http://www.ensemblgenomes.org/

Database portal offering integrated access to genome-scale data from non-vertebrate species of scientific interest, developed using the Ensembl genome annotation and visualization platform. Ensembl Genomes consists of five sub-portals (for bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and invertebrate metazoa) designed to complement the availability of vertebrate genomes in Ensembl. Many of the databases supporting the portal have been built in close collaboration with the scientific community - essential for maintaining the accuracy and usefulness of the resource. A common set of user interfaces (which include a graphical genome browser, FTP, BLAST search, a query optimized data warehouse, programmatic access, and a Perl API) is provided for all domains. Data types incorporated include annotation of (protein and non-protein coding) genes, cross references to external resources, and high throughput experimental data (e.g. data from large scale studies of gene expression and polymorphism visualized in their genomic context). Additionally, extensive comparative analysis has been performed, both within defined clades and across the wider taxonomy, and sequence alignments and gene trees resulting from this can be accessed through the site.

https://cansar.icr.ac.uk/

canSAR is an integrated database that brings together biological, chemical, pharmacological (and eventually clinical) data. Its goal is to integrate this data and make it accessible to cancer research scientists from multiple disciplines, in order to help with hypothesis generation in cancer research and support translational research. This cancer research and drug discovery resource was developed to utilize the growing publicly available biological annotation, chemical screening, RNA interference screening, expression, amplification and 3D structural data. Scientists can, in a single place, rapidly identify biological annotation of a target, its structural characterization, expression levels and protein interaction data, as well as suitable cell lines for experiments, potential tool compounds and similarity to known drug targets. canSAR has, from the outset, been completely use-case driven which has dramatically influenced the design of the back-end and the functionality provided through the interfaces. The Web interface provides flexible, multipoint entry into canSAR. This allows easy access to the multidisciplinary data within, including target and compound synopses, bioactivity views and expert tools for chemogenomic, expression and protein interaction network data.

http://www.aetionomy.eu/

Consortium founded to establish mechanism-based taxonomies for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders (NDD), with the goal of facilitating development of more effective and targeted treatments. To do this, the consortium collects and analyzes data to: * Create new ways to combine underutilized data currently available in the literature, public databases, and from private companies * Determine how to dynamically organize and structure different types of knowledge about NDD * Determine how to apply this knowledge to construct new patient group classification * Identify correlations between disease features at molecular, tissue or organ-specific, and clinical levels * Identify sub-groups of patients based on the molecular cause of their disease, as opposed to the nature and location of their symptoms * Deliver data, tools, and recommendations for the biomedical community in the treatment of NDD A mechanism-based taxonomy is hoped to advance the: # Description and organization of the indication-specific data # Linking of data to disease models, based on causal and correlative relationships The expected outcome of AETIONOMY is a new NDD taxonomy system that distinguishes mixed pathologies, allowing for new features or classes to be added into the taxonomy, all with the goal of aiding drug and biomarker discovery.

http://skylign.org/

A tool for creating logos representing both sequence alignments and profile hidden Markov models. The interactive logos enable scrolling, zooming, and inspection of underlying values. Skylign can avoid sampling bias in sequence alignments by down-weighting redundant sequences and by combining observed counts with informed priors. It also simplifies the representation of gap parameters, and can optionally scale letter heights based on alternate calculations of the conservation of a position.

http://amp.pharm.mssm.edu/Enrichr/

A web-based gene list enrichment analysis tool that provides various types of visualization summaries of collective functions of gene lists. It includes new gene-set libraries, an alternative approach to rank enriched terms, and various interactive visualization approaches to display enrichment results using the JavaScript library, Data Driven Documents (D3). The software can also be embedded into any tool that performs gene list analysis. System-wide profiling of genes and proteins in mammalian cells produce lists of differentially expressed genes / proteins that need to be further analyzed for their collective functions in order to extract new knowledge. Once unbiased lists of genes or proteins are generated from such experiments, these lists are used as input for computing enrichment with existing lists created from prior knowledge organized into gene-set libraries.
