QUERY_WIN

QUERY_WIN provides programmatic and remote access to ACNUC biological sequence databases, enabling retrieval of nucleotide and protein sequences for genomic and comparative analyses.

Key Features:

• Comprehensive Database Access: Accesses sequence records and annotations from ACNUC-hosted databases including EMBL, GenBank, RefSeq, UniProt, HOVERGEN, HOGENOM, Ensembl, and Genome Reviews.
• Sequence Retrieval: Retrieves nucleotide and protein sequences along with associated annotations from the ACNUC collection.
• Remote Access Protocol: Connects to ACNUC databases via a defined remote access protocol for querying and data transfer.
• Programming APIs: Exposes APIs implemented in C, Python, and R for programmatic querying and integration into bioinformatics workflows.
• Comparative Genomics Support: Enables comparative genomics analyses using HOVERGEN and HOGENOM to explore homologous protein-coding gene families across species.

Scientific Applications:

• Sequence Retrieval: Querying and extracting nucleotide and protein sequences from major public and specialized databases.
• Comparative Genomics: Analyzing homologous genes across organisms to investigate evolutionary relationships and functional conservation using HOVERGEN and HOGENOM.
• Genome Analysis: Accessing genomic data from Ensembl and Genome Reviews for analyses of vertebrate and prokaryotic genomes.

Methodology:

Uses a remote access protocol to connect to ACNUC databases and provides APIs in C, Python, and R for programmatic querying and data extraction.
