What else can I help you with?
What kind of information can someone take from NCBI?
The National Center for Biotechnology Information, or the NCBI, is a branch of the United States National Library of Medicine, or the NLM. With access to the NCBI, one can't acquire very much unless one has a patient's medical information.
What kind of research does NCBI conduct?
NCBI (The National Center for Biotechnology Information) conducts scientific research. Specifically, they do research on genomic and biomedical information to advance our knowledge in health and science.
What is the main differences between ncbi and uniprot databases?
NCBI primarily focuses on nucleotide sequences and genomic information, while UniProt is dedicated to protein sequences and functional information. NCBI provides a wide range of biological data beyond proteins, such as DNA and RNA sequences, while UniProt focuses solely on protein data. Additionally, UniProt offers manually curated information on protein function, structure, and interactions, while NCBI provides a broader range of biological data sources under one umbrella.
Can you cite an NCBI article that discusses the impact of climate change on biodiversity?
One NCBI article titled "Climate Change and Biodiversity: Impacts and Adaptation" by Parmesan and Yohe (2003) discusses the effects of climate change on biodiversity.
Why you use NCBI database in bioinformatics?
NCBI database is commonly used in bioinformatics because it provides a comprehensive collection of biological data, including nucleotide sequences, protein sequences, and genetic information. Researchers can access and analyze this data to perform various bioinformatics studies, such as sequence alignment, phylogenetic analysis, and functional annotation. Additionally, NCBI tools and services allow for efficient retrieval, storage, and analysis of biological data for diverse research purposes.
What is the Scientific name for Cynaobacteria?
Here is a good place to start looking: http://www.bacterio.cict.fr/classifcyano.html#ncbi
How many bacteria strains or substrains have been recorded in NCBI taxonomic classification?
There are thousands of bacterial strains and substrains recorded in the NCBI taxonomic classification, with new ones being discovered and added regularly. The exact number is difficult to determine due to the continually evolving nature of bacterial taxonomy and research.
What does NCBI Blast provide as searching tools?
NCBI Blast is an acronym for Basic Local Alignment Search Tool. It is used to find areas of local similarity between protein sequences. It is used to decide if there is any statistical significance between matches.
How many visually impaired people are there in Ireland?
It's a hard one to put a figure on however the NCBI (National Council for the Blind) lists 14,000 people using their services.
Where can one find information about sepsis?
One could find information about sepsis or blood poisoning online at various websites. The most recommended websites are 'Wikipedia', 'Mayoclinic' and 'NCBI'.
Where can one find more information about bill receptors?
One can find more information about bill receptors of the Platypus online in Wikipedia, RoyalSocietyPublishing, Reed, Biologists, Nature, NCBI, etc. among others.
Why do RefSeq accession numbers for mRNA sequences start with the letters NM in particular?
It is the reference sequence (as opposed to a genbank sequence) for an mRNA. It has been curated by the nice people at NCBI to act as a baseline for the scientific community. See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/RefSeq/RSfaq.html for further explanation.
