生物信息学相关数据库

生物信息学数据库可以分为4大类:即基因组数据库、核酸和蛋白质一级结构数据库、生物大分子三维空间结构数据库，当前研究比较热点的集中于基因组、miRNA、LncRNA、circRNA等分子的查询，以及蛋白或蛋白修饰变化（甲基化、乙酰化等）与DNA启动子、miRNA、LncRNA、circRNA的互作，LncRNA与miRNA、mRNA、circRNA等相互的结合调控，目前各种数据库大概有上百种，没有系统性针对性的数据库，以下是我们对数据的整理，通过数据库查询分类、数据库功能及用途、示例结合分析、数据库优化等这四大项，进行阐述和演示数据库的查询和使用，希望对您的实验项目有所帮助
