Imaging Probe Development Center (IPDC) (RRID:SCR_006744) IPDC data or information resource, database A core synthesis facility dedicated to the preparation of imaging probes, initially for intramural NIH scientists, and later, for the extramural scientific community. The IPDC provides a mechanism for the production of sensitive probes for use by imaging scientists who cannot obtain such probes commercially. The probes to be made will encompass all major imaging modalities including radionuclide, magnetic resonance, and optical. Nearly all of these imaging probes are not commercially available, nor are they viable commercial products, and most are new compositions-of-matter (http://nihlibrary.ors.nih.gov/ipdcdb/IPDCDB_Search.asp). The IPDC was born from the realization that imaging technologies will be crucial in basic, translational, and clinical research in the 21st century, and that the synthetic chemistry required to reliably produce imaging probes lies at the heart of research within imaging technologies. To this end, the IPDC has recruited the equipment and expertise to concurrently synthesize multiple types of imaging probes for bioscientists with diverse research interests, encompassing all imaging modalities, including optical, radionuclide, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance. The IPDC embodies an exciting new approach to apply and combine chemistry and imaging sciences toward specific problems in biology and medical sciences, and will be a truly interdisciplinary effort aimed at maximizing returns from the revolutionary new discoveries being described in modern imaging. A significant part of the IPDC will also be directed, independently, to the discovery of new imaging approaches and compositions. The IPDC houses scientific staff, mostly chemists, who have interests and expertise in one or more aspects of molecular imaging. The IPDC is generating known and novel imaging probes for targeting receptors, cells, and tissues, and for preclinical in vivo evaluations by its intramural collaborators. Many such interesting agents have been described in the scientific literature, but are often not explored further due to lack of a reliable supply of reagent. One aspect of the IPDC''s mission is to rectify this situation. IPDC-supplied reagents will not be limited to one imaging modality, but will include the flexible application of diverse technologies. Also, the IPDC will seek to develop novel state-of-the-art imaging probes in collaboration with biological and biomedical intramural scientists who can provide or suggest suitable targeting agent/receptor pairs. The Imaging Probe Development Center (IPDC) was initiated in the incubator space of the Common Fund and has transitioned to the intramural program of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. imaging, probe, optical, radionuclide, ultrasound, magnetic resonance, ct, x-ray, fmri, mri, near ir fluorescence, pet, spect, tem, molecular library has parent organization: NHLBI Division of Intramural Research NIH Roadmap for Medical Research PMID:17994866 nlx_146256 SCR_006744 Imaging Probe Development Center 2026-08-29 11:29:48 0
CAPS Database

CAPS Database (RRID:SCR_006862) CAPS-DB data or information resource, database It is a structural classification of helix-cappings or caps compiled from protein structures. Caps extracted from protein structures have been structurally classified based on geometry and conformation and organized in a tree-like hierarchical classification where the different levels correspond to different properties of the caps. CASP-DB is fully browsable and searchable and is regularly updated. The regions of the polypeptide chain immediately preceding or following a helix are known as Nt- and Ct cappings, respectively. Cappings play a central role stabilizing helices due to lack of intrahelical hydrogen bonds in the first and last turn. Sequence patterns of amino acid type preferences have been derived for cappings but the structural motifs associated to them are still unclassified. CAPS-DB is a database of clusters of structural patterns of different capping types. The clustering algorithm is based in the geometry and the space conformation of these regions. CAPS-DB is a relational database that allows the user to search, browse, inspect and retrieve structural data associated to cappings. The contents of CAPS-DB might be of interest to a wide range of scientist covering different areas such as protein design and engineering, structural biology and bioinformatics.

SCOP: Structural Classification of Proteins (RRID:SCR_007039) data or information resource, database The Structural Classification of Proteins (SCOP) database is a comprehensive ordering of all proteins of known structure, according to their evolutionary and structural relationships. Protein domains in SCOP are hierarchically classified into families, superfamilies, folds and classes. The continual accumulation of sequence and structural data allows more rigorous analysis and provides important information for understanding the protein world and its evolutionary repertoire. SCOP participates in a project that aims to rationalize and integrate the data on proteins held in several sequence and structure databases. As part of this project, starting with release 1.63, we have initiated a refinement of the SCOP classification, which introduces a number of changes mostly at the levels below superfamily. The pending SCOP reclassification will be carried out gradually through a number of future releases. In addition to the expanded set of static links to external resources, available at the level of domain entries, we have started modernization of the interface capabilities of SCOP allowing more dynamic links with other databases. bio.tools, FASEB list is listed by: Debian

NeuroSNP Project (RRID:SCR_007029) NeuroSNP data or information resource, database The goal of this project is to aid genetic association studies of addiction by creating a resource of biologically relevant genes, pathways and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The primary users of the NeuroSNP resource are investigators conducting genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of addiction-related phenotypes. NeuroSNP will allow investigators to identify biologically relevant genes for addiction based on curated expert knowledge, and assess the coverage of these genes provided by commercial SNP microarrays. If investigators wish to ensure the coverage of certain addiction-related genes is optimal, NeuroSNP provides a mechanism for supplementation. While commercial SNP microarrays offer affordable and comprehensive coverage of the human genome, some diseases have biologically relevant genomic regions that may require additional coverage. Addiction, for example, is believed to be influenced by complex interactions involving several genes and pathways. NIDA has assembled a number of investigators specializing in fields such as genetics, pharmacogenetics, bioinformatics and neurobiology through a Request for Information. These investigators have pooled their expert knowledge to produce a database of addiction-related genes and SNPs. Commercial SNP microarrays, such as those offered by Affymetrix and Illumina, are then analyzed to determine how well certain addiction-related genes are covered. When the coverage is less than optimal, a SNP prioritization scheme is used to supplement the commercial array with the most biologically informative markers. For example, SNPs in coding regions, promoters, and evolutionary conserved regions are selected first. has parent organization: Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis; Missouri; USA nif-0000-21983 SCR_007029 NeuroSNP Project 2026-08-29 11:29:47 3

SysZNF - C2H2 Zinc Finger genes (RRID:SCR_007056) SysZNF data or information resource, database THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented September 2, 2016. SysZNF is an information resource for C2H2 Zinc Finger genes in humans and mice. C2H2 Zinc Finger genes (C2H2-ZNF) constitute the largest class of transcription factors in humans and mouse. C2H2 zinc finger proteins primarily bind to DNA. In most cases, they attach to regions near certain genes and turn the genes on and off as needed. The researches on these genes show light on the evolution of gene regulation systems and development. Therefore, we develop SysZNF (Systematical information resource of Zinc Finger genes) to collect the information related to C2H2 Zinc Finger genes. The aim of SysZNF was to provide a user-friendly interface for rendering the information (DNA, Expression, Protein, Reference and so on) of each C2H2-ZNF (e.g., ZNF10) and to enable a comprehensive analysis of C2H2-ZNF. This project was supported by the Proteome-Center at Rostock University (PCRU) who conceives the concept of the database and Key laboratory of Systems biology at the Shanghai Institute for Biological Sciences (SIBS) who implemented the database.

Amino Acid Index Database (RRID:SCR_007044) data or information resource, database AAindex is a database of numerical indices representing various physicochemical and biochemical properties of amino acids and pairs of amino acids. AAindex consists of three sections now: AAindex1 for the amino acid index of 20 numerical values, AAindex2 for the amino acid mutation matrix and AAindex3 for the statistical protein contact potentials. All data are derived from published literature. An amino acid index is a set of 20 numerical values representing any of the different physicochemical and biological properties of amino acids. The AAindex1 section of the Amino Acid Index Database is a collection of published indices together with the result of cluster analysis using the correlation coefficient as the distance between two indices. This section currently contains 544 indices. Another important feature of amino acids that can be represented numerically is the similarity between amino acids. Thus, a similarity matrix, also called a mutation matrix, is a set of 210 numerical values, 20 diagonal and 20x19/2 off-diagonal elements, used for sequence alignments and similarity searches. The AAindex2 section of the Amino Acid Index Database is a collection of published amino acid mutation matrices together with the result of cluster analysis. This section currently contains 94 matrices. In the release 9.0, we added a collection of published protein pairwise contact potentials to AAindex as AAindex3. This section currently contains 47 contact potential matrices.

UniTrap (RRID:SCR_007046) data or information resource, database A curated collection of all the trapped ES cell clones. Gene-trapping is a valuable tool that uses random mutagenesis to create hypomorphic or null alleles by insertion of exogenous DNA. Since numerous public and private projects have been performing gene trapping over the last few years,it is natural that large overlaps exist and some vectors produce better knock-outs than others due to their insertion site. Considering the high need to develop a comprehensive database that would include both public and private data to provide public access to this essential biological resource, we developed UniTrap, a curated collection of all the trapped ES cell clones, collected from public and private databases. We have developed a bioinformatics pipeline to automate the identification and characterization of trapped genes starting from their transcriptional sequence tags.We process gene trap sequence tags from ES cell clones to generate ‘UniTraps’, i.e. distinct collections of unambiguous insertions at the same subgenic region of annotated genes (RefSeq and Ensembl genes). The UniTrap resource contains data relative to well-known trapped genes. We aim to provide the wet lab researchers with a comprehensive, regularly updated database and curated tools for(i) identifying and comparing the clones carrying a trap into the genes of interest,(ii) evaluating the severity of the mutation to the protein function in each independent trapping event, and(iii) supplying complete information to perform PCR, RT-PCR and restriction experiments to verify the clone and identify the exact point of vector insertion. es cell clones, gene-trapping, pcr, rt-pcr nif-0000-03615 SCR_007046 UniTrap 2026-08-29 11:29:55 3
