The Stanley Online Genomics Database uses samples from the Stanley Medical Research Institute (SMRI) Brain Bank. These samples were processed and run on gene expression arrays by a variety of researchers in collaboration with the SMRI. These researchers have performed analyses on their respective studies using a range of analytic approaches. All of the genomic data have been aggregated in this online database, and a consistent set of analyses have been applied to each study. Additionally, a comprehensive set of cross-study analyses have been performed. A thorough collection of gene expression summaries are provided, inclusive of patient demographics, disease subclasses, regulated biological pathways, and functional classifications. Raw data is also available to download. The database is derived from two sets of brain samples, the Stanley Array collection and the Stanley Consortium collection. The Stanley Array collection contains 105 patients, and the Stanley Consortium collection contains 60 patients. Multiple genomic studies have been conducted using these brain samples. From these studies, twelve were selected for inclusion in the database on the basis of number of patients studied, genomic platform used, and data quality. The Consortium collection studies have fewer patients but more diversity in brain regions and array platforms, while the Array collection studies are more homogenous. There are tradeoffs, the Consortium results will be more variable, but findings may be more broadly representative. The collections contain brain samples from subjects in four main groups: Bipolar Schizophrenia, Depression, and Controls Brain regions used in the studies include: Broadman Area 6, Broadman Area 8/9, Broadman Area 10, Broadman Area 46, Cerebellum The 12 studies encompass a range of microarray platforms: Affymetrix HG-U95Av2, Affymetrix HG-U133A, Affymetrix HG-U133 2.0+, Codelink Human 20K, Agilent Human I, Custom cDNA Publications based on any of the clinical or genomic data should credit the Stanley Medical Research Institute, as well as any individual SMRI collaborators whose data is being used. Publications which make use of analytic results/methods in the database should additionally cite Dr. Michael Elashoff. Registration is required to access the data.

http://autosome.ru/HOCOMOCO/

A comprehensive collection of human transcription factor binding sites models. DNA sequences of TF binding regions obtained by both pregenomic and high-throughput methods were collected from existing databases and other public data. The ChIPMunk software was used to construct positional weight matrices. Four motif discovery strategies were tested based on different motif shape priors including flat and periodic priors associated with DNA helix pitch. A quality rating was manually assigned to each model based on known binding preferences. An appropriate TFBS model was selected for each TF, with similar models selected for related TFs. In any case only one model per TF was selected unless there was additional evidence for two distinct binding models or different stable modes of dimerization. All TFBS models and initial binding segments data used for motif discovery were mapped to UniPROT IDs.

http://operons.ibt.unam.mx/OperonPredictor/

The Prokaryotic Operon DataBase (ProOpDB) constitutes one of the most precise and complete repository of operon predictions in our days. Using our novel and highly accurate operon algorithm, we have predicted the operon structures of more than 1,200 prokaryotic genomes. ProOpDB offers diverse alternatives by which a set of operon predictions can be retrieved including: i) organism name, ii) metabolic pathways, as defined by the KEGG database, iii) gene orthology, as defined by the COG database, iv) conserved protein motifs, as defined by the Pfam database, v) reference gene, vi) reference operon, among others. In order to limit the operon output to non-redundant organisms, ProOpDB offers an efficient protocol to select the more representative organisms based on a precompiled phylogenetic distances matrix. In addition, the ProOpDB operon predictions are used directly as the input data of our Gene Context Tool (GeConT) to visualize their genomic context and retrieve the sequence of their corresponding 5�� regulatory regions, as well as the nucleotide or amino acid sequences of their genes. The prediction algorithm The algorithm is a multilayer perceptron neural network (MLP) classifier, that used as input the intergenic distances of contiguous genes and the functional relationship scores of the STRING database between the different groups of orthologous proteins, as defined in the COG database. Nevertheless, the operon prediction of our method is not restricted to only those genes with a COG assignation, since we successfully defined new groups of orthologous genes and obtained, by extrapolation, a set of equivalent STRING-like scores based on conserved gene pairs on different genomes. Since the STRING functional relationships scores are determined in an un-bias manner and efficiently integrates a large amount of information coming from different sources and kind of evidences, the prediction made by our MLP are considerably less influenced by the bias imposed in the training procedure using one specific organism.

Interactive database which incorporates a suite of tools designed to aid the interpretation of submicroscopic chromosomal imbalance. Used to enhance clinical diagnosis by retrieving information from bioinformatics resources relevant to the imbalance found in the patient. Contributing to the DECIPHER database is a Consortium, comprising an international community of academic departments of clinical genetics. Each center maintains control of its own patient data (which are password protected within the center''''s own DECIPHER project) until patient consent is given to allow anonymous genomic and phenotypic data to become freely viewable within Ensembl and other genome browsers. Once data are shared, consortium members are able to gain access to the patient report and contact each other to discuss patients of mutual interest, thus facilitating the delineation of new microdeletion and microduplication syndromes.

http://biogps.org/

An extensible and customizable gene annotation portal that emphasizes community extensibility and user customizability. It is a complete resource for learning about gene and protein function. Community extensibility reflects a belief that any BioGPS user should be able to add new content to BioGPS using the simple plugin interface, completely independently of the core developer team. User customizability recognizes that not all users are interested in the same set of gene annotation data, so the gene report layouts enable each user to define the information that is most relevant to them. Currently, BioGPS supports eight species: Human (Homo sapiens), Mouse (Mus musculus), Rat (Rattus norvegicus), Fruitfly (Drosophila melanogaster), Nematode (Caenorhabditis elegans), Zebrafish (Danio rerio), Thale-cress (Arabidopsis thaliana), Frog (Xenopus tropicalis), and Pig (Sus scrofa). BioGPS presents data in an ortholog-centric format, which allows users to display mouse plugins next to human ones. Our data for defining orthologs comes from NCBI's HomoloGene database.

http://scansite.mit.edu/

Scansite searches for motifs within proteins that are likely to be phosphorylated by specific protein kinases or bind to domains such as SH2 domains, 14-3-3 domains or PDZ domains. The Motifscanner program utilizes an entropy approach that assesses the probability of a site matching the motif using the selectivity values and sums the logs of the probability values for each amino acid in the candidate sequence. The program then indicates the percentile ranking of the candidate motif in respect to all potential motifs in proteins of a protein database. When available, percentile scores of some confirmed phosphorylation sites for the kinase of interests or confirmed binding sites of the domain of interest are provided for comparison with the scores of the candidate motifs.
