A knowledgebase of Biochemically, Genetically and Genomically structured genome-scale metabolic network reconstructions. BiGG integrates several published genome-scale metabolic networks into one resource with standard nomenclature which allows components to be compared across different organisms. BiGG can be used to browse model content, visualize metabolic pathway maps, and export SBML files of the models for further analysis by external software packages. Users may follow links from BiGG to several external databases to obtain additional information on genes, proteins, reactions, metabolites and citations of interest.

Database of Bacterial ExoToxins for Human is a database of sequences, structures, interaction networks and analytical results for 229 exotoxins, from 26 different human pathogenic bacterial genus. All toxins are classified into 24 different Toxin classes. The aim of DBETH is to provide a comprehensive database for human pathogenic bacterial exotoxins. DBETH also provides a platform to its users to identify potential exotoxin like sequences through Homology based as well as Non-homology based methods. In homology based approach the users can identify potential exotoxin like sequences either running BLASTp against the toxin sequences or by running HMMER against toxin domains identified by DBETH from human pathogenic bacterial exotoxins. In Non-homology based part DBETH uses a machine learning approach to identify potential exotoxins (Toxin Prediction by Support Vector Machine based approach).

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/CW-PRED/

A web tool for the prediction of Cell Wall-Anchored Proteins in Gram+ Bacteria. Gram-positive bacteria have surface proteins that are often implicated in virulence. A group of extracellular proteins attached to the cell wall contains an LPXTG-like motif that is target for cleavage and covalent coupling to peptidoglycan by sortase enzymes. A new Hidden Markov Model (HMM), an extension to the HMM model from Litou et al., http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18464329, was developed for predicting the LPXTG and LPXTG-like cell-wall proteins of Gram-positive bacteria. An analysis of 177 completely sequenced genomes has been performed as well. We identified in total 1456 cell-wall proteins, from which 1283 have the LPXTG motif, 39 the NPXTG motif, 53 have the LPXTA and 81 the LAXTG motif.

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/PRED-TMBB/

A web tool, based on a Hidden Markov Model, capable of predicting the transmembrane beta-strands of the gram-negative bacteria outer membrane proteins, and of discriminating such proteins from water-soluble ones when screening large datasets. The model is trained in a discriminative manner, aiming at maximizing the probability of the correct prediction rather than the likelihood of the sequences. The training is performed on a non-redundant database consisting of 16 outer membrane proteins (OMP''s) with their structures known at atomic resolution. We show that we can achieve predictions at least as good comparing with other existing methods, using as input only the amino-acid sequence, without the need of evolutionary information included in multiple alignments. The method is also powerful when used for discrimination purposes, as it can discriminate with a high accuracy the outer membrane proteins from water soluble in large datasets, making it a quite reliable solution for screening entire genomes. This web-server can help you run a discriminating process on any amino-acid sequence and thereafter localize the transmembrane strands and find the topology of the loops.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/

Database for a curated classification and nomenclature that contains the names of all organisms that are represented in the public sequence databases with at least one nucleotide or protein sequence. Data provided encompasses archaea, bacteria, eukaryota, viroids and viruses. The NCBI taxonomy database is not a primary source for taxonomic or phylogenetic information. Furthermore, the database does not follow a single taxonomic treatise but rather attempts to incorporate phylogenetic and taxonomic knowledge from a variety of sources, including the published literature, web-based databases, and the advice of sequence submitters and outside taxonomy experts. Consequently, the NCBI taxonomy database is not a phylogenetic or taxonomic authority and should not be cited as such.

http://www.phi-base.org/

Database that catalogs experimentally verified pathogenicity, virulence and effector genes from fungal, Oomycete and bacterial pathogens, which infect animal, plant, fungal and insect hosts. It is an invaluable resource in the discovery of genes in medically and agronomically important pathogens, which may be potential targets for chemical intervention. In collaboration with the FRAC team, it also includes antifungal compounds and their target genes. Each entry is curated by domain experts and is supported by strong experimental evidence (gene disruption experiments, STM etc), as well as literature references in which the original experiments are described. Each gene is presented with its nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequence, as well as a detailed description of the predicted protein's function during the host infection process. To facilitate data interoperability, genes have been annotated using controlled vocabularies and links to external sources (Gene Ontology terms, EC Numbers, NCBI taxonomy, EMBL, PubMed and FRAC).

Open-source software tool to assign taxonomic labels to as many reads as possible in very large metagenomic datasets and report the taxonomic profile of the input sample. The quick "single pass" analysis of every read allows read binning to support additional more computationally expensive analysis such as metagenomic assembly or sensitive database searches on targeted subsets of reads.

http://www.broadinstitute.org/software/pathseq/

A computational tool for the identification and analysis of microbial sequences in high-throughput human sequencing data that is designed to work with large numbers of sequencing reads in a scalable manner. This process is composed of a subtractive phase in which input reads are subtracted by alignment to human reference sequences, and an analytic phase in which the remaining reads are aligned to microbial reference sequences (viral, fungal, bacterial, archaeal) and de novo assembled. PathSeq is currently available in a cloud computing environment via Amazon Web Services The typical approach one would take to pathogen discovery with PathSeq: RNA or DNA is extracted from the tissue of interest and sequencing libraries are constructed to be run on the next-generation DNA sequencing platform of choice. The resulting sequence data is run through the PathSeq pipeline in a cloud computing environment. PathSeq reports potential microbes in the sequence data as well as the complete set of reads that could not be identified as human or microbial sequences.
