The Nucleic Acid Database: A Resource for Nucleic Acid Science

The Nucleic Acid Database: A resource for nucleic acid science.

The Nucleic Acid Database (NDB) distributes information about nucleic acid-containing structures. Here the information content of the database as well as the query capabilities are described. A summary of how the technology developed by this project has been used to develop other macromolecular databases is given.

Thermodynamic Database for Protein-Nucleic Acid Interactions

Protein-nucleic acid interaction plays an essential role in the regulation of gene expression. Structural and binding information provides insight into the mechanism of protein-nucleic acid recognition. Although there are structural databases for protein-nucleic acid complexes, there exists no database for protein-nucleic acid binding. Thus, we have decided to develop the Thermodynamic Database...

NAPP: the Nucleic Acid Phylogenetic Profile Database

Nucleic acid phylogenetic profiling (NAPP) classifies coding and non-coding sequences in a genome according to their pattern of conservation across other genomes. This procedure efficiently distinguishes clusters of functional non-coding elements in bacteria, particularly small RNAs and cis-regulatory RNAs, from other conserved sequences. In contrast to other non-coding RNA detection pipelines,...

The Nucleic Acid Database: Present and Future

The Nucleic Acid Database is a relational database containing information about three-dimensional nucleic acid structures. The methods used for data processing, structure validation, database management and information retrieval, as well as the various services available via the World Wide Web, are described. Plans for the future include greater reliance on the Macromolecular Crystallographic I...
