THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 20,2019.The COG-database has become a powerful tool in the field of comparative genomics. The construction of this data-base is based on sequence homologies of proteins from different completely sequenced genomes. Highly homologous proteins are assigned to clusters of orthologous groups. The updated collection of orthologous protein sets for prokaryotes and eukaryotes is expected to be a useful platform for functional annotation of newly sequenced genomes, including those of complex eukaryotes, and genome-wide evolutionary studies. The availability of multiple, essentially complete genome sequences of prokaryotes and eukaryotes spurred both the demand and the opportunity for the construction of an evolutionary classification of genes from these genomes. Such a classification system based on orthologous relationships between genes appears to be a natural framework for comparative genomics and should facilitate both functional annotation of genomes and large-scale evolutionary studies. Here is a major update of the previously developed system for delineation of Clusters of Orthologous Groups of proteins (COGs) from the sequenced genomes of prokaryotes and unicellular eukaryotes and the construction of clusters of predicted orthologs for 7 eukaryotic genomes, which we named KOGs after eukaryotic orthologous groups. The COG collection currently consists of 138,458 proteins, which form 4873 COGs and comprise 75% of the 185,505 (predicted) proteins encoded in 66 genomes of unicellular organisms. The eukaryotic orthologous groups (KOGs) include proteins from 7 eukaryotic genomes: three animals (the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster and Homo sapiens), one plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, two fungi (Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe), and the intracellular microsporidian parasite Encephalitozoon cuniculi. The current KOG set consists of 4852 clusters of orthologs, which include 59,838 proteins, or approximately 54% of the analyzed eukaryotic 110,655 gene products. Compared to the coverage of the prokaryotic genomes with COGs, a considerably smaller fraction of eukaryotic genes could be included into the KOGs; addition of new eukaryotic genomes is expected to result in substantial increase in the coverage of eukaryotic genomes with KOGs. Examination of the phyletic patterns of KOGs reveals a conserved core represented in all analyzed species and consisting of approximately 20% of the KOG set. This conserved portion of the KOG set is much greater than the ubiquitous portion of the COG set (approximately 1% of the COGs). In part, this difference is probably due to the small number of included eukaryotic genomes, but it could also reflect the relative compactness of eukaryotes as a clade and the greater evolutionary stability of eukaryotic genomes.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on 6/12/25. ITTACA is a database created for Integrated Tumor Transcriptome Array and Clinical data Analysis. ITTACA centralizes public datasets containing both gene expression and clinical data and currently focuses on the types of cancer that are of particular interest to the Institut Curie: breast carcinoma, bladder carcinoma, and uveal melanoma. ITTACA is developed by the Institut Curie Bioinformatics group and the Molecular Oncology group of UMR144 CNRS/Institut Curie. A web interface allows users to carry out different class comparison analyses, including comparison of expression distribution profiles, tests for differential expression, patient survival analyses, and users can define their own patient groups according to clinical data or gene expression levels. The different functionalities implemented in ITTACA are: - To test if one or more gene, of your choice, is differentially expressed between two groups of samples exhibiting distinct phenotypes (Student and Wilcoxon tests). - The detection of genes differentially expressed (Significance Analysis of Microarrays) between two groups of samples. - The creation of histograms which represent the expression level according to a clinical parameter for each sample. - The computation of Kaplan Meier survival curves for each group. ITTACA has been developed to be a useful tool for comparing personal results to the existing results in the field of transcriptome studies with microarrays.

Portal providing access to metagenomics projects, data and tools supported by the DOE Joint Genome Institute (JGI). A primary motivation for metagenomics is that most microbes found in nature exist in complex, interdependent communities and cannot readily be grown in isolation in the laboratory. One can, however, isolate DNA or RNA from the community as a whole, and studies of such communities have revealed a diversity of microbes far beyond those found in culture collections. It is suspected that these uncultivated organisms must harbor considerable as-yet undiscovered genomic, functional, and metabolic features and capabilities. Thus to fully explore microbial genomics, it is imperative that we access the genomes of these elusive players.

hiPathDB is an integrated pathway database that combines the curated human pathway data of NCI-Nature PID, Reactome, BioCarta and KEGG. In total, it includes 1661 pathways consisting of 8976 distinct physical entities. (2010.03.09) hiPathDB provides two different types of integration. The pathway-level integration, conceptually a simple collection of individual pathways, was achieved by devising an elaborate model that takes distinct features of four databases into account and subsequently reformatting all pathways in accordance with our model. The entity-level integration creates a single unified pathway that encompasses all pathways by merging common components. Even though the detailed molecular-level information such as complex formation or post-translational modifications tends to be lost, such integration makes it possible to investigate signaling network over the entire pathways and allows identification of pathway cross-talks. Another strong merit of hiPathDB is the built-in pathway visualization module that supports explorative studies of complex networks in an interactive fashion. The layout algorithm is optimized for virtually automatic visualization of the pathways.

http://bioinfo.au.tsinghua.edu.cn/atie/

A database of publicly available genes, alternatively translational isoforms and their detailed annotation. Alternative translational initiation is one of mechanisms to increase the complexity level of an organism by alternative gene expression pathways. The use of alternative translation initiation codons in a singe mRNA contributes to the generation of protein diversity. The genes produce two or more versions of the encoded proteins, and the shorter version, initiated from a downstream in-frame start codon, lacks the N-terminal amino acids fragment of the full-length isoform version. Since the first discovery of alternative translation initiation, a small, yet growing, number of mRNAs initiating translation from alternative start codons have been reported. Various studies began to emerge focusing on this new field in gene expression and revealed the biological significance of the use of alternative initiation. In response to the need for systematic studies on genes involving alternative translational initiation, Alternative Translational Initiation Database(ATID) is established to provide data of publicly available genes, alternatively translational isoforms and their detailed annotation.

Human genetics data from an immense (78,000) and ethnically diverse population available for secondary analysis to qualified researchers through the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP). It offers the opportunity to identify potential genetic risks and influences on a broad range of health conditions, particularly those related to aging. The GERA cohort is part of the Research Program on Genes, Environment, and Health (RPGEH), which includes more than 430,000 adult members of the Kaiser Permanente Northern California system. Data from this larger cohort include electronic medical records, behavioral and demographic information from surveys, and saliva samples from 200,000 participants obtained with informed consent for genomic and other analyses. The RPGEH database was made possible largely through early support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to accelerate such health research. The genetic information in the GERA cohort translates into more than 55 billion bits of genetic data. Using newly developed techniques, the researchers conducted genome-wide scans to rapidly identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genomes of the people in the GERA cohort. These data will form the basis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) that can look at hundreds of thousands to millions of SNPs at the same time. The RPGEH then combined the genetic data with information derived from Kaiser Permanente''s comprehensive longitudinal electronic medical records, as well as extensive survey data on participants'' health habits and backgrounds, providing researchers with an unparalleled research resource. As information is added to the Kaiser-UCSF database, the dbGaP database will also be updated.
