EMBL-EBI hosts a comprehensive range of freely available molecular databases. Increasingly, these public resources are committing to providing and supporting RDF versions of their data. The RDF platform helps developers get to grips with the technology and the data, supporting further integration of applications. Over time, the goal is to create a seamless experience for scientists exploring the scientific literature and the data that supports it, spanning genes, expression, proteins, pathways, networks and many other types.
