Incyte Genomics to Sell Access to Proteome BioKnowledge Databases
Submitted by Martin Kucej; posted on Thursday, April 18, 2002 (14 comments)

One of the most useful databases, which gathers comprehensive data on proteomes of several organisms, including yeast and human, will require a paid subscription as of June 1st of this year (2002).
Incyte Genomics plans to charge $2000 US per year per laboratory to access the library. A laboratory is defined to be ``a single Principal Investigator, his/her postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, and technical support (usually 5-8 individuals).'' According to information provided, ``larger labs, depending on their size, may be required to purchase multiple subscriptions.''
Charging the fee of $2000 US will simply mean cessation of its use for thousands of laboratories, mainly from poor countries, unfortunately, also including most of the European laboratories.
Incyte Genomics seems to take seriously its slogan: ``Integrating the Science and Business of Genomics.''

the metalife viewer visualizes the data of the area of knowledge of life processes accumulated in metalife knowledgebase in order to facilitate the intuitive explication of biological processes. the user can search for network of molecular interactions, pathways, functional network or other ontology. metalife viewer contains a highly effective filter that gives the possibility to obtain reports with the required contents. in combination with additional processing algorithms data can be processed and sorted in appropriate order. this gives the performance to represent data visually, and form the searched knowledge to pass to hypotheses. metalife viewer can communicate and interact with all other modules developed by metalife.
