http://www.bioguo.org/AnimalTFDB/
A comprehensive transcription factor (TF) database in which they identified and classified all the genome-wide TFs in 50 sequenced animal genomes (Ensembl release version 60). In addition to TFs, it also collects transcription co-factors and chromatin remodeling factors of those genomes, which play regulatory roles in transcription. Here they defined the TFs as proteins containing a sequence-specific DNA-binding domain (DBD) and regulating target gene expression. Currently, the AnimalTFDB classifies all the animal TFs into 72 families according to their conserved DBDs. Gene lists of transcription factors, transcription co-factors and chromatin remodeling factors of each species are available for downloading., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

Database that aggregates sample information for reference samples (e.g. Coriell Cell lines) and samples for which data exist in one of the EBI''''s assay databases such as ArrayExpress, the European Nucleotide Archive or PRoteomics Identificates DatabasE. It provides links to assays for specific samples, and accepts direct submissions of sample information. The goals of the BioSample Database include: # recording and linking of sample information consistently within EBI databases such as ENA, ArrayExpress and PRIDE; # minimizing data entry efforts for EBI database submitters by enabling submitting sample descriptions once and referencing them later in data submissions to assay databases and # supporting cross database queries by sample characteristics. The database includes a growing set of reference samples, such as cell lines, which are repeatedly used in experiments and can be easily referenced from any database by their accession numbers. Accession numbers for the reference samples will be exchanged with a similar database at NCBI. The samples in the database can be queried by their attributes, such as sample types, disease names or sample providers. A simple tab-delimited format facilitates submissions of sample information to the database, initially via email to biosamples (at) ebi.ac.uk. Current data sources: * European Nucleotide Archive (424,811 samples) * PRIDE (17,001 samples) * ArrayExpress (1,187,884 samples) * ENCODE cell lines (119 samples) * CORIELL cell lines (27,002 samples) * Thousand Genome (2,628 samples) * HapMap (1,417 samples) * IMSR (248,660 samples)

Database containing descriptions of biological source materials used in experimental assays. Sources include: GenBank, Sequence Read Archive (SRA), Coriell, ATCC. Submissions are supported by a web-based Submission Portal that guides users through a series of forms for input of rich metadata describing their samples. As the capacity and complexity of biological data sets expands, databases face new challenges in ensuring that the information is adequately organized and described. The NCBI BioSample database is being developed to help address the challenges by providing the means by which data generators can organize and describe a broad range of sample types, and link to corresponding sets of experimental data in archival databases.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Structure/ibis/ibis.cgi
A web server and database that organizes, analyzes and predicts interactions between proteins and other biomolecules. For a given protein sequence or structure query, it reports protein-protein, protein-small molecule, protein nucleic acids and protein-ion interactions observed in experimentally-determined structural biological assemblies. It also infers/predicts interacting partners and binding sites by homology, by inspecting the protein complexes formed by close homologs of a given query. To ensure biological relevance of inferred binding sites, the IBIS algorithm clusters binding sites formed by homologs based on binding site sequence and structure conservation.

A database for functional prediction and annotation of all potential non-synonymous single-nucleotide variants (nsSNVs) in the human genome. Version 2.0 is based on the Gencode release 9 / Ensembl version 64 and includes a total of 87,347,043 nsSNVs and 2,270,742 essential splice site SNVs. It compiles prediction scores from six prediction algorithms (SIFT, Polyphen2, LRT, MutationTaster, MutationAssessor and FATHMM), three conservation scores (PhyloP, GERP++ and SiPhy) and other related information including allele frequencies observed in the 1000 Genomes Project phase 1 data and the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, various gene IDs from different databases, functional descriptions of genes, gene expression and gene interaction information, etc. Some dbNSFP contents (may not be up-to-date though) can also be accessed through variant tools, ANNOVAR, KGGSeq, UCSC Genome Browser''s Variant Annotation Integrator, Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor and HGMD.

http://swissregulon.unibas.ch/fcgi/sr/swissregulon
A database of genome-wide annotations of regulatory sites. The predictions are based on Bayesian probabilistic analysis of a combination of input information including: * Experimentally determined binding sites reported in the literature. * Known sequence-specificities of transcription factors. * ChIP-chip and ChIP-seq data. * Alignments of orthologous non-coding regions. Predictions were made using the PhyloGibbs, MotEvo, IRUS and ISMARA algorithms developed in their group, depending on the data available for each organism. Annotations can be viewed in a Gbrowse genome browser and can also be downloaded in flat file format.
