Abstract

Motivation: The increasing availability of biological databases on the World-Wide Web and hypertext links between them has made a wealth of information easily accessible to biologists. Additional retrieval capabilities can be achieved by storing explicitly specified biological relationships between different entities as discrete database entries.

Results: We have built CySPID, a prototype database about the cytoskeleton that explores the approach of explicitly representing biological relationships. The stored relationships are displayed along with other retrieved information, can be used to make hyperlinks to related entities, and can be used to search for entities with specified properties. CySPID is extensible in that new types of relationships may be created without altering the database schema.

Availability: CySPID is available for public use (http://ycmi.med.yale.edu/cyspid/). The CGI scripts used by CySPID are available upon request.

使用显式表示的生物关系进行数据库导航和通过万维网进行搜索。

动机:世界范围内越来越多的生物数据库和它们之间的超文本链接使得生物学家可以很容易地获取丰富的信息。通过将不同实体之间明确指定的生物关系存储为离散的数据库条目，可以实现额外的检索功能。结果:我们建立了CySPID，一个关于细胞骨架的原型数据库，探索了明确表示生物关系的方法。存储的关系与其他检索到的信息一起显示，可用于建立到相关实体的超链接，并可用于搜索具有指定属性的实体。CySPID是可扩展的，因为可以在不更改数据库模式的情况下创建新类型的关系。可用性:CySPID可供公众使用(http://ycmi.med.yale.edu/cyspid/)。CySPID使用的CGI脚本可根据要求提供。
