http://bionumbers.hms.harvard.edu/

Database of key numbers in molecular and cell biology--the quantitative properties of biological systems of interest to computational, systems and molecular cell biologists. Contents of the database range from cell sizes to metabolite concentrations, from reaction rates to generation times, from genome sizes to the number of mitochondria in a cell. Along with the numbers, you'll find the relevant references to the original literature, useful comments, and related numbers. While always of importance to biologists, having numbers in hand is becoming increasingly critical for experimenting, modeling, and analyzing biological systems. BioNumbers was motivated by an appreciation of how long it can take to find even the simplest number in the vast biological literature. All numbers are taken directly from a literature source and that reference is provided with the number. BioNumbers is designed to be highly searchable and queries can be performed by keywords or browsed by menus. BioNumbers is a collaborative community platform where registered users can add content and make comments on existing data. All new entries and commentary are curated to maintain high quality.

http://t3db.org/

Database that combines detailed toxin data with comprehensive toxin target information. The database currently houses 3,053 toxins described by 32,276 synonyms, including pollutants, pesticides, drugs, and food toxins, which are linked to 1,670 corresponding toxin target records. Altogether there are 37,084 toxin, toxin target associations. (March 2014) Each toxin record (ToxCard) contains over 50 data fields and holds information such as chemical properties and descriptors, toxicity values, molecular and cellular interactions, and medical information. This information has been extracted from over 5,454 sources sources, which include other databases, government documents, books, and scientific literature. The focus of the T3DB is on providing mechanisms of toxicity and target proteins for each toxin. This dual nature of the T3DB, in which toxin and toxin target records are interactively linked in both directions, makes it unique from existing databases. It is also fully searchable and supports extensive text, sequence, chemical structure, and relational query searches

http://ecocyc.org/

Database for the bacterium Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655, the EcoCyc project performs literature-based curation of the entire genome, and of transcriptional regulation, transporters, and metabolic pathways. The long-term goal of the project is to describe the molecular catalog of the E. coli cell, as well as the functions of each of its molecular parts, to facilitate a system-level understanding of E. coli. EcoCyc is an electronic reference source for E. coli biologists, and for biologists who work with related microorganisms.

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

Database for genomes that have been completely sequenced, have active research community to contribute gene-specific information, or that are scheduled for intense sequence analysis. Includes nomenclature, map location, gene products and their attributes, markers, phenotypes, and links to citations, sequences, variation details, maps, expression, homologs, protein domains and external databases. All entries follow NCBI's format for data collections. Content of Entrez Gene represents result of curation and automated integration of data from NCBI's Reference Sequence project (RefSeq), from collaborating model organism databases, and from many other databases available from NCBI. Records are assigned unique, stable and tracked integers as identifiers. Content is updated as new information becomes available.

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

Automated system for constructing putative homology groups from complete gene sets of wide range of eukaryotic species. Databse that provides system for automatic detection of homologs, including paralogs and orthologs, among annotated genes of sequenced eukaryotic genomes. HomoloGene processing uses proteins from input organisms to compare and sequence homologs, mapping back to corresponding DNA sequences. Reports include homology and phenotype information drawn from Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man, Mouse Genome Informatics, Zebrafish Information Network, Saccharomyces Genome Database and FlyBase.

http://hendrix.imm.dtu.dk/services/jerne/brede/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 4th, 2023. A database of human data from functional neuroimaging scientific articles containing Talairach coordinates that provides data for novel information retrieval techniques and automated meta-analyses. Each article in this database is identified by a unique number: A WOBIB. Some of the structure of the Brede database is similar to the structure of the BrainMap database (Research Imaging Center, San Antonio). The database is inspired by the hierarchical structure of BrainMap with scientific articles (bib structures) on the highest level containing one or more experiments (exp structure, corresponding to a contrast in general linear model analyses), these in turn comprising one or more locations (loc structures). The information on the bib level (author, title, ...) is setup automatically from PubMed while the rest of the information is entered manually in a Matlab graphical user interface. On the loc level this includes the 3D stereotactic coordinates in either Talairach or MNI space, the brain area (functional, anatomical or cytoarchitectonic area) and magnitude values such as Z-score and P-value. On the exp level information such as modality, scanner and behavioral domain are recorded with external components (such as face recognition or kinetic boundaries) organized in a directed graph and marked up with Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) where possible. The database is distributed as part of the Brede neuroinformatics toolbox (hendrix.imm.dtu.dk/software/brede/) which also provides the functions to manipulate and analyze the data. The Brede Toolbox is a program package primarily written in Matlab. As of 2006/11, 186 papers with 586 experiments.
