Comparative Sequencing of Plant Small RNAs Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Comparative Sequencing of Plant Small RNAs (RRID:SCR_007003) | production service resource, data analysis service, service resource, analysis service resource, data or information resource, data set | This project has developed a sequence dataset of plant small RNAs based on the hypothesis that most if not all plants utilize important small RNA signaling networks. Different plant families are likely to have both common and lineage-specific miRNAs or other small RNAs with important biological roles. Comparative genomics approaches can be applied to distinguish potential miRNAs from siRNAs and to match the miRNAs to the target sequences. This project develops an unparalleled resource of millions of plant small RNAs for comparative analyses. The project includes sequencing of small RNAs from a diverse and agronomically-relevant set of plant species, focused analyses of important members of the Solanaceae and Poaceae, and development of a small RNA database and web interface for public access and analysis of data. These data will allow the experimental characterization of the majority of biologically important small RNAs for a range of plant species, and will be tremendously useful to a broad set of plant biologists interested in development, stress responses, epigenetics, evolution, RNA biology and other traits impacted by small RNAs. We offer a variety of tools to query the small RNA data set, with options to identify sequences based on homology, expression levels, conservation, or potential function: 1. Small RNA mapping tool: searches for small RNAs perfectly matching a genomic sequence provided by the user. 2. Small RNA mismatch tool: searches the database for small RNAs or other short sequences provided by the user, allowing mismatches. 3. Library-comparison tool to identify conserved small RNAs. 4. Library-comparison tool to identify differentially regulated small RNAs. 5. Reverse Target Prediction. | has parent organization: University of Delaware; Delaware; USA | NSF 0638525 | nlx_37749 | SCR_007003 | 2026-08-03 09:33:19 | 1 | ||||||||||

Genes to Cognition: Neuroscience Research Programme Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Genes to Cognition: Neuroscience Research Programme (RRID:SCR_007121) | topical portal, data or information resource, portal | A neuroscience research program that studies genes, the brain and behavior in an integrated manner, established to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of learning and memory, and shed light on the pathogenesis of disorders of cognition. Central to G2C investigations is the NMDA receptor complex (NRC/MASC), that is found at the synapses in the central nervous system which constitute the functional connections between neurons. Changes in the receptor and associated components are thought to be in a large part responsible for the phenomenon of synaptic plasticity, that may underlie learning and memory. G2C is addressing the function of synapse proteins using large scale approaches combining genomics, proteomics and genetic methods with electrophysiological and behavioral studies. This is incorporated with computational models of the organization of molecular networks at the synapse. These combined approaches provide a powerful and unique opportunity to understand the mechanisms of disease genes in behavior and brain pathology as well as provide fundamental insights into the complexity of the human brain. Additionally, Genes to Cognition makes available its biological resources, including gene-targeting vectors, ES cell lines, antibodies, and transgenic mice, generated for its phenotyping pipeline. The resources are freely-available to interested researchers. | cognition, gene, neuroscience |

Models include everything from diagrammatic schema, suggesting relationships among elements composing a system, to fully quantitative, computational models describing the behavior of physiological systems and an organism''s response to environmental change. Each mathematical model is an internally self-consistent summary of available information, and thereby defines a working hypothesis about how a system operates. Predictions from such models are subject to test, with new results leading to new models.BR /> A Tool developed for the NSR Physiome project is JSim, an open source, free software. JSim is a Java-based simulation system for building quantitative numeric models and analyzing them with respect to experimental reference data. JSim''s primary focus is in physiology and biomedicine, however its computational engine is quite general and applicable to a wide range of scientific domains. JSim models may intermix ODEs, PDEs, implicit equations, integrals, summations, discrete events and procedural code as appropriate. JSim''s model compiler can automatically insert conversion factors for compatible physical units as well as detect and reject unit unbalanced equations. JSim also imports the SBML and CellML model archival formats. All JSim models are open source. Goals of the Physiome Project: - To develop and database observations of physiological phenomenon and interpret these in terms of mechanism (a fundamentally reductionist goal). - To integrate experimental information into quantitative descriptions of the functioning of humans and other organisms (modern integrative biology glued together via modeling). - To disseminate experimental data and integrative models for teaching and research. - To foster collaboration amongst investigators worldwide, to speed up the discovery of how biological systems work. - To determine the most effective targets (molecules or systems) for therapy, either pharmaceutic or genomic. - To provide information for the design of tissue-engineered, biocompatible implants. | physiome, computational modeling, cell, organ, organism, human, model, physiological, pharmacological, pathological, model repository, sbml, cellml, biophysics, biochemistry, database, proteome, jsim simulation analysis system, data analysis tool, parameter optimization tool, integrating biological system | has parent organization: University of Washington; Seattle; USA | NSF BE08407; NHLBI T15 HL88516-01; NSF BES-0506477; NHLBI R01HL073598; NIBIB R01EB001973 |

Its membership includes crystallographic service facilities (that analyze crystals submitted by research chemists) located at major universities. These labs analyze anywhere from a few dozen to several hundred molecular structures each year and post the data online for the public to access. A distributed database engine takes care of shuttling this data across the Internet so that every structure can be located by the search engine. There may be a delay of a year or more between the time a structure is first analyzed and the time it finally becomes available for the public to see. This is due to intellectual property issues - the intervening time allows the chemists who first discovered the structure to publish it in a trade journal. | 3d molecular structure, chemistry, digital, molecular, structure, molecular structure, crystallography, chemical process |

PIRSF Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
PIRSF (RRID:SCR_003352) | PIRSF | narrative resource, data or information resource, database, standard specification | A SuperFamily classification system, with rules for functional site and protein name, to facilitate the sensible propagation and standardization of protein annotation and the systematic detection of annotation errors. The PIRSF concept is being used as a guiding principle to provide comprehensive and non-overlapping clustering of UniProtKB sequences into a hierarchical order to reflect their evolutionary relationships. The PIRSF classification system is based on whole proteins rather than on the component domains; therefore, it allows annotation of generic biochemical and specific biological functions, as well as classification of proteins without well-defined domains. There are different PIRSF classification levels. The primary level is the homeomorphic family, whose members are both homologous (evolved from a common ancestor) and homeomorphic (sharing full-length sequence similarity and a common domain architecture). At a lower level are the subfamilies which are clusters representing functional specialization and/or domain architecture variation within the family. Above the homeomorphic level there may be parent superfamilies that connect distantly related families and orphan proteins based on common domains. Because proteins can belong to more than one domain superfamily, the PIRSF structure is formally a network. The FTP site provides free download for PIRSF. | protein annotation, classification, protein, superfamily, functional site, protein name, bio.tools |
