期刊简介
Database: The Journal of Biological Databases and Curation provides an open access platform for the presentation of novel ideas in database research surrounding biological information, and aims to help strengthen the bridge between database developers, curators, and users. In addition, the journal will provide a platform for the description of novel advances in the field of biocuration and promote the use of information from biological databases to assist in the planning and design of original research projects. Biocuration involves the translation of information relevant to biology and medicine, into an organized format, typically as a database, which enables the integration of scientific literature as well as large datasets such that information is accurately represented and readily accessible, as a source of information for scientists, and as a basis for computational analysis.The journal will publish:Detailed descriptions of databases, and database tools, in the broad arena of biology - authors are strongly encouraged to include a biological discovery or a 'testable' hypothesis in their papers.Shorter papers describing significant updates to established databases.Objective reviews of complementary and ancillary databases and database tools.User tutorials for database tools.Methodology and technical notes on database development.Improvements to automated prediction and annotation for biomedical datasets.Detailed descriptions of the state and updating of the annotation of genomes.Descriptions of the development and content of ontologies of relevance to the biomedical community and the tools specific to the use of these ontologies.Articles relevant to the annotation process such as standards for curation, annotation best practices, annotation methodologies, the use of automated and semi-automated methods for annotation and the measures for annotation consistency.Perspective manuscripts describing novel approaches, technologies, standards, or methods for database and/or annotation explorations including comparisons of state-of-the-art approaches. Perspectives can also include opinion pieces addressing challenges or debates in the field of biological databases and biocuration.Brief invited conference reports on topics related to the scope of the journal.Descriptions of databases and biocuration application and activities in all areas of biology are welcome, including biological chemistry, genomics, proteomics, glycomics, molecular biology, biomedicine, physiology, ecology, botany, zoology, and taxonomy.
数据库:《生物数据库与管理》杂志为围绕生物信息的数据库研究提供了一个开放的平台,旨在帮助加强数据库开发人员、管理员和用户之间的桥梁。此外,该期刊将为描述生物保护领域的新进展提供一个平台,并促进利用生物数据库的信息,协助规划和设计原始研究项目。Biocuration涉及到翻译与生物学和医学有关的信息,组织成一个格式,通常作为数据库,使科学文献的集成等大型数据集信息准确地代表和容易访问,作为科学家的信息来源,作为计算分析的基础。该杂志将发表:详细描述数据库和数据库工具,在广泛的生物学领域-强烈鼓励作者在他们的论文中包括一个生物学发现或一个“可测试的”假设。描述对已建立的数据库进行重大更新的较短的论文。目的综述互补和辅助数据库及数据库工具。数据库工具的用户教程。数据库开发方法和技术说明。改进生物医学数据集的自动预测和注释。详细描述基因组的状态和更新注释。描述与生物医学社区相关的本体的开发和内容,以及特定于使用这些本体的工具。与注释过程相关的文章,如管理标准、注释最佳实践、注释方法、注释的自动化和半自动化方法的使用以及注释一致性的度量。描述数据库和/或注释探索的新方法、技术、标准或方法的透视图手稿,包括最先进方法的比较。视角还可以包括解决生物数据库和生物保护领域的挑战或辩论的观点。简要邀请会议就与《日刊》范围有关的主题提出报告。欢迎在生物化学、基因组学、蛋白质组学、糖组学、分子生物学、生物医学、生理学、生态学、植物学、动物学和分类学等领域介绍数据库和生物化学的应用和活动。
