The main focus of this Computational Biology group is to predict function and to gain insights into evolution by comparative analysis of complex molecular data. The group currently works on three different scales: * genes and proteins, * protein networks and cellular processes, and * phenotypes and environments. They require both tool development and applications. Some selected projects include comparative gene, genome and metagenome analysis, mapping interactions to proteins and pathways as well as the study of temporal and spatial protein network aspects. All are geared towards the bridging of genotype and phenotype through a better understanding of molecular and cellular processes. The services - resources & tools, developed by Bork Group, are mainly designed and maintained for research & academic purposes. Most of services are published and documented in one or more papers. All our tools can be completely customized and integrated into your existing framework. This service is provided by the company biobyte solutions GmbH. Please visit their tools and services pages for full details and more information. Standard commercial licenses for our tools are also available through biobyte solutions GmbH. The group is partially associated with Max Delbr��ck Center for Molecular Medicine (MDC), Berlin.

Software integrated tool for conducting automatic and manual sequence alignment, inferring phylogenetic trees, mining web based databases, estimating rates of molecular evolution, and testing evolutionary hypotheses. Used for comparative analysis of DNA and protein sequences to infer molecular evolutionary patterns of genes, genomes, and species over time. MEGA version 4 expands on existing facilities for editing DNA sequence data from autosequencers, mining Web-databases, performing automatic and manual sequence alignment, analyzing sequence alignments to estimate evolutionary distances, inferring phylogenetic trees, and testing evolutionary hypotheses. MEGA version 6 enables inference of timetrees, as it implements RelTime method for estimating divergence times for all branching points in phylogeny.

http://matrixdb.univ-lyon1.fr/

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.

http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastx&BLAST_PROGRAMS=blastx&PAGE_TYPE=BlastSearch&SHOW_DEFAULTS=on&LINK_LOC=blasthome

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.

http://bioinf.scri.sari.ac.uk/cgi-bin/atnopdb/home

Database of proteins found in the nucleoli of Arabidopsis, identified through proteomic analysis. The Arabidopsis Nucleolar Protein database (AtNoPDB) provides information on the plant proteins in comparison to human and yeast proteins, and images of cellular localizations for over a third of the proteins. A proteomic analysis was carried out of nucleoli purified from Arabidopsis cell cultures and to date 217 proteins have been identified. Many proteins were known nucleolar proteins or proteins involved in ribosome biogenesis. Some proteins, such as spliceosomal and snRNP proteins, and translation factors, were unexpected. In addition, proteins of unknown function which were either plant-specific or conserved between human and plant, and proteins with differential localizations were identified.
