies based on the available amino acid sequences. The precise delineation of complementarity determining regions (CDR) of both light and heavy chains provides the first example of how properly aligned sequences can be used to derive structural and functional information of biological macromolecules. The Kabat database now includes nucleotide sequences, sequences of T cell receptors for antigens (TCR), major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules, and other proteins of immunological interest. The Kabat Database searching and analysis tools package is an ASP.NET web-based portal containing lookup tools, sequence matching tools, alignment tools, length distribution tools, positional correlation tools and much more. The searching and analysis tools are custom made for the aligned data sets contained in both the SQL Server and ASCII text flat file formats. The searching and analysis tools may be run on a single PC workstation or in a distributed environment. The analysis tools are written in ASP.NET and C# and are available in Visual Studio .NET 2003/2005/2008 formats. The Kabat Database was initially started in 1970 to determine the combining site of antibodies based on the available amino acid sequences at that time. Bence Jones proteins, mostly from human, were aligned, using the now-known Kabat numbering system, and a quantitative measure, variability, was calculated for every position. Three peaks, at positions 24-34, 50-56 and 89-97, were identified and proposed to form the complementarity determining regions (CDR) of light chains. Subsequently, antibody heavy chain amino acid sequences were also aligned using a different numbering system, since the locations of their CDRs (31-35B, 50-65 and 95-102) are different from those of the light chains. CDRL1 starts right after the first invariant Cys 23 of light chains, while CDRH1 is eight amino acid residues away from the first invariant Cys 22 of heavy chains. During the past 30 years, the Kabat database has grown to include nucleotide sequences, sequences of T cell receptors for antigens (TCR), major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules and other proteins of immunological interest. It has been used extensively by immunologists to derive useful structural and functional information from the primary sequences of these proteins.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/bioinformatics/NON-RED/index.html

A web tool to select biological sequences from a given set, with similarity / homology less than a user-defined level. This web-based application takes as input a set of N sequences and outputs a set of sequences of user-determined redundancy. Initially, the algorithm runs an all-against-all BLAST alignment on the input data set and creates an NxN matrix of pairwise distances defined by the similarity percentages. In the next step, the algorithm removes the sequence with the largest number of neighbors, causing that sequence not to be counted as a neighbor of any other sequence during the next iterations. It then reassesses the number of neighbors of each sequence and repeats the previous step until the sequences left over have no more neighbors. The user can specify the similarity (%) threshold and the minimum coverage length of the alignments. Sequences with a similarity below the threshold or a smaller coverage than the minimum length are not considered to be neighbors.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/SecStr/

A tool to Predict the Secondary Structure of a protein from its amino acid sequence alone. The SecStr package uses six different secondary structure prediction methods (Nagano, Garnier et al., Burges et al., Chou and Fasman , Lim and Dufton and Hider). The results of those methods are combined into a Joint Prediction Histogram (JPH) as described by Hamodrakas, 1988 and Hamodrakas et al., 1982. As previously mentioned, the SecStr package contains computer programs making use of the secondary structure prediction methods of Nagano, Garnier et al., Burges et al., Chou and Fasman, Lim and Dufton and Hider. These programs were written in Fortran. The results of individual prediction methods are combined as described by Hamodrakas (1988), using a Perl program, to produce joint prediction histograms (JPH), for three types of secondary structure, which may be presented separately on a Java Applet. The output may be given either in text or graphics mode. For the latter a Java capable browser is required.

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/CW-PRED/

A web tool for the prediction of Cell Wall-Anchored Proteins in Gram+ Bacteria. Gram-positive bacteria have surface proteins that are often implicated in virulence. A group of extracellular proteins attached to the cell wall contains an LPXTG-like motif that is target for cleavage and covalent coupling to peptidoglycan by sortase enzymes. A new Hidden Markov Model (HMM), an extension to the HMM model from Litou et al., http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18464329, was developed for predicting the LPXTG and LPXTG-like cell-wall proteins of Gram-positive bacteria. An analysis of 177 completely sequenced genomes has been performed as well. We identified in total 1456 cell-wall proteins, from which 1283 have the LPXTG motif, 39 the NPXTG motif, 53 have the LPXTA and 81 the LAXTG motif.

http://omicslab.genetics.ac.cn/GOEAST/

Gene Ontology Enrichment Analysis Software Toolkit (GOEAST) is a web based software toolkit providing easy to use, visualizable, comprehensive and unbiased Gene Ontology (GO) analysis for high-throughput experimental results, especially for results from microarray hybridization experiments. The main function of GOEAST is to identify significantly enriched GO terms among give lists of genes using accurate statistical methods. Compared with available GO analysis tools, GOEAST has the following unique features: * GOEAST supports analysis for data from various resources, such as expression data obtained using Affymetrix, illumina, Agilent or customized microarray platforms. GOEAST also supports non-microarray based experimental data. The web-based feature makes GOEAST very user friendly; users only have to provide a list of genes in correct formats. * GOEAST provides visualizable analysis results, by generating graphs exhibiting enriched GO terms as well as their relationships in the whole GO hierarchy. * Note that GOEAST generates separate graph for each of the three GO categories, namely biological process, molecular function and cellular component. * GOEAST allows comparison of results from multiple experiments (see Multi-GOEAST tool). The displayed color of each GO term node in graphs generated by Multi-GOEAST is the combination of different colors used in individual GOEAST analysis. Platform: Online tool
