title: The HIB database of annotated UniGene clusters.
abstract: The HumanInfoBase (HIB) is a database of putative human gene transcripts. UniGene clusters are assembled, and the resulting consensus sequences are submitted to the PEDANT software system (Frishman,D., Albermann,K., Hani,J., Heumann,K., Metanomski,A., Zollner,A. and Mewes,H.-W., 2001, Bioinformatics, 17, 44--57) for fully automatic sequence analysis and annotation. Predicted transcripts are classified using a variety of functional and structural categories, and hyperlinks to various databases are provided for additional information. A WWW-based graphical user interface represents the assembly process as well as functionally important sites in the putative transcripts.
