http://bionumbers.hms.harvard.edu/

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://t3db.org/

Database that combines detailed toxin data with comprehensive toxin target information. The database currently houses 3,053 toxins described by 32,276 synonyms, including pollutants, pesticides, drugs, and food toxins, which are linked to 1,670 corresponding toxin target records. Altogether there are 37,084 toxin, toxin target associations. (March 2014) Each toxin record (ToxCard) contains over 50 data fields and holds information such as chemical properties and descriptors, toxicity values, molecular and cellular interactions, and medical information. This information has been extracted from over 5,454 sources sources, which include other databases, government documents, books, and scientific literature. The focus of the T3DB is on providing mechanisms of toxicity and target proteins for each toxin. This dual nature of the T3DB, in which toxin and toxin target records are interactively linked in both directions, makes it unique from existing databases. It is also fully searchable and supports extensive text, sequence, chemical structure, and relational query searches

http://www.uniprot.org/help/uniprotkb

Central repository for collection of functional information on proteins, with accurate and consistent annotation. In addition to capturing core data mandatory for each UniProtKB entry (mainly, the amino acid sequence, protein name or description, taxonomic data and citation information), as much annotation information as possible is added. This includes widely accepted biological ontologies, classifications and cross-references, and experimental and computational data. The UniProt Knowledgebase consists of two sections, UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot and UniProtKB/TrEMBL. UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot (reviewed) is a high quality manually annotated and non-redundant protein sequence database which brings together experimental results, computed features, and scientific conclusions. UniProtKB/TrEMBL (unreviewed) contains protein sequences associated with computationally generated annotation and large-scale functional characterization that await full manual annotation. Users may browse by taxonomy, keyword, gene ontology, enzyme class or pathway.

Dataset in Bilingual exposure optimizes left-hemisphere dominance for selective attention processes in the developing brain by Arredondo, Su, Satterfield, & Kovelman (XX) Does early bilingual exposure alter the representations of cognitive processes in the developing brain? Theories of bilingual development have suggested that bilingual language switching might improve children''s executive function and foster the maturation of prefrontal brain regions that support higher cognition. To test this hypothesis, we used functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy to measure brain activity in Spanish-English bilingual and English-monolingual children during a visuo-spatial executive function task of attentional control (N=27, ages 7-13). Prior findings suggest that while young children start with bilateral activation for the task, it becomes right-lateralized with age (Konrad et al., 2005). Indeed monolinguals showed bilateral frontal activation, however young bilinguals showed greater activation in left language areas relative to right hemisphere and relative to monolinguals. The findings suggest that bilingual experience optimizes attention mechanisms in the language hemisphere, and highlight the importance of early experiences for neurodevelopmental plasticity of higher cognition. These data are made available from Ioulia Kovelman''s Language and Literacy Lab at University of Michigan and may be exported through the NIF Data Federation. To cite these data please use this text Data were published by Arredondo et al. (XX) and made available via the NIF at XX

http://www.lifetable.de/

A collection of population life tables covering a multitude of countries and many years. Most of the HLD life tables are life tables for national populations, which have been officially published by national statistical offices. Some of the HLD life tables refer to certain regional or ethnic sub-populations within countries. Parts of the HLD life tables are non-official life tables produced by researchers. Life tables describe the extent to which a generation of people (i.e. life table cohort) dies off with age. Life tables are the most ancient and important tool in demography. They are widely used for descriptive and analytical purposes in demography, public health, epidemiology, population geography, biology and many other branches of science. HLD includes the following types of data: * complete life tables in text format; * abridged life tables in text format; * references to statistical publications and other data sources; * scanned copies of the original life tables as they were published. Three scientific institutions are jointly developing the HLD: the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (MPIDR) in Rostock, Germany, the Department of Demography at the University of California at Berkeley, USA and the Institut national d''��tudes d��mographiques (INED) in Paris, France. The MPIDR is responsible for maintaining the database.
