Bioinfo Services
From Wiki CEINGE
The bioinformatic facility aims to provide a large selection of software tools, useful in the analysis of nucleic acid and protein sequence as well as other typical biological data, such as images. The described services, are currently offered to researchers located in other institutions in the area of Napoli, including DBBM, IGB, BIOGEM, DBPCM. Most services are also made available to the research community through our public web site http://bioinfo.ceinge.unina.it, although with some limitations due to data not publicly available and to the excessive load that a public server would pose for programs requiring higher processing power.
The available tools
- The available tools include over 200 programs for DNA and protein sequence manipulation, molecular prediction, and statistical data analysis. In addition about 100 public databases are maintained and updated daily. The tools may be grouped as follows:
- Several DBs have been developed in order to help the activity of internal facilities, and their interaction with the users. The DBs offer a web interface and are generally connected to other bioinformatic analysis tools.
- the following DBS have been developed within specific research projects, and ar currently in use by the people involved. Some of them (*) have been made available to the scientfic community as a public access web site.
