Scansite searches for motifs within proteins that are likely to be phosphorylated by specific protein kinases or bind to domains such as SH2 domains, 14-3-3 domains or PDZ domains. The Motifscanner program utilizes an entropy approach that assesses the probability of a site matching the motif using the selectivity values and sums the logs of the probability values for each amino acid in the candidate sequence. The program then indicates the percentile ranking of the candidate motif in respect to all potential motifs in proteins of a protein database. When available, percentile scores of some confirmed phosphorylation sites for the kinase of interests or confirmed binding sites of the domain of interest are provided for comparison with the scores of the candidate motifs.

MiCroKit database is the first integrative resource to pin point most of identified components and related scientific information of midbody, centrosome and kinetochore. In this work, we have collected all proteins identified to be localized on kinetochore, centrosome, and/or midbody from two fungi (S. cerevisiae and S. pombe) and five animals, including C. elegans, D. melanogaster, X. laevis, M. musculus and H. sapiens. From the related literature of PubMed, numerous proteins have been manually curated to be localized on at least one of the sub-cellular localizations of kinetochore, centrosome and midbody. And to promise the quality of data, based on the rationale of Seeing is believing (Bloom K et al., 2005), these proteins have been unambiguously observed under fluorescent microscope as directly supportive evidences. Then an integrated and searchable database MiCroKit - Midbody, Centrosome and Kinetochore has been established. The version 1.0 of MiCroKit database was set up on Nov. 2nd, 2005, containing 1,065 unique proteins. The MiCroKit version 2.0 was released on Jun. 5th, 2006, with 1,120 entries. Currently, the MiCroKit 3.0 database was updated on July 9, 2009, containing 1,489 unique protein entries. The online service of MiCroKit 3.0 was implemented in PHP + MySQL + JavaScript. And the local packages of MiCroKit 3.0 were developed in JAVA 1.5 (J2SE). The database will be updated routinely as new microkit proteins are reported.

It is intended to provide information on the sequences and functions of transcripts which do not code for proteins, but perform regulatory roles in the cell. Currently, the database includes over 30,000 individual sequences from 99 species of Bacteria, Archaea and Eukaryota. The primary source of sequences included in the database was the GenBank. Additional annotation information for mouse and human ncRNAs was derived from FANTOM3 database and H-inviational Integrated Database of Annotated Human Genes version 3.4, respectively. Genome mapping information was derived from tha data available at the UCSC Genome Browser site. The sequences and annotations of small cytoplasmic RNAs from bacteria, for which annotation is lacking in the genome sequences, were derived from the Rfam database. The microRNAs or snoRNAs which were available in previous editions, as well as other housekeeping (infrastructural) RNAs (e.g. rRNA, tRNA, snRNA, SRP RNA) are not included in our database to avoid redundancy with more specialized databases which emerged in recent years.

Datasets and tools for comparative analysis and annotation of all publicly available genomes from three domains of life in a uniquely integrated context. Plasmids that are not part of a specific microbial genome sequencing project and phage genomes are also included in order to increase its genomic context for comparative analysis. The user interface (see User Interface Map) allows navigating the microbial genome data space along its three key dimensions (genes, genomes, and functions), and groups together the main comparative analysis tools. Microbial genome data analysis in IMG usually starts with the definition of an analysis context in terms of selected genomes, functional annotations, and/or genes, followed by the individual or comparative analysis of genomes, functional annotations, or genes.

An information resource for peptidases (also termed proteases, proteinases and proteolytic enzymes) and the proteins that inhibit them. The MEROPS database uses an hierarchical, structure-based classification of the peptidases. In this, each peptidase is assigned to a Family on the basis of statistically significant similarities in amino acid sequence, and families that are thought to be homologous are grouped together in a Clan. There is a Summary page for each family and clan, and these have indexes. Each of the Summary pages offers links to supplementary pages. About 3000 individual peptidases and inhibitors are included in the database, and there is a Summary page describing each one. You can navigate to this by any of several routes. There are indexes of Name, MEROPS Identifier and source Organism on the menu bar. Each Summary page describes the classification and nomenclature of the peptidase or inhibitor, and provides links to supplementary pages showing sequence identifiers, the structure if known, literature references and more.

A database of phylogenetic patterns of evolution between 46 different species. PhyloPat uses the latest release of EnsMart (release 52), and their one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many orthologies. First, we stored all of the Ensembl IDs within the 46 species, and the orthologies between them. Second, we determined the evolutionary order of the studied species using the NCBI Taxonomy database. The phylogenetic tree of these species can be viewed here. Third, we used this phylogenetic tree as a starting point for building our phylogenetic lineages. For each gene in the first species (S. cerevisiae), we looked for orthologs in the other species. All orthologs were added to the phylogenetic lineage, and in the next round were checked for orthologs themselves, until no more orthologies were found for any of the genes. This process was repeated for all genes in all species that were not connected to any phylogenetic lineage yet. The complete phylogenetic lineage determination generated 329,998 phylogenetic lineages, consisting of 973,821 genes. These lineages can be queried here by phylogenetic patterns, MySQL regular expressions or simply a list of Ensembl/EMBL/EntrezGene/HGNC IDs. Output can be given in HTML, Excel or plain text format.
