The MITOP database http://websvr.mips.biochem.mpg. de/proj/medgen/mitop/
consolidates information on both nuclear- and mitochondrial-encoded genes
and their proteins. The five species files- Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Mus
musculus, Caenorhabditis elegans, Neurospora crassa and Homo sapiens
-include annotated data derived from a variety of online resources and the
literature. A wide spectrum of search facilities is given in the
interelated sections 'Gene catalogues', 'Protein catalogues', 'Homologies',
'Pathways and metabolism', and 'Human disease catalogue' including
extensive references and hyperlinks for each entry. Precomputed FASTA
searches using all the MITOP yeast protein entries and a list of the best
EST hits with graphical cluster alignments related to the yeast reference
sequence are presented. The MITOP orthologue tables with cross-listing to
all the protein entries for each species in the database facilitate
investigations into interspecies homology. A program (MITOPROT) is
available to identify mitochondrial targeting sequences and graphical
depictions of several important mitochondrial processes are included. The
'Human disease catalogue' lists a total of 101 disorders related to
mitochondrial protein abnormalities, sorted by clinical criteria and age of
onset.
