We have developed a relational laboratory database system, adapted to the daily book-keeping needs of laboratories that must keep track of information acquired on hundreds or thousands of clones in an effective and user-friendly fashion. Data, whether final or related to experiments in progress, can be accessed in many different ways, e.g. by clone name, by gene, by experiment or through DNA sequence. Updating, import and export of results is made easier by specially developed tools. This system, in network version, serves several groups in our Institute and (over the Internet) elsewhere, and is instrumental in collaborative studies based on expression profiling. It can be used in many similar situations involving progressiveaccumulation of information on sets of clones or related objects.
The validation, enrichment and organization of the data stored in PDB files is essential for those data to be used accurately and efficiently for modelling, experimental design and the determination of molecular interactions. The Iditis protein structure database has been designed to allow the widest possible range of queries to be performed across all available protein structures. The Iditis database is the most comprehensive protein structure resource currently available, and contains over 500 fields of information describing all publicly deposited protein structures. A custom-written database engine and graphical user interface provide a natural and simple environment for the construction of searches for complex sequence- and structure-based motifs. Extensions and specialized interfaces allow the data generated by the database to used in conjunction with a wide range of applications.
The Nucleic Acid Database (NDB) distributes information about nucleic acid-containing structures. Here the information content of the database as well as the query capabilities are described. A summary of how the technology developed by this project has been used to develop other macromolecular databases is given.
