The CellML language is based on the XML markup language- a computer language made for illustrating modell structures. CellML is being developed by the Bioengineering Institute at the University of Auckland and affiliated research groups. The purpose of CellML is to store and exchange computer-based mathematical models. CellML allows scientists to share models even if they are using different model-building software. ...

ChemMine is a compound mining database that facilitates drug and agrochemical discovery and chemical genomics screens. Its web service is divided into three major functional components: (1) Compound Database, comprising Annotation Search and Structure Search; (2) Cheminformatics Workbench; and (3) Screening Database. A detailed tutorial for using ChemMine's online services is available on the ReadMe page. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
This presentation is aimed at beginning biochemistry students. Anyone who has some knowledge of the basics of protein structure should be able to follow this presentation. I would imagine that students who have completed (and understood!) a good chunk of the first semester of a typical undergraduate biochemistry course should do just fine here. ...

The American Society for Cell Biology will hold its annual meeting in december 2013 in New Orleans. As the premier international meeting in the field of cell biology, the ASCB Annual Meeting is intended for scientists and students in academia, industry, government, and higher education. Over 100 scientific sessions and 2,500 poster presentations cover a variety of scientific areas within the discipline. With opportunities to learn about the latest research and network with peers, the ASCB Annual Meeting appeals to the diverse interests of the international cell biology community. ...

By the time scientists arrive in San Diego in December 2015, an estimated 40,000 papers on cell biology will have been published since the 2014 meeting. Even more data will be available on imaging, protein structures, genomics, gene expression, and more. Our challenge is to convert this information into meaningful knowledge to understand how cells work. The 2015 ASCB meeting overarching theme is about making connections at different scales, from the intracellular level to the tissue level, to the organism level all the way up to the macrocosmic level, all in the light of big data and information integration. This integration will help us ask the right questions and find answers to the challenging problems in medicine, living systems, and ecosystems. Cell biology is increasingly relevant not only to those who think of themselves as cell biologists but also to more specialized researchers in neuroscience, immunology, cancer biology, synthetic biology, biophysics, molecular medicine, and more. ...

'The BindingDB is a public, web-accessible database of measured binding affinities for biomolecules, genetically or chemically modified biomolecules, and synthetic compounds.The database currently contains data generated by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and enzyme inhibition (Enz. Inhib.) methods; other techniques will be included in the future. ... [Information of the supplier]
Biocurious is a weblog about biology (and physics, grad school, and miscellenaeous other things!) through the eyes of physicists. [Information of the supplier]
The Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) is a not-for-profit organization that aims to determine the three dimensional structures of proteins of medical relevance, and place them in the public domain without restriction. The SGC operates out of the Universities of Oxford and Toronto and Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm. The SGC works on structures of proteins from its Target List of ~2,000 proteins, which comprises human proteins associated with diseases such as cancer, diabetes, inflammation, and genetic diseases, as well as proteins from human parasites such as those that cause malaria. Research at the SGC is divided into three areas: structural genomics of soluble proteins, structural genomics of integral membrane proteins, and structural chemistry of soluble proteins. ...

myGrid is a suite of components designed to support in silico science, encompassing workflow design and execution, data and metadata management and provenance collection. The wealth of bioinformatics resources and data available in the public domain provides scientists with great opportunities for research, but the distribution and heterogeneity of the data means that integrating resources is challenging. myGrid addresses this problem by providing a mechanism of interoperating and integrating between these resources using Taverna workflows. Taverna workflows connect distributed web services and other services. Most of these services are not developed or maintained by myGrid, they are provided by third parties, for example, the major bioinformatics service providers – EBI, NCBI, DDBJ, and KEGG. In most cases, they are not even developed for Taverna, we simply exploit the Web Service technologies being adopted by the community. ... [Information of the supplier]
The Biological Biochemical Image Database is a searchable database of images of putative biological pathways, macromolecular structures, gene families, and cellular relationships. It is of use to those who are working with large sets of genes or proteins using cDNA arrays, functional genomics, or proteomics. [Information of the supplier]
