DataBases overview
At this point, we want to know how do we think our database. In fact we don't have only one database. We think of integrating a modifiable software which can fit easily with databases. At a biological point of vue, we've got to deal with the fact that we have to represent every DNA, those we have, those we had, and those we'll have. We also need a Database who can be use as a LabBook, and a Protocols reference system. For the Biological part, we discuss about the principle to separate the theoretical DNA with the physical one:
- theoretical DNA (tDNA) represent every DNA in any form (circular, linear, double, single, length etc...). With this methodology, we don't need to discuss about the presence of it in the lab. We can also name a tDNA witch is compose of other tDNA, and then, form entity like plasmid or even more full genome.
- physical DNA (pDNA) represent the working present DNA in the lab. It refers to the tDNA with some physical informations, like : quantities, freezer places and owners.
