Update on genome completion and annotations: Protein Information Resource

The Protein Information Resource

The Protein Information Resource (PIR) is an integrated public resource of protein informatics that supports genomic and proteomic research and scientific discovery. PIR maintains the Protein Sequence Database (PSD), an annotated protein database containing over 283 000 sequences covering the entire taxonomic range. Family classification is used for sensitive identification, consistent annotati...

The Protein Information Resource (PIR)

The Protein Information Resource (PIR) produces the largest, most comprehensive, annotated protein sequence database in the public domain, the PIR-International Protein Sequence Database, in collaboration with the Munich Information Center for Protein Sequences (MIPS) and the Japan International Protein Sequence Database (JIPID). The expanded PIR WWW site allows sequence similarity and text sea...

The Candida Genome Database (CGD), a community resource for Candida albicans gene and protein information

The Candida Genome Database (CGD) is a new database that contains genomic information about the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans. CGD is a public resource for the research community that is interested in the molecular biology of this fungus. CGD curators are in the process of combing the scientific literature to collect all C.albicans gene names and aliases; to assign gene ontolog...

Genome dynamic and statistical functional annotations

Statistical and clustering analyses of gene expression results from high-throughput microarray experiments produce lists of hundreds of genes candidate regulated, or with particular expression profile patterns, in the conditions under study. Independently of the microarray platforms and analysis methods used to identify and cluster differentially expressed genes, the common task any researcher ...
