EuPathDB
The Eukaryotic Pathgen Database, or EuPathDB, is a database of bioinformatic and experimental data related to a variety of eukaryotic pathogens. It was established in 2006 under a National Institutes of Health program to create Bioinformatics Resource Centers to facilitate research on pathogens that may pose biodefense threats.[citation needed] EuPathDB stores data related to its organisms of interest and provides tools for searching through and analyzing the data. It currently consists of 14 component databases, each dedicated to a certain research topic. EuPathDB includes:[citation needed]
- Genomics resources covering eukaryotic protozoan parasites
- Host responses to parasite infection (HostDB)
- Orthologs (OrthoMCL)
- Clinical study data (ClinEpiDB)
- Microbiome data (MicrobiomeDB)
