Biological sequence databases are currently being re-engineered to make them more efficient and easier to use. This re-engineering is also providing an infrastructure to make it easier to interrogate and integrate data from different sources. The net result of this effort should be a great improvement in the power and availability of bioinformatics resources to the general biology community.
