http://www.ebi.ac.uk/imgt/hla/

Database for sequences of the human major histocompatibility complex (HLA) and includes the official sequences for the WHO Nomenclature Committee For Factors of the HLA System. It currently contains 9,310 allele sequences (2013) along with detailed information concerning the material from which the sequence was derived and data on the validation of the sequences. It is established procedure for authors to submit the sequences directly to the IMGT/HLA Database for checking and assignment of an official name prior to publication, this avoids the problems associated with renaming published sequences and the confusion of multiple names for the same sequence. The need for reasonably rapid publication of new HLA allele sequences has necessitated an annual meeting of the WHO Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System. Additionally they now publish monthly HLA nomenclature updates both in journals and online to provide quick and easy access to new sequence information. The IMGT/HLA Database is part of the international ImMunoGeneTics project. In collaboration with the Imperial Cancer Research Fund (ICRF) and European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) they have developed an Oracle database to house the HLA sequences in such a way as to allow users to present complex queries about the sequence, sequence features, references, contacts and allele designations to the database via a graphical user interface over the web. The IMGT/HLA Database Submission Tool allows direct submission of sequences to the WHO HLA Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System. The IMGT/HLA Database provides an FTP site for the retrieval of sequences in a number of pre-formatted files.

Database that collects and provides all known physical microbial interactions. Currently, 24,295 experimentally determined interactions among proteins of 250 bacterial species/strains can be browsed and downloaded. These microbial interactions have been manually curated from the literature or imported from other databases (IntAct, DIP, BIND, MINT) and are linked to 26,578 experimental evidences (PubMed ID, PSI-MI methods). In contrast to these databases, interactions in MPIDB are further supported by 68,346 additional evidences based on interaction conservation, co-purification, and 3D domain contacts (iPfam, 3did). (spoke/matrix) binary interactions inferred from pull-down experiments are not included.

Database providing access to information about transmembrane proteins that exist under different conformations, with three primary subfamilies: the cys-loop superfamily, the ATP gated channels superfamily, and the glutamate activated cationic channels superfamily. Due to the lack of evolutionary relationship, these three superfamilies are treated separately. It currently contains 554 entries of ligand-activated ion channel subunits. In this database one may find: the nucleic and proteic sequences of the subunits. Multiple sequence alignments can be generated, and some phylogenetic studies of the superfamilies are provided. Additionally, the atomic coordinates of subunits, or portion of subunits, are provided when available. Redundancy is kept to a minimum, i.e. one entry per gene. Each entry in the database has been manually constructed and checked by a researcher of the field in order to reduce the inaccuracies to a minimum. NOTE: This database is not actively maintained anymore. People should not consider it as an up-to-date trustable resource. For any new work, they should consider using alternative sources, such as UniProt, Ensembl, Protein Databank etc.
