DBGET LinkDB KEGG2

DBGET is an integrated database retrieval system for major biological databases at GenomeNet. It is also used in KEGG as the backbone retrieval system. DBGET is based on a flat-file view of molecular biology databases, where the database is considered as a collection of entries. Thus, each entry of each database can be retrieved by the combination of the database name and the entry name (see the history of development).
