Graphical user interface to multiple biological databases

Accessing multiple biological databases involves either explicit navigation through multiple databases or expressing a query in the query language of the designer which is a formidable task. In this paper we propose a graphical user interface to multiple biological databases. The query which consists of the data to be retrieved and the condition, if any, to be satisfied is expressed in an intuitive way. The link information that exists in the databases is used automatically by the system and the relevant data retrieved. The retrieved data can be viewed in more than one format. There is also a provision for refining the query.
