http://edwardslab.bmcb.georgetown.edu/downloads/

The Peptide Sequence Database contains putative peptide sequences from human, mouse, rat, and zebrafish. Compressed to eliminate redundancy, these are about 40 fold smaller than a brute force enumeration. Current and old releases are available for download. Each species'' peptide sequence database comprises peptide sequence data from releveant species specific UniGene and IPI clusters, plus all sequences from their consituent EST, mRNA and protein sequence databases, namely RefSeq proteins and mRNAs, UniProt''s SwissProt and TrEMBL, GenBank mRNA, ESTs, and high-throughput cDNAs, HInv-DB, VEGA, EMBL, IPI protein sequences, plus the enumeration of all combinations of UniProt sequence variants, Met loss PTM, and signal peptide cleavages. The README file contains some information about the non amino-acid symbols O (digest site corresponding to a protein N- or C-terminus) and J (no digest sequence join) used in these peptide sequence databases and information about how to configure various search engines to use them. Some search engines handle (very) long sequences badly and in some cases must be patched to use these peptide sequence databases. All search engines supported by the PepArML meta-search engine can (or can be patched to) successfully search these peptide sequence databases.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVCE, documented September 2, 2016. Indel Flanking Region Database is an online resource for indels and the flanking regions of proteins in SCOP superfamilies, including amino acid sequences, lengths, locations, secondary structure constitutions, hydrophilicity / hydrophobicity, domain information, 3D structures and so on. It aims at providing a comprehensive dataset for analyzing the qualities of amino acid insertion/deletions(indels), substitutions and the relationship between them. The indels were obtained through the pairwise alignment of homologous structures in SCOP superfamilies. The IndelFR database contains 2,925,017 indels with flanking regions extracted from 373,402 structural alignment pairs of 12,573 non-redundant domains from 1053 superfamilies. IndelFR has already been used for molecular evolution studies and may help to promote future functional studies of indels and their flanking regions.

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/databases/FunTree/

FunTree provides a range of data resources to detect the evolution of enzyme function within distant structurally related clusters within domain super families as determined by CATH. To access the resource enter a specific CATH superfamily code or search for a structure / sequence / function (either via a EC code or KEGG ligand / reaction ID, PDB ID or UniProtKB ID). Or browse the resource via superfamily / function / structure / metabolites & reactions via the menu on the left panel. FunTree is a new resource that brings together sequence, structure, phylogenetic, chemical and mechanistic information for structurally defined enzyme superfamilies. Gathering together this range of data into a single resource allows the investigation of how novel enzyme functions have evolved within a structurally defined superfamily as well as providing a means to analyse trends across many superfamilies. This is done not only within the context of an enzyme''''s sequence and structure but also the relationships of their reactions. Developed in tandem with the CATH database, it currently comprises 276 superfamilies covering 1800 (70%) of sequence assigned enzyme reactions. Central to the resource are phylogenetic trees generated from structurally informed multiple sequence alignments using both domain structural alignments supplemented with domain sequences and whole sequence alignments based on commonality of multi-domain architectures. These trees are decorated with functional annotations such as metabolite similarity as well as annotations from manually curated resources such the catalytic site atlas and MACiE for enzyme mechanisms.

http://www.hpppi.iicb.res.in/btox/

Database of Bacterial ExoToxins for Human is a database of sequences, structures, interaction networks and analytical results for 229 exotoxins, from 26 different human pathogenic bacterial genus. All toxins are classified into 24 different Toxin classes. The aim of DBETH is to provide a comprehensive database for human pathogenic bacterial exotoxins. DBETH also provides a platform to its users to identify potential exotoxin like sequences through Homology based as well as Non-homology based methods. In homology based approach the users can identify potential exotoxin like sequences either running BLASTp against the toxin sequences or by running HMMER against toxin domains identified by DBETH from human pathogenic bacterial exotoxins. In Non-homology based part DBETH uses a machine learning approach to identify potential exotoxins (Toxin Prediction by Support Vector Machine based approach).

http://www.kabatdatabase.com/

The Kabat Database determines the combining site of antibodies based on the available amino acid sequences. The precise delineation of complementarity determining regions (CDR) of both light and heavy chains provides the first example of how properly aligned sequences can be used to derive structural and functional information of biological macromolecules. The Kabat database now includes nucleotide sequences, sequences of T cell receptors for antigens (TCR), major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules, and other proteins of immunological interest. The Kabat Database searching and analysis tools package is an ASP.NET web-based portal containing lookup tools, sequence matching tools, alignment tools, length distribution tools, positional correlation tools and much more. The searching and analysis tools are custom made for the aligned data sets contained in both the SQL Server and ASCII text flat file formats. The searching and analysis tools may be run on a single PC workstation or in a distributed environment. The analysis tools are written in ASP.NET and C# and are available in Visual Studio .NET 2003/2005/2008 formats. The Kabat Database was initially started in 1970 to determine the combining site of antibodies based on the available amino acid sequences at that time. Bence Jones proteins, mostly from human, were aligned, using the now-known Kabat numbering system, and a quantitative measure, variability, was calculated for every position. Three peaks, at positions 24-34, 50-56 and 89-97, were identified and proposed to form the complementarity determining regions (CDR) of light chains. Subsequently, antibody heavy chain amino acid sequences were also aligned using a different numbering system, since the locations of their CDRs (31-35B, 50-65 and 95-102) are different from those of the light chains. CDRL1 starts right after the first invariant Cys 23 of light chains, while CDRH1 is eight amino acid residues away from the first invariant Cys 22 of heavy chains. During the past 30 years, the Kabat database has grown to include nucleotide sequences, sequences of T cell receptors for antigens (TCR), major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules and other proteins of immunological interest. It has been used extensively by immunologists to derive useful structural and functional information from the primary sequences of these proteins.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/bioinformatics/NON-RED/index.html

A web tool to select biological sequences from a given set, with similarity / homology less than a user-defined level. This web-based application takes as input a set of N sequences and outputs a set of sequences of user-determined redundancy. Initially, the algorithm runs an all-against-all BLAST alignment on the input data set and creates an NxN matrix of pairwise distances defined by the similarity percentages. In the next step, the algorithm removes the sequence with the largest number of neighbors, causing that sequence not to be counted as a neighbor of any other sequence during the next iterations. It then reassesses the number of neighbors of each sequence and repeats the previous step until the sequences left over have no more neighbors. The user can specify the similarity (%) threshold and the minimum coverage length of the alignments. Sequences with a similarity below the threshold or a smaller coverage than the minimum length are not considered to be neighbors.
