MINAS contains the exact geometric information on the first and second-shell coordinating ligands of every metal ion present in nucleic acid structures that are deposited in the PDB and NDB. Containing also the sequence information of the binding pocket-proximal nucleotides, this database allows for a detailed search of all combinations of potential ligands and of coordination environments of metal ions. MINAS is therefore a perfect new tool to classify metal ion binding pockets in nucleic acids by statistics and to draw general conclusions about the different coordination properties of these ions. This record has been marked as Uncertain because the homepage for this resource is no longer active, and we have not been able to get in touch with the owners of the resource.

The Biodiversity Literature Repository (BLR) is a research infrastructure (RI) comprising the BLR Community on Zenodo at the European Center for Nuclear Research (CERN), and services to search and retrieve the data (Ocellus, Zenodeo API, BLR website). BLR’s focus is on biodiversity data liberated from scholarly publications, and it uses custom metadata linking to external vocabularies covering the needs of the biodiversity community. This includes taxonomic treatment or figures as well as the deposit of the original article annotated with metadata describing the data contained in the articles itself, as well as related identifiers for figures and and treatments therein. The main data import is through TreatmentBank or via publishers such as Pensoft. With over 650,000 deposits, BLR is the single largest community in Zenodo. Its data is widely reused, for example by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF). All data in BLR is published under the CC0 Public Domain Dedication, remaining free for anyone to use, anywhere, for any purpose.

The Bacterial Diversity Metadatabase BacDive is the worldwide largest database for standardized bacterial phenotypic information. Its mission is to mobilize research data on strain level from internal files in culture collections (e.g. CABI, CIP, CCUG, DSMZ) as well as from primary literature and make it freely accessible. Today BacDive offers data on 93,254 bacterial and archaeal strains, including 19,313 type strains and thereby covers approx. 90% of the validly described species. Within over 600 data fields the topics taxonomy, morphology, physiology, origin, molecular data, and cultivation conditions are covered. The database offers systematic access to phenotypic data. BacDive thereby enables queries like "show me all strains that grow under certain conditions” by using the Advanced search or queries like “show me all strains isolated from a marine environment” by using the Isolation source search. With currently 15,357 API® tests for 27,634 strains, BacDive also offers the worldwide largest API® test collection, which can be queried using the API test finder tool.
