iRefWeb is an interface to a relational database containing the latest build of the interaction Reference Index (iRefIndex) which integrates protein interaction data from nine different interaction databases: BioGRID, BIND, CORUM, DIP, HPRD, INTACT, MINT, MPPI, MPACT and OPHID. Integration is achieved through a rigorously documented procedure for mapping protein IDs across databases, enabling systematic backtracking of the links used to establish the identity of the interaction partners. The iRefWeb interface groups interaction records from the different databases into a single non-redundant view. In particular iRefWeb facilitates comparing interaction records as seen by the various source databases relative to the PubMeds they were annotated from. iRefWeb is one of several views of the iRefIndex resource. Data are also available in a tab-delimited plain-text format (PSI-MITAB) as well as planned releases of a PSI-XML formatted version and a Cytoscape plugin. Further details about the iRefIndex project as well as data downloads are available from here . The method used to build iRefIndex is described in a recent publication.

Established in 1984, the Institute of Microbial Technology (IMTECH) is one amongst the 38 national laboratories of the Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR) and is its youngest laboratory. Set-up to be a fore-runner in the area of Biotechnology, the Institute occupies an area of about 47 acres, of which the labs cover 22 acres and the residential campus, 25 acres. The Institute has a built up area of about 3.60 lakh sq. ft., is spread over five main buildings, the main R&D block (~2.00 lakhs sq. ft.), Fermentation block (~0.50 lakhs sq. Ft.), Animal House (~0.30 lakhs sq. ft.), Workshop, Stores and Services area (~0.50 lakhs sq. ft.), and Cafeteria (~0.10 lakhs sq. ft.). The Institute''s primary asset is a team of 50 highly motivated young scientists, more than two thirds of whom are Ph.D.s with many having several years of training in world-renowned laboratories. Supported by more than 300 well-trained technicians and graduate students, these scientists are engaged in basic and application-oriented research.

The aim of the repairGenes site is to be a source of information about DNA repair genes and a useful resource for research on DNA repair. At the moment, the site contains information about a number of DNA repair genes from a set of selected species. The information is organized by organism and by biological process term as defined by the Gene Ontology (GO) project. The coverage of DNA repair genes is not complete, but hopefully it satisfies to demonstrate the concept and generate ideas for future versions of the system. At present, the raw data about DNA repair genes is extracted from the SWISS-PROT database, and categorized using the GO system. SWISS-PROT entries are being annotated by the Gene Ontology Annotation project at EBI. GOA is an ongoing project which will become more complete with time. As more data is released, this will be fed into repairGenes to keep it up-to-date. In future versions, the user will be able to search freely among organisms and categories of repair genes, enabling easy comparisons between species. For a taste of this, please have a look at the overview of repair genes from five major organisms. The amount of information in the system will be increased and the quality will be improved in the future. So will the features of the system.

Catacomb consists of a set of frameworks for various types of models in neuroscience, user interfaces to facilitate building models within these frameworks, and numerical algorithms to compute their behavior. The available frameworks include reaction kinetics, reaction diffusion systems, kinetic scheme models of ion channels, small neuron models and integrate and fire networks. It is a library of models (data structures and algorithms) covering a range of problems in neuroscience together with a versatile graphical user interface for constructing and running specific instances of the models. Some features of Catacomb include: * Class models. There is a growing set of classes containing data structures and calculation methods for various problem domains in neuroscience - reaction schemes, stochastic channel models, integrate-and-fire networks, cell geometry et al. * Dynamic interface builder. Using Java''s reflection capabilities, individual user interfaces are constructed for each class model allowing new instances to be created and displaying the results of any calculation methods they may contain. * Parameter watching. Using Java threads, the calculations are rerun and results displayed whenever parameters upon which they depend are changed. * Session recording. Operations can be recorded and played back for illustrating how to use Catacomb or for preconfigured demonstrations of model behavior. * Compatible with JPython. Catacomb does not include its own interpreter except in the minimal sense required to parse its own saved files. But its objects and methods are accessible to JPython which can be used for command line access or scripting. * Applet building. The contents of windows in the display can be extracted and packaged together in a single panel for loading as an applet. The model is saved as a java source file which, once compiled, can be packaged with the original Catacomb archive for loading from a Web page. See the AppletConfigEditor.
