BGI-RIS: An integrated information resource and comparative analysis workbench for rice genomics
Download2004
Wang, J., Chen, Y., Zhao, H., Dai, M., Zhao, W., Huang, X., Zhang, Y., Ren. X., Jiao, Y., Wong, G., Wei, S., Ni, P., Yu, J., Zhang, J., Li, S., Yang, H., Fu, J., He, X.
Rice is a major food staple for the world's population and serves as a model species in cereal genome research. The Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI) has long been devoting itself to sequencing, information analysis and biological research of the rice and other crop genomes. In order to facilitate...

Al-Induced, 51-Kilodalton, Membrane-Bound Proteins Are Associated with Resistance to Al in a Segregating Population of Wheat
Download1997
Zhang, G., Good, A., Taylor, G. J., Slaski, J. J., Basu, A.
Incorporation of S-35 into protein is reduced by exposure to Al in wheat (Triticum aestivum), but the effects are genotype-specific. Exposure to 10 to 75 mu M Al had little effect on S-35 incorporation into total protein, nuclear and mitochondrial protein, microsomal protein, and cytosolic...

The expression of the cyanobacterial recA gene, isolated from Anabaena variabilis, has been examined at the levels of transcript and protein abundance. Exposure of the cyanobacterium to a variety of DNA-damaging agents, including mitomycin C, methyl methanesulfonate, and UV irradiation, results...

PCR-based methods for identification of two Eteobalea species (Lepidoptera: Cosmopterigidae) used as biocontrol agents of weedy Linaria species (Scrophulariaceae)
Download2005
Pohl, G. R., McClay, A. S., Sperling, F. A. H., Mitchell, A.
Two European species of the genus Eleobalea Hodges are being tested as classical biological control agents for toadflax (Linaria spp.) in Canada. Permits for the release of these species apply only to an Italian population of E. serratella Treitschke and a Serbian population of E. intermediella...

The goal of this group project has been to coordinate and bring up-to-date information on all genes of Escherichia coli K-12. Annotation of the genome of an organism entails identification of genes, the boundaries of genes in terms of precise start and end sites, and description of the gene...

Improving the accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction using structural alignment
Download2006
Gallin, W.J., Wishart, D.S., Montgomerie, S., Sundararaj, S.
Background: The accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction has steadily improved over the past 30 years. Now many secondary structure prediction methods routinely achieve an accuracy (Q3) of about 75%. We believe this accuracy could be further improved by including structure (as opposed...

Guan, L., Guo, Y., Liu, T., Li, H., Wang, J., Zheng, W.M., Wong, G.K.
Background The main two sorts of automatic gene annotation frameworks are ab initio and alignment-based, the latter splitting into two sub-groups. The first group is used for intra-species alignments, among which are successful ones with high specificity and speed. The other group contains more...

GeNMR (GEnerate NMR structures) is a web server for rapidly generating accurate 3D protein structures using sequence data, NOE-based distance restraints and/or NMR chemical shifts as input. GeNMR accepts distance restraints in XPLOR or CYANA format as well as chemical shift files in either SHIFTY...
