title: A variant database.
abstract: Variant biomacromolecules, either natural or artificially created, are proving to be useful in determining structure-function relationships. Research in this field would be facilitated by the compilation of data of variants into a central and widely available repository. The Variant Database acts as a repository for data concerning variant molecules. It complements the Biological Activity and the Physicochemical Property Databases as well as provides variant sequences.
