The pathology and imaging section includes anatomy, histology, comparative imaging, physiology, pathology, comparative mammary, comparative prostate, GEM, and an image archive. These pages were put together as a pilot demonstration by Dr. Robert Cardiff, UCD Center for Comparative Medicine with the collaboration of Dr. Michael Paulus, Oak Ridge National Laboratories,MicroCat Group, Dr. Allan Johnson, Duke University Center for In Vivo Microscopy, and Drs. Steve Griffey, Gary Henderson and Tom Jue, University of California, Davis. This is a work in progress and for demonstration purposes.
A tool that can predict the possible oligosaccharide structures that occur on proteins from their experimentally determined masses. This is done by comparing the mass of the glycan to a list of pre-computed masses of glycan compositions. The program can be used with free or derivatised glycans and for glycopeptides where the peptide mass or protein is known. Compositional constraints can be applied to the output. Note: You can use GlycanMass to calculate the mass of an oligosaccharide structure from its oligosaccharide composition.
Structured vocabulary to organize cell-associated data and to place these data in clearly defined semantic relations to other biological facts. It describes cell types, their properties and origin and links this information to other existing ontologies like the Cell Ontology (CL), Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA), Gene Ontology (GO), Mouse Anatomy and others using the top-level ontology BioTop.
Server that produces neural network predictions for GlcNAc O-glycosylation sites in Dictyostelium discoideum proteins.
Prediction tool locating potential GPI-modification sites in precursor sequences applied for large-scale protein sequence database searches. The composite prediction function (with separate parametrization for metazoan and protozoan proteins) consists of terms evaluating both amino acid type preferences at sequence positions near a supposed omega-site as well as the concordance with general physical properties encoded in multi-residue correlation within the motif sequence. The latter terms are especially successful in rejecting non-appropriate sequences from consideration. The algorithm has been validated with a self-consistency and two jack-knife tests for the learning set of fully annotated sequences from the SWISS-PROT database as well as with a newly created database big-Pi (more than 300 GPI-motif mutations extracted from original literature sources). The accuracy of predicting the effect of mutations in the GPI sequence motif was above 83 %.

Notice: This domain name expired on 10/29/11 and is pending renewal or deletion PD-DOC is a portal and a database resource, hosting a database and linking to other databases and data sets of clinical and translational data. PD-DOC functions to organize and facilitate clinical and translational research in Parkinson's disease. The PD-DOC Database contains standardized data collected by user institutions on large numbers of patients with Parkinsons disease and other parkinsonian disorders. In some cases, data is obtained at a single point in time, while in others data is collected repeatedly over time. The PD-DOC Database is composed of the Core Data Set (CDS) which consists of those variables required to be gathered for each subject whose data is entered into the PD-DOC database. In 2005, working groups of Udall Center and invited experts deliberated to establish the components of each CDS section (e.g. General Clinical, Cognitive/Behavioral, Postmortem Brain Neuropathological Findings). The PD-DOC CDS was established and designed to optimize data analyses and data mining for large numbers of subjects participating in a variety of research studies. In most cases corresponding DNA samples are available form the NINDS Human Genetic Repository (at Coriell). Much of the website is publicly available for viewing. To request access to sections of the website dealing with downloading or requesting data, requesting a consultation, or submitting data or other information you will need to register. Before registering, you should read the PD-DOC Policies. Note that PD-DOC data can be used for research purposes only. Once your registration is successfully completed you will be automatically logged into the website.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on December 12,2025. Multimodal dataset for emotion analysis using EEG, Physiological and Video Signals of human affective states. The electroencephalogram (EEG) and peripheral physiological signals of 32 participants were recorded as each watched 40 one-minute long excerpts of music videos. Participants rated each video in terms of the levels of arousal, valence, like/dislike, dominance and familiarity. For 22 of the 32 participants, frontal face video was also recorded. A novel method for stimuli selection was used, utilizing retrieval by affective tags from the last.fm website, video highlight detection and an online assessment tool. The dataset is made publicly available and other researchers are encouraged to use it for testing their own affective state estimation methods.
