NYU Langone Medical Center, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) WikiPathways Metabolic pathway and protein function databases Taxonomic databases Numerous databases collect information about species and other taxonomic categories. The Catalogue of Life is a special case as it is a meta-database of about 150 specialized "global species databases" (GSDs) that have collected the names and other information on (almost) all described and thus "known" species. BacDive: bacterial metadatabase that provides strain-linked information about bacterial and archaeal biodiversity, including taxonomy information Catalogue of Life: a meta-database of all species on earth EzTaxon-e: database for the identification of prokaryotes based on 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequences NCBI Taxonomy: a taxonomic database operated by NCBI and concentrating on all taxa for which DNA sequences are available (those sequences are stored by GenBank, another database operated by NCBI). Image databases Images play a critical role in biomedicine, ranging from images of anthropological specimens to zoology. However, there are relatively few databases dedicated to image collection, although some projects such as iNaturalist collect photos as a main part of their data. A special case of "images" are 3-dimensional images such as protein structures or 3D-reconstructions of anatomical structures. Image databases include, among others: Allen Brain Atlas Digital Brain Bank Electron Microscopy Public Image Archive (EMPIAR) Image Data Resource Morphobank Morphosource Additional databases Exosomal databases ExoCarta Extracellular RNA Atlas: a repository of small RNA-seq and qPCR-derived exRNA profiles from human and mouse biofluids Mathematical model databases Biomodels Database: published mathematical models describing biological processes Radiologic databases The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA) Neuroimaging Informatics Tools and Resources Clearinghouse Databases on antimicrobial resistance rates and antibiotic consumption CIPARS EARS-Net ESAC-Net Databases on antimicrobial resistance mechanisms Wiki-style databases Gene Wiki WikiProfessional Specialized databases References External links Nucleic Acid Research Molecular Biology Database Collection – over 1,600 databases Nucleic Acid Research (NAR) Database Summary Paper Category List Da
