Freely available database focused on interactions established by extracellular proteins and polysaccharides, taking into account the multimeric nature of the extracellular proteins (e.g. collagens, laminins and thrombospondins are multimers). MatrixDB is an active member of the International Molecular Exchange (IMEx) consortium and has adopted the PSI-MI standards for annotating and exchanging interaction data. It includes interaction data extracted from the literature by manual curation, and offers access to relevant data involving extracellular proteins provided by the IMEx partner databases through the PSICQUIC webservice, as well as data from the Human Protein Reference Database. The database reports mammalian protein-protein and protein-carbohydrate interactions involving extracellular molecules. Interactions with lipids and cations are also reported. MatrixDB is focused on mammalian interactions, but aims to integrate interaction datasets of model organisms when available. MatrixDB provides direct links to databases recapitulating mutations in genes encoding extracellular proteins, to UniGene and to the Human Protein Atlas that shows expression and localization of proteins in a large variety of normal human tissues and cells. MatrixDB allows researchers to perform customized queries and to build tissue- and disease-specific interaction networks that can be visualized and analyzed with Cytoscape or Medusa. Statistics (2013): 2283 extracellular matrix interactions including 2095 protein-protein and 169 protein-glycosaminoglycan interactions.

Web application to search protein databases using a translated nucleotide query. Translated BLAST services are useful when trying to find homologous proteins to a nucleotide coding region. Blastx compares translational products of the nucleotide query sequence to a protein database. Because blastx translates the query sequence in all six reading frames and provides combined significance statistics for hits to different frames, it is particularly useful when the reading frame of the query sequence is unknown or it contains errors that may lead to frame shifts or other coding errors. Thus blastx is often the first analysis performed with a newly determined nucleotide sequence and is used extensively in analyzing EST sequences. This search is more sensitive than nucleotide blast since the comparison is performed at the protein level.

Initiative to define community standards for data representation in proteomics to facilitate data comparison, exchange and verification. The main organizational unit is the work group, with a Gel Electrophoresis (GEL) work group, a Mass Spectrometry (MS) work group, a Molecular Interactions (MI) work group, a Protein Modifications (MOD) work group, a Proteomics Informatics (PI) work group, and a Sample Processing (SP) work group. The Gel Electrophoresis (GEL) work group aims to develop reporting requirements that supplement the Minimum Information About a Proteomics Experiment (MIAPE) parent document, describing the minimum information that should be reported about gel-based experimental techniques used in proteomics. The group will also develop data formats for capturing MIAPE-compliant data about gel electrophoresis and informatics performed on gel images. The Mass Spectrometry Standards Working Group defines community data formats and controlled vocabulary terms facilitating data exchange and archiving in the field of proteomics mass spectrometry. A past achievement is the mzData standard, which captures mass spectrometry output data. mzData's aim is to unite the large number of current formats (pkl's, dta's, mgf's, .....) into a single format. mzData has been released but is now deprecated in favor of mzML. The Molecular Interactions workgroup is concentrating on improving the annotation and representation of molecular interaction data wherever it is published, be this in journal articles, authors web-sites or public domain databases; and improving the accessibility of molecular interaction data to the user community. By using a common standard data can be downloaded from multiple sources and easily combined using a single parser. The protein modification workgroup focuses on developing a consensus nomenclature and provide an ontology reconciling in a hierarchical representation the complementary descriptions of residue modifications. The protein modification ontology (PSI-MOD) is available in OBO format or in OBO.xml. A spreadsheet containing the mapping of the descriptive labels used in various databases and search engines, the consensus list of proposed short name for protein modifications established by collaborative effort of mass spectrometry community, and the proposed rules and recommendations for this nomenclature are available. These short names are included in the ontology as synonyms of the corresponding terms. The Proteomics Informatics Standards Group (PSI-PI) goals are to provide a set of minimal reporting requirements which augment the MIAPE reporting guidelines with respect to analysis of data derived from proteomics experiments; to provide vendor-neutral and standard formats for representing results of analyzing and processing experimental data; to foster adoption of the format by highlighting efforts made by vendors and individuals that utilize the format in their products. The remit of the Sample Processing Working Group is to produce reporting guidelines, data exchange formats and controlled vocabulary covering all separation techniques not considered to be "classical" one- or two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (cf. the Gel WG home page), along with other kinds of sample handling and processing (for example, "tagging" proteins or peptides, splitting, combining and storing samples). Where possible we seek to develop our products in collaboration with all proteomics stakeholders and, where relevant, developers from other standards communities, most notably metabolomics. * Minimum reporting requirements: The evolving Minimum Information About a Proteomics Experiment (MIAPE) documents offer guidelines on how to adequately report a proteomics experiment. It is expected that these documents will be published, and that the requirements within will be enforced by journals, compliant repositories and funders (cf. MIAME). * XML formats for data exchange: Derived from the FuGE general object model, the formats developed by this workgroup are designed to function both as standalone files and as part of a "parent" FuGE-ML document. These formats will facilitate data exchange between researchers, and submission to repositories or journals. * Controlled vocabularies (CVs) and ontology: Lists of clearly defined terms are crucial for the construction of unambiguously worded data files. In addition to providing supporting CVs for the individual data capture formats as part of the integrated PSI CV, the Sample Processing WG will contribute terms to the Functional Genomics Ontology (FuGO).

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on April 28,2023. An initiative to develop a molecular classification schema that is both clinically and biologically meaningful, based on gene expression and genomic data from tumors (Gliomas) of patients who will be prospectively followed through natural history and treatment phase of their illness. The study will also explore gene expression profiles to determine the responsiveness of the patients and correlate with discrete chromosomal abnormalities. The initiative was designed to obtain a large amount of molecular data on DNA and RNA of freshly collected tumor samples that were collected, processed and analyzed in a standardized fashion to allow for large-scale cross sample analysis. The sample collection is accompanied by careful and prospective clinical data acquisition, allowing a variety of matched molecular and clinical data permitting a wide variety of analyses. GMDI has accrued fresh frozen tumors in the retrospective phase (all from the Henry Ford Hospital, without germline DNA) and fresh frozen tumors in the prospective phase (from a variety of institutions). In addition to characterizing the samples from patients enrolled in GMDI, the microarray group has generated genomic-scale analyses of the many human and canine glioma initiating cells/glioma stem cells (GIC/GSC) lines, as well as many canine and murine normal neural stem cell (NSC) lines produced in laboratory.
