Biomolecular interaction network database.
This software review looks at the utility of the Biomolecular Interaction Network Database (BIND) as a web database. BIND offers methods common to related biology databases and specialisations for its protein interaction data. Searching and browsing this database is easy and well integrated with the underlying data and the needs of scientists. Interaction networks are visualised with software that offers many useful options. The innovative ontoglyphs are used throughout to provide visual cues to protein functions, localisation and other aspects one needs to know for this data set. One can expect to get useful results that may be well integrated with one's research needs.
