APPLICATIONS AND METHODS UTILIZING THE SIMPLE SEMANTIC WEB ARCHITECTURE AND PROTOCOL (SSWAP) FOR BIOINFORMATICS RESOURCE DISCOVERY AND DISPARATE DATA AND SERVICE INTEGRATION

Applications and methods utilizing the Simple Semantic Web Architecture and Protocol (SSWAP) for bioinformatics resource discovery and disparate data and service integration

Abstract Background Scientific data integration and computational service discovery are challenges for the bioinformatic community.This process is made more difficult by the separate and independent construction of biological databases, which makes the exchange of data between information resources difficult and labor intensive.A recently described

Guinea pig apolipoprotein C-II: expression in E. coli, functional studies of recombinant wild-type and mutated variants, and distribution on plasma lipoproteins

Guinea pig apolipoprotein C-II (apoC-II) lacks four amino acid residues in the amino-terminal, lipid-binding part compared to apoC-II from other mammalian species (Andersson et al.1991.J.Biol.Chem.266: 4074-4080).To explore whether this structural difference explains the low ability of guinea pig Dryer Door Moulding plasma to activate lipoprotein l
