Highlights:
  • The National BioResource Project (NBRP) is a Japanese project that aims to establish a system for collecting, preserving and providing bioresources for use as experimental materials for life science research.
  • It is promoted by 27 core resource facilities, each concerned with a particular group of organisms, and by one information center.
  • The NBRP database is a product of this project.
  • Thirty databases and an integrated database-retrieval system (BioResource World: BRW) have been created and made available through the NBRP home page.
  • The 30 independent databases have individual features which directly reflect the data maintained by each resource facility.
  • The BRW is designed for users who need to search across several resources without moving from one database to another. BRW provides access to a collection of 4.5-million records on bioresources including wild species, inbred lines, mutants, genetically engineered lines, DNA clones and so on.
