The Make 2D-DB II package: conversion of federated two-dimensional gel electrophoresis databases into a relational format and interconnection of distributed databases.

摘要

The Make 2D-DB tool has been previously developed to help build federated two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) databases on one's own web site. The purpose of our work is to extend the strength of the first package and to build a more efficient environment. Such an environment should be able to fulfill the different needs and requirements arising from both the growing use of 2-DE techniques and the increasing amount of distributed experimental data.
