http://www-ssrl.slac.stanford.edu/content/science/ssrl-smb-program

Biomedical technology research center that operates as a integrated center with three primary areas (or cores) of technological research and development and scientific focus: macromolecular crystallography (MC), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and small-angle X-ray scattering/diffraction (SAXS) . Central to the core technological developments in all three areas is the development and utilization of improved detectors and instrumentation, especially to be able to take maximum advantage of the high brightness of SSRL?s third-generation synchrotron X-ray storage ring (SPEAR3). A primary focus is the use of enhanced computing and data management tools to provide more user-friendly, real-time and on-line instrumentation control, including full remote access for crystallography, data reduction and analysis.

http://www.sbgn.org/Main_Page

The Systems Biology Graphical Notation (SBGN) project aims to develop high quality, standard graphical languages for representing biological processes and interactions. Each SBGN language is based on the consensus of the broad international SBGN community of biologists, curators and software developers. Over the course of its development many individuals, organizations and companies made invaluable contributions to the SBGN through participating in discussions and meetings, providing feedback on the documentation and worked examples, adopting the standard and spreading the word. Circuit diagrams and Unified Modeling Language diagrams are just two examples of standard visual languages that help accelerate work by promoting regularity, removing ambiguity and enabling software tool support for communication of complex information. Ironically, despite having one of the highest ratios of graphical to textual information, biology still lacks standard graphical notations. The recent deluge of biological knowledge makes addressing this deficit a pressing concern. Toward this goal, we present the Systems Biology Graphical Notation (SBGN), a visual language developed by a community of biochemists, modelers and computer scientists. SBGN consists of three complementary languages: process diagram, entity relationship diagram and activity flow diagram. Together they enable scientists to represent networks of biochemical interactions in a standard, unambiguous way. We believe that SBGN will foster efficient and accurate representation, visualization, storage, exchange and reuse of information on all kinds of biological knowledge, from gene regulation, to metabolism, to cellular signaling. A list of software packages known to provide (or have started to develop) support for SBGN notations is available.

http://www.proconsortium.org/pro/

An ontological representation of protein-related entities by explicitly defining them and showing the relationships between them. Each PRO term represents a distinct class of entities (including specific modified forms, orthologous isoforms, and protein complexes) ranging from the taxon-neutral to the taxon-specific. The ontology has a meta-structure encompassing three areas: proteins based on evolutionary relatedness (ProEvo); protein forms produced from a given gene locus (ProForm); and protein-containing complexes (ProComp). NOTICE: The PRO ID format has changed from PRO: to PR: (e.g. PRO:000000563 is now PR:000000563).

A set of controlled, relational vocabularies of terms commonly used in Systems Biology, and in particular in computational modeling. The ontology consists of seven orthogonal vocabularies defining: the roles of reaction participants (eg. substrate), quantitative parameters (eg. Michaelis constant), a precise classification of mathematical expressions that describe the system (eg. mass action rate law), the modeling framework used (eg. logical framework), and a branch each to describe entity (eg. macromolecule) and interaction (eg. process) types, and a branch to define the different types of metadata that may be present within a model. SBO terms can be used to introduce a layer of semantic information into the standard description of a model, or to annotate the results of biochemical experiments in order to facilitate their efficient reuse. SBO is an Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) candidate ontology, and is free for use. A programmatic access to the content of the Systems Biology Ontology is provided by Web Services.
