Database of intrinsic terminators of transcription that is comprized of >2,200,000 bacterial terminators identified from a total of 2036 chromosomes and 1508 plasmids. Information about structural parameters of individual terminators such as sequence, length of stem and loop, mismatches and gaps, U-trail, genomic coordinates and gene name and accession number is available in both tabular form and as a composite figure. Summary statistics for terminator profiles of whole genome can be also obtained. Raw data files for individual genomes can be downloaded (.zip files) for detailed investigations. Data is organized into different tiers such that users can fine-tune their search by entering name of the species, or taxon ID or genomes with a certain number of terminators. To visualize the occurrence of the terminators, an interactive map, with the resolution to single gene level, has been developed.

It helps users retrieve information on genes and proteins. The underlying structure of PubGene can be viewed as a gene-centric database. Gene and protein names are cross-referenced to each other and to terms that are relevant to understanding their biological function, importance in disease and relationship to chemical substances. The result is a literature network organizing information in a form that is easy to navigate.

http://cancer.sanger.ac.uk/cancergenome/projects/cosmic/
Database to store and display somatic mutation information and related details and contains information relating to human cancers. The mutation data and associated information is extracted from the primary literature. In order to provide a consistent view of the data a histology and tissue ontology has been created and all mutations are mapped to a single version of each gene. The data can be queried by tissue, histology or gene and displayed as a graph, as a table or exported in various formats.
Some key features of COSMIC are:
* Contains information on publications, samples and mutations. Includes samples which have been found to be negative for mutations during screening therefore enabling frequency data to be calculated for mutations in different genes in different cancer types.
* Samples entered include benign neoplasms and other benign proliferations, in situ and invasive tumours, recurrences, metastases and cancer cell lines.

A database that curates new experimental and bioinformatic information about the genes and gene products of the model bacterium Escherichia coli K-12 strain MG1655. It has been created to integrate information from post-genomic experiments into a single resource with the aim of providing functional predictions for the 1500 or so gene products for which we have no knowledge of their physiological function. While EchoBASE provides a basic annotation of the genome, taken from other databases, its novelty is in the curation of post-genomic experiments and their linkage to genes of unknown function. Experiments published on E. coli are curated to one of two levels. Papers dealing with the determination of function of a single gene are briefly described, while larger dataset are actually included in the database and can be searched and manipulated. This includes data for proteomics studies, protein-protein interaction studies, microarray data, functional genomic approaches (looking at multiple deletion strains for novel phenotypes) and a wide range of predictions that come out of in silico bioinformatic approaches. The aim of the database is to provide hypothesis for the functions of uncharacterized gene products that may be used by the E. coli research community to further our knowledge of this model bacterium.
