The document discusses three data retrieval tools - Entrez, DBGET, and SRS - that allow molecular biologists to search and access information across multiple linked databases. Entrez, developed by NCBI, integrates information from databases including GenBank, RefSeq, PDB, and PubMed. SRS, developed by EBI, is an open source software that integrates over 80 molecular biology databases and has a scripting language called Icarus. SRS indexes over 250 databases and has over 35 servers worldwide. It allows searching of sequence, structure, gene-related, and bibliographic databases through a uniform web interface.
