proteomics and Analysis of Gene expression

 

 

ArrayExpress (European Bioinformatics Institute)
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/
ArrayExpress is a public repository for MGED (http://www.mged.org/) compliant annotated microarray (gene expression) data. Each microarray project in the database includes two main components: the Array (information about the array itself) and the Experiment (information about experimental factors and the actual experimental data). Information about protocols is also included.

DRAGON Database (Kennedy Krieger Institute and Johns Hopkins)
http://pevsnerlab.kennedykrieger.org/dragon.htm
DRAGON (Database Referencing of Array Genes Online) is a database of integrated protein information with data drawn from many other public databases, such as Unigene, SWISS-PROT, Pfam, and KEGG). Thus, searching DRAGON can provide information about many of the biological characteristics of the genes in a microarray data set to enhance the analysis of microarray data. DRAGON can also be used to annotate data, and has other tools for data visualization.

GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus, NCBI)
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/
GEO is a public repository for a variety of high-throughput experimental data including data from microarray-based experiments measuring mRNA, genomic DNA, and protein abundance. Other types of data include non-array techniques such as serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE), and mass spectrometry proteomic data. GEO contains approximately a billion individual gene expression measurements, from over 100 organisms and a wide range of biological issues. Data is also grouped into GEO DataSets (GDS). GDS are curated sets of GEO Sample data. Each record represents a collection of biologically and statistically comparable GEO.

Human Protein Atlas (HPI)
http://www.proteinatlas.org/
HPI illustrates the expression and localization of proteins in a variety of normal human tissues and cancer cells. Data is displayed as high resolution images of immunohistochemically stained tissue sections. Proteins (genes) can be found by specific searches (gene/protein name/id or classification, such as kinase or protease) or by browsing chromosomes.

Integr8 (European Bioinformatics Institute)
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/integr8/EBI-Integr8-HomePage.do
Integr8 provides access to integrated information about completed genomes and proteomes. It provides access to a wide variety of information drawn from many sources. Types of data include species descriptions, sequence and descriptive data, literature, statistical analyses of genomes and proteomes. Some of the data sources include EMBL, UniProt, CluSTr and GO.

SAGE Genie
http://cgap.nci.nih.gov/SAGE
The SAGE Genie website provides visual displays of human and mouse gene expression, based on a an analytical process that reliably matches SAGE tags to known genes. Recently, a reference database of SNP-associated alternative tags has been incorporated into SAGE Genie

SageNet
http://www.sagenet.org/
A web resource providing access to several collections of SAGE Data as well as to SAGE Tag to Gene Maps, protocols, software, and literature covering methods, reviews, and many types of experimental analyses using SAGE.
