EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration
The International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC)
The INSDC consists of DDBJ (Japan), GenBank (USA) and the EMBL Nucleotide
Sequence Database. The three databases exchange new and updated data on a
daily basis to achieve optimal synchronisation.
DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank adhere to documented guidelines:
- The DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank Feature Table Definition
regulating the content and syntax of the database entries.
- A set of database policies issued and
published by the Int. Advisors to DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank.
This strong and successful collaboration is based on daily interactions
between database staff as well as working meetings amongst the
databases.
