RESUMO
UNLABELLED: Molecular biology databases are an integral part of biological research. To date, many databases were established with varied options to access associated biological data. Depending on the data being annotated, some are architecturally similar while others are specialized. In order to provide a partial solution to data integration, we report Database of Databases (DoD2007), constructed using html and javascript. The database has a web-based user interface with simple global search, specific database search, keyword help as well as links to abstracts, full-text and database home pages. Majority of data were derived form Nucleic Acids Research database issue and other published resources. The current release includes 15 categories with updated descriptions and links to 1082 databases, of which, 209 are new entries. New databases included in this issue are represented with '+' sign before the name and a '*' symbol provided for those that remained silent. AVAILABILITY: The database is freely available at http://www.progenebio.in/DoD/index.htm.
RESUMO
UNLABELLED: Medicinal plants used to treat hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic conditions are of considerable interest to ethno-botanical community as they are recognized to contain valuable medicinal properties in different parts of the plant. The active principles of many plant species with desired properties are isolated to cure ailments such as diabetes type-1 and type-2, respectively. Here, we describe DiaMedBase, a database containing information of medicinal plants for diabetes. AVAILABILITY: http://www.progenebio.in/DMP/DMP.htm.
RESUMO
DoD2006, an updated version of Database of Databases is an online resource maintained collectively by ProGene Biosciences and Department of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry, Andhra University. It links to all molecular biology databases that appeared in Nucleic Acids Research 2006 database issue. DoD2006 includes 873 databases, of which, 858 are derived from Nucleic Acids Research database issue and 15 are collected from In Silico Biology, Bioinformation journals and Google Scholar search. Each database has a search option, keyword help and a brief description with direct link to the database home page. The database is freely available online at http://www.progenebio.in/DoD/index.htm.
RESUMO
Database of Databases (DoD) is a collection of molecular biology databases extracted from Nucleic Acids Research, 2005 Database issue. DoD is constructed using javascript and html code. The 14 categories of 719 databases are provided with a search option, keyword help and database description linked to respective pages. Keyword help lists the search strings used to perform an individual search against categorized databases. Database description provides brief information about the database with a link to full-text article and main web page. DoD is available online and can be accessed at http://www.progenebio.in/DoD/DoD.htm.
