A web interface and associated tools for easy query of public human transcriptome data by keyword, through thematic pages with list annotations. Amazonia provides a thematic entry to public transcriptomes: users may for instance query a gene on a Stem Cells page, where they will see the expression of their favorite gene across selected microarray experiments related to stem cell biology. This selection of samples can be customized at will among the 6331 samples currently present in the database. Every transcriptome study results in the identification of lists of genes relevant to a given biological condition. In order to include this valuable information in any new query in the Amazonia database, they indicate for each gene in which lists it is included. This is a straightforward and efficient way to synthesize hundreds of microarray publications., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. A computer generated high quality dataset of human transcript-confirmed constitutive and alternative exons and introns. The alternative events have been delineated and annotated with various characterizations. AltExtron is the prototype database for the production version AltSplice. AltExtron is more geared towards investigating various aspects of the methodologies used, and focuses in general on the biology behind alternative splicing. The complete data used in this work is available for downloading in several flat files, containing human genes, introns, exons, isoform events, human-mouse comparisons, and additional information on GC-AG introns. Two versions of AltExtron data are available - one as prototype (for human) and another as latest build (for human, drosophila, mouse, and others) based on EMBL/GenBank (Feb 2003).

Web-based tool for identifying hot spots of aggregation in polypeptides. Aggrescan uses an aggregation-propensity scale for natural amino acids derived from in vivo experiments and on the assumption that short and specific sequence stretches modulate protein aggregation. The algorithm is shown to identify a series of protein fragments involved in the aggregation of disease-related proteins and to predict the effect of genetic mutations on their deposition propensities. It also provides new insights into the differential aggregation properties displayed by globular proteins, natively unfolded polypeptides, amyloidogenic proteins and proteins found in bacterial inclusion bodies.

A prediction algorithm based on the helix/coil transition theory. Agadir predicts the helical behaviour of monomeric peptides. It only considers short range interactions. Conditions such as pH, temperature and ionic strength are used in the calculation. Modifications of the termini are also allowed. To submit a job to Agadir, log in the calculation part using the login button in the right bottom. Then fill-in the input form and proceed to next page, etc. You will reach a final page that resumes all the input information and allows you to run the calculation. You can submit one or more peptide sequences in one-letter format. Sequences should be separated by one return character. Spaces and tabulations are automatically removed. Only standard amino acids are accepted. Agadir accepts two modifications at the N-terminus (acetylation or succynilation), and one at the C-terminus (amidation). Just choose the desired option in the input form. You can use only one set of parameters: temperature, ionic strength (calibrated for NaCl) and pH, or explore a particular range of conditions for one parameter. In the latter case the intervals between any two values are: Ionic strength 0.05 M Temperature 1 K pH 0.2 units When setting the conditions for these parameters please be aware that the allowed ranges are: Ionic strength between 0.001 and 1 M Temperature between 273 and 400 K pH between 1 and 14 Output of the prediction at the residue level is available only when submitting no more than ten peptide sequences, and without any screening of conditions. Hstaple is the Hydrophobic Staple motif, Schellman is the Shellman motif, CaH are the expecte chemical shifts of the Calpha proton, 13Ca are the alpha Carbon 13 chemical shifts, JaN is the Jalpha--nitrogen coupling.

The goal is to understand as completely as possible the relationships between sets of inputs and outputs in signaling cells that vary both temporally and spatially. The same goal, stated from a slightly different perspective, is to understand fully how cells interpret signals in a context-dependent manner. This will involve identification of all the proteins that comprise the various signaling systems, the assessment of time-dependent information flow through the systems in both normal and pathological states, and finally the reduction of the mass of detailed data into a set of interacting theoretical models that describe cellular signaling. Sponsors: The AfCS Project was conceived under the Glue Grant Initiative of the National Institute of General Medical Sciences. Support is received from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
