http://www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/databases/profunc/index.html

The ProFunc server had been developed to help identify the likely biochemical function of a protein from its three-dimensional structure. It uses both sequence- and structure-based methods including fold matching, residue conservation, surface cleft analysis, and functional 3D templates, to identify both the protein''''s likely active site and possible homologues in the PDB. Often, where one method fails to provide any functional insight another may be more helpful. You can submit your own structure, analyze an existing PDB entry, or retrieve the results of a previously submitted run. The files are usually stored for about 6 months before being deleted. However, they are stored on a partition that is not backed up; so, in principle, they could disappear at any time.

http://kt.ijs.si/software/SEGS/

A web tool for descriptive analysis of microarray data. The analysis is performed by looking for descriptions of gene sets that are statistically significantly over- or under-expressed between different scenarios within the context of a genome-scale experiments (DNA microarray). Descriptions are defined by using the terms from the Gene Ontology (GO), the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways and gene-gene interactions found in the ENTREZ database. Gene annotations by GO and KEGG terms can also be found in the ENTREZ database. The tool provides three procedures for testing the enrichment of the gene sets (over- or under-expressed): Fisher's exact test, GSEA and PAGE, and option for combining the results of the tests. Because of the multiple-hypothesis testing nature of the problem, all the p-values are computed using the permutation testing method.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented July 6, 2016. This blog, which is maintained under the aegis of the Concept Web Alliance, is devoted to the Concept Web a dynamic, interactive fabric of concepts and their relationships. The Concept Web is constructed from, inter alia, research literature, Internet databases and other web sites together with off-line resources. The aim of creating the Concept Web is to remove both redundancy and ambiguity from available knowledge in order to help deal with information overload, to semantically "connect" concepts, and so to maximize the potential for knowledge discovery.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 9, 2016. A web server that allows users to efficiently identify and prioritize high-risk SNPs according to their phenotypic risks and putative functional effects. A unique feature is that the functional effect information used for SNP prioritization is always up-to-date, because FASTSNP extracts the information from 11 external web servers at query time using a team of web wrapper agents. Moreover, FASTSNP is extendable by deploying more Web wrapper agents. FASTSNP provides three options for users to submit requests. If users already have some candidate SNPs on a candidate gene, they may use Query by Candidate Gene to select the specific SNPs on the gene to perform prioritization. If users have a specified SNP or a list of SNP rsid's needs to be prioritized, they can use Query by SNP option and upload the SNP list in an Excel-format file. Finally, if users have a novel SNP sequence, FASTSNP provides Novel SNP analysis. FASTSNP will generate a SNP Function Report for each SNP. Users can export SNP data to an excel file for further genotyping processes. Other features of FASTSNP include SNP quality checking and haplotype LD information.

http://www.t-profiler.org

One of the key challenges in the analysis of gene expression data is how to relate the expression level of individual genes to the underlying transcriptional programs and cellular state. The T-profiler tool hosted on this website uses the t-test to score changes in the average activity of pre-defined groups of genes. The gene groups are defined based on Gene Ontology categorization, ChIP-chip experiments, upstream matches to a consensus transcription factor binding motif, and location on the same chromosome, respectively. If desired, an iterative procedure can be used to select a single, optimal representative from sets of overlapping gene groups. A jack-knife procedure is used to make calculations more robust against outliers. T-profiler makes it possible to interpret microarray data in a way that is both intuitive and statistically rigorous, without the need to combine experiments or choose parameters. Currently, gene expression data from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans are supported. Users can submit their microarray data for analysis by clicking on one of the two organism-specific tabs above. Platform: Online tool

http://dire.dcode.org

Web server based on the Enhancer Identification (EI) method, to determine the chromosomal location and functional characteristics of distant regulatory elements (REs) in higher eukaryotic genomes. The server uses gene co-expression data, comparative genomics, and combinatorics of transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) to find TFBS-association signatures that can be used for discriminating specific regulatory functions. DiRE's unique feature is the detection of REs outside of proximal promoter regions, as it takes advantage of the full gene locus to conduct the search. DiRE can predict common REs for any set of input genes for which the user has prior knowledge of co-expression, co-function, or other biologically meaningful grouping. The server predicts function-specific REs consisting of clusters of specifically-associated TFBSs, and it also scores the association of individual TFs with the biological function shared by the group of input genes. Its integration with the Array2BIO server allows users to start their analysis with raw microarray expression data.

Ricopili is a tool for visualizing regions of interest in select GWAS data sets. How it works Choose a data set and enter a genomic location or a gene name in the form below. A .pdf plot will be generated, as well as a text file with single SNP results. You can also specify the following options: * Clumping: Independent regions will be colored differently, to highlight LD. If you request more than one clump, be sure to have at least one SNP passing the specified p-value-threshold (for performance reasons.) * SNP: SNPs in the region are colored by LD to this index SNP. * Anonymity: Frequency information is from HapMap to protect anonymity. * NHGRI results: Results from the NHGRI GWAS catalog will be included in the plot. Finally, please note that this tool is in development (it was released on September 19th, 2011) and should be considered beta. In particular, our development server is not equipped for high traffic. If the server fails to respond to your request, please try again at a later time.

Three-dimensional digital connectome atlas of the C57Black/6J mouse brain and catalog of neural tracer injection cases, which will eventually cover the entire brain. Serial sections of each case are available to view at 10x magnification in the interactive iConnectome viewer. The Image Gallery provides a glimpse into some of the highlights of their data set. Representative images of multi-fluorescent tracer labeling can be viewed, while more in depth examination of these and all other cases can be performed in the iConnectome viewer. Phase 1 of this project involves generating a physical map of the basic global wiring diagram by applying proven, state of the art experimental circuit tracing methods systematically, uniformly, and comprehensively to the structural organization of all major neuronal pathways in the mouse brain. Connectivity imaging data for the whole mouse brain at cellular resolution will be presented within a standard 3D anatomic frame available through the website and accompanied by a comprehensive searchable online database. A Phase 2 goal for the future will allow users to view, search, and generate driving direction-like roadmaps of neuronal pathways linking any and all structures in the nervous system. This could be looked on as a pilot project for more ambitious projects in species with larger brains, such as human, and for providing a reliable framework for more detailed local circuitry mapping projects in the mouse.
