http://www.ebi.ac.uk/goldman-srv/pandit

PANDIT is a collection of multiple sequence alignments and phylogenetic trees covering many common protein domains. It contains: * the seed protein sequence alignments from the Pfam-A (curated families) database (version 17.0) * nucleotide sequence alignments derived from sequences available for the above and using the protein alignments as "templates"; * protein sequence alignments restricted to the family members for which nucleotide sequences are available * inferred phylogenetic trees for each alignment The data in PANDIT and the dataset's development have been frozen owing to a lack of funding support. The existing data, version 17.0 corresponding to Pfam 17.0, remain stable and, we hope, useful. The entire database is also available for download as a flatfile from this website.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/structure

Database of three-dimensional structures of macromolecules that allows the user to retrieve structures for specific molecule types as well as structures for genes and proteins of interest. Three main databases comprise Structure-The Molecular Modeling Database; Conserved Domains and Protein Classification; and the BioSystems Database. Structure also links to the PubChem databases to connect biological activity data to the macromolecular structures. Users can locate structural templates for proteins and interactively view structures and sequence data to closely examine sequence-structure relationships. * Macromolecular structures: The three-dimensional structures of biomolecules provide a wealth of information on their biological function and evolutionary relationships. The Molecular Modeling Database (MMDB), as part of the Entrez system, facilitates access to structure data by connecting them with associated literature, protein and nucleic acid sequences, chemicals, biomolecular interactions, and more. It is possible, for example, to find 3D structures for homologs of a protein of interest by following the Related Structure link in an Entrez Protein sequence record. * Conserved domains and protein classification: Conserved domains are functional units within a protein that act as building blocks in molecular evolution and recombine in various arrangements to make proteins with different functions. The Conserved Domain Database (CDD) brings together several collections of multiple sequence alignments representing conserved domains, in addition to NCBI-curated domains that use 3D-structure information explicitly to define domain boundaries and provide insights into sequence/structure/function relationships. * Small molecules and their biological activity: The PubChem project provides information on the biological activities of small molecules and is a component of NIH''''s Molecular Libraries Roadmap Initiative. PubChem includes three databases: PCSubstance, PCBioAssay, and PCCompound. The PubChem data are linked to other data types (illustrated example) in the Entrez system, making it possible, for example, to retrieve information about a compound and then Link to its biological activity data, retrieve 3D protein structures bound to the compound and interactively view their active sites, and find biosystems that include the compound as a component. * Biological Systems: A biosystem, or biological system, is a group of molecules that interact directly or indirectly, where the grouping is relevant to the characterization of living matter. The NCBI BioSystems Database provides centralized access to biological pathways from several source databases and connects the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system. BioSystem records list and categorize components (illustrated example), such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink icon FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems.

http://blocks.fhcrc.org/blocks/codehop.html

This COnsensus-DEgenerate Hybrid Oligonucleotide Primer (CODEHOP) strategy has been implemented as a computer program that is accessible over the World-Wide Web and is directly linked from the BlockMaker multiple sequence alignment site for hybrid primer prediction beginning with a set of related protein sequences. This is a new primer design strategy for PCR amplification of unknown targets that are related to multiply-aligned protein sequences. Each primer consists of a short 3' degenerate core region and a longer 5' consensus clamp region. Only 3-4 highly conserved amino acid residues are necessary for design of the core, which is stabilized by the clamp during annealing to template molecules. During later rounds of amplification, the non-degenerate clamp permits stable annealing to product molecules. The researchers demonstrate the practical utility of this hybrid primer method by detection of diverse reverse transcriptase-like genes in a human genome, and by detection of C5 DNA methyltransferase homologs in various plant DNAs. In each case, amplified products were sufficiently pure to be cloned without gel fractionation. Sponsors: This work was supported in part by a grant from the M. J. Murdock Charitable Trust and by a grant from NIH. S. P. is a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Fellow of the Life Sciences Research Foundation., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. A database of candidate genes for mapped inherited human diseases. Candidate priorities are automatically established by a data mining algorithm that extracts putative genes in the chromosomal region where the disease is mapped, and evaluates their possible relation to the disease based on the phenotype of the disorder. Data analysis uses a scoring system developed for the possible functional relations of human genes to genetically inherited diseases that have been mapped onto chromosomal regions without assignment of a particular gene. Methodology can be divided in two parts: the association of genes to phenotypic features, and the identification of candidate genes on a chromosonal region by homology. This is an analysis of relations between phenotypic features and chemical objects, and from chemical objects to protein function terms, based on the whole MEDLINE and RefSeq databases.
