| مستخلص: | Recent years have seen an explosive growth in biological data, which is often not published in a conventional sense but rather deposited in a database. This trend and the need for computational analyses of the data make databases essential tools for biological research. Data from a variety of sources, covering a wide range of biological information, are stored in different, often quite specialized, databases. The provision of such databases as useful resources for the scientific community is a demanding task since the data not only have to be stored in a consistent way, but also have to be easily accessible and highly integrated with other databases. Furthermore, it is necessary to provide users with effective tools to search the databases and to analyze the data. At the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI), we develop and maintain a number of biological databases and provide a variety of bioinformatics tools to facilitate database and similarity searches and data analysis. In this review, we will provide examples of the core resources maintained at the EBI and summarize important issues of database management of such resources. |
