http://n2t.net/ezid

A production service that gives researchers the ability to create and manage long-term identifiers so that they can to track usage, get credit for their work, share their data, and have the data reused for additional research. As a result, EZID identifiers also make it possible to increase citations, to build on previous work, to conduct new research, and avoid duplicating previous efforts. EZID identifiers provide a simple but powerful way to track research materials, including datasets, throughout their life cycle. In this way, researchers can share their data, get more citations, and track their results.

http://academickarma.org

A peer review management system which encourages timely and high quality peer review by using a credit system. Reviewers complete reviews using a general webform on academickarma.org, and if that review is submited to an editor within ten days, the reviewer is awarded a certain amount of points (karma credits). The author and editor both receive the review. Editors can use Academic Karma to identify specialized reviewers for future reference. A reviewer's personal profile, which includes the amount of karma credits they've received, is connected to their ORCID account and publication record for an overview of the reviewer's work.

http://amp.pharm.mssm.edu/Enrichr/

A web-based gene list enrichment analysis tool that provides various types of visualization summaries of collective functions of gene lists. It includes new gene-set libraries, an alternative approach to rank enriched terms, and various interactive visualization approaches to display enrichment results using the JavaScript library, Data Driven Documents (D3). The software can also be embedded into any tool that performs gene list analysis. System-wide profiling of genes and proteins in mammalian cells produce lists of differentially expressed genes / proteins that need to be further analyzed for their collective functions in order to extract new knowledge. Once unbiased lists of genes or proteins are generated from such experiments, these lists are used as input for computing enrichment with existing lists created from prior knowledge organized into gene-set libraries.

http://www.glycosciences.de/tools/glytorsion/

Service that performs a statistical analysis of carbohydrate torsion angles derived from the Protein Data Bank. Such as protein conformation can be described by the backbone torsion angles, a carbohydrate structure is mainly characterised by its linkage torsions. With the aid of pdb2linucs, a dataset of carbohydrate torsion angles was derived from from carbohydrate structures found in the PDB. This weekly updated dataset contains, besides linkage torsions, also ring torsions, omega torsions, N-acetyle group torsions and sidechain torsions of Asn residues involved in Glycan bonds. It can be queried by GlyTorsion.

http://www.glycosciences.de/tools/glyseq/

Service dedicated to statistically analyze the sequences around glycosylation sites. Glycosylation belongs to the most common and most important co- and postranslational modifications of proteins. Since it is often difficult to determine which potential glycosylation sites are in fact glycosylated, there is only few data available about glycoproteins. Sources from which such data can be retrieved are SwissProt and the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Data from the PDB is obtained using pdb2linucs and updated weekly. GlySeq is dedicated to statistically analyze these sequences, especially the areas around glycosylation sites.

http://uswest.ensembl.org/info/docs/variation/index.html

Public database that stores areas of genome that differ between individual genomes (variants) and, where available, associated disease and phenotype information. Different types of variants for several species: single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), short nucleotide insertions and/or deletions, and longer variants classified as structural variants (including CNVs). Effects of variants on the Ensembl transcripts and regulatory features for each species are predicted. You can run same analysis on your own data using Variant Effect Predictor. These data are integrated with other data sources in Ensembl, and can be accessed using the API or website. For several different species in Ensembl, they import variation data (SNPs, CNVs, allele frequencies, genotypes, etc) from a variety of sources (e.g. dbSNP). Imported variants and alleles are subjected to quality control process to flag suspect data. In human, they calculate linkage disequilibrium for each variant, by population.

http://ancora.genereg.net/

Web resource that provides data and tools for exploring genomic organization of highly conserved noncoding elements (HCNEs) for multiple genomes. It includes a genome browser that shows HCNE locations and features novel HCNE density plots as a powerful tool to discover developmental regulatory genes and distinguish their regulatory elements and domains. They identify HCNEs as non-exonic regions of high similarity between genome sequences from distantly related organisms, such as human and fish, and provide tools for studying the distribution of HCNEs along chromosomes. Major peaks of HCNE density along chromosomes most often coincide with developmental regulatory genes. Their aim with this site is to aid discovery of developmental regulatory genes, their regulatory domains and their fundamental regulatory elements.

Biomedical technology research center that provides state-of-the-art surface analysis expertise, instrumentation, experimental protocols, and data analysis methods to address surface-related biomedical problems. NESAC/BIO develops and applies surface science methodologies that produce a full understanding of the surface composition, structure, spatial distribution, and orientation of biomaterials and adsorbed biomolecules. The NESAC/BIO program identifies areas where surface science must evolve to keep pace with the growth in biochemical knowledge and biomaterial fabrication technology, and develops instrumentation, experimental protocols, and data analysis methods to achieve this evolution. NESAC/BIO provides state-of-the-art surface analysis tools to researchers in the biomedical community. You can gain access to the NESAC/BIO facilities in one of the following ways: * Collaborative: Propose a project to collaborate on with NESAC/BIO. The project should be rewarding for both groups, and the results should reflect the utility of surface analysis for biomedical research * Service: Ask NESAC/BIO to analyze your biomaterial specimens. The spectra obtained from the analyses will be interpreted for you. * Training: Visit the University of Washington to receive training in surface analysis and personally run experiments for your individual research projects. These experiments should have a high probability for yielding useful information and should not involve the development of new ESCA techniques or methodologies.
