Human MitBASE is a database collecting human mtDNA variants. This database
is part of a greater mitochondrial genome database (MitBASE) funded within
the EU Biotech Program. The present paper reports the recent improvements
in data structure, data quality and data quantity. As far as the database
structure is concerned it is now fully designed and implemented. Based on
the previously described structure some changes have been made to optimise
both data input and data quality. Cross-references with other bio-databases
(EMBL, OMIM, MEDLINE) have been implemented. Human MitBASE data can be
queried with the MitBASE Simple Query System
(http://www.ebi.ac.uk/htbin/Mitbase/mit base.pl) and with SRS at the EBI
under the 'Mutation' section (http://srs.ebi.ac.uk/srs5/). At present the
HumanMitBASE node contains approximately 5000 variants related to studies
investigating population polymorphisms and pathologies.
