This paper describes the databases and services of the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI). In collaboration with DDBJ and GenBank/NCBI, the EBI maintains and distributes the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database, Europe's primary nucleotide sequence data resource. The EBI also maintains and distributes the SWISS-PROT Protein Sequence Database, in collaboration with Amos Bairoch of the University of Geneva. Over thirty additional specialist molecular biology databases, as well as software and documentation of interest to molecular biologists, are also available. The EBI network services include database searching, entry retrieval, and sequence similarity searching facilities.
本文介绍了欧洲生物信息学研究所(EBI)的数据库和服务。EBI与日本DNA数据库(DDBJ)以及GenBank/美国国立生物技术信息中心(NCBI)合作,维护并分发欧洲主要的核苷酸序列数据资源——EMBL核苷酸序列数据库。EBI还与日内瓦大学的阿莫斯·白罗什合作,维护并分发SWISS-PROT蛋白质序列数据库。另外还有三十多个专业分子生物学数据库,以及分子生物学家感兴趣的软件和文档。EBI的网络服务包括数据库搜索、条目检索和序列相似性搜索工具。
