DNA Data Bank of Japan

The DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) is a national database that stores genetic information from various organisms, including humans. It collects DNA sequences and related data, making them accessible for researchers worldwide. By sharing this information, the DDBJ supports scientific research in areas like genetics, medicine, and biodiversity. It helps scientists understand biological functions, evolution, and develop new medical treatments. The DDBJ collaborates with other international databases to ensure that researchers have the most comprehensive and updated genetic information available.
