8.3 Databases Results<br />

Figure 8.1: Overview <strong>of</strong> GenemiR. (a) Queries based on various data types (the<br />

input section: microRNAs, expression data, genes, and identifiers) are executed<br />

against internal or external databases to generate other data types (the output section:<br />

genes, microRNAs, graphs and converted identifiers). The shaded boxes distinguish<br />

the core primitive functions from the auxiliary ones. (b) Relationships between<br />

databases used by GenemiR and the functions that operate on them. Solid lines depict<br />

databases <strong>of</strong> fixed size over the lifetime <strong>of</strong> the program’s execution, whereas the<br />

dashed lines indicate a dataset <strong>of</strong> variable dimensions according to the files that are<br />

inputted by the user.<br />

8.3 Databases<br />

All microRNAs and genes that could constitute a query are stored in the form<br />

<strong>of</strong> three internal databases:<br />

1. Identifiers for all known human and mouse microRNAs;<br />

2. Genbank, RefSeq [409], EMBL [252], ENSG, ENST [147] identifiers for<br />

all annotated human and mouse genes;<br />
