What is the EMBL Nucleotide Sequencing database

This is an important presentation about the EMBL database and how can it be useful.

1. Examples and parts of the EMBL database Although EMBL is an information-rich data, some of the projects and divisions of the database are as follow: CON division: CON division is a new developed database division which includes complete genomes as well as some other long sequences. Also, each CON division has a specific accession number that provides information about the construction of the project. Draft human genome: it is project that is funded by 5 sequencing centers; the focus of the project was producing a draft version of the human genome.

2. Applications used to submit data sequences Two major sources are the contributors of the EMBL database. Scientists: they can directly submit the related data to the databases. Genome project groups: they contribute to the database by producing huge amounts of nucleotide sequence data. Applications: the researchers can use two important tools to submit the data. WEBIN: researchers can submit the data using internet. SEQUIN: it is a software tool that helps researchers in submitting the data into the EMBL database.

3. The format and structure of the files of the database EMBL flat-file format: it is a file format that is comprised of a series of strictly controlled line types. Supported by many software packages. Consists of four important blocks of data: Descriptions and identifiers. Citations. Features. Sequence.

4. Materials and Procedure. Materials: internet and some specific software such as SEQUIN. Procedure: open the EMBL link. Answer the questions. A screen will open for submission. Webin submission service will open up. Account ID. Click of new submission .
