Core--Informatics and Data Management

MSGPP信息学和数据管理核心将协助维护所有MSGPP单位的数据库、计算机、网络和数据完整性。这包括安装硬件和软件；系统管理及电脑保安；为MSGPP内部的数据备份和文件共享提供存储和工具；维护内部网站，以便快速获取共享资源；维护公共网站，保证数据传输的联网。中央数据库将与本地数据库紧密集成，以促进数据传输和中央数据存储，使MSGPP研究人员能够跟踪和检索所有MSGPP项目中对目标所做的所有步骤的数据。该核心将提供挖掘数据的工具，以提高设备的成功率，并帮助识别管道中的瓶颈及其可能出现的瓶颈

The MSGPP Informatics and Data Management Core will assist in maintenance of databases, computers, networks and data integrity for all MSGPP units. This includes installing hardware and software; system administration and computer security; providing storage and tools for data backup and file sharing within MSGPP; maintaining the internal web site for rapid access to shared resources; maintaining the public website and assuring networking for data transfer. A central database will be tightly integrated with local databases to facilitate data transfer and central data storage, enabling MSGPP researchers to track and retrieve data for all the steps done on a target in all MSGPP Projects. This Core will provide tools to mine data to improve the success rate of the units, and help identify bottlenecks in the pipeline and their possible causes. This Core will generate the XML information for the TargetDB if NIH to avoid duplication with other structural genomics groups, and for PEPCDB if NIH of protocols for protein production and crystallization.
