The Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) prototype identifies interactions between chemicals and genes in diverse organisms to advance understanding of how environmental chemicals affect human health. CTD integrates and curates gene, sequence, chemical, reference, taxonomic and Gene Ontology data to support your hypotheses about gene-chemical interactions. Our data integration and curation are in early stages [as of February 2005]. For example, to date, we have curated 21 of approximately 550 targeted genes. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
PubMed, available via the NCBI Entrez retrieval system, was developed by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the National Library of Medicine (NLM), located at the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH). Entrez is the text-based search and retrieval system used at NCBI for services including PubMed, Nucleotide and Protein Sequences, Protein Structures, Complete Genomes, Taxonomy, OMIM, and many others. PubMed provides access to citations from biomedical literature. LinkOut provides access to full-text articles at journal Web sites and other related Web resources. PubMed also provides access and links to the other Entrez molecular biology resources. PubMed provides access to bibliographic information that includes MEDLINE, OLDMEDLINE, as well as: (1) The out-of-scope citations (e.g., articles on plate tectonics or astrophysics) from certain MEDLINE journals, primarily general science and chemistry journals, for which the life sciences articles are indexed for MEDLINE. (2) Citations that precede the date that a journal was selected for MEDLINE indexing. (3) Some additional life science journals that submit full text to PubMedCentral and receive a qualitative review by NLM. ... [Information of the supplier]
The DrugBank database is a unique bioinformatics and cheminformatics resource that combines detailed drug (i.e. chemical, pharmacological and pharmaceutical) data with comprehensive drug target (i.e. sequence, structure, and pathway) information. The database contains nearly 4800 drug entries including >1,340 FDA-approved small molecule drugs, 123 FDA-approved biotech (protein/peptide) drugs, 69 nutraceuticals and >3,100 experimental drugs. Additionally, more than 2,500 non-redundant protein (i.e. drug target) sequences are linked to these FDA approved drug entries. Each DrugCard entry contains more than 100 data fields with half of the information being devoted to drug/chemical data and the other half devoted to drug target or protein data. ...

Bookshelf provides free access to books and documents in life science and healthcare. A vital node in the data-rich resource network at NCBI, Bookshelf enables users to easily browse, retrieve, and read content, and spurs discovery of related information. NLM LitArch (NLM Literature Archive) is a digital archive for books, documents, and articles in the fields of life science, medicine, and healthcare at the National Institutes of Health, managed by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) within the National Library of Medicine. NLM LitArch complements the PubMed Central (PMC) archive, which houses full-text electronic journal literature that is made available through the PubMed Central website; it includes books and documents which are not included within the PMC archive. Full text of content from this electronic archive is freely accessible through Bookshelf and other NCBI services. Abstracts of selected books and documents are also searchable in PubMed, the database of clinical abstracts, and linked to the full text of the documents in Bookshelf. ...

PubMed Commons is a system that enables researchers to share their opinions about scientific publications. Researchers can comment on any publication indexed by PubMed, and read the comments of others. PubMed Commons is a forum for open and constructive criticism and discussion of scientific issues. It will thrive with high quality interchange from the scientific community. PubMed Commons is currently in a closed pilot testing phase, which means that only invited participants can add and view comments in PubMed. ... [Information of the supplier]
Launched in 1993, Access Excellence is a national educational program that provides high school health and biology teachers access to their colleagues, scientists, and critical sources of new scientific information via the World Wide Web. In 1999, Access Excellence was donated to the National Health Museum by Genentech, a leading biotechnology company. Access Excellence currently forms the core of the educational component of the National Health Museum Website and will be expanded substantially to better serve the needs of K-12 health educators. ...

The HCV database group strives to present HCV-associated genetic and immunologic data in a userfriendly way, by providing access to the central database via web-accessible search interfaces and supplying a number of analysis tools. (...) The HCV search interface allows you to find and download sequences on the basis of a number of criteria. (...) You can either download all sequences (as nucleotides or amino acid sequences) that meet your criteria, or you can limit your set to a specific gene or region by selecting that genomic region on the search interface. (...) ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
Influenza Virus Resource presents data obtained from the NIAID Influenza Genome Sequencing Project as well as from GenBank, combined with tools for flu sequence analysis and annotation. In addition, it provides links to other resources that contain flu sequences, publications and general information about flu viruses. [Information of the supplier]
Das Hauptziel der Webpräsenz ist die Bereitstellung allgemeinverständlicher Informationen rund um das menschliche Auge. Unter Vermeidung eines medizinischen "Fachchinesisch" sollen Laien verschiedene Aspekte des Themas kennenlernen können, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf augenfachärztlichen Themen liegt. Aber auch die biologischen Grundlagen des menschlichen Sehens werden durch Texte und Abbildungen erläutert. ... [Redaktion vifabio]
The Human Metabolome Database (HMDB) is a freely available electronic database containing detailed information about small molecule metabolites found in the human body. It is intended to be used for applications in metabolomics, clinical chemistry, biomarker discovery and general education. The database is designed to contain or link three kinds of data: 1) chemical data, 2) clinical data, and 3) molecular biology/biochemistry data. The database currently contains nearly 2500 metabolite entries including both water-soluble and lipid soluble metabolites as well as metabolites that would be regarded as either abundant (> 1 uM) or relatively rare (< 1 nM). ...
