http://zebrafinch.brainarchitecture.org/

Atlas of high resolution Nissl stained digital images of the brain of the zebra finch, the mainstay of songbird research. The cytoarchitectural high resolution photographs and atlas presented here aim at facilitating electrode placement, connectional studies, and cytoarchitectonic analysis. This initial atlas is not in stereotaxic coordinate space. It is intended to complement the stereotaxic atlases of Akutegawa and Konishi, and that of Nixdorf and Bischof. (Akutagawa E. and Konishi M., stereotaxic atalas of the brain of zebra finch, unpublished. and Nixdorf-Bergweiler B. E. and Bischof H. J., A Stereotaxic Atlas of the Brain Of the Zebra Finch, Taeniopygia Guttata, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.) The zebra finch has proven to be the most widely used model organism for the study of the neurological and behavioral development of birdsong. A unique strength of this research area is its integrative nature, encompassing field studies and ethologically grounded behavioral biology, as well as neurophysiological and molecular levels of analysis. The availability of dimensionally accurate and detailed atlases and photographs of the brain of male and female animals, as well as of the brain during development, can be expected to play an important role in this research program. Traditionally, atlases for the zebra finch brain have only been available in printed format, with the limitation of low image resolution of the cell stained sections. The advantages of a digital atlas over a traditional paper-based atlas are three-fold. * The digital atlas can be viewed at multiple resolutions. At low magnification, it provides an overview of brain sections and regions, while at higher magnification, it shows exquisite details of the cytoarchitectural structure. * It allows digital re-slicing of the brain. The original photographs of brain were taken in certain selected planes of section. However, the brains are seldom sliced in exactly the same plane in real experiments. Re-slicing provides a useful atlas in user-chosen planes, which are otherwise unavailable in the paper-based version. * It can be made available on the internet. High resolution histological datasets can be independently evaluated in light of new experimental anatomical, physiological and molecular studies.

http://www.lipidmaps.org/data/structure/

Collection of structures and annotations of biologically relevant lipids that contains unique lipid structures. Structures of lipids from : LIPID MAPS Consortium's core laboratories and partners; lipids identified by LIPID MAPS experiments; biologically relevant lipids manually curated from LIPID BANK, LIPIDAT, Lipid Library, Cyberlipids, ChEBI and other public sources; novel lipids submitted to peer-reviewed journals; and computationally generated structures for appropriate classes. All the lipid structures adhere to the structure drawing rules proposed by the LIPID MAPS consortium. A number of structure viewing options are offered: gif image (default), Chemdraw (requires Chemdraw ActiveX/Plugin), MarvinView (Java applet) and JMol (Java applet). All lipids have been classified using the LIPID MAPS Lipid Classification System. Each lipid structure has been assigned a LIPID MAPS ID (LM_ID) which reflects its position in the classification hierarchy. In addition to a classification-based retrieval of lipids, users can search using either text-based or structure-based search options.

http://www.phenologs.org/

Database for identifying orthologous phenotypes (phenologs). Mapping between genotype and phenotype is often non-obvious, complicating prediction of genes underlying specific phenotypes. This problem can be addressed through comparative analyses of phenotypes. We define phenologs based upon overlapping sets of orthologous genes associated with each phenotype. Comparisons of >189,000 human, mouse, yeast, and worm gene-phenotype associations reveal many significant phenologs, including novel non-obvious human disease models. For example, phenologs suggest a yeast model for mammalian angiogenesis defects and an invertebrate model for vertebrate neural tube birth defects. Phenologs thus create a rich framework for comparing mutational phenotypes, identify adaptive reuse of gene systems, and suggest new disease genes. To search for phenologs, go to the basic search page and enter a list of genes in the box provided, using Entrez gene identifiers for mouse/human genes, locus ids for yeast (e.g., YHR200W), or sequence names for worm (e.g., B0205.3). It is expected that this list of genes will all be associated with a particular system, trait, mutational phenotype, or disease. The search will return all identified model organism/human mutational phenotypes that show any overlap with the input set of the genes, ranked according to their hypergeometric probability scores. Clicking on a particular phenolog will result in a list of genes associated with the phenotype, from which potential new candidate genes can identified. Currently known phenotypes in the database are available from the link labeled ''Find phenotypes'', where the associated gene can be submitted as queries, or alternately, can be searched directly from the link provided.

A comprehensive biochemical knowledge-base on human metabolism, this community-driven, consensus metabolic reconstruction integrates metabolic information from five different resources: * Recon 1, a global human metabolic reconstruction (Duarte et al, PNAS, 104(6), 1777-1782, 2007) * EHMN, Edinburgh Human Metabolic Network (Hao et al., BMC Bioinformatics 11, 393, 2010) * HepatoNet1, a liver metabolic reconstruction (Gille et al., Molecular Systems Biology 6, 411, 2010), * Ac/FAO module, an acylcarnitine/fatty acid oxidation module (Sahoo et al., Molecular bioSystems 8, 2545-2558, 2012), * a human small intestinal enterocytes reconstruction (Sahoo and Thiele, submitted). Additionally, more than 370 transport and exchange reactions were added, based on a literature review. Recon 2 is fully semantically annotated (Le Nov��re, N. et al. Nat Biotechnol 23, 1509-1515, 2005) with references to persistent and publicly available chemical and gene databases, unambiguously identifying its components and increasing its applicability for third-party users. Here you can explore the content of the reconstruction by searching/browsing metabolites and reactions. Recon 2 predictive model is available in the Systems Biology Markup Language format.

http://cossmos.slu.edu/

Database to search through the nucleic acid structures from the Protein Data Bank and examine structural motifs, including (a)symmetric internal loops, bulge loops, and hairpin loops. They have compiled over 2,000 three-dimensional structures, which can now be searched using different parameters, including PDB information, experimental technique, sequence, and motif type. RNA secondary structure is important for designing therapeutics, understanding protein-RNA binding and predicting tertiary structure of RNA. Several databases and downloadable programs exist that specialize in the three-dimensional (3D) structure of RNA, but none focus specifically on secondary structural motifs such as internal, bulge and hairpin loops. To create the RNA CoSSMos database, 2156 Protein Data Bank (PDB) files were searched for internal, bulge and hairpin loops, and each loop''''s structural information, including sugar pucker, glycosidic linkage, hydrogen bonding patterns and stacking interactions, was included in the database. False positives were defined, identified and reclassified or omitted from the database to ensure the most accurate results possible. Users can search via general PDB information, experimental parameters, sequence and specific motif and by specific structural parameters in the subquery page after the initial search. Returned results for each search can be viewed individually or a complete set can be downloaded into a spreadsheet to allow for easy comparison. The RNA CoSSMos database is updated weekly.
