Hi, I am a pharmacy graduate, trained as protein annotator, and currently completing my software engineering diploma.
I am planning to set a MySQL/Python (Django framework) web portal with tables of chemicals from PubChem and microorganisms from NCBI Taxonomy. Do I need to have a complete set tables of the whole classification hierarchy? E.g., Taxa (domain, phylum... strain), chemical (organic chemical, amine.... chemical name).
Thanks.
That depends on what you are trying to achieve, which is not clear to me from the question.
