What’s in a database?
Sequences – genes, proteins, etc…
Full genomes
Expression data
Structures
Annotation – information about genes/proteins:
- function
- cellular location
- chromosomal location
- introns/exons
- phenotypes, diseases
 Publications

NCBI and Entrez

One of the most largest and comprehensive
databases belonging to the NIH (national
institute of health. The primary Federal agency
for conducting and supporting medical research
in the USA)
 Entrez is the search engine of NCBI
 Search for :
genes, proteins, genomes, structures, diseases,
publications, and more
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

GenBank: NCBI’s gene & protein
database
 GenBank
is an annotated collection of all
publicly available DNA sequences (and
their amino-acid translations)
 Holds ~106.5 billion bases of ~108.5
million sequence records (Oct. 2009)

Search demonstration
Searching NCBI for the protein
human CD4

Using field descriptions, qualifiers,
and boolean operators

Cd4[GENE] AND human[ORGN]
Or
Cd4[gene name] AND human[organism]



Boolean Operators:
AND
OR
NOT
Note: do not use the field Protein name [PROT], only GENE!
19
This time we directly search in the protein database
20
RefSeq

Subcollection of NCBI databases with only nonredundant, highly annotated entries (genomic DNA,
transcript (RNA), and protein products)

Swissprot
A
protein sequence database which
strives to provide a high level of annotation
regarding:
* the function of a protein
* domains structure
* post-translational modifications
* variants
 One entry for each protein

PDB: Protein Data Bank
 Main
database of 3D structures of
macromolecules
 Includes ~61,000 entries (proteins, nucleic
acids, complex assemblies)
 Is highly redundant

Accession Numbers
GenBank
EMBL
Two letters followed by six digits, e.g.:
AY123456
One letter followed by five digits, e.g.:
U12345
Refseq
RefSeq accession numbers can be distinguished from
GenBank accessions by their prefix: 2
characters+underscore], e.g.: NP_015325
NM_: mRNA transcript, NP_: protein
SWISSPROT
Six characters:
1 [O,P,Q] 2 [0-9] 3 [A-Z,0-9] 4 [A-Z,0-9]
5 [A-Z,0-9] 6 [0-9]

databases, publications, and all available
knowledge

GO: Gene Ontology
Gene Ontology

Strives to provide consistent descriptions of gene products obtained
from different databases
 GO annotations include three hierarchical ontologies of gene
products:
 cellular component(s) – the environment in which the gene
product functions
 biological processe(s) – the biological program/pathway in which
the gene product is involved
 molecular function(s) – the elemental activities of the gene
product
 E.g., cytochrome c:
 cellular components: mitochondrial matrix and mitochondrial
inner membrane
 biological processes: oxidative phosphorylation and induction of
cell death
39
 molecular functions: oxidoreductase activity

Total – n genes

Is k/n > K/N, significantly ???
46
Statistical significance testing
Problem formulation:
In a group of N genes there are K “special” ones
If we sample n genes out of N (without replacement), and
found k “special” ones, would that be considered a random
outcome?
Mathematically, we use the hypergeometric distribution to
compute the probability of obtaining k or more “special” ones in
a sample of n

Observations
 Nuclear
pore complex: their loss may
impede HIV nuclear access
 Mediator members (couples TFs to Pol II):
requirement for activators to bind HIV
LTRs
 Enzymes involved in glycosilation: HIV’s
envelope protein is heavily glycosilated
assisting in the virus entry to cells
