This site is a prelude to the internationally supported BioCatalogue system that will collect, store, validate, and make available web-services in the biosciences. This registry is mainly meant for the EU projects EMBRACE, BioSapiens and ENFIN, but other users are welcome too. As a potential web service user, you can search or browse the registry for services that match your needs. Furthermore, each entry includes live test data, showing the current and historical status of the service. Each entry can also include example client software to help you include them in your own programs or workflows. As a service provider, the registry helps you build high quality services that conform to industry standards, and gives you a means of advertising your tools to the user community as well as a platform for testing your service. Your service remains your property and published by you - this registry merely advertises its existence and its status.
This system will in due time merge seamlessly into the BioCatalogue, and if you use this registry, you will not have to register your service again with the BioCatalogue.

WSx3DEM_EMDB

WSx3DEM_EMDB - Annotation server for 3D-EM volume maps.
WSx3DEM_Reference uses a client-server pattern to provide the structural 3D models maintained at the Electron Microscopy DataBase (EMDB). The 3D-EM models are the reference data where annotations are located representing the known features for a particular macromolecule. Accessing other biological entities is also possible as far as a relation between coordinate systems exists, serving as an alignment method.
This is a first implementation (using Axis2) translating the REST services into SOAP-RPC services.

WSxVO

Available services:
# WSxVO - The starting point. Function dsn returns a list of available Web Services (data sources).
# WSxVO_EMAP_Reference - Reference for terms from EMAP-OBO digital atlas of mouse development. Contains a set of terms from the for mouse embryo (EMAP) and mouse adult (MA) ontologies plus the mouse central nervous system (GENSAT) vocabulary describing anatomical structures.
# WSxVO_MGI_Reference - Reference for gene identifiers. It has as entry points the whole set of genes from MGI-GXD, EMAGE, GENSAT and OMIM databases
