Service that integrates cross-references from several biological databases into a graph model with multiple types of edges, such as protein interactions, gene-disease associations and gene ontology annotations. Edges are weighted based on their type, reliability, and informativeness. In particular, it formulates protein interaction prediction and disease gene prioritization tasks as instances of link prediction. The predictions are based on a proximity measure computed on the integrated graph.

GOtcha provides a prediction of a set of GO terms that can be associated with a given query sequence. Each term is scored independently and the scores calibrated against reference searches to give an accurate percentage likelihood of correctness. These results can be displayed graphically. Why is GOtcha different to what is already out there and why should you be using it? * GOtcha uses a method where it combines information from many search hits, up to and including E-values that are normally discarded. This gives much better sensitivity than other methods. * GOtcha provides a score for each individual term, not just the leaf term or branch. This allows the discrimination between confident assignments that one would find at a more general level and the more specific terms that one would have lower confidence in. * The scores GOtcha provides are calibrated to give a real estimate of correctness. This is expressed as a percentage, giving a result that non-experts are comfortable in interpreting. * GOtcha provides graphical output that gives an overview of the confidence in, or potential alternatives for, particular GO term assignments. The tool is currently web-based; contact David Martin for details of the standalone version. Platform: Online tool

http://wishart.biology.ualberta.ca/polysearch/index.htm
A web-based tool that supports more than 50 different classes of queries against nearly a dozen different types of text, scientific abstract or bioinformatic databases. The typical query supported by PolySearch is Given X, find all Y''s where X or Y can be diseases, tissues, cell compartments, gene/protein names, SNPs, mutations, drugs and metabolites. PolySearch also exploits a variety of techniques in text mining and information retrieval to identify, highlight and rank informative abstracts, paragraphs or sentences.

GOanna is used to find annotations for proteins using a similarity search. The input can be a list of IDs or it can be a list of sequences in FASTA format. GOanna will retrieve the sequences if necessary and conduct the specified BLAST search against a user-specified database of GO annotated proteins. The resulting file contains GO annotations of the top BLAST hits. The sequence alignments are also provided so the user can use these to access the quality of the match. Platform: Online tool

Database of known and predicted mammalian and eukaryotic protein-protein interactions, it is designed to be both a resource for the laboratory scientist to explore known and predicted protein-protein interactions, and to facilitate bioinformatics initiatives exploring protein interaction networks. It has been built by mapping high-throughput (HTP) data between species. Thus, until experimentally verified, these interactions should be considered predictions. It remains one of the most comprehensive sources of known and predicted eukaryotic PPI. It contains 490,600 Source Interactions, 370,002 Predicted Interactions, for a total of 846,116 interactions, and continues to expand as new protein-protein interaction data becomes available.

http://funsimmat.bioinf.mpi-inf.mpg.de
FunSimMat is a comprehensive resource of semantic and functional similarity values. It allows ranking disease candidate proteins for OMIM diseases and searching for functional similarity values for proteins (extracted from UniProt), and protein families (Pfam, SMART). FunSimMat provides several different semantic and functional similarity measures for each protein pair using the Gene Ontology annotation from UniProtKB and the Gene Ontology Annotation project at EBI (GOA). There are several search options available: Disease candidate prioritization: * Rank candidate proteins using any OMIM disease entry * Compare a list of proteins to any OMIM disease entry * Compare all human proteins to any OMIM disease entry Functional similarity: * Compare one protein / protein family to a list of proteins / protein families * Compare a list of GO terms to a list of proteins / protein families Semantic similarity: * For a list of GO terms, FunSimMat performs an all-against-all comparison and displays the semantic similarity values. FunSimMat provides an XML-RPC interface for performing automatic queries and processing of the results as well as a RestLike Interface. Platform: Online tool

Computational biology research at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) pursues computational biology research projects and the development of bioinformatics resources in the areas of: sequence-structure analysis; gene regulation; molecular pathways and networks, and diagnostic and prognostic indicators. The mission of cBio is to move the theoretical methods and genome-scale data resources of computational biology into everyday laboratory practice and use, and is reflected in the organization of cBio into research and service components ~ the intention being that new computational methods created through the process of scientific inquiry should be generalized and supported as open-source and shared community resources. Faculty from cBio participate in graduate training provided through the following graduate programs: * Gerstner Sloan-Kettering Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences * Graduate Training Program in Computational Biology and Medicine Integral to much of the research and service work performed by cBio is the creation and use of software tools and data resources. The tools that we have created and utilize provide evidence of our involvement in the following areas: * Cancer Genomics * Data Repositories * iPhone & iPod Touch * microRNAs * Pathways * Protein Function * Text Analysis * Transcription Profiling

RNA is not only a carrier of genetic information, but also a catalyst and a guide for sequence-specific recognition and processing of other RNA molecules. This lab investigates the regulatory mechanisms of RNA interference, RNA-mediated translational control, and nuclear pre-mRNA splicing. Classical and combinatorial biochemical techniques are used to analyze the function of the RNA- and protein-components involved in those processes.
