Databases hosted by MSI
The Minnesota Supercomputing Institute hosts and develops numerous databases that users will be able to utilize. They include public and project-specific databases that serve various fields. Representative examples include:
- Flat file public databases (genbank, PDB, Uniprot),
- NCBI BLAST sequence databases (nt, nr, swissprot etc.),
- Genome databases (Human, Mouse, Rat, Drosophila, Yeast, E. coli etc.)
Many of these databases are integrated into specific software for researchers. Public databases are updated regularly. MSI staff provide hardware, software, and advanced user support for maintaining and using these databases.
