Constituting a receptor-ligand information base from quality-enriched data

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:401843

Many different resources are needed for analyzing relevant experimental data in drug design. Currently this data is difficult to access, because it is stored in heterogeneous data-bases, spread over many platforms, poorly interconnected, incomplete, erroneous, or just not electronically available. In order to establish a high quality database for drug design we have developed a new demand-driven methodology for integrating and semantically enriching heterogeneous data from different research areas and for migrating the data into an object-oriented database management system. In this way we have established a database containing well-prepared, relevant data needed for drug design and offering the advantages of modern database technology, like a comprehensive object-oriented data model, a flexible declarative query language and support for persistent storage and sharing of data in a multi-user environment.
