Conclusion
The TEMBLOR project aims to provide a highly integrated view of genomic and proteomic data by improving data integration and accessibility.
Supporting Evidence
- Rapid progress in sequencing has led to the publication of around 70 complete genomes.
- The TEMBLOR project is funded by the European Union and started in January 2002.
- New resources for various types of biological data will be created or moved to production status.
- Efforts for standardisation and international data exchange are central to the TEMBLOR project.
Takeaway
Scientists are working on a project called TEMBLOR to make it easier to find and use lots of genetic and protein information from different databases all in one place.
Limitations
The integration of external data collections can lead to outdated information and requires significant maintenance efforts.
