1 BioinfoGRID Project Milanesi Luciano National Research Council Institute t of Biomedical Technologies, Milan, Italy luciano.milanesi@itb.cnr.it Milanesi Luciano EGEE User Forum, Clermont-Ferrand, France February, 2008

2 Networks of resources The potential of new biological and biomedical technological platforms in connection with HPC and GRID technology will be particularly useful to deal with the increasing amount, complexity, and heterogeneity of biological and biomedical data. Bioinformatics applications for ehealth have become an ideal research area where computer scientists can apply and further develop new intelligent computation methods, in both experimental and theoretical cases. Milanesi Luciano BioinfoGRID Symposium, Milan December

5 Objective of the BioinfoGRID project BioinfoGRID Objectives Milanesi Luciano BioinfoGRID Symposium, Milan December

6 Interaction with related projects At present the BioinfoGRID project has established co-operations with the following projects initiative: EGEE BELIEF EMBRACE EUCHINAGRID EUMEDGRID EELA DILIGENT ICEAGE LITBIO LIBI HEALTHGRID WISDOM Milanesi Luciano BioinfoGRID Symposium, Milan December

10 WP2 Proteomics Applications Perform functional protein analysis in GRID by using the functional protein domain annotations on large protein families using GRID and related databases. All 518 human protein kinases and 5129 proteins from non-redundant chainset of Protein DataBank were analyzed with InterProScan applications Milanesi Luciano BioinfoGRID Symposium, Milan December

11 WP2 Proteomics Applications Protein surface calculation in GRID. : the grid was used to compute the volumetric description of the proteins obtaining a precise representation of the corresponding surface. Then protein interactions could be quickly screened by the mean of surface analysis. The ProSite domains were analyzed all-against-all ATP-E against its inhibitor Collagen against integrin Milanesi Luciano BioinfoGRID Symposium, Milan December

12 WP3 Transcriptomics applications Phylogenetics : Reconstructing ti the evolutionary history of a group of taxa is major research thrust in computational biology and a standard part of exploratory sequence analysis. An evolutionary history not only gives relationships among taxa, but also an important tool for inferring structural, physiological, and biochemical properties of sequences from other similar sequences, and reconstruction of tissue evolution. Milanesi Luciano BioinfoGRID Symposium, Milan December

13 WP4 Databases & Genomics Applications Work Package 4: Databases and Functional Genomics Applications Testing the main biological databases in the Grid environment optimization on storage space, bandwidth, download time Testing performances and scalability of database-based applications performances/scalability testing according to various use cases and submission algorithms 1 challenge: Gene Analogous Finder 55+ years of computation on a single CPU, not feasible in a local l environment. Milanesi Luciano BioinfoGRID Symposium, Milan December 2007

14 WP4 Databases handling GridDBManager Automatic Updater Timer based monitoring and update of Grid ported databases Adaptive replica manager Constantly adapts the number of replicas in relation to the usage of each database in the last 10 days Version Regression Keeps patches on the Grid for allowing regression of each hdatabase to an earlier version Milanesi Luciano BioinfoGRID Symposium, Milan December 2007
