A set of controlled, relational vocabularies of terms commonly used in Systems Biology, and in particular in computational modeling. The ontology consists of seven orthogonal vocabularies defining: the roles of reaction participants (eg. substrate), quantitative parameters (eg. Michaelis constant), a precise classification of mathematical expressions that describe the system (eg. mass action rate law), the modeling framework used (eg. logical framework), and a branch each to describe entity (eg. macromolecule) and interaction (eg. process) types, and a branch to define the different types of metadata that may be present within a model. SBO terms can be used to introduce a layer of semantic information into the standard description of a model, or to annotate the results of biochemical experiments in order to facilitate their efficient reuse. SBO is an Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) candidate ontology, and is free for use. A programmatic access to the content of the Systems Biology Ontology is provided by Web Services.

http://murphylab.web.cmu.edu/services/SLIF/

SLIF finds fluorescence microscope images in on-line journal articles, and indexes them according to cell line, proteins visualized, and resolution. Images can be accessed via the SLIF Web database. SLIF takes on-line papers and scans them for figures that contain fluorescence microscope images (FMIs). Figures typically contain multiple FMIs, to SLIF must segment these images into individual FMIs. When the FMI images are extracted, annotations for the images (for instance, names of proteins and cell-lines) are also extracted from the accompanying caption text. Protein annotation are also used to link to external databases, such as the Gene Ontology DB. The more detailed process includes: segmentation of images into panels; panel classification, to find FMIs; segmentation of the caption, to find which portions of the caption apply to which panels; text-based entity extraction; matching of extracted entities to database entries; extraction of panel labels from text and figures; and alignment of the text segments to the panels. Extracted FMIs are processed to find subcellular location features (SLFs), and the resulting analyzed, annotated figures are stored in a database, which is accessible via SQL queries.

http://www.mbio.ncsu.edu/RNaseP/home.html

Ribonuclease P is responsible for the 5''-maturation of tRNA precursors. Ribonuclease P is a ribonucleoprotein, and in bacteria (and some Archaea) the RNA subunit alone is catalytically active in vitro, i.e. it is a ribozyme. The Ribonuclease P Database is a compilation of ribonuclease P sequences, sequence alignments, secondary structures, three-dimensional models and accessory information. The database contains information on bacterial, archaeal, and eukaryotic RNase P. The RNase P and protein sequences are available from phylogentically-arranged lists, individual sequences, or aligned in GenBank format. The database also provides secondary structures and 3D models, as well as movies, still images, and other accessory information.

A curated, open-source, web-accessible resource for functional analysis of agricultural plant and animal gene products. Our long-term goal is to serve the needs of the agricultural research communities by facilitating post-genome biology for agriculture researchers and for those researchers primarily using agricultural species as biomedical models. AgBase provides tools designed to assist with the analysis of proteomics data and tools to evaluate experimental datasets using the GO. Additional tools for sequence analysis are also provided. We use controlled vocabularies developed by the Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium to describe molecular function, biological process, and cellular component for genes and gene products in agricultural species. AgBase will also accept annotations from any interested party in the research communities. AgBase develops freely available tools for functional analysis, including tools for using GO. We appreciate any and all questions, comments, and suggestions. AgBase uses the NCBI Blast program for searches for similar sequences. And the Taxonomy Browser allows users to find the NCBI defined taxon ID for or taxon name for different organisms.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on June 24, 2013. Database and Browser containing quantitative information on all the metal-containing sites available from structures in the PDB distribution. This database contains geometrical and molecular information that allows the classification and search of particular combinations of site characteristics, and answer questions such as: How many mononuclear zinc-containing sites are five coordinate with X-ray resolution better than 1.8 Angstroms?, and then be able to visualize and manipulate the matching sites. The database also includes enough information to answer questions involving type and number of ligands (e.g. "at least 2 His"), and include distance cutoff criteria (e.g. a metal-ligand distance no more than 3.0 Angstroms and no less than 2.2 Angstroms). This database is being developed as part of a project whose ultimate goal is metalloprotein design, allowing the interactive visualization of geometrical and functional information garnered from the MDB. The database is created by automatic recognition and extraction of metal-binding sites from metal-containing proteins. Quantitative information is extracted and organized into a searchable form, by iterating through all the entries in the latest PDB release (at the moment: September 2001). This is a comprehensive quantitative database, which exists in SQL format and contains information on about 5,500 proteins.
