Abstract

UNLABELLED: Several methods for establishing cross-links between Protein Data Bank (PDB) structures or Structural Classification of Proteins (SCOP) domains and Swiss-Prot + TrEMBL sequences (or vice versa) rely on database annotations. Alternatively, sequence alignment procedures can be used. In this study, we describe Seq2Struct, a web resource for the identification of sequence-structure links. The resource consists of an exhaustive collection of annotated links between Swiss-Prot + TrEMBL and PDB + SCOP database entries. Links are based on pre-established highly reliable thresholds and stored in a relational database, which has been enhanced using annotations derived from Swiss-Prot, PDB, SCOP, GOA and DSSP databases. The Seq2Struct database contents, supported by a WWW web interface, can be queried both online and downloaded. AVAILABILITY: The Seq2Struct resource, with related documentation, is available at http://surface.bio.uniroma2.it/seq2struct/ CONTACT: seq2struct@cbm.bio.uniroma2.it.

The Toxic Exposure Surveillance System (TESS): risk assessment and real-time toxicovigilance across United States poison centers.

The Toxic Exposure Surveillance System (TESS) is a uniform data set of US poison centers cases. Categories of information include the patient, the caller, the exposure, the substance(s), clinical toxicity, treatment, and medical outcome. The TESS database was initiated in 1985, and provides a baseline of more than 36.2 million cases through 2003. The database has been utilized for a number of safety evaluations. Consideration of the strengths and limitations of TESS data must be incorporated into data interpretation. Real-time toxicovigilance was initiated in 2003 with continuous uploading of new cases from all poison centers to a central database. Real-time toxicovigilance utilizing general and specific approaches is systematically run against TESS, further increasing the potential utility of poison center experiences as a means of early identification of potential public health threats.

DBToolkit: processing protein databases for peptide-centric proteomics.

UNLABELLED: DBToolkit is a user-friendly, easily extensible tool that allows the processing of protein sequence databases to peptide-centric sequence databases. This processing is primarily aimed at enhancing the useful information content of these databases for use as optimized search spaces for efficient identification of peptide fragmentation spectra obtained by mass spectrometry. In addition, DBToolkit can be used to reliably solve a range of other typical tasks in processing sequence databases. AVAILABILITY: DBToolkit is open source under the GNU GPL license. The source code, full user and developer documentation and cross-platform binaries are freely downloadable from the project website at http://genesis.UGent.be/dbtoolkit/ CONTACT: lennart.martens@UGent.be

PhD: a web database application for phenotype data management.

A database application has been developed for phenotype data management employing the Entity-Attribute-Value (EAV) model. By applying the EAV model, this application allows users to manage arbitrary phenotypes and customize data entry forms; therefore, it is suitable for different and multi-center projects.
