Consortium founded to establish mechanism-based taxonomies for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders (NDD), with the goal of facilitating development of more effective and targeted treatments. To do this, the consortium collects and analyzes data to: * Create new ways to combine underutilized data currently available in the literature, public databases, and from private companies * Determine how to dynamically organize and structure different types of knowledge about NDD * Determine how to apply this knowledge to construct new patient group classification * Identify correlations between disease features at molecular, tissue or organ-specific, and clinical levels * Identify sub-groups of patients based on the molecular cause of their disease, as opposed to the nature and location of their symptoms * Deliver data, tools, and recommendations for the biomedical community in the treatment of NDD A mechanism-based taxonomy is hoped to advance the: # Description and organization of the indication-specific data # Linking of data to disease models, based on causal and correlative relationships The expected outcome of AETIONOMY is a new NDD taxonomy system that distinguishes mixed pathologies, allowing for new features or classes to be added into the taxonomy, all with the goal of aiding drug and biomarker discovery.

http://skylign.org/

A tool for creating logos representing both sequence alignments and profile hidden Markov models. The interactive logos enable scrolling, zooming, and inspection of underlying values. Skylign can avoid sampling bias in sequence alignments by down-weighting redundant sequences and by combining observed counts with informed priors. It also simplifies the representation of gap parameters, and can optionally scale letter heights based on alternate calculations of the conservation of a position.

http://iubio.bio.indiana.edu/webapps/SeWeR/

Sequence analysis using Web Resources (SeWeR) is an integrated, Dynamic HTML (DHTML) interface to commonly used bioinformatics services available on the World Wide Web. It is highly customizable, extendable, platform neutral, completely server-independent and can be hosted as a web page as well as being used as stand-alone software running within a web browser. It doesn''t require any server to host itself. The goal of SeWeR is to turn your web-browser into a powerful sequence-analysis tool. It is written entirely in JavaScript1.2. SeWeR can be downloaded and mirrored freely. The whole package is just around 300K. You can even run it from a floppy. SeWeR is not compatible with Netscape 6. SeWeR now generates graphics. Savvy is a plasmid drawing software that generates plasmid map in the revolutionary Scalable Vector Graphics format from W3C.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosystems/

Database that provides access to biological systems and their component genes, proteins, and small molecules, as well as literature describing those biosystems and other related data throughout Entrez. 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. BioSystem records list and categorize components, such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems. A number of databases provide diagrams showing the components and products of biological pathways along with corresponding annotations and links to literature. This database was developed as a complementary project to (1) serve as a centralized repository of data; (2) connect the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system; and (3) facilitate computation on biosystems data. The NCBI BioSystems Database currently contains records from several source databases: KEGG, BioCyc (including its Tier 1 EcoCyc and MetaCyc databases, and its Tier 2 databases), Reactome, the National Cancer Institute's Pathway Interaction Database, WikiPathways, and Gene Ontology (GO). It includes several types of records such as pathways, structural complexes, and functional sets, and is desiged to accomodate other record types, such as diseases, as data become available. Through these collaborations, the BioSystems database facilitates access to, and provides the ability to compute on, a wide range of biosystems data. If you are interested in depositing data into the BioSystems database, please contact them.

http://www.smpdb.ca/

An interactive, visual database containing more than 350 small molecule pathways found in humans. More than 2/3 of these pathways (>280) are not found in any other pathway database. SMPDB is designed specifically to support pathway elucidation and pathway discovery in metabolomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and systems biology. It is able to do so, in part, by providing exquisitely detailed, fully searchable, hyperlinked diagrams of human metabolic pathways, metabolic disease pathways, metabolite signaling pathways and drug-action pathways. All SMPDB pathways include information on the relevant organs, subcellular compartments, protein cofactors, protein locations, metabolite locations, chemical structures and protein quaternary structures. Each small molecule is hyperlinked to detailed descriptions contained in the HMDB or DrugBank and each protein or enzyme complex is hyperlinked to UniProt. All SMPDB pathways are accompanied with detailed descriptions and references, providing an overview of the pathway, condition or processes depicted in each diagram. The database is easily browsed and supports full text, sequence and chemical structure searching. Users may query SMPDB with lists of metabolite names, drug names, genes / protein names, SwissProt IDs, GenBank IDs, Affymetrix IDs or Agilent microarray IDs. These queries will produce lists of matching pathways and highlight the matching molecules on each of the pathway diagrams. Gene, metabolite and protein concentration data can also be visualized through SMPDB''s mapping interface. All of SMPDB''s images, image maps, descriptions and tables are downloadable.
