Matlab toolbox that makes it easy to apply decoding analyses to neural data. The design of the toolbox revolves around four abstract object classes which enables users to interchange particular modules in order to try different analyses while keeping the rest of the processing stream intact. The toolbox is capable of analyzing data from many different types of recording modalities, and examples are given on how it can be used to decode basic visual information from neural spiking activity and how it can be used to examine how invariant the activity of a neural population is to stimulus transformations.

http://www.mbio.ncsu.edu/RNaseP/home.html

Ribonuclease P is responsible for the 5''-maturation of tRNA precursors. Ribonuclease P is a ribonucleoprotein, and in bacteria (and some Archaea) the RNA subunit alone is catalytically active in vitro, i.e. it is a ribozyme. The Ribonuclease P Database is a compilation of ribonuclease P sequences, sequence alignments, secondary structures, three-dimensional models and accessory information. The database contains information on bacterial, archaeal, and eukaryotic RNase P. The RNase P and protein sequences are available from phylogentically-arranged lists, individual sequences, or aligned in GenBank format. The database also provides secondary structures and 3D models, as well as movies, still images, and other accessory information.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone.. Documented on August 19,2019.BOND, which requires registration of a free account, is a resource used to perform cross-database searches of available sequence, interaction, complex and pathway information. BOND integrates a range of component databases including GenBank and BIND, the Biomolecular Interaction Network Database. BOND contains 70+ million biological sequences, 33,000 structures, 38,000 GO terms, and over 200,000 human curated interactions contained in BIND, and is open access. BOND serves the interests of the developing global interactome effort encompassing the genomic, proteomic and metabolomic research communities. BOND is the first open access search resource to integrate sequence and interaction information. BOND integrates BLAST functionality, and contains a well-documented API. BOND also stores annotation links for sequences, including links to Genome Ontology descriptions, MedLine abstracts, taxon identifiers, associated structures, redundant sequences, sequence neighbors, conserved domains, data base cross-references, Online Mendalian Inheritance in Man identifiers, LocusLink identifiers and complete genomes. BIND on BOND The Biomolecular Interaction Network Database (BIND), a component database of BOND, is a collection of records documenting molecular interactions. The contents of BIND include high-throughput data submissions and hand-curated information gathered from the scientific literature. BIND is an interaction database with three classifications for molecular associations: molecules that associate with each other to form interactions, molecular complexes that are formed from one or more interaction(s) and pathways that are defined by a specific sequence of two or more interactions.Interactions A BIND record represents an interaction between two or more objects that is believed to occur in a living organism. A biological object can be a protein, DNA, RNA, ligand, molecular complex, gene, photon or an unclassified biological entity. BIND records are created for interactions which have been shown experimentally and published in at least one peer-reviewed journal. A record also references any papers with experimental evidence that support or dispute the associated interaction. Interactions are the basic units of BIND and can be linked together to form molecular complexes or pathways. The BIND interaction viewer is a tool to visualize and analyze molecular interactions, complexes and pathways. The BIND interaction viewer uses Ontoglyphs to display information about a protein via attributes such as molecular function, biological process and sub-cellular localization. Ontoglyphs allow to graphically and interactively explore interaction networks, by visualizing interactions in the context of 34 functional, 25 binding specificity and 24 sub-cellular localization Ontoglyphs categories. We will continue to provide an open access version of BOND, providing its subscribers with free, unlimited access to a core content set. But we are confident you will soon want to upgrade to BONDplus.

It has been established with the intention of assembling in a central, publicly accessible site information about alternatively spliced genes, their products and expression patterns. Version 2.1 of ASDB consists of two divisions, ASDB(proteins) , which contains amino acid sequences, and ASDB(nucleotides) with genomic sequences.
SWISS-PROT uses two formats for description of alternative splicing Thus the protein sequences were selected from SWISS-PROT using full text search for both the words alternative splicing (usually in the CC lines) and varsplic (in the FT lines). In order to group proteins that could arise by alternative splicing of the same gene, we developed the clustering procedure. Two proteins were linked if they had a common fragment of at least 20 amino acids, and clusters were initially defined as maximum connected groups of linked proteins. It turned out that some clusters were chimeric, in the sense that they contained members of multi-gene families, but not alternatively spliced variants of one gene. Therefore the multiple alignments were subject to additional analysis aimed at detection of chimeric clusters.
Each cluster is represented by multiple alignment of its members constructed using CLUSTALW. The distribution of cluster size, representation of species and other relevant statistics of ASDB(proteins) can be accessed through the links below.
This processing covers the cases when alternatively spliced variants are described in separate SWISS-PROT entries. The other kinds of ASDB records, originating from the SWISS-PROT entries with the varsplic field in the feature table, usually describe the proteins that are not part of any cluster. In these cases, the information on the variable fragments of the several proteins which result from the alternative splicing of a single gene is contained in the entry itself. ASDB(proteins) entries are marked with different symbols to allow for easy differentiation among the three types: those proteins which are part of the ASDB clusters and the corresponding multialignments, those which have the information on different variants in the associated SWISS-PROT entries, and those for which the information on the variants is not available at the present time. ASDB contains internal links between entries and/or clusters, as well as external links to Medline, GenBank and SWISS-PROT entries.
The ASDB(nucleotides) division was generated by collecting all GenBank entries containing the words alternative splicing and further selection of those entries that contain complete gene sequences (all CDS fields are complete, i.e. they do not have continuation signs).

Online access (html or xml) to structural connectivity ("wiring") data on the Macaque brain. The database has become by far the largest of its kind, with data extracted from more than four hundred published tracing studies. The main database, contains data from tracing studies on anatomical connectivity in the macaque cerebral cortex. Also available are a variety of tools including a graphical simulation workbench, map displays and the CoCoMac-Paxinos-3D viewer. Submissions are welcome. To overcome the problem of divergent brain maps ORT (Objective Relational Transformation) was developed, an algorithmic method to convert data in a coordinate- independent way based on logical relations between areas in different brain maps. CoCoMac data is used to analyze the organization of the cerebral cortex, and to establish its structure- function relationships. This includes multi-variate statistics and computer simulation of models that take into account the real anatomy of the primate cerebral cortex. This site * Provides full, scriptable open access to the data in CoCoMac (you must adhere to the citation policy) * Powers the graphical interface to CoCoMac provided by the Scalable Brain Atlas * Sports an extensive search/browse wizard, which automatically constructs complex search queries and lets you further explore the database from the results page. * Allows you to get your hands dirty, by using the custom SQL query service. * Displays connectivity data in tabular form, through the axonal projections service. CoCoMac 2 was initiated at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, and is currently supported by the German neuroinformatics node and the Computational and Systems Neuroscience group at the Juelich research institute.
