Welcome to
MeDBA
MeDBA aims to provide an integrated, distinctive, practicable, user-friendly platform for metalloenzyme-focused data bank and analysis. It integrates information regarding metalloenzymes, ligands, metalloenzyme-ligand associations with metalloenzyme-specific analysis tools, which will help understand and investigate metalloenzyme-involved contents, and will promote and bridge metalloenzyme-related areas (e.g., biological chemistry, structural and chemical biology, synthetic biology, bioinorganic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, computational chemistry and drug discovery). MeDBA is developed and maintained by Prof. Guo-Bo Li's group.
