MitoMiner v3.1, an update on the mitochondrial proteomics database

Open access
Smith, Anthony C., Robinson, Alan J.·2016·Nucleic Acids Research

Abstract

Mitochondrial proteins remain the subject of intense research interest due to their implication in an increasing number of different conditions including mitochondrial and metabolic disease, cancer, and neuromuscular degenerative and age-related disorders. However, the mitochondrial proteome has yet to be accurately and comprehensively defined, despite many studies. To support mitochondrial research, we developed MitoMiner (http://mitominer.mrc-mbu.cam.ac.uk), a freely accessible mitochondrial proteomics database. MitoMiner integrates different types of subcellular localisation evidence with protein information from public resources, and so provides a comprehensive central resource for data on mitochondrial protein localisation. Here we report important updates to the database including the addition of subcellular immunofluorescent staining results from the Human Protein Atlas, computational predictions of mitochondrial targeting sequences, and additional large-scale mass-spectrometry and GFP tagging data sets. This evidence is shared across the 12 species in MitoMiner (now including Schizosaccharomyces pombe) by homology mapping. MitoMiner provides multiple ways of querying the data including simple text searches, predefined queries and custom queries created using the interactive QueryBuilder. For remote programmatic access, API's are available for several programming languages. This combination of data and flexible querying makes MitoMiner a unique platform to investigate mitochondrial proteins, with application in mitochondrial research and prioritising candidate mitochondrial disease genes.

  • Using MitoMiner 4.0 and the Gene Ontology "Mitochondrion" category, 953 proteins associated with mitochondria were identified.

    “Using the MitoMiner 4.0 database [73] and the Gene Ontology “Mitochondrion” category [74, 75], we identified 953 proteins associated with mitochondria; the levels of 42% of those proteins were significantly changed by apoE4 expression, again with equal numbers increased and decreased (Fig. 5A).”

    From Neuronal Apolipoprotein E4 Expression Results in Proteome-Wide Alterations and Compromises Bioenergetic Capacity by Disrupting Mitochondrial Function (2019) · cites this paper as [73]

    The Introduction identifies MitoMiner as a database for investigating mitochondrial proteins and says it incorporates Gene Ontology annotations. But this paper describes MitoMiner v3.1, not the cited version 4.0. The 953-protein count is presented as the citing authors’ own result, not a finding attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
