The European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) toolbox area provides a comprehensive range of tools for the field of bioinformatics. These are subdivided into categories in the left menu for convenience. EBI has developed a large number of very useful bioinformatics tools. A few examples include: - Similarity & Homology - the BLAST or FASTA programs can be used to look for sequence similarity and infer homology. - Protein Functional Analysis - InterProScan can be used to search for motifs in your protein sequence. - Proteomic Services NEW - UniProt DAS server allows researchers to show their research results in the context of UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot annotation. - Sequence Analysis - ClustalW2 a sequence alignment tool. - Structural Analysis - MSDfold can be used to query your protein structure and compare it to those in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). - Web Services - provide programmatic access to the various databases and retrieval/analysis services EBI provides. - Tools Miscellaneous - Expression Profiler a set of tools for clustering, analysis and visualization of gene expression and other genomic data. Sponsors: This resource is sponsored by EBI.

http://xgc.nci.nih.gov/

NIH initiative to support production of cDNA libraries, clones and 5'/3' sequences and to provide set of full-length (open reading frame) sequences and cDNA clones of expressed genes for Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. Clones distribution is outsourced to for profit companies. Project concluded in September 2008. Resources generated by XGC are publicly accessible to biomedical research community. All sequences are deposited into GenBank.Corresponding clones are available through IMAGE clone distribution network. With conclusion of XGC project, GenBank records of XGC sequences will be frozen, without further updates. Since knowledge of what constitutes full-length coding region for some of genes and transcripts for which we have XGC clones will likely change in future, users planning to order XGC clones will need to monitor for these changes. Users can make use of genome browsers and gene-specific databases, such as UCSC Genome browser, NCBI's Map Viewer, and Entrez Gene, to view relevant regions of genome (browsers) or gene-related information (Entrez Gene).

http://www.bioinformatics.org/peakanalyzer/wiki/

A set of standalone software programs for the automated processing of any genomic loci, with an emphasis on datasets consisting of ChIP-derived signal peaks. The software is able to identify individual binding / modification sites from enrichment loci, retrieve peak region sequences for motif discovery, and integrate experimental data with different classes of annotated elements throughout the genome. PeakAnalyzer requires a peak file and a feature annotation file in BED or GTF format. Complete annotation files for the current builds of the human (HG19) and mouse (MM9) genomes are provided with the software distribution.

http://sfld.rbvi.ucsf.edu/

A database of hierarchical classification of enzymes that relates specific sequence-structure features to specific chemical capabilities. The SFLD classifies evolutionarily related enzymes according to shared chemical functions and maps these shared functions to conserved active site features. The classification is hierarchical, where broader levels encompass more distantly related proteins with fewer shared features. It thus serves as the analysis and archive site for superfamilies targeted by the Enzyme Function Initiative, and is developed by the Babbitt Laboratory in collaboration with the UCSF Resource for Biocomputing, Visualization, and Informatics. The resource also provides a collection of tools and data for investigating sequence-structure-function relationships and hypothesizing function.

http://gmod.org/wiki/Main_Page

A collection of open source software tools for creating and managing genome-scale biological databases. GMOD is made up databases, applications, and adaptor software that connects these components together. You can use it to create a small laboratory database of genome annotations, or a large web-accessible community database. At first GMOD just featured model organisms but now any organism with any kind of sequence associated with it is a good candidate as a subject for a GMOD database. There are GMOD databases with just protein sequence in them, with EST sequence only, those that are concerned primarily with gene expression, and even those dedicated to collections of RNA sequence. They have also heard of GMOD databases for oligonucleotides and plasmids.

http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastx&BLAST_PROGRAMS=blastx&PAGE_TYPE=BlastSearch&SHOW_DEFAULTS=on&LINK_LOC=blasthome

Web application to search protein databases using a translated nucleotide query. Translated BLAST services are useful when trying to find homologous proteins to a nucleotide coding region. Blastx compares translational products of the nucleotide query sequence to a protein database. Because blastx translates the query sequence in all six reading frames and provides combined significance statistics for hits to different frames, it is particularly useful when the reading frame of the query sequence is unknown or it contains errors that may lead to frame shifts or other coding errors. Thus blastx is often the first analysis performed with a newly determined nucleotide sequence and is used extensively in analyzing EST sequences. This search is more sensitive than nucleotide blast since the comparison is performed at the protein level.

http://www.aspergillus-genomes.org.uk/

A resource for viewing annotated genes arising from various Aspergillus sequencing and annotation projects, resulting from the merging of Central Aspergillus Data REpository (CADRE) and The Aspergillus Website, which took place in June 2008. The principal role of CADRE is to aid the Aspergillus research community by managing Aspergillus genome data and by providing visualization tools, ranging from relatively simple annotation displays to more complex data integration displays. In contrast, The Aspergillus Website provides a range of information to the medical community (i.e., clinicians, patients and scientists) regarding the genus Aspergillus and the diseases, such as Aspergillosis, that it can cause. CADRE has been implemented using the Ensembl v22 suite. This suite comprises: * a database schema, which has been devised for storing annotated eukaryotic genomes. The schema is implemented with the MySQL relational database management system. * several specialized programming modules for building interfaces (i.e., BioPerl and Ensembl API modules). * a series of programs (i.e., Perl CGI scripts using the API modules) for viewing genomic data within a web browser., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.
