What is a data base
A structured collection: of data held in
computer storage; esp. one that
incorporates software to make it accessible
in a variety of ways; transf., any large
collection of information.
database management: the organization
and manipulation of data in a database.
database management system
(DBMS): a software package that
provides all the functions required for
database management. Primary
databases: experimental results directly
Nucleotide and protein sequence database

 Nucleotide Databases:
 EMBL( European Molecular Biology
Laboratory).
 GenBank.
 DDBJ–DNA Data Bank of Japan.
 Protein Databases:
 SWISS-PROT, PIR (sequences).
 PROSITE, PRINTS(sequence motifs.)
 HSSP, FSSP(classification, alignment).
 PDB (3-D structure).
Software Tools for Sequence Analysis
What might we want
to know about a Nucleotide sequence?

 Is this sequence similar to any known genes? How close


is the best match? Significance?

 What do we know about that gene?


 Genomic (chromosomal location, allelic information, etc.)

 Evolutionary information:
 Is this gene found in other organisms?

 What is its taxonomic tree?


 Recognition sites might be common:
 restriction enzymes, start sequences, stop sequences, other
regulatory sequences.
 Types of Mutations
 - Insertions
 - Deletions
 - Substitutions'
PRIMER DISEGIN
What might we want
to know about a proteins sequence?
