Abstract

The National Genomics Data Center (NGDC) provides a suite of database resources to support worldwide research activities in both academia and industry. With the rapid advancements in higher-throughput and lower-cost sequencing technologies and accordingly the huge volume of multi-omics data generated at exponential scales and rates, NGDC is continually expanding, updating and enriching its core database resources through big data integration and value-added curation. In the past year, efforts for update have been mainly devoted to BioProject, BioSample, GSA, GWH, GVM, NONCODE, LncBook, EWAS Atlas and IC4R. Newly released resources include three human genome databases (PGG.SNV, PGG.Han and CGVD), eLMSG, EWAS Data Hub, GWAS Atlas, iSheep and PADS Arsenal. In addition, four web services, namely, eGPS Cloud, BIG Search, BIG Submission and BIG SSO, have been significantly improved and enhanced. All of these resources along with their services are publicly accessible at https://bigd.big.ac.cn.

The National Genomics Data Center's core data resources. Three categories, namely, data, information and knowledge, are adopted to represent resources that are typically to deposit raw data/metadata (archives), house value-added information (databases) and integrate validated knowledge through literature curation (knowledgebases), respectively. It is noted that there are several databases that are not introduced in this report, namely, BioCode—Biological Tool Codes, GEN—Gene Expression Nebulas, iDog—Integrated Resource for Dog. A full list of data resources, which contains links to each resource, is available at https://bigd.big.ac.cn/databases.
