Editor's Notes

  • #17: We are exposed to a very diverse service world
  • #19: The idea behind EnCORE is simplified in this picture Input (our query) is contained in a XML standard format called EnXML We can run different services over this input. We get results contained in the same EnXML format The Outputs can be use as inputs of other services.
  • #20: This is a generic example of how an EnCORE service work
  • #21: An specific example The query is a protein Acc We run the Intact service We get the interactions result defined by the EnXML terminology
  • #22: The same results in a table
  • #23: EnCORE facilitates building workflows
  • #26: EnVISION results are nice, but do not forget our initial integration problem For one domain (protein interaction, pathways, protein sequence …) we might have several databases providing data
  • #27: EnCORE provides a great solution however it is not complete if it can not include more resources For EnCORE it is not feasible to develop and maintain so many wrappers. Nonetheless EnCORE can overcome this problem using standards and federated systems
  • #34: EnVISION is an EnCORE interface With just one click user can run different services get a quick overview for a dataset This example shows result for …
  • #35: Here an example of the potential of EnVISION In this example we used a dataset of more than 300 protein Acc. In this screenshot EnVISION was able to find more than 500 pathways for this dataset. EnVISION is capable to link and display positive results in a pathway map.
  • #39: Integration of biological data of various types and development of adapted bioinformatics tools represent critical objectives to enable research at the systems level. The European Network of Excellence ENFIN is engaged in developing an adapted infrastructure to connect databases, and platforms to enable both generation of new bioinformatics tools and experimental validation of computational predictions. Beyond the use of common standards to format individual datasets, there is a need for sophisticated informatics platforms to enable mining data across various domains, sources, formats and types. The aim of the EnCORE project is to integrate across different disciplines an extensive list of database resources and analysis tools in a computationally accessible and extensible manner, facilitating automated data retrieval and processing with a special focus on systems biology. The EnCORE platform is available as a collection of webservices with a common standard format easy to integrate in Workflow management software such as Taverna. Additionally EnCORE services are also accessible thought EnVISION, a web graphical user interface providing elaborated information such as molecular interaction, biological pathways and computational models of pathways.
