The NCBI houses a series of databases relevant to biotechnology and biomedicine and is an important resource for bioinformatics tools and services. Major databases include GenBank for DNA sequences and PubMed, a bibliographic database for biomedical literature. Other databases include the NCBI Epigenomics database.
The Database Issue of NAR is freely available, and categorizes many of the public biological databases. A companion database to the issue called the Online Molecular Biology Database Collection lists 1,380 online databases. [15] Other collections of databases exist such as MetaBase and the Bioinformatics Links Collection. [16] [17]
Logo Expasy 2020. Expasy is an online bioinformatics resource operated by the SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics.It is an extensible and integrative portal which provides access to over 160 databases and software tools and supports a range of life science and clinical research areas, from genomics, proteomics and structural biology, to evolution and phylogeny, systems biology and medical ...
Bioinformatics is the name given to these mathematical and computing approaches used to glean understanding of biological processes. Common activities in bioinformatics include mapping and analyzing DNA and protein sequences, aligning DNA and protein sequences to compare them, and creating and viewing 3-D models of protein structures.
Version 2.0 was released in 2001 and included the capability to link to information available in other databases. [5] Version 3.0 (2002) expanded the database from physical/biochemical interactions to also include genetic interactions. [8] Version 3.5 (2004) included a refined user-interface that aimed to simplify information retrieval. [7]
The UniProt database is an example of a protein sequence database. As of 2013 it contained over 40 million sequences and is growing at an exponential rate. [ 1 ] Historically, sequences were published in paper form, but as the number of sequences grew, this storage method became unsustainable.
The Database of Macromolecular Motions is a bioinformatics database and software-as-a-service tool that attempts to categorize macromolecular motions, sometimes also known as conformational change. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] It was originally developed by Mark B. Gerstein , Werner Krebs , and Nat Echols in the Molecular Biophysics & Biochemistry ...
