    The SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics' resources: focus on curated databases

    Full text link
    The SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (www.isb-sib.ch) provides world-class bioinformatics databases, software tools, services and training to the international life science community in academia and industry. These solutions allow life scientists to turn the exponentially growing amount of data into knowledge. Here, we provide an overview of SIB's resources and competence areas, with a strong focus on curated databases and SIB's most popular and widely used resources. In particular, SIB's Bioinformatics resource portal ExPASy features over 150 resources, including UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot, ENZYME, PROSITE, neXtProt, STRING, UniCarbKB, SugarBindDB, SwissRegulon, EPD, arrayMap, Bgee, SWISS-MODEL Repository, OMA, OrthoDB and other databases, which are briefly described in this article

    The SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics Semantic Web of data

    Full text link
    The SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (https://www.sib.swiss/) is a federation of bioinformatics research and service groups. The international life science community in academia and industry has been accessing the freely available databases provided by SIB since its inception in 1998. In this paper we present the 11 databases which currently offer semantically enriched data in accordance with the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable), as well as the Swiss Personalized Health Network initiative (SPHN) which also employs this enrichment. The semantic enrichment facilitates the manipulation of large data sets from public databases and private data sets. Examples are provided to illustrate that the data from the SIB databases can not only be queried using precise criteria individually, but also across multiple databases, including a variety of non-SIB databases. Data manipulation, be it exploration, extraction, annotation, combination, and publication, is possible using the SPARQL query language. Providing documentation, tutorials and sample queries makes it easier to navigate this web of semantic data. Through this paper, the reader will discover how the existing SIB knowledge graphs can be leveraged to tackle the complex biological or clinical questions that are being addressed today
