http://www.genesigdb.org

Database of traceable, standardized, annotated gene signatures which have been manually curated from publications that are indexed in PubMed. The Advanced Gene Search will perform a One-tailed Fisher Exact Test (which is equivalent to Hypergeometric Distribution) to test if your gene list is over-represented in any gene signature in GeneSigDB. Gene expression studies typically result in a list of genes (gene signature) which reflect the many biological pathways that are concurrently active. We have created a Gene Signature Data Base (GeneSigDB) of published gene expression signatures or gene sets which we have manually extracted from published literature. GeneSigDB was creating following a thorough search of PubMed using defined set of cancer gene signature search terms. We would be delighted to accept or update your gene signature. Please fill out the form as best you can. We will contact you when we get it and will be happy to work with you to ensure we accurately report your signature. GeneSigDB is capable of providing its functionality through a Java RESTful web service.

http://bis.zju.edu.cn/pnatdb/

Natural Antisense Transcripts (NATs), a kind of regulatory RNAs, occur prevalently in plant genomes and play significant roles in physiological and/or pathological processes. PlantNATsDB (Plant Natural Antisense Transcripts DataBase) is a platform for annotating and discovering NATs by integrating various data sources involving approximately 2 million NAT pairs in 69 plant species. PlantNATsDB also provides an integrative, interactive and information-rich web graphical interface to display multidimensional data, and facilitate plant research community and the discovery of functional NATs. GO annotation and high-throughput small RNA sequencing data currently available were integrated to investigate the biological function of NATs. A ''''Gene Set Analysis'''' module based on GO annotation was designed to dig out the statistical significantly overrepresented GO categories from the specific NAT network. PlantNATsDB is currently the most comprehensive resource of NATs in the plant kingdom, which can serve as a reference database to investigate the regulatory function of NATs.

http://ekhidna.biocenter.helsinki.fi/dali_server

Network service for comparing protein structures in 3D. You submit the coordinates of a query protein structure and Dali compares them against those in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). You receive an email notification when the search has finished. In favourable cases, comparing 3D structures may reveal biologically interesting similarities that are not detectable by comparing sequences. Requests can also be submitted by e-mail to dali-server at helsinki dot fi. The body of the e-mail message must contain atomic coordinates in PDB format. If you want to know the structural neighbours of a protein already in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), you can find them in the Dali Database. If you want to superimpose two particular structures, you can do it in the pairwise DaliLite server. Academic users may download the DaliLite program for local use.

http://bioinformatics.psb.ugent.be/ENIGMA/

A software tool to extract gene expression modules from perturbational microarray data, based on the use of combinatorial statistics and graph-based clustering. The modules are further characterized by incorporating other data types, e.g. GO annotation, protein interactions and transcription factor binding information, and by suggesting regulators that might have an effect on the expression of (some of) the genes in the module.

http://harvester.fzk.de/harvester/

Harvester is a Web-based tool that bulk-collects bioinformatic data on human proteins from various databases and prediction servers. It is a meta search engine for gene and protein information. It searches 16 major databases and prediction servers and combines the results on pregenerated HTML pages. In this way Harvester can provide comprehensive gene-protein information from different servers in a convenient and fast manner. As full text meta search engine, similar to Google trade mark, Harvester allows screening of the whole genome proteome for current protein functions and predictions in a few seconds. With Harvester it is now possible to compare and check the quality of different database entries and prediction algorithms on a single page. Sponsors: This work has been supported by the BMBF with grants 01GR0101 and 01KW0013.

http://darcsite.genzentrum.lmu.de/darc/

A database for aligned ribosomal complexes that provides a resource for directly comparing the structures. A collection of files deposited in the RCSB protein data bank and the Electron Microscopy Data Bank have been aligned so as to make direct comparison of the structures possible. An easy-to-use, searchable interface allows users to access and download >130 cryo-EM maps and >300 atomic models in the format of brix and pdb files, respectively. The aligned coordinate system substantially simplifies direct visualization of conformational changes in the ribosome, such as subunit rotation and head-swiveling, as well as direct comparison of bound ligands, such as antibiotics or translation factors.
