MOLE: a data management application based on a protein production data model.
MOLE (mining, organizing, and logging experiments) has been developed to meet the growing data management and target tracking needs of molecular biologists and protein crystallographers. The prototype reported here will become a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) to help protein scientists manage the large amounts of laboratory data being generated due to the acceleration in proteome research and will furthermore facilitate collaborations between groups based at different sites. To achieve this, MOLE is based on the data model for protein production devised at the European Bioinformatics Institute (Pajon A, et al., Proteins in press).
