Resources
These are some of the resources we use to do our science.
Public Databases
antiSMASH | identify biosynthetic gene clusters in a DNA sequence
SDBS | searchable collection of spectral data for small organic molecules
GNPS | collection of MS/MS data from diverse sources
NCBI | repository for biomedical and genomic information
JGI/IMG | microbial genomes and metagenomic datasets
SMBP | collection of tools for secondary metabolite bioinformatics
NotVodoo | tips, tricks, and cautionary tales for organic chemists
npatlas | interactive database of microbial natural products
ACS DOC | compilation of useful links for organic chemists
Tools
EFI-EST | generate a sequence similarity network from a list of protein sequences
ExPASy | collection of tools for predicting the properties of a protein sequence, including ProtParam
XCMS | identify differences between sets of MS data
MASST | search for MS/MS fragmentation pattern in public datasets
HHPred | predict structural homology of a protein sequence
BLAST Tools | basic local alignment search tools for different databases: NCBI, EMBL-EBI, IMG/JGI, UniProt
InterPro | identify domains in a protein sequence
