HGNC : Human Gene Nomenclature Database
We have already approved over 24,000 symbols;
the vast majority of these are for protein-coding genes, but also
include symbols for pseudogenes, non-coding RNAs,
phenotypes and genomic features (see HGNC Search).
Our current priority is assigning nomenclature to genes submitted to us
from...

Biologists currently waste a lot of time and effort in searching
for all of the available information about each small area of research.
This is hampered further by the wide variations in terminology that may
be common usage at any given time,...

Description:
- pThe objective of GO is to provide controlled vocabularies for the description of the molecular function, biological process and cellular component of gene products. These terms are to be used as attributes of gene products by collaborating databases, facilitating uniform queries across them. The controlled vocabularies of terms are structured to allow both attribution and querying to be at different levels of granularity.ppGO is a database independent of any other. GO itself is not populated with gene products of any organism, although tools can be built which allowGO to be displayed as if it were (e.g. http:www.fruitfly.organnotgo). Databases external to GO collaborate with GO in three ways: by makingdatabase cross-links between GO terms and objects in their database (typically, gene products, or their surrogates, genes), and then providingtables of these links to GO (and hence the community), second by supporting queries that use these terms in their database, and third bycontributing to the development of the GO database itself expanding the vocabularies and refining the terms.p ,

Description:
- The Swiss-Prot, TrEMBL, and PIR protein database activities have united to form the Universal Protein Resource (UniProt), which provides a central resource on protein sequences and functional annotation with three database components, each addressing a key need in protein bioinformatics. The UniProt Knowledgebase (UniProtKB), comprising the manually annotated UniProtKBSwiss-Prot section and the automatically annotated UniProtKBTrEMBL section, is the preeminent storehouse of protein annotation. The extensive cross-references, functional and feature annotations, and literature-based evidence attribution enable scientists to analyze proteins and query across databases. The UniProt Reference Clusters (UniRef) speed similarity searches via sequence space compression by merging sequences that are 100% (UniRef100), 90% (UniRef90), or 50% (UniRef50) identical. Finally, the UniProt Archive (UniParc) stores all publicly available protein sequences, containing the history of sequence data with links to the source databases. The UniProt databases continue to grow in size and in availability of information. New download availability includes all major releases of UniProtKB, sequence collections by taxonomic division, and complete proteomes. A bibliography mapping service has been added, and an ID mapping service will be available soon.

Description:
- The NCBI Entrez Protein database comprises sequences taken from a variety of sources, including SwissProt, the Protein Information Resource, the Protein Research Foundation, the Protein Data Bank, and translations from annotated coding regions in the GenBank and RefSeq databases. Protein sequence records in Entrez have links to pre-computed protein BLAST alignments, protein structures, conserved protein domains, nucleotide sequences, genomes, and genes. ,
- The NCBI Taxonomy Database includes names and classifications for all of the organisms that are represented in the protein and sequence databases. The taxonomy browser is a convenient way to navigate and search the classification; it is updated continuously as new taxa are added to the database. The taxonomy browser includes a rich set of links to other NCBI resources (sequences, structures, genomes, literature &c.) as well as externally curated links to outside resources (LinkOut links). The taxonomy database is also represented as a domain of Entrez (a href=http:www.ncbi.nlm.nih.goventrezquery.fcgi?db=Taxonomyhttp:www.ncbi.nlm.nih.goventrezquery.fcgi?db=Taxonomya) and is available as a set of ftp files (a href=ftp:ftp.ncbi.nih.govpubtaxonomyftp:ftp.ncbi.nih.govpubtaxonomya) that are updated every two hours. ,
- The NCBI Viral Genomes Resource (a href=http:www.ncbi.nlm.nih.govgenomesVIRUSESviruses.htmlhttp:www.ncbi.nlm.nih.govgenomesVIRUSESviruses.htmla) provides sequence information, as well as precomputed comparative analyses and Web tools, for all viruses and viroids for which (nearly) complete genomic sequences have been established and deposited to DDBJ, EMBL, or GeneBank. The collection currently contains over 2200 reference sequences (RefSeq) and about 6,500 additional complete sequences for more than 1,500 different viral species. The reference sequences are maintained in separate records that are further curated and updated. Whenever more than one complete genome for a species is available, a pairwise global alignment of a reference sequence with each additional sequence is provided. Precomputed clusters of related proteins (VOG) from the reference sequences help navigate among viral proteomes and summarize available functional information for most major virus groups. The data are accessible via Entrez as well as from specialized Web pages offering visualization of the sequence information at various levels of detail.
