چکیده
A vigorous effort has been undertaken to develop a robust and high speed network in the Asia-Pacific region which satisfies the needs of the scientific community. Consortium for Asia-Pacific Advanced Network (APAN) are established in some countries in this region. Our group, along with collaborators in Singapore and Australia, is moving towards the establishment of Asia-Pacific Bioinformatics Network (APBioNet) based on APAN. In this paper, we describe the concept of APBioNet and introduce the activities of DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) which will play an important role in APBioNet. Some salient features of APBioNet are also discussed.
