What you can do:

Find useful numbers and quantitative properties in biological research.

Highlights:

BioNumbers is a database of key numbers in molecular and cell biology--the quantitative properties of biological systems of interest to computational, systems and molecular cell biologists.
Contents of the database range from cell sizes to metabolite concentrations, from reaction rates to generation times, from genome sizes to the number of mitochondria in a cell.
While always of importance to biologists, having numbers in hand is becoming increasingly critical for experimenting, modeling, and analyzing biological systems.
All numbers are taken directly from a literature source and that reference is provided with the number.
BioNumbers is designed to be highly searchable and queries can be performed by keywords or browsed by menus.
BioNumbers is a collaborative community platform where registered users can add content and make comments on existing data.
