چکیده

MOTIVATION Here we report on recent developments at the EBI SRS server (http://srs.ebi.ac.uk). SRS has become an integration system for both data retrieval and sequence analysis applications. The EBI SRS server is a primary gateway to major databases in the field of molecular biology produced and supported at EBI as well as European public access point to the MEDLINE database provided by US National Library of Medicine (NLM). It is a reference server for latest developments in data and application integration. The new additions include: concept of virtual databases, integration of XML databases like the Integrated Resource of Protein Domains and Functional Sites (InterPro), Gene Ontology (GO), MEDLINE, Metabolic pathways, etc., user friendly data representation in 'Nice views', SRSQuickSearch bookmarklets. AVAILABILITY SRS6 is a licensed product of LION Bioscience AG freely available for academics. The EBI SRS server (http://srs.ebi.ac.uk) is a free central resource for molecular biology data as well as a reference server for the latest developments in data integration.

EMBL-Align: a new public nucleotide and amino acid multiple sequence alignment database

UNLABELLED The submission of multiple sequence alignment data to EMBL has grown 30-fold in the past 10 years, creating a problem of archiving them. The EBI has developed a new public database of multiple sequence alignments called EMBL-Align. It has a dedicated web-based submission tool, Webin-Align. Together they represent a comprehensive data management solution for alignment data. Webin-Alig...

The SRS 3D module: integrating structures, sequences and features

UNLABELLED In this paper we present SRS 3D, a new service that allows users to easily and rapidly find all related structures for a given target sequence; structures can then be viewed together with sequences, alignments and sequence features (currently from UniProt, InterPro and PDB). Extensive user feedback confirms that SRS 3D is intuitive and useful especially for those not expert in struct...

A Tcl-based SRS v.4 interface

A new SRS (Sequence Retrieval System) user interface has been developed for SRS v.4. Key features are the support of simple character-oriented (ASCII, VT100) terminals by coding in Tcl augmented by some dedicated Curses calls, support of graphics terminals in an X-Windows version by using the Tk extension to Tcl, and support of a client/server environment by using the TDP extension to Tcl. The ...

Using the Molecular Biology Data

Introduction The goal of this article is to introduce the most important of the different molecular biology databases available to researchers. Recent advances in technology have resulted in an information explosion. This has risen the challenge of providing an integrated access method to these data, capable of querying cross-referenced but highly heterogeneous databases. The SRS (Etzold, Ulyan...
