http://matrixdb.univ-lyon1.fr/

Freely available database focused on interactions established by extracellular proteins and polysaccharides, taking into account the multimeric nature of the extracellular proteins (e.g. collagens, laminins and thrombospondins are multimers). MatrixDB is an active member of the International Molecular Exchange (IMEx) consortium and has adopted the PSI-MI standards for annotating and exchanging interaction data. It includes interaction data extracted from the literature by manual curation, and offers access to relevant data involving extracellular proteins provided by the IMEx partner databases through the PSICQUIC webservice, as well as data from the Human Protein Reference Database. The database reports mammalian protein-protein and protein-carbohydrate interactions involving extracellular molecules. Interactions with lipids and cations are also reported. MatrixDB is focused on mammalian interactions, but aims to integrate interaction datasets of model organisms when available. MatrixDB provides direct links to databases recapitulating mutations in genes encoding extracellular proteins, to UniGene and to the Human Protein Atlas that shows expression and localization of proteins in a large variety of normal human tissues and cells. MatrixDB allows researchers to perform customized queries and to build tissue- and disease-specific interaction networks that can be visualized and analyzed with Cytoscape or Medusa. Statistics (2013): 2283 extracellular matrix interactions including 2095 protein-protein and 169 protein-glycosaminoglycan interactions.

http://bios.unc.edu/~weisun/software/asSeq.htm

Software that establishes a statistical framework for future developments of eQTL (expression quantitative trait locus) mapping methods using RNA-seq data (e.g., linkage-based eQTL mapping), and the joint study of multiple genetic markers and/or multiple genes. This R package has been submitted to R/bioconductor. It will be available on bioconductor soon. It is recommended to install this R package from bioconductor. You can also install this R package from the source code by yourself. Since the R package contains C code, a C complier is required for installation. With both R and appropriate c complier installed, this R package can be installed using the following command (in Mac Terminal window or Windows command window) R CMD INSTALL asSeq

https://www.metabase.com/

User-contributed list of biological databases available on the internet. Currently there are 1,801 entries, each describing a different database. The databases are described in a semi-structured way by using templates and entries can carry various user comments and annotations. Entries can be searched, listed or browsed by category. The site uses the same MediaWiki technology that powers Wikipedia, The Mediawiki system allows users to participate on many different levels, ranging from authors and editors to curators and designers. MetaBase aims to be a flexible, user-driven (user-created) resource for the biological database community. The main focuses of MetaBase are: * As a basic requirement, MB contains a list of databases, URLs and descriptions of the most commonly used biological databases currently available on the internet. * The system should be flexible, allowing users to contribute, update and maintain the data in different ways. * In the future we aim to generate more communication between the database developer and user communities.

http://www.myexperiment.org/

Community repository and virtual research environment where scientists can safely publish their workflows and experiment plans, share them with groups and find and use those of others. Workflows, other digital objects and collections (called Packs) can be swapped, sorted and searched. It supports Linked data, has a SPARQL Endpoint and REST API and is based on an open source Ruby on Rails codebase. Scientific workflows in various formats can be uploaded. Specific support is provided for Taverna workflows for which the system displays relevant metadata, components and visual previews, that are retrieved directly from workflow files. Version history for workflows is collected. This feature allows the contributor to keep previous versions of the workflow available, when the latest one is uploaded. This brings additional benefit for the users by allowing them to view the development stages of the workflow towards its latest implementation.

The European resource for the collection, organization and dissemination of data on biological macromolecular structures. In collaboration with the other worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) partners - the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (RCSB) and BioMagResBank (BMRB) in the USA and the Protein Data Bank of Japan (PDBj) - they work to collate, maintain and provide access to the global repository of macromolecular structure data. The main objectives of the work at PDBe are: * to provide an integrated resource of high-quality macromolecular structures and related data and make it available to the biomedical community via intuitive user interfaces. * to maintain in-house expertise in all the major structure-determination techniques (X-ray, NMR and EM) in order to stay abreast of technical and methodological developments in these fields, and to work with the community on issues of mutual interest (such as data representation, harvesting, formats and standards, or validation of structural data). * to provide high-quality deposition and annotation facilities for structural data as one of the wwPDB deposition sites. Several sophisticated tools are also available for the structural analysis of macromolecules.
