T3DB -- Toxin and Toxin-Target Database

URL:

http://www.t3db.org/

What you can do:

Find biological, chemical and mechanistic information about clinically relevant, commonly encountered or important toxins.

Highlights:

T3DB is a resource that compiles comprehensive information about common or ubiquitous toxins and their toxin-targets into a single electronic repository.
It currently contains over 2900 small molecule and peptide toxins, 1300 toxin-targets and more than 33,000 toxin-target associations.
Each T3DB record (ToxCard) contains over 80 data fields providing detailed information on chemical properties and descriptors, toxicity values, protein and gene sequences (for both targets and toxins), molecular and cellular interaction data, toxicological data, mechanistic information and references.
This information has been manually extracted and manually verified from numerous sources, including other electronic databases, government documents, textbooks and scientific journals.
A key focus of the T3DB is on providing 'depth' over 'breadth' with detailed descriptions, mechanisms of action, and information on toxins and toxin-targets.
T3DB is fully searchable and supports extensive text, sequence, chemical structure and relational query searches.
