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.

SYFPEITHI is a database comprising more than 7000 peptide sequences known to bind class I and class II MHC molecules. The entries are compiled from published reports only. It contains a collection of MHC class I and class II ligands and peptide motifs of humans and other species, such as apes, cattle, chicken, and mouse, for example, and is continuously updated. Searches for MHC alleles, MHC motifs, natural ligands, T-cell epitopes, source proteins/organisms and references are possible. Hyperlinks to the EMBL and PubMed databases are included. In addition, ligand predictions are available for a number of MHC allelic products. The database is based on previous publications on T-cell epitopes and MHC ligands. It contains information on: -Peptide sequences -anchor positions -MHC specificity -source proteins, source organisms -publication references Since the number of motifs continuously increases, it was necessary to set up a database which facilitates the search for peptides and allows the prediction of T-cell epitopes. The prediction is based on published motifs (pool sequencing, natural ligands) and takes into consideration the amino acids in the anchor and auxiliary anchor positions, as well as other frequent amino acids. The score is calculated according to the following rules: The amino acids of a certain peptide are given a specific value depending on whether they are anchor, auxiliary anchor or preferred residue. Ideal anchors will be given 10 points, unusual anchors 6-8 points, auxiliary anchors 4-6 and preferred residues 1-4 points. Amino acids that are regarded as having a negative effect on the binding ability are given values between -1 and -3. Sponsors: SYFPEITHI is supported by DFG-Sonderforschungsbereich 685 and theEuropean Union: EU BIOMED CT95-1627, BIOTECH CT95-0263, and EU QLQ-CT-1999-00713.

http://nmrresource.ucsd.edu/

Biomedical technology research center that develops new technology for NMR spectroscopy and makes it available to the biomedical research community for structure determination of proteins in biological supramolecular assemblies, such as membrane proteins or virus particles. The principal applications are to membrane-associated proteins; however, the approach is generally applicable to polypeptides that cannot be prepared in forms suitable for X-ray crystallography or multidimensional solution NMR spectroscopy. As a result, there are also applications to viruses and other biological systems. The principal instrumentation consists of high-field NMR spectrometers dedicated to high-resolution solid-state NMR spectroscopy. The spectrometers are capable of the full-range of multiple-resonance experiments on stationary and spinning samples; however, the major emphasis is on methods that utilize mechanically or magnetically oriented samples. Development encompasses preparation of samples, including: * Expression and purification of membrane proteins * Design and construction of instrumentation, especially probes * Implementation of new pulse sequences and other experimental protocols for solid-state NMR spectroscopy * Calculations for the processing of experimental data and protein structure determination from the orientational constraints derived from these data

http://www.uniprot.org/program/Chordata

Data set of manually annotated chordata-specific proteins as well as those that are widely conserved. The program keeps existing human entries up-to-date and broadens the manual annotation to other vertebrate species, especially model organisms, including great apes, cow, mouse, rat, chicken, zebrafish, as well as Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. A draft of the complete human proteome is available in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot and one of the current priorities of the Chordata protein annotation program is to improve the quality of human sequences provided. To this aim, they are updating sequences which show discrepancies with those predicted from the genome sequence. Dubious isoforms, sequences based on experimental artifacts and protein products derived from erroneous gene model predictions are also revisited. This work is in part done in collaboration with the Hinxton Sequence Forum (HSF), which allows active exchange between UniProt, HAVANA, Ensembl and HGNC groups, as well as with RefSeq database. UniProt is a member of the Consensus CDS project and thye are in the process of reviewing their records to support convergence towards a standard set of protein annotation. They also continuously update human entries with functional annotation, including novel structural, post-translational modification, interaction and enzymatic activity data. In order to identify candidates for re-annotation, they use, among others, information extraction tools such as the STRING database. In addition, they regularly add new sequence variants and maintain disease information. Indeed, this annotation program includes the Variation Annotation Program, the goal of which is to annotate all known human genetic diseases and disease-linked protein variants, as well as neutral polymorphisms.
