Entrez
Entrez is NCBI's primary text search and retrieval system that integrates multiple biological databases including PubMed, GenBank, Gene, Protein, and many others. It provides a unified query interface and retrieval mechanism across NCBI's vast collection of biomedical and genomic data resources, enabling researchers to search and access information from disparate databases using a single query system.
