Human Protein Reference Database (HPRD)
The Human Protein Reference Database represents a centralized platform to visually depict and integrate information pertaining to domain architecture, post-translational modifications, interaction networks and disease association for each protein in the human proteome. This database gives you a wide overview on your proteins locations, domains, interactions and more.

Protein Data Bank (PDB)
The Protein Data Bank (PDB) archive is the single worldwide repository of information about the 3D structures of large biological molecules, including proteins and nucleic acids. Managed by the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (RCSB) it is freely and publicly available to the global community. Want to see how your protein looks in 3D? All structural information and interactions can be found with this webpage.

GEO Gene Expression Omnibus
Looking for transcriptomics, RNAseq, ChIP-seq data and more? GEO has them all. GEO is a public functional genomics data repository for array- and sequence-based data. Great tools are available to help users query and download experiments, compare experimental groups and find profiles of expression/regulation for your gene(s) of interest.
