DNA Data Bank of Japan

DDBJ; DNA Data Bank of Japan is the sole nucleotide sequence data bank in Asia, which is officially certified to collect nucleotide sequences from researchers and to issue the internationally recognized accession number to data submitters.Since we exchange the collected data with EMBL-Bank/EBI; European Bioinformatics Institute and GenBank/NCBI; National Center for Biotechnology Information on a daily basis, the three data banks share virtually the same data at any given time. The virtually unified database is called "INSD; International Nucleotide Sequence Database DDBJ collects sequence data mainly from Japanese researchers, but of course accepts data and issue the accession number to researchers in any other countries.

DDBJ，即日本DNA数据库，系亚洲唯一官方认证的核酸序列数据库，负责收集研究人员的核酸序列并为其颁发国际认可的访问号。鉴于我们每日与EMBL-Bank/EBI（欧洲生物信息学研究所）以及GenBank/NCBI（美国国家生物技术信息中心）进行数据交换，故此三者几乎在任何时刻共享相同的数据。这一近乎统一的数据库被称为‘INSD，国际核酸序列数据库’。DDBJ主要收集日本研究人员的序列数据，但自然也接受来自其他国家研究人员的序列数据并为其颁发访问号。
