- Recently, the pace of growth in the amount of data sources within Life Sciences has increased exponentially until pose a difficult problem to efficiently manage their integration. The data avalanche we are experiencing may be significant for a turning point in science, with a change of orientation from proprietary to publicly available data and a concomitant acceptance of studies based on the latter. To investigate these issues, a Network of Excellence (EMBRACE) was launched with the aim to integrate the major databases and the most popular bioinformatics software tools. The focus of this thesis is therefore to approach the problem of seamlessly integrating varied data sources and/or distributed research tools. In paper I, we have developed a web service to facilitate allergenicity risk assessment, based on allergen descriptors, in order to characterize proteins with the potential for sensitization and cross-reactivity. In paper II, a web service was developed which uses a lightweight protocol to integrate human endogenous retrovirus (ERV) data within a public genome browser. This new data catalogue and many other publicly available sources were integrated and tested in a bioinformatics-rich client application. In paper III, GeneFinder, a distributed tool for genome-wide association studies, was developed and tested. Useful information based on a particular genomic region can be easily retrieved and assessed. Finally, in paper IV, we developed a prototype pipeline to mine the dog genome for endogenous retroviruses and displaying the transcriptional landscape of these retroviral integrations. Moreover, we further characterized a group that until this point was believed to be primate-specific. Our results also revealed that the dog has been very effective in protecting itself from such integrations. This work integrates different applications in the fields of protein allergology, biotechnology, genome association studies and endogenous retroviruses.
