The MIPS Ustilago maydis Genome Database aims to present information on the molecular structure and functional network of the entirely sequenced, filamentous fungus Ustilago maydis. The underlying sequence is the initial release of the high quality draft sequence of the Broad Institute. The goal of the MIPS database is to provide a comprehensive genome database in the Genome Research Environment in parallel with other fungal genomes to enable in depth fungal comparative analysis. The specific aims are to: 1. Generate and assemble Whole Genome Shotgun sequence reads yielding 10X coverage of the U. maydis genome 2. Integrate the genomic sequence assembly with physical maps generated by Bayer CropScience 3. Perform automated annotation of the sequence assembly 4. Align the strain 521 assembly with the FB1 assembly provided by Exelixis 5. Release the sequence assembly and results of our annotation and analysis to public Ustilago maydis is a basidiomycete fungal pathogen of maize and teosinte. The genome size is approximately 20 Mb. The fungus induces tumors on host plants and forms masses of diploid teliospores. These spores germinate and form haploid meiotic products that can be propagated in culture as yeast-like cells. Haploid strains of opposite mating type fuse and form a filamentous, dikaryotic cell type that invades plant tissue to reinitiate infection. Ustilago maydis is an important model system for studying pathogen-host interactions and has been studied for more than 100 years by plant pathologists. Molecular genetic research with U. maydis focuses on recombination, the role of mating in pathogenesis, and signaling pathways that influence virulence. Recently, the fungus has emerged as an excellent experimental model for the molecular genetic analysis of phytopathogenesis, particularly in the characterization of infection-specific morphogenesis in response to signals from host plants. Ustilago maydis also serves as an important model for other basidiomycete plant pathogens that are more difficult to work with in the laboratory, such as the rust and bunt fungi. Genomic sequence of U. maydis will also be valuable for comparative analysis of other fungal genomes, especially with respect to understanding the host range of fungal phytopathogens. The analysis of U. maydis would provide a framework for studying the hundreds of other Ustilago species that attack important crops, such as barley, wheat, sorghum, and sugarcane. Comparisons would also be possible with other basidiomycete fungi, such as the important human pathogen C. neoformans. Commercially, U. maydis is an excellent model for the discovery of antifungal drugs. In addition, maize tumors caused by U. maydis are prized in Hispanic cuisine and there is interest in improving commercial production. The complete putative gene set of the Broad Institute''s second release is loaded into the database and in addition all deviating putative genes from a putative gene set produced by MIPS with different gene prediction parameters are also loaded. The complete dataset will then be analysed, gene predictions will be manually corrected due to combined information derived from different gene prediction algorithms and, more important, protein and EST comparisons. Gene prediction will be restricted to ORFs larger than 50 codons; smaller ORFs will be included only if similarities to other proteins or EST matches confirm their existence or if a coding region was postulated by all prediction programs used. The resulting proteins will be annotated. They will be classified according to the MIPS classification catalogue receiving appropriate descriptions. All proteins with a known, characterized homolog will be automatically assigned to functional categories using the MIPS functional catalog. All extracted proteins are in addition automatically analysed and annotated by the PEDANT suite.

A relational database containing all structural proteins of Arthropod cuticle identified to date. Many come from direct sequencing of proteins isolated from cuticle and from sequences from cDNAs that share common features with these authentic cuticular proteins. It also includes proteins from the five sequenced genomes where manual annotation has been applied to cuticular proteins: Anopheles gambiae, Apis mellifera, Bombyx mori, Drosophila melanogaster, and Nasonia vitripennis. Some sequences were confirmed as authentic cuticular proteins because protein sequencing revealed that they were present in cuticle; others were identified by sequence homology and other criteria. Entries provides information about whether sequences are putative or authentic cuticular proteins. CuticleDB was primarily designed to contain correct and full annotation of cuticular protein data. The database will be of help to future genome annotators. Users will be able to test hypotheses for the existence of known and also of yet unknown motifs in cuticular proteins. An analysis of motifs may contribute to understanding how proteins contribute to the physical properties of cuticle as well as to the precise nature of their interaction with chitin.

CE is a databases of alignments for all polypeptide chains. A representative set of proteins is available and kept current with the PDB, a method for calculating pairwise structure alignments. CE aligns two polypeptide chains using characteristics of their local geometry as defined by vectors between C alpha positions. Matches are termed aligned fragment pairs (AFPs). Heuristics are used in defining a set of optimal paths joining AFPs with gaps as needed. The path with the best RMSD is subject to dynamic programming to achieve an optimal alignment. For specific families of proteins additional characteristics are used to weight the alignment. Complete details are described in the paper (PDF format).

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/hPATM/
A web tool, based on a heuristic transformation of the original global pairwise and local pairwise alignment algorithms, offers objective alignments for transmembrane protein sequences. hPATM takes advantage of the information offered by the knowledge of the position of transmembrane segmets, by experiment or prediction. The heuristic approach may reveal similarities between diverge sequences with low percentages of identity and similarity. The produced alignments, based on common structural scaffolds derived by the transmembrane segments of the sequence, can be used to spot conserved non-transmembrane segments or as a basis for the production of 3-D models via homology modelling. The hPAFAG algorithm is based on the heuristic transformation of the Needleman & Wunsch and Smith & Waterman algorithms, featuring affine gap penalties. The heuristic transformation is based on two extra features: * a heuristic bonus, added to the score when two amino acids that belong to transmembrane segmens are aligned. * a heuristic gap penalty, substracted from the score when a gap is opened in a transmembrane segment. This way transmembrane segments are anchored (not by force, but by more strict alignment) together, allowing the pairwise alignment to focus on non-transmembrane segments. This web server offers a friendly interface for the hPATM command line version. The algorithm was implemented in PERL and the source code of the command line version is available on request by the authors.
