The PrionDB is a part of a project devoted to build Molecular Class-Specific Information Systems (MCSISs) to provide, disseminate and harvest heterogeneous data. The PrionDB was built using the software developed for the GPCRDB and the NucleaRDB.
The people involved in the MCSIS project are:
and Fred E. Cohen
with the participation of
Barnaby May and Cédric Govaerts for the PrionDB,
Anthony L. Lau and Lawrence C. Lee for the extraction of mutation data
MCSIS: Emmanuel Bettler and Gerrit Vriend
