Biological Database
Nucleotide database
NCBI(gene bank)
The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) is part of the United States National Library of Medicine (NLM), a branch of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
DDBJ
The DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) (1) is a public database of nucleotide sequences established at the National Institute of Genetics (NIG). Since 1987, the DDBJ has been collecting annotated nucleotide sequences as its traditional database
service.

Protein database
The other well known and extensively used protein database is SWISS-PROT. Like the PIR-PSD, this curated proteins sequence database also provides a high level of annotation
-
trEMBL
TrEMBL (for Translated EMBL) is a computer-annotated protein sequence database that is released as a supplement to SWISS-PROT. It contains the translation of all coding sequences present in the EMBL Nucleotide database, which have not been fully annotated. Thus it may contain the sequence of proteins that are never expressed and never actually identified in the
organisms
Bioinformatics
Role
Bioinformatics has become an important part of
many areas of biology. ... It plays a role in the textual mining of biological literature and the development of biological and gene ontologies to organize and query biological data. It plays a role in the analysis of gene and protein expression and regulation.
Definition
Bioinformatics combines different fields of study,
including computer sciences, molecular biology,
biotechnology, statistics, and engineering
A biological database is a large, organized body of persistent data, usually associated with computerized software designed to update, query, and retrieve components of the data stored within the system.
