Microalgae have the potential to deliver biofuels without the associated competition for land resources. In order to realise the rates and titres necessary for commercial production, however, system-level metabolic engineering will be required. Genome scale metabolic reconstructions have revolutionized microbial metabolic engineering and are used routinely for in silico analysis and design. While genome scale metabolic reconstructions have been developed for many prokaryotes and model eukaryotes, the application to less well characterized eukaryotes such as algae is challenging not at least due to a lack of compartmentalization data.

TransportDB is a relational database describing the predicted cytoplasmic membrane transport protein complement for organisms whose complete genome sequence are available. For each organism, its complete membrane transport complement was identified, classified into protein families according to the TC classification system, and functional predictions are provided.For each organism, a summary page is available, overviewing the whole transporter system, including transporter types and individual transporter families. For individual transporter types, a detailed list of transporters with their possible substrates is shown with links to individual protein page which contains protein sequence and annotation information. You can also compare the transporter system from two or more different organisms. A search engine is set up for easy search in our transporter database for transporter type, family, individual proteins and their substrates. You can also blast search your protein sequence against our transporter database.With the rapid development of genomic sequencing both in TIGR and in other institutes, more and more genomes are available for the analysis of their transporter system. We will keep updating this site with the newly published genomes. If you have any suggestions, corrections, or comments on our site, please contact us. We are currently working on providing additional functionality for this database.
View all literature mentionsTHIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE documented on June 4, 2013. Aldente is a tool to identify proteins from peptide mass fingerprinting data. This fast and powerful tool takes advantage of the Hough transform for spectra recalibration and outlier exclusion. The Aldente search form can be used in two modes: for a global view of all the search parameters on one page: click on the section tab All. This global view is useful to have a quick overview before sending the query. to have search parameters grouped into smaller logical sections: click on the corresponding section tab in the tabs banner. Note! Moving from one section to another keeps search parameter selections. For your convenience, you may view / hide the help during your search parameters selection. Use the Help or No help section tab accordingly.
View all literature mentionsCOBrA is a Java-based ontology editor for bio-ontologies that distinguishes itself from other editors by supporting the linking of concepts between two ontologies, and providing sophisticated analysis and verification functions. In addition to the Gene Ontology and Open Biology Ontologies formats, COBrA can import and export ontologies in the Semantic Web formats RDF, RDFS and OWL. Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible
