THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 19,2019. Analyzing protein structure projection on exon-intron structure of corresponding gene through years led to several fundamental conclusions about structural and functional organization of the protein. According to these results we decided to map the protein functional sites. So we created the database SitEx that keep the information about this mapping and included the BLAST search and 3D similar structure search using PDB3DScan for the polypeptide encoded by one exon, participating in organizing the functional site. This will help: # to study the positions of the functional sites in exon structure; # to make the complex analysis of the protein function; # to exposure the exons that took part in exon shuffling and came from bacterial genomes; # to study the peculiarities of coding the polypeptide structures. Currently, SitEx contains information about 9994 functional sites presented in 2021 proteins described in proteomes of 17 organisms.

http://newt-omics.mpi-bn.mpg.de/index.php

Newt-omics is a database, which enables researchers to locate, retrieve and store data sets dedicated to the molecular characterization of newts. Newt-omics is a transcript-centered database, based on an Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) data set from the newt, covering ~50,000 Sanger sequenced transcripts and a set of high-density microarray data, generated from regenerating hearts. Newt-omics also contains a large set of peptides identified by mass spectrometry, which was used to validate 13,810 ESTs as true protein coding. Newt-omics is open to implement additional high-throughput data sets without changing the database structure. Via a user-friendly interface Newt-omics allows access to a huge set of molecular data without the need for prior bioinformatical expertise. The newt Notopthalmus viridescens is the master of regeneration. This organism is known for more than 200 years for its exceptional regenerative capabilities. Newts can completely replace lost appendages like limb and tail, lens and retina and parts of the central nervous system. Moreover, after cardiac injury newts can rebuild the functional myocardium with no scar formation. To date only very limited information from public databases is available. Newt-Omics aims to provide a comprehensive platform of expressed genes during tissue regeneration, including extensive annotations, expression data and experimentally verified peptide sequences with yet no homology to other publicly available gene sequences. The goal is to obtain a detailed understanding of the molecular processes underlying tissue regeneration in the newt, that may lead to the development of approaches, efficiently stimulating regenerative pathways in mammalians. * Number of contigs: 26594 * Number of est in contigs: 48537 * Number of transcripts with verified peptide: 5291 * Number of peptides: 15169

http://www.nematodes.org/nembase4/

NEMBASE is a comprehensive Nematode Transcriptome Database including 63 nematode species, over 600,000 ESTs and over 250,000 proteins. Nematode parasites are of major importance in human health and agriculture, and free-living species deliver essential ecosystem services. The genomics revolution has resulted in the production of many datasets of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from a phylogenetically wide range of nematode species, but these are not easily compared. NEMBASE4 presents a single portal into extensively functionally annotated, EST-derived transcriptomes from over 60 species of nematodes, including plant and animal parasites and free-living taxa. Using the PartiGene suite of tools, we have assembled the publicly available ESTs for each species into a high-quality set of putative transcripts. These transcripts have been translated to produce a protein sequence resource and each is annotated with functional information derived from comparison with well-studied nematode species such as Caenorhabditis elegans and other non-nematode resources. By cross-comparing the sequences within NEMBASE4, we have also generated a protein family assignment for each translation. The data are presented in an openly accessible, interactive database. An example of the utility of NEMBASE4 is that it can examine the uniqueness of the transcriptomes of major clades of parasitic nematodes, identifying lineage-restricted genes that may underpin particular parasitic phenotypes, possible viral pathogens of nematodes, and nematode-unique protein families that may be developed as drug targets.

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/LepChorionDB/

A relational database of Lepidoptera chorion proteins. The proteinaceous Lepidopteran chorions are used in our lab, as a model system towards unraveling the routes and rules of formation of natural protective amyloids. Therefore, we constructed LepChorionDB a relational database, containing all Lepidoptera chorion proteins identified to date. Lepidoptera chorion proteins can be classified in two major protein families, A and B. This classification was based on multiple sequence alignments of conserved key residues, in the central domain of, well characterized, silkmoth chorion proteins. These alignments were used to build Hidden Markov Models in order to search various DataBases. This work was a collaboration of the Department of Cell Biology and Biophysics, University of Athens and the Centre of Immunology & Transplantation Biomedical Research Foundation, Academy of Athens.

A database of Beta-barrel outer membrane proteins from Gram-negative bacteria. The web interface of OMPdb offers the user the ability not only to view the available data, but also to submit advanced queries for text search within the database''s protein entries or run BLAST searches against the database. The most up-to-date version of the database (as well as all past versions) can be downloaded in various formats (flat text, XML format or raw FASTA sequences). For constructing OMPdb, multiple freely accessible resources were combined and a detailed literature search was performed. The classification of OMPdb''s protein entries into families is based mainly on structural and functional criteria. Information included in the database consists of sequence data, as well as annotation for structural characteristics (such as the transmembrane segments), literature references and links to other public databases, features that are unique worldwide. Along with the database, a collection of profile Hidden Markov Models that were shown to be characteristic for Beta-barrel outer membrane proteins was also compiled. This set, when used in combination with our previously developed algorithms (PRED-TMBB, MCMBB and ConBBPRED) will serve as a powerful tool in matters of discrimination and classification of novel Beta-barrel proteins and whole-genome analyses., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

Database that provides access to biological systems and their component genes, proteins, and small molecules, as well as literature describing those biosystems and other related data throughout Entrez. 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. BioSystem records list and categorize components, such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems. A number of databases provide diagrams showing the components and products of biological pathways along with corresponding annotations and links to literature. This database was developed as a complementary project to (1) serve as a centralized repository of data; (2) connect the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system; and (3) facilitate computation on biosystems data. The NCBI BioSystems Database currently contains records from several source databases: KEGG, BioCyc (including its Tier 1 EcoCyc and MetaCyc databases, and its Tier 2 databases), Reactome, the National Cancer Institute's Pathway Interaction Database, WikiPathways, and Gene Ontology (GO). It includes several types of records such as pathways, structural complexes, and functional sets, and is desiged to accomodate other record types, such as diseases, as data become available. Through these collaborations, the BioSystems database facilitates access to, and provides the ability to compute on, a wide range of biosystems data. If you are interested in depositing data into the BioSystems database, please contact them.
