Abstract excerpt
New technologies, which constantly become available for mutation detection and gene analysis, have contributed to an exponential rate of discovery of disease genes and variation in the human genome. The task of collecting and documenting this enormous amount of data in genetic databases represents a major challenge for the future of biological and medical science. The Locus Specific Databases (LSDBs) are so far...
