Nucleic Acid Research Database (NAR DATABASE)
Criteria for selection of NAR Database
Consists a semi-automated procedure which had set in motion and author had devised.
Consideration of so-called ‘boutique’ databases, covering relatively narrow topics
Data werehouses, portals, cross-platform search tools and visualization tools
Web-accessible databases that offer carefully curated data that are not available elsewhere
Extention with convenient search tools with easy to use visualization
The database has a large utility to scientific community
Wide scope and annually updated database
Free access database
Types of Databases Used and Why It Is Useful
InterPro
Database that consisit of protein families, domains and functional sites proteins can be applied to new protein sequences.
Database that consist of proteins sequences and analysis.
Database of enzyme information system representing one of the most comprehensive enzyme repositories
SWISS-MODEL Repository
a database of annotated 3-dimensional comparative proteins structure model generated by automated homology-modelling pipeline Swiss-model
Structural Classification of Proteins (SCOPe)
Contains proteins structural domains based on similarities of structures and amino acid sequences
Comprehensive description of proteins structural, proteins folds, superfamilies and families statistics.
Protein Data Bank (PDB)
Database that contains biomolecular structure and protein domain ( structural data of macromolecules)
3-Dimensional structural data of large biological molecules
NCBI Protein database
Sequences collections, contains proteins translation from annotated coding regions where has ability to determine bioogical structure and functions.
UniProt
Resources of protein sequences and contain large amount of biological functional information of proteins.
