Core repository and one of the world's most unique and important collections of scientific samples from the deep sea. Sediment cores from every major ocean and sea are archived at the Core Repository. The collection contains approximately 72,000 meters of core composed of 9,700 piston cores; 7,000 trigger weight cores; and 2,000 other cores such as box, kasten, and large diameter gravity cores. They also hold 4,000 dredge and grab samples, including a large collection of manganese nodules, many of which were recovered by submersibles. Over 100,000 residues are stored and are available for sampling where core material is expended. In addition to physical samples, a database of the Lamont core collection has been maintained for nearly 50 years and contains information on the geographic location of each collection site, core length, mineralogy and paleontology, lithology, and structure, and more recently, the full text of megascopic descriptions. Samples from cores and dredges, as well as descriptions of cores and dredges (including digital images and other cruise information), are provided to scientific investigators upon request. Materials for educational purposes and museum displays may also be made available in limited quantities when requests are adequately justified. Various services and data analyses, including core archiving, carbonate analyses, grain size analyses, and RGB line scan imaging, GRAPE, P-wave velocity and magnetic susceptibility runs, can also be provided at cost. The Repository operates a number of labs and instruments dedicated to making fundamental measurements on material entering the repository including several non-destructive methods. Instruments for conducting and/or assisting with analyses of deep-sea sediments include a GeoTek Multi-Sensor Core Logger, a UIC coulometer, a Micromeritics sedigraph, Vane Shear, X-radiograph, Sonic Sifter, freeze dryer, as well as a variety of microscopes, sieves, and sampling tools. They also make these instruments available to the scientific community for conducting analyses of deep-sea sediments. If you are interested in borrowing any field equipment, please contact the Repository Curator.

A database of protein subcellular localization containing proteins from primary protein database SWISS-PROT and PIR. By collecting the subcellular localization annotation, these information are classified and categorized by cross references to taxonomies and Gene Ontology database. Annotations were taken from primary protein databases, model organism genome projects and literature texts, and then were analyzed to dig out the subcellular localization features of the proteins. The proteins are also classified into different categories. Based on sequence alignment, nonredundant subsets of the database have been built, which may provide useful information for subcellular localization prediction. The database now contains >60 000 protein sequences including 30 000 protein sequences in the nonredundant data sets. Online download, SOAP server, Blast tools and prediction services are also available.

A database of protein families, each represented by multiple sequence alignments and hidden Markov models (HMMs). Users can analyze protein sequences for Pfam matches, view Pfam family annotation and alignments, see groups of related families, look at the domain organization of a protein sequence, find the domains on a PDB structure, and query Pfam by keywords. There are two components to Pfam: Pfam-A and Pfam-B. Pfam-A entries are high quality, manually curated families that may automatically generate a supplement using the ADDA database. These automatically generated entries are called Pfam-B. Although of lower quality, Pfam-B families can be useful for identifying functionally conserved regions when no Pfam-A entries are found. Pfam also generates higher-level groupings of related families, known as clans (collections of Pfam-A entries which are related by similarity of sequence, structure or profile-HMM).

IDEAL, Intrinsically Disordered proteins with Extensive Annotations and Literature, is a collection of knowledge on experimentally verified intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) or intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs). IDEAL contains manually curated annotations on IDPs in locations, structures, and functional sites such as protein binding regions and posttranslational modification sites together with references and structural domain assignments. Protean segment One of the unique phenomena seen in IDPs is so-called the coupled folding and binding, where a short flexible segment can bind to its binding partner with forming a specific structure to act as a molecular recognition element. IDEAL explicitly annotates these regions as protean segment (ProS) when unstructured and structured information are both available in the region. Access to the data All the entries are tabulated in the list and individual entries can be retrieved by using the search tool at the upper-right corner in this page. IDEAL also provides the BLAST search, which can find homologs in IDEAL. All the information in IDEAL can be downloaded in the XML file.
