Abstract
With the advent of age of big data and advances in high throughput technology accessing data has become one of the most important step in the entire knowledge discovery process. Most users are not able to decipher the query result that is obtained when non specific keywords or a combination of keywords are used. Intelligent access to sequence and structure databases (IASSD) is a desktop application for windows operating system. It is written in Java and utilizes the web service description language (wsdl) files and Jar files of E-utilities of various databases such as National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) and Protein Data Bank (PDB). Apart from that IASSD allows the user to view protein structure using a JMOL application which supports conditional editing.AvailabilityThe Jar file is freely available through e-mail from the corresponding author.
Highlights
Biology today is a highly information rich science, necessitating the use of bioinformatics and computational techniques
Cross domain access to biological data and information followed by management, organization and integration is needed for the successful conversion to in silico biology
Biologists and other scientific research workers need to be provided with integrated platforms which would shorten the time for query processing as well as provide apt and intelligent answers to the queries
Summary
Biology today is a highly information rich science, necessitating the use of bioinformatics and computational techniques. Cross domain access to biological data and information followed by management, organization and integration is needed for the successful conversion to in silico biology. Quite a few interfaces have been designed for accessing and retrieving biological data in the past [1].
