Logical database representation. Data are incorporated from the UCSC Human Genome Build, LocusLink, UniGene, OMIM, and the Affymetrix annotation sets for HU95 and HU133 chips. Each candidate gene is assigned a gene index in the GeneIdx table. These gene indexes are used as keys for all of the MatchMiner operations. The number of many-to-many relationships in the model illustrates the complexity of the data. Physical representation of the database. The implementation currently includes 14 tables with about 12 million rows.
