drfindresource

drfindresource locates and facilitates utilization of public molecular biology databases within the EMBOSS framework to support database-driven analyses.

Key Features:

• Integration with EMBOSS: Integrates with the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite (EMBOSS) to operate within EMBOSS libraries and conventions.
• Discovery of public databases: Identifies relevant public molecular biology databases for downstream analyses.
• Database configuration and management: Supports configuration and management of databases under EMBOSS for use in analyses.
• EMBOSS C libraries: Leverages EMBOSS C programming libraries to enable development and extension of bioinformatics applications.
• Customization and extensibility: Supports ACD file development and enables API programming, wrapping, and porting of applications within EMBOSS.

Scientific Applications:

• Molecular biology research: Enables selection of public databases to support analyses such as genomic analysis and protein structure prediction.
• Tool development: Facilitates creation and extension of bioinformatics applications using EMBOSS C libraries and ACD files.

Methodology:

Integration with EMBOSS; use of EMBOSS C programming libraries; ACD file development; API programming, wrapping, and porting of applications; database configuration under EMBOSS.
