Public Databases for Academic and Non-profit Organizations

TRANSFAC® 7.0 Public 2005 contains data on transcription factors, their experimentelly-proven binding sites, and regulated genes. Its broad compilation of binding sites allows the derivation of positional weight matrices.

TRANSPATH® 6.0 Public 2005 provides data about molecules participating in signal transduction pathways and the reactions they are involved in, resulting in a complex network of interconnected signaling components.
TRANSPATH focuses on signaling cascades that change the activities of transcription factors and thus alter the gene expression profile of a given cell.

PathoDB® 2.0 Public 2005 is a database on pathologically relevant mutated forms of transcription factors and their binding sites.
It comprises numerous cases of defective transcription factors or mutated transcription factor binding sites, which are known to cause pathological defects.

S/MARt
DBTM 1.1 Public 2005 presents data on scaffold or matrix attached regions (S/MARs) of eukaryotic genomes, as well as about the proteins that bind to them.
S/MARs organize the chromatin in the form of functionally independent loop domains gained increasing support. Scaffold or Matrix Attached Regions (S/MARs) are genomic DNA sequences through which the chromatin is tightly attached to the proteinaceous scaffold of the nucleus.

TRANSCompel® 7.0 Public 2005 is a database on composite regulatory elements affecting gene
transcription in eukaryotes. Composite regulatory elements consist
of two closely situated binding sites for distinct transcription
factors, and provide cross-coupling of different signalling pathways.

Cytomer® 0.4 Public is a relational database on "gene expression sources"
which lists physiological systems,organs and cell types. It differentiates
these objects according to the developmental stage. Presently,
this module is restricted to human and mouse sources.

PathoSign Public is a database which collects information about defective
cell signaling molecules causing human diseases. It has been developed
by and is maintained in the Department of Bioinformatics, Center
of Informatics, Statistics and Epidemiology, Göttingen Medical
School, University of Göttingen While constituting a useful data
repository in itself, PathoSign is also aimed at being a foundational
part of a platform for modeling human disease processes, which
is the overarching goal of the department's efforts. Part of this
work was funded by the TEMBLOR (EU, contract no. QLRI-CT-2001-00015)
and NGFN2 (German Ministry of Education and Research, grant no.
01GR0480) projects.
