Database of Interacting Proteins (DIP) Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
Database of Interacting Proteins (DIP) (RRID:SCR_003167) | DIP | storage service resource, data or information resource, production service resource, analysis service resource, database, service resource, data analysis service, data repository | Database to catalog experimentally determined interactions between proteins combining information from a variety of sources to create a single, consistent set of protein-protein interactions that can be downloaded in a variety of formats. The data were curated, both, manually and also automatically using computational approaches that utilize the the knowledge about the protein-protein interaction networks extracted from the most reliable, core subset of the DIP data. Because the reliability of experimental evidence varies widely, methods of quality assessment have been developed and utilized to identify the most reliable subset of the interactions. This CORE set can be used as a reference when evaluating the reliability of high-throughput protein-protein interaction data sets, for development of prediction methods, as well as in the studies of the properties of protein interaction networks. Tools are available to analyze, visualize and integrate user's own experimental data with the information about protein-protein interactions available in the DIP database. The DIP database lists protein pairs that are known to interact with each other. By interact they mean that two amino acid chains were experimentally identified to bind to each other. The database lists such pairs to aid those studying a particular protein-protein interaction but also those investigating entire regulatory and signaling pathways as well as those studying the organization and complexity of the protein interaction network at the cellular level. Registration is required to gain access to most of the DIP features. Registration is free to the members of the academic community. Trial accounts for the commercial users are also available. | blast, cellular network, ligand-receptor complex, ligand, network, protein, protein interaction, protein ligand, protein-protein interaction, protein receptor, receptor, sequence, interaction, regulatory pathway, signaling pathway, protein binding, bio.tools, FASEB list |

PIRSF Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
PIRSF (RRID:SCR_003352) | PIRSF | data or information resource, narrative resource, standard specification, database | A SuperFamily classification system, with rules for functional site and protein name, to facilitate the sensible propagation and standardization of protein annotation and the systematic detection of annotation errors. The PIRSF concept is being used as a guiding principle to provide comprehensive and non-overlapping clustering of UniProtKB sequences into a hierarchical order to reflect their evolutionary relationships. The PIRSF classification system is based on whole proteins rather than on the component domains; therefore, it allows annotation of generic biochemical and specific biological functions, as well as classification of proteins without well-defined domains. There are different PIRSF classification levels. The primary level is the homeomorphic family, whose members are both homologous (evolved from a common ancestor) and homeomorphic (sharing full-length sequence similarity and a common domain architecture). At a lower level are the subfamilies which are clusters representing functional specialization and/or domain architecture variation within the family. Above the homeomorphic level there may be parent superfamilies that connect distantly related families and orphan proteins based on common domains. Because proteins can belong to more than one domain superfamily, the PIRSF structure is formally a network. The FTP site provides free download for PIRSF. | protein annotation, classification, protein, superfamily, functional site, protein name, bio.tools |

MouseNET Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
MouseNET (RRID:SCR_003357) | mouseNet | data or information resource, production service resource, analysis service resource, database, service resource, data analysis service | A functional network for laboratory mouse based on integration of diverse genetic and genomic data. It allows the users to accurately predict novel functional assignments and network components. MouseNET uses a probabilistic Bayesian algorithm to identify genes that are most likely to be in the same pathway/functional neighborhood as your genes of interest. It then displays biological network for the resulting genes as a graph. The nodes in the graph are genes (clicking on each node will bring up SGD page for that gene) and edges are interactions (clicking on each edge will show evidence used to predict this interaction). Most likely, the first results to load on the results page will be a list of significant Gene Ontology terms. This list is calculated for the genes in the biological network created by the mouseNET algorithm. If a gene ontology term appears on this list with a low p-value, it is statistically significantly overrepresented in this biological network. The graph may be explored further. As you move the mouse over genes in the network, interactions involving these genes are highlighted.If you click on any of the highlighted interactions graph, evidence pop-up window will appear. The Evidence pop-up lists all evidence for this interaction, with links to the papers that produced this evidence - clicking these links will bring up the relevant source citation(s) in PubMed. | gene, network, mouse, protein function, visualization, open reading frame, graph |
