The BioNumbers project performs literature-based curation of various sources.[1] It is a regularly updated online resource that contains >13,000 entries from ~1,000 distinct references.[2] Examples of data include transcription and translation rates, organism and organelle sizes, metabolites concentrations and growth rates. Entries are provided with full reference and details such as measurement method and comments.
BioNumbers also publishes a monthly review of a problem in quantitative biology.
