emPAI (exponentially modified protein abundance index), developed by Ishihama et al., is a measure to describe the protein composition in sample solutions. When the total protein amount in the sample is available, emPAI can be converted to the absolute amount of each protein in the sample. emPAI is derived from PAI, which is defined as the number of the observed peptides divided by the number of the observable peptides per protein. We recently found that log (PAI) had linear relationship to the protein amounts, and that emPAI, 10^(PAI)-1, was proportional to the protein amounts for whole cell lysate digested by trypsin. The accuracy of this method was within factor 5, similar or better than determination of abundance by protein staining

Maintains and distributes chromosome aberration stocks that provide primarily mouse models for Down syndrome. The Resource currently provides models for Down syndrome research, including: Rb(6.16)24Lub x Rb(16.17)7Bnr F1 hybrids that are used to produce Chr 16 trisomy (Ts16) embryos, which have many of the fetal developmental features of DS, and; Ts(1716)65Dn, segmental trisomy mice that survive to adulthood and have many of the features of DS. The Resource also includes stocks with selected reciprocal translocations involving Chr 16 and some Chr 16 transgenic stocks. In addition, a large number of Robertsonian chromosome stocks are held as frozen embryos in the Cryopreservation Resource. Each mouse chromosome is present in at least two different Robertsonian chromosomes in these strains so that specific trisomies for each of the 19 mouse autosomes can be produced. Breeding pairs and individual mice are provided.

http://pir.georgetown.edu/pirwww/dbinfo/pirsf.shtml

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.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented September 6, 2016. A publicly accessible data repository to provide neuroscience investigators with secure access to cohort collections. The Databank collects and disseminates gene expression data from microarray experiments on brain tissue samples, along with diagnostic results from postmortem studies of neurological and psychiatric disorders. All of the data that is derived from studies of the HBTRC collection is being incorporated into the National Brain Databank. This data is available to the general public, although strict precautions are undertaken to maintain the confidentiality of the brain donors and their family members. The system is designed to incorporate MIAME and MAGE-ML based microarray data sharing standards. Data from various types of studies conducted on brain tissue in the HBTRC collection will be available from studies using different technologies, such as gene expression profiling, quantitative RT-PCR, situ hybridization, and immunocytochemistry and will have the potential for providing powerful insights into the subregional and cellular distribution of genes and/or proteins in different brain regions and eventually in specific subregions and cellular subtypes.

http://www.isi.edu/integration/karma/

An information integration software tool that enables users to integrate data from a variety of data sources including databases, spreadsheets, delimited text files, XML, JSON, KML and Web APIs. Users integrate information by modeling it according to an ontology of their choice using a graphical user interface that automates much of the process. Karma learns to recognize the mapping of data to ontology classes and then uses the ontology to propose a model that ties together these classes. Users then interact with the system to adjust the automatically generated model. During this process, users can transform the data as needed to normalize data expressed in different formats and to restructure it. Once the model is complete, users can publish the integrated data as RDF or store it in a database.

The mission of the Center for the Multiscale Analysis of Genomic and Cellular Networks (MAGNet) is to develop novel Structural and Systems Biology methods and tools for the dissection of molecular interactions in the cell and for the interaction-based elucidation of cellular phenotypes. These tools are made freely available to the the members of the research community. They are also validated in the context of the Center''''s own research program through collaborative projects with experimental biologists. MAGNet is one of 7 National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBC). These Centers, in conjunction with individual investigator awards, are creating a networked effort to build the computational infrastructure for biomedical computing in the nation. The NCBC program is devoted to all facets of biomedical computing, from basic research in computational science to providing the tools and resources that biomedical and behavioral researchers need to do their work. In addition to carrying out fundamental research the NCBCs play a major role in educating and training researchers to engage in biomedical computing. MAGNet is also one of 12 inter-disciplinary Centers for Cancer Systems Biology (CCSBs), a component of the National Cancer Institute''''s Integrative Cancer Biology Program. The CCSBs provide a core framework for applying systems biology approaches to cancer research through the development and implementation of computational models of processes relevant to cancer prevention, diagnostics and therapeutics. The CCSBs seek to integrate experimental biology with mathematical modeling to foster new insights in the biology and new approaches to the management of cancer. MAGNet''''s Training Core ensures that the methods developed by the Center are integrated into the educational offerings of Columbia University''''s Medical School.
