Database for conserved sequence motifs identified by genome scale motif discovery, similarity, clustering, co-occurrence and coexpression calculations. Sequence inputs include low-coverage genome sequence data and ENCODE data. The database offers information on atomic motifs, motif groups and patterns. In promoter-based cisRED databases, sequence search regions for motif discovery extend from 1.5 Kb upstream to 200b downstream of a transcription start site, net of most types of repeats and of coding exons. Many transcription factor binding sites are located in such regions. For each target gene's search region, a base set of probabilistic ab initio discovery tools is used, in parallel, to find over-represented atomic motifs. Discovery methods use comparative genomics with over 40 vertebrate input genomes. In ChIP-seq-based cisRED databases, sequence search regions for motif discovery correspond to significant peaks that represent genome-wide sites of protein-DNA binding. Because such peaks occur in a wide range of genic and intergenic locations, ChIP-seq and promoter-based databases are complementary. Currently, motif discovery for ChIP-seq data uses scan-based approaches that make more explicit use of sets of sequences known to be functional transcription factor binding sites, and that consider a wide range of levels of conservation. For the human STAT1 ChIP-seq database search regions in the target species (human) was selected +/- 300 bp around the ChIP-seq peak maximum. Repeats and coding regions were masked. Multiple sequence alignment were used to assemble orthologous input sequences from other species.

A protein-protein interaction (PPI) database intending to bridge between the two communities most active in their characterization: structural biology and functional genomics researchers. It offers users access to binary subcomplexes, (i.e. physical direct interactions between proteins) that are either structurally characterized or modellable entries in the main functional genomics PPI databases BioGRID, IntAct and HPRD. Selected web services are available to further investigate the validity of postulated PPI by inspection of their hypothetical modelled interfaces., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

Database of key numbers in molecular and cell biology--the quantitative properties of biological systems of interest to computational, systems and molecular cell biologists. Contents of the database range from cell sizes to metabolite concentrations, from reaction rates to generation times, from genome sizes to the number of mitochondria in a cell. Along with the numbers, you'll find the relevant references to the original literature, useful comments, and related numbers. While always of importance to biologists, having numbers in hand is becoming increasingly critical for experimenting, modeling, and analyzing biological systems. BioNumbers was motivated by an appreciation of how long it can take to find even the simplest number in the vast biological literature. All numbers are taken directly from a literature source and that reference is provided with the number. BioNumbers is designed to be highly searchable and queries can be performed by keywords or browsed by menus. BioNumbers is a collaborative community platform where registered users can add content and make comments on existing data. All new entries and commentary are curated to maintain high quality.

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/IPI

IPI provides a top level guide to the main databases (UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot, UniProtKB/TrEMBL, RefSeq, Ensembl, TAIR, H-InvDB, Vega) that describe the proteomes of higher eukaryotic organisms. IPI: :1. effectively maintains a database of cross references between the primary data sources :2. provides minimally redundant yet maximally complete sets of proteins for featured species (one sequence per transcript) :3. maintains stable identifiers (with incremental versioning) to allow the tracking of sequences in IPI between IPI releases. IPI is updated monthly in accordance with the latest data released by the primary data sources. As previously announced, the closure of IPI has been proposed for some time. Replacement data sets are now available through UniProt for human and mouse; sets for the other species contained within IPI are expected to be included as part of the UniProt release 2011_07. To allow users time to transition to using the new UniProt data sets, IPI releases will continue to be produced throughout the summer. The final release will be made in September 2011. Thereafter, the IPI website will cease to be maintained, although previous releases of the dataset will continue to be available from the FTP site. We would like to thank our users for their support and interest in this service.

http://cubic.bioc.columbia.edu/db/LOC3d/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. LOC3d is a database of predicted subcellular localization for eukaryotic proteins of known 3-D structure taken from the Protein Databank. Subcellular localization is currently predicted using four different methods: predictNLS (nuclear localization signal), LOChom (using homology), LOCkey (using keywords) and LOC3d (neural network based prediction). The reported localization is based on the method which predicts localization of a given protein with the highest confidence. LOCtree is a novel system of support vector machines (SVMs) that predict the subcellular localization of proteins, and DNA-binding propensity for nuclear proteins, by incorporating a hierarchical ontology of localization classes modeled onto biological processing pathways. Biological similarities are incorporated from the description of cellular components provided by the gene ontology consortium (GO). GO definitions have been simplified and tailored to the problem of protein sorting. Technically the ontology has been implemented using a decision tree with SVMs as the nodes. LOCtree, was extremely successful at learning evolutionary similarities among subcellular localization classes and was significantly more accurate than other traditional networks at predicting subcellular localization. Whenever available, LOCtree also reports predictions based on the following: 1) Nuclear localization signals found by PredictNLS, 2) Localization inferred using Prosite motifs and Pfam domains found in the protein, and 3) SWISS-PROT keywords associated with a protein. Localization is inferred in the last two cases using the entropy-based LOCkey algorithm. Additional information can be found in the LOCtree manuscript and associated PredictNLS and LOCkey publications.
