List of biological databases

[2] Omics Discovery Index can be used to browse and search several biological databases.

They are capable of merging information from different sources and making it available in a new and more convenient form, or with an emphasis on a particular disease or organism.

All three accept nucleotide sequence submissions, and then exchange new and updated data on a daily basis to achieve optimal synchronisation between them.

(See also: List of proteins in the human body) Several publicly available data repositories and resources have been developed to support and manage protein related information, biological knowledge discovery and data-driven hypothesis generation.

(Roughly ~1200 already have Wikipedia articles - the Gene Wiki - about them) if we are Including splice variants, there could be as many as 500,000 unique human proteins[16] Numerous databases collect information about species and other taxonomic categories.
