- Basically, databases for proteins and genomes are information portals to biological macromolecular structures. They serve as tools and resources for studying the structures of biological macromolecules and their relationships to sequence, function, and disease. Below is a link for a protein database that explains this in a more detailed way.
- databases are repositories of known information about proteins, genes, DNA sequences, etc. I used GenBank a lot in my research when I'm trying to develop primers for particular genes in organisms where not much is known about their genome. GenBank can be found here : http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/
