MiMi:Michigan Molecular Interactions

  • NCBC Ontology Classification: Biotool --> Data Management -->Information retrieval, traversal and querying
  • Description: MiMI gathers data from well-known protein interaction databases and merges the information. Since these datasets often contain contradictory information, the merge is performed in such a way that all information is retained. A provenance model has been developed that tracks where each piece of data came from, and what processes have been performed upon it. A simple yet powerful user interface aids users in their queries. Thus, MiMI allows scientists to query all data, whether corroborative, or contradictory, and specify which sources to utilize
  • Data Input: MQuery
  • Data Output: XML using MiMI's internal schema, PSI-MI format (version 2.5) and plain text
