Database description

MicrobeDB.jp is an integrated database of several microbiological datasets (e.g., genes, taxa, and environments) using semantic web technology with a gene/genome -centric approach.

Features and manner of utilization of database

MicrobeDB.jp version 2 (doi: 10.18908/lsdba.nbdc01181-000.V002) is an updated version of MicrobeDB.jp version 1 (doi: 10.18908/lsdba.nbdc01181-000.V001). Since version 1 contains microbial genome, ortholog, metagenome, and culture collection data that were obtained before 2013, we updated these data with reorganizing RDF data structures. Microbial environmental ontology and other ontologies were also updated. These ontologies were used for annotation of the data. The data format of MicrobeDB.jp version 2 are RDF and OWL. Users can use these data by (i) loading the data to Triplestore, and (ii) searching the data using SPARQL.
