Abstract
The Bioinformation and DNA Data Bank of Japan Center (DDBJ Center, https://www.ddbj.nig.ac.jp) provides public databases that cover a wide range of fields in life sciences. As a founding member of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC), the DDBJ Center accepts and distributes nucleotide sequence data ranging from raw reads to assembled and annotated sequences with the National Center for Biotechnology Information and the European Bioinformatics Institute. Besides INSDC databases, the DDBJ Center provides databases for functional genomics (Genomic Expression Archive), metabolomics (MetaboBank), human genetic variations (TogoVar-repository) and human genetic and phenotypic data (Japanese Genotype-phenotype Archive). These database systems have been built on the National Institute of Genetics supercomputer, which is also a platform for the DDBJ Group Cloud (DGC) services for sharing and analysis of pre-publication data among research groups. This paper reports recent updates on the databases and the services of the DDBJ Center, highlighting the DGC service.
