The Peptide Sequence Database contains putative peptide sequences from human, mouse, rat, and zebrafish. Compressed to eliminate redundancy, these are about 40 fold smaller than a brute force enumeration. Current and old releases are available for download. Each species'' peptide sequence database comprises peptide sequence data from releveant species specific UniGene and IPI clusters, plus all sequences from their consituent EST, mRNA and protein sequence databases, namely RefSeq proteins and mRNAs, UniProt''s SwissProt and TrEMBL, GenBank mRNA, ESTs, and high-throughput cDNAs, HInv-DB, VEGA, EMBL, IPI protein sequences, plus the enumeration of all combinations of UniProt sequence variants, Met loss PTM, and signal peptide cleavages. The README file contains some information about the non amino-acid symbols O (digest site corresponding to a protein N- or C-terminus) and J (no digest sequence join) used in these peptide sequence databases and information about how to configure various search engines to use them. Some search engines handle (very) long sequences badly and in some cases must be patched to use these peptide sequence databases. All search engines supported by the PepArML meta-search engine can (or can be patched to) successfully search these peptide sequence databases.

This database is intended as a comprehensive resource for UTR (Untranslated Region) biology in C. elegans. The database provides detailed information on UTR structures for all protein-coding mRNAs, and includes annotations extracted from other databases (such as WormBase and PicTar) as well as new annotations generated as part of the NYU UTRome project (including preliminary characterization of UTR clones, USTs (UTR sequence tags), curated sequences, and computational and experimental analysis of functional elements). Examples of functional elements within UTRs include predicted and validated microRNA (miRNA) binding sites (responsible for post-transcriptional gene regulation), putative consensus signals for polyA addition, and predicted secondary structures (which may influence the biological activity of UTRs). The UTRome project is part of the ModEncode Consortium, an NIH initiative to characterize at a genomic scale functional sequence elements encoded in the worm (C. elegans) and fly (D. melanogaster) genomes. UTRs are important portions of mRNAs required for post-transcriptional regulation by interacting with proteins or non-coding RNAs (e.g. microRNAs). To study the role of UTRs we are building a UTR database for C. elegans.

http://cossmos.slu.edu/

Database to search through the nucleic acid structures from the Protein Data Bank and examine structural motifs, including (a)symmetric internal loops, bulge loops, and hairpin loops. They have compiled over 2,000 three-dimensional structures, which can now be searched using different parameters, including PDB information, experimental technique, sequence, and motif type. RNA secondary structure is important for designing therapeutics, understanding protein-RNA binding and predicting tertiary structure of RNA. Several databases and downloadable programs exist that specialize in the three-dimensional (3D) structure of RNA, but none focus specifically on secondary structural motifs such as internal, bulge and hairpin loops. To create the RNA CoSSMos database, 2156 Protein Data Bank (PDB) files were searched for internal, bulge and hairpin loops, and each loop''''s structural information, including sugar pucker, glycosidic linkage, hydrogen bonding patterns and stacking interactions, was included in the database. False positives were defined, identified and reclassified or omitted from the database to ensure the most accurate results possible. Users can search via general PDB information, experimental parameters, sequence and specific motif and by specific structural parameters in the subquery page after the initial search. Returned results for each search can be viewed individually or a complete set can be downloaded into a spreadsheet to allow for easy comparison. The RNA CoSSMos database is updated weekly.

http://nmr.cmbi.ru.nl/NRG-CING/HTML/index.html

NRG-CING presents a complete validation report for all 9,000+ wwPDB NMR entries including remediated experimental data such as chemical shifts from BMRB and restraints from NRG . These CING reports are compiled from internal analyses and those by CCPN, DSSP, PROCHECK-NMR/Aqua, ShiftX, Talos+, Vasco, Wattos, and WHAT_CHECK. The NRG-CING website is a collection of CING reports that has been pre-calculated for all PDB files solved by NMR. (See website for more information on CING.) In case the underlying experimental data is available, these have been cleaned up and made syntactically and semantically correct and homogeneous. For many macromolecular NMR ensembles from the Protein Data Bank (PDB) the experiment-based restraint lists used in the structure calculation are accessible, while other experimental data, mainly chemical shift values, are often available from the BioMagResBank. Assessment of the quality of the structural result is paramount to their usage and a combined, integrated repository of both input data and structural results greatly facilitates such an analysis. In addition, the accuracy and precision of the coordinates in these macromolecular NMR ensembles can be improved by recalculations using the available experimental data and present-day software with improved protocols and force fields. Such efforts, however, generally fail on over half of all deposited structures due to the syntactic and semantic heterogeneity of the data and the wide variety of formats used for their deposition. We have combined the cleaned-up restraints information from the NMR Restraints Grid (NRG) database with available chemical shifts from the BioMagResBank in the weekly updated NRG-CING database. Eleven programs, in addition to CING itself, have been included in the NRG-CING production pipeline to arrive at validation reports that list for each entry the potential inconsistencies between the coordinates and the available restraint and chemical shift data. The longitudinal validation of this data yielded a set of indicators that can be used to judge the quality of every macromolecular structure solved with NMR. The cleaned up NMR experimental datasets and the validation reports are freely available.

ProPortal is a database containing genomic, metagenomic, transcriptomic and field data for the marine cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus. Our goal is to provide a source of cross-referenced data across multiple scales of biological organization--from the genome to the ecosystem--embracing the full diversity of ecotypic variation within this microbial taxon, its sister group, Synechococcus and phage that infect them. The site currently contains the genomes of 13 Prochlorococcus strains, 11 Synechococcus strains and 28 cyanophage strains that infect one or both groups. Cyanobacterial and cyanophage genes are clustered into orthologous groups that can be accessed by keyword search or through a genome browser. Users can also identify orthologous gene clusters shared by cyanobacterial and cyanophage genomes. Gene expression data for Prochlorococcus ecotypes MED4 and MIT9313 allow users to identify genes that are up or downregulated in response to environmental stressors. In addition, the transcriptome in synchronized cells grown on a 24-h light-dark cycle reveals the choreography of gene expression in cells in a ''natural'' state. Metagenomic sequences from the Global Ocean Survey from Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus and phage genomes are archived so users can examine the differences between populations from diverse habitats. Finally, an example of cyanobacterial population data from the field is included.

This database presents the entire DNA sequence of the first diploid genome sequence of a Han Chinese, a representative of Asian population. The genome, named as YH, represents the start of YanHuang Project, which aims to sequence 100 Chinese individuals in 3 years. It was assembled based on 3.3 billion reads (117.7Gbp raw data) generated by Illumina Genome Analyzer. In total of 102.9Gbp nucleotides were mapped onto the NCBI human reference genome (Build 36) by self-developed software SOAP (Short Oligonucleotide Alignment Program), and 3.07 million SNPs were identified. The personal genome data is illustrated in a MapView, which is powered by GBrowse. A new module was developed to browse large-scale short reads alignment. This module enabled users track detailed divergences between consensus and sequencing reads. In total of 53,643 HGMD recorders were used to screen YH SNPs to retrieve phenotype related information, to superficially explain the donor's genome. Blast service to align query sequences against YH genome consensus was also provided.

http://trbase.ex.ac.uk/

This TRbase is a relational tandem repeat database that relates tandem repeats to gene locations and disease genes of the human genome. The TRbase stores both perfect and imperfect repeats of 1 to 2000 bp unit lengths that were identified using the Tandem Repeat Finder program. Disease information for all 24 chromosomes was retrieved from the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) database. There are five main search forms by which the user may query the database: 1. The Advanced tandem repeat search: This allows a complete search for tandem repeats using a combination of criteria, such as total tandem repeat length, repeat unit length, copy number of the repeats, percentage matches and the consensus repeat pattern. On submission, the number of repeats and the detailed tandem repeat characteristics of each repeat that match the user query are tabulated. 2. The Main search: This relates tandem repeat data to genes and diseases. The user may specify a gene of interest to view details of all repeats associated with it or search for tandem repeats present in a particular disease by entering the name/keyword for the disease or the MIM number of the disease gene. 3. The Composite search: This more advanced search allows the user to query specifically for repeats present in exons, introns or intergenic regions of a gene or disease gene. 4. The Gene Search: Further information on genes can be available by a simple gene name search on this page. 5. The Disease search: This allows extensive information on disease genes on all chromosomes of the human genome. Searching for a MIM number, or keyword searches specifying the features of the disease, will retrieve the information on the disease and the chromosome in which the disease gene occurs. Each entry retrieved is linked to the OMIM database for detailed literature and gene map information on the disease.

http://possum.cbrc.jp/PoSSuM/

Relational database of all the discovered similar pairs in a huge number of protein-ligand binding sites with annotations of various types (e.g., CATH, SCOP, EC number, Gene ontology). They used a tremendously fast algorithm called SketchSort that enables the enumeration of similar pairs in a huge number of protein-ligand binding sites. They conducted all-pair similarity searches for 3.4 million known and potential binding sites using the proposed method and discovered over 24 million similar pairs of binding sites. PoSSuM enables rapid exploration of similar binding sites among structures with different global folds as well as similar ones. Moreover, PoSSuM is useful for predicting the binding ligand for unbound structures. Basically, the users can search similar binding pockets using two search modes: # Search K is useful for finding similar binding sites for a known ligand-binding site. Post a known ligand-binding site (a pair of PDB ID and HET code) in the PDB, and PoSSuM will search similar sites for the query site. # Search P is useful for predicting ligands that potentially bind to a structure of interest. Post a known protein structure (PDB ID) in the PDB, and PoSSuM will search similar known-ligand binding sites for the query structure.
