In the field of bioinformatics, a sequence database is a large collection of computerized ("digital") nucleic acid sequences, protein sequences,
or other sequences stored on a computer. A database can include
sequences from only one organism (e.g., a database for all proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae), or it can include sequences from all organisms whose DNA has been sequenced.
Some widely used sequence databases are:
- Nucleic acid sequence databases: GenBank, EMBL, DDBJ
- Protein sequence databases: Uniprot-KB: SWISS-PROT, TrEMBL, PIR-PSD
- Repositories for high throughput genomic sequences: EST, STS GSS, etc.
- enome Databases at NCBI, EBI, TIGR, SANGER
- Viral Genomes.
- Archeal and Bacterial Genomes.
- Eukaryotic genomes.
