Abstract
STRBase (strbase.nist.gov) was launched in late 1997 to collect and organize information in one location about Short Tandem Repeats (STR), the new emerging forensic marker type at the time. Over the next twenty-plus years, data related to STR markers was collected from the community and incorporated into STRBase. More recently, this has included adding the STR sequencing information from the STRSeq project, which is a curated set of sequences collected from the forensic community housed at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in the form of GenBank records organized into BioProjects. STRBase and STRSeq continue to evolve and grow, with additional functionality and information continuously added.Citation
