Evolução do IntergenicDB: banco de dados de regiões intergênicas de bactérias gram-negativas

Abstract

The IntergenicDB database has information about intergenic sequences of gram negative bactérias. It was developed by the research team of Bioinformatics from University of Caxias do Sul, The tool called MMDBImportTool, was created to populate the database with data extracted from the public databases Genbank and Kegg. In the last years, a few changes had occurred on the bacteria's archives available by Genbank. Thereby, there is a need to verify if the data stored in IntergenicDB are consistent. Based on that, this monograph had the objective to develop an evolution of the importation tool MMDBImportTool. It was realized the need to remodel a few procedures of the tool, to be possible to do the new database load. After the development and documentation of the MMDBImportTool, a new data load was made in the database. The new data load has 118 organisms, 18 families and 9209 genes. [resumo fornecido pelo autor]
