PhenoGO is a computed database designed for high throughput mining that provides phenotypic and experimental context - such as the cell type, disease, tissue, and organ - to existing annotations between gene products and Gene Ontology (GO) terms, as specified in the Gene Ontology Annotations (GOA) for multiple model organisms. Phenotypic and Experimental (P&E) contexts to identifiers are computationally mapped to general biological ontologies, including: the Cell Ontology (CO), phenotypes from the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS), species from Taxonomy of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) taxonomy, and specialized ontologies such as Mammalian Phenotype Ontology (MP) and Mouse Anatomy (MA).

A brain bank which provides brain tissue for interdisciplinary research in neurochemical, anatomical, epidemiological and clinical aspects of Alzheimer's disease. It provides brain tissue from Alzheimer's patients and healthy elderly brain donors to investigators who are helping further the understanding of Alzheimer's disease through research. It also gives family members of Alzheimer's patients the opportunity to obtain a confirmed diagnosis through brain autopsy. Through this program, families of individuals with either a clinical diagnosis, or those with suspected Alzheimer's disease, grant permission for a brain autopsy to be performed immediately after death.

Database to catalog experimentally determined interactions between proteins combining information from a variety of sources to create a single, consistent set of protein-protein interactions that can be downloaded in a variety of formats. The data were curated, both, manually and also automatically using computational approaches that utilize the the knowledge about the protein-protein interaction networks extracted from the most reliable, core subset of the DIP data. Because the reliability of experimental evidence varies widely, methods of quality assessment have been developed and utilized to identify the most reliable subset of the interactions. This CORE set can be used as a reference when evaluating the reliability of high-throughput protein-protein interaction data sets, for development of prediction methods, as well as in the studies of the properties of protein interaction networks. Tools are available to analyze, visualize and integrate user's own experimental data with the information about protein-protein interactions available in the DIP database. The DIP database lists protein pairs that are known to interact with each other. By interact they mean that two amino acid chains were experimentally identified to bind to each other. The database lists such pairs to aid those studying a particular protein-protein interaction but also those investigating entire regulatory and signaling pathways as well as those studying the organization and complexity of the protein interaction network at the cellular level. Registration is required to gain access to most of the DIP features. Registration is free to the members of the academic community. Trial accounts for the commercial users are also available.

Database of three-dimensional structures of macromolecules that allows the user to retrieve structures for specific molecule types as well as structures for genes and proteins of interest. Three main databases comprise Structure-The Molecular Modeling Database; Conserved Domains and Protein Classification; and the BioSystems Database. Structure also links to the PubChem databases to connect biological activity data to the macromolecular structures. Users can locate structural templates for proteins and interactively view structures and sequence data to closely examine sequence-structure relationships. * Macromolecular structures: The three-dimensional structures of biomolecules provide a wealth of information on their biological function and evolutionary relationships. The Molecular Modeling Database (MMDB), as part of the Entrez system, facilitates access to structure data by connecting them with associated literature, protein and nucleic acid sequences, chemicals, biomolecular interactions, and more. It is possible, for example, to find 3D structures for homologs of a protein of interest by following the Related Structure link in an Entrez Protein sequence record. * Conserved domains and protein classification: Conserved domains are functional units within a protein that act as building blocks in molecular evolution and recombine in various arrangements to make proteins with different functions. The Conserved Domain Database (CDD) brings together several collections of multiple sequence alignments representing conserved domains, in addition to NCBI-curated domains that use 3D-structure information explicitly to define domain boundaries and provide insights into sequence/structure/function relationships. * Small molecules and their biological activity: The PubChem project provides information on the biological activities of small molecules and is a component of NIH''''s Molecular Libraries Roadmap Initiative. PubChem includes three databases: PCSubstance, PCBioAssay, and PCCompound. The PubChem data are linked to other data types (illustrated example) in the Entrez system, making it possible, for example, to retrieve information about a compound and then Link to its biological activity data, retrieve 3D protein structures bound to the compound and interactively view their active sites, and find biosystems that include the compound as a component. * Biological Systems: A biosystem, or biological system, is a group of molecules that interact directly or indirectly, where the grouping is relevant to the characterization of living matter. The NCBI BioSystems Database provides centralized access to biological pathways from several source databases and connects the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system. BioSystem records list and categorize components (illustrated example), such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink icon FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on December 17, 2021. Database to store, annotate, view, analyze and share microarray data. It provides registered users access to their own data, provides users access to public data, and tools with which to analyze those data, to any public user anywhere in the world. The GenePattern software package has been incorporated directly into SMD, providing access to many new analysis tools, as well as a plug-in architecture that allows users to directly integrate and share additional tools through SMD. This extension is available with the SMD source code that is fully and freely available to others under an Open Source license, enabling other groups to create a local installation of SMD with an enriched data analysis capability. SMD search options allow the user to Search By Experiments, Search By Datasets, or Search By Gene Names. Web services are provided using common standards, such as Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). This enables both local and remote researchers to connect to an installation of the database and retrieve data using pre-defined methods, without needing to resort to use of a web browser.
