}}The Database for Bacterial Group II Introns is a repository of full-length, non-redundant group II introns present in bacterial DNA sequence.{{cite journal |last=Candales|first=Manuel A|author2=Duong Adrian |author3=Hood Keyar S |author4=Li Tony |author5=Neufeld Ryan A E |author6=Sun Runda |author7=McNeil Bonnie A |author8=Wu Li |author9=Jarding Ashley M |author10=Zimmerly Steven |date=Jan 2012|title=Database for bacterial group II introns|journal = Nucleic Acids Res.|volume=40|issue=1|pages=D187-90|location = England| pmid = 22080509|doi = 10.1093/nar/gkr1043| pmc=3245105}} The database is first established in 2002 with roughly 40 introns. In less than 10 years, the database has expanded to 400 introns. Current database includes a wealth of information on the properties, structures, and classification of group II intron. In addition, it contains a list of intron insertion sites, DNA sequences, protein-encoding sequences, as well as RNA secondary structures.{{cite journal |last=Candales|first=Manuel A|author2=Duong Adrian |author3=Hood Keyar S |author4=Li Tony |author5=Neufeld Ryan A E |author6=Sun Runda |author7=McNeil Bonnie A |author8=Wu Li |author9=Jarding Ashley M |author10=Zimmerly Steven |date=Jan 2012|title=Database for bacterial group II introns|journal = Nucleic Acids Res.|volume=40|issue=1|pages=D187-90|location = England| pmid = 22080509|doi = 10.1093/nar/gkr1043| pmc=3245105}}
