RegulonDB v12.0: a comprehensive resource of transcriptional regulation in E. coli K-12.

RegulonDB is a database that contains the most comprehensive corpus of knowledge of the regulation of transcription initiation of Escherichia coli K-12, including data from both classical molecular biology and high-throughput methodologies. Here, we describe biological advances since our last NAR paper of 2019. We explain the changes to satisfy FAIR requirements.

RegulonDB 11.0: Comprehensive high-throughput datasets on transcriptional regulation in K-12.

Genomics has set the basis for a variety of methodologies that produce high-throughput datasets identifying the different players that define gene regulation, particularly regulation of transcription initiation and operon organization. These datasets are available in public repositories, such as the Gene Expression Omnibus, or ArrayExpress. However, accessing and navigating such a wealth of data is not straightforward.

Perfect Match Genomic Landscape strategy: Refinement and customization of reference genomes.

When addressing a genomic question, having a reliable and adequate reference genome is of utmost importance. This drives the necessity to refine and customize reference genomes (RGs). Our laboratory has recently developed a strategy, the Perfect Match Genomic Landscape (PMGL), to detect variation between genomes [K.

PulmonDB: a curated lung disease gene expression database.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) have contrasting clinical and pathological characteristics and interesting whole-genome transcriptomic profiles. However, data from public repositories are difficult to reprocess and reanalyze. Here, we present PulmonDB, a web-based database (http://pulmondb.

VCF/Plotein: visualization and prioritization of genomic variants from human exome sequencing projects.

Motivation: Identifying disease-causing variants from exome sequencing projects remains a challenging task that often requires bioinformatics expertise. Here we describe a user-friendly graphical application that allows medical professionals and bench biologists to prioritize and visualize genetic variants from human exome sequencing data.

Results: We have implemented VCF/Plotein, a graphical, fully interactive web application able to display exome sequencing data in VCF format.

Prediction and identification of recurrent genomic rearrangements that generate chimeric chromosomes in .

Genomes are dynamic structures. Different mechanisms participate in the generation of genomic rearrangements. One of them is nonallelic homologous recombination (NAHR).

Using RegulonDB, the Escherichia coli K-12 Gene Regulatory Transcriptional Network Database.

In RegulonDB, for over 25 years, we have been gathering knowledge by manual curation from original scientific literature on the regulation of transcription initiation and genome organization in transcription units of the Escherichia coli K-12 genome. This unit describes six basic protocols that can serve as a guiding introduction to the main content of the current version (v9.4) of this electronic resource.

A Perfect Match Genomic Landscape Provides a Unified Framework for the Precise Detection of Variation in Natural and Synthetic Haploid Genomes.

We present a conceptually simple, sensitive, precise, and essentially nonstatistical solution for the analysis of genome variation in haploid organisms. The generation of a Perfect Match Genomic Landscape (PMGL), which computes intergenome identity with single nucleotide resolution, reveals signatures of variation wherever a query genome differs from a reference genome. Such signatures encode the precise location of different types of variants, including single nucleotide variants, deletions, insertions, and amplifications, effectively introducing the concept of a general signature of variation.

Extracting regulatory networks of Escherichia coli from RegulonDB.

RegulonDB contains the largest and currently best-known data set on transcriptional regulation in a single free-living organism, that of Escherichia coli K-12 (Gama-Castro et al. Nucleic Acids Res 36:D120-D124, 2008). This organized knowledge has been the gold standard for the implementation of bioinformatic predictive methods on gene regulation in bacteria (Collado-Vides et al.
