http://www.scandb.org/newinterface/about.html

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 17, 2022. A large-scale database of genetics and genomics data associated to a web-interface and a set of methods and algorithms that can be used for mining the data in it. The database contains two categories of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) annotations: # Physical-based annotation where SNPs are categorized according to their position relative to genes (intronic, inter-genic, etc.) and according to linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns (an inter-genic SNP can be annotated to a gene if it is in LD with variation in the gene). # Functional annotation where SNPs are classified according to their effects on expression levels, i.e. whether they are expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) for that gene. SCAN can be utilized in several ways including: (i) queries of the SNP and gene databases; (ii) analysis using the attached tools and algorithms; (iii) downloading files with SNP annotation for various GWA platforms. . eQTL files and reported GWAS from NHGRI may be downloaded., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://gila.bioengr.uic.edu/snp/toposnp

A topographic database for analyzing non-synonymous SNPs (nsSNPs) that can be mapped onto known 3D structures of proteins. These include disease- associated nsSNPs derived from the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) database and other nsSNPs derived from dbSNP, a resource at the National Center for Biotechnology Information that catalogs SNPs. TopoSNP further classifies each nsSNP site into three categories based on their geometric location: those located in a surface pocket or an interior void of the protein, those on a convex region or a shallow depressed region, and those that are completely buried in the interior of the protein structure. These unique geometric descriptions provide more detailed mapping of nsSNPs to protein structures. It also includes relative entropy of SNPs calculated from multiple sequence alignment as obtained from the Pfam database (a database of protein families and conserved protein motifs) as well as manually adjusted multiple alignments obtained from ClustalW. These structural and conservational data can be useful for studying whether nsSNPs in coding regions are likely to lead to phenotypic changes. TopoSNP includes an interactive structural visualization web interface, as well as downloadable batch data.

http://biogps.org/

An extensible and customizable gene annotation portal that emphasizes community extensibility and user customizability. It is a complete resource for learning about gene and protein function. Community extensibility reflects a belief that any BioGPS user should be able to add new content to BioGPS using the simple plugin interface, completely independently of the core developer team. User customizability recognizes that not all users are interested in the same set of gene annotation data, so the gene report layouts enable each user to define the information that is most relevant to them. Currently, BioGPS supports eight species: Human (Homo sapiens), Mouse (Mus musculus), Rat (Rattus norvegicus), Fruitfly (Drosophila melanogaster), Nematode (Caenorhabditis elegans), Zebrafish (Danio rerio), Thale-cress (Arabidopsis thaliana), Frog (Xenopus tropicalis), and Pig (Sus scrofa). BioGPS presents data in an ortholog-centric format, which allows users to display mouse plugins next to human ones. Our data for defining orthologs comes from NCBI's HomoloGene database.

http://www.isi.edu/projects/bioscholar/overview

Knowledge management and engineering system software for experimental biomedical scientists permitting a single scientific worker (at the level of a graduate student or postdoctoral worker) to design, construct and manage a shared knowledge repository for a research group derived on a local store of PDF files. Usability is especially emphasized within a laboratory so that this software could provide support to experimental scientists attempting to construct a personalized representation of their own knowledge on a medium scale. The BioScholar system uses a graphical interface to create experimental designs based on the experimental variables in the system. The design is then analyzed to construct a tabular input form based on the data flow. They call this methodology "Knowledge Engineering from Experimental Design" or "KEfED". The approach is domain-independent but domain-specific modules reasoning can be constructed to generate interpretations from the observational data represented in the KEfED model. The application is available for download as platform-specific installers including Linux, Unix, Mac OS, and Windows. The installer will install an application that will run the BioScholar server. This server uses Jetty as its integrated web server.

https://simtk.org/home/allopathfinder

Software application and code base that allows users to compute likely allosteric pathways in proteins. The underlying assumption is that residues participating in allosteric communication should be fairly conserved and that communication happens through residues that are close in space. The initial application for the code provided was to study the allosteric communication in myosin. Myosin is a well-studied molecular motor protein that walks along actin filaments to achieve cellular tasks such as movement of cargo proteins. It couples ATP hydrolysis to highly-coordinated conformational changes that result in a power-stroke motion, or "walking" of myosin. Communication between a set of residues must link the three functional regions of myosin and transduce energy: the catalytic ATP binding region, the lever arm, and the actin-binding domain. They are investigating which residues are likely to participate in allosteric communication pathways. The application is a collection of C++/QT code, suitable for reproducing the computational results of the paper. (PMID 17900617) In addition, they provide input and alignment information to reproduce Figure 3 (a key figure) in the paper. Examples provided will show users how to use AlloPathFinder with other protein families, assumed to exhibit an allosteric communication. To run the application a multiple sequence alignment of representative proteins from the protein family is required along with at least one protein structure.

HEFalMp (Human Experimental/FunctionAL MaPper) is a tool developed by Curtis Huttenhower in Olga Troyanskaya's lab at Princeton University. It was created to allow interactive exploration of functional maps. Functional mapping analyzes portions of these networks related to user-specified groups of genes and biological processes and displays the results as probabilities (for individual genes), functional association p-values (for groups of genes), or graphically (as an interaction network). HEFalMp contains information from roughly 15,000 microarray conditions, over 15,000 publications on genetic and physical protein interactions, and several types of DNA and protein sequence analyses and allows the exploration of over 200 H. sapiens process-specific functional relationship networks, including a global, process-independent network capturing the most general functional relationships. Looking to download functional maps? Keep an eye on the bottom of each page of results: every functional map of any kind is generated with a Download link at the bottom right. Most functional maps are provided as tab-delimited text to simplify downstream processing; graphical interaction networks are provided as Support Vector Graphics files, which can be viewed using the Adobe Viewer, any recent version of Firefox, or the excellent open source Inkscape tool.

Longitudinal study of a nationally representative sample of adolescents in grades 7-12 in the United States during the 1994-95 school year. Public data on about 21,000 people first surveyed in 1994 are available on the first phases of the study, as well as study design specifications. It also includes some parent and biomarker data. The Add Health cohort has been followed into young adulthood with four in-home interviews, the most recent in 2008, when the sample was aged 24-32. Add Health combines longitudinal survey data on respondents social, economic, psychological and physical well-being with contextual data on the family, neighborhood, community, school, friendships, peer groups, and romantic relationships, providing unique opportunities to study how social environments and behaviors in adolescence are linked to health and achievement outcomes in young adulthood. The fourth wave of interviews expanded the collection of biological data in Add Health to understand the social, behavioral, and biological linkages in health trajectories as the Add Health cohort ages through adulthood. The restricted-use contract includes four hours of free consultation with appropriate staff; after that, there''s a fee for help. Researchers can also share information through a listserv devoted to the database.

Flexible Structural Neighborhood is a database of structural neighbors of proteins as seen by FATCAT - a flexible protein structure alignment program. The server accepts either a protein (PDB ID) or a domain (SCOP ID) as a query. For the former case, the server first displays the information of chains and domains of a given protein. Afterwards, users can retrieve similar structures for a domain (if domain information is available, i.e., the protein is collected by SCOP), or for a chain otherwise. The protein structure database we collected for similar structure search includes a representative set at 90% sequence identity of SCOP domains, and of up-to-date PDB entries that are not included in the latest release of SCOP.
