Abstract:
1. A system for transacting and manipulating a multi-sequence search using biological data repositories, comprising: a user interface servlet receiving a search request comprising a set of search query parameters specifying a plurality of sequence sets for a plurality of sequence types, parsing each sequence individually and determining each of the sequence types from the search query parameters, each sequence set encoding structured biological data values, processing the search query parameters into a plurality of structured database queries comprising at least one structured database query for each sequence set according to the sequence types, and receiving search results as sequence set information organized and reformatted for each sequence set; a multiple sequence aligner a plurality of sequences using the search results based on one or more structured biological data values having matching characteristics, and forwarding the aligned sequences with matching characteristics indicators; a database servlet loading a search queue with the structured database for each sequence set and identifying a biological data repository for each structured database query; and a queue handler launching individual search of the biological data repository identified for each structured database query for each sequence set and retrieving search results generated responsive to each such structured database query search.
