Outline of the Israeli national and ethnic mutation database (NEMDB). The database has three main components: disease summaries (categorised by religious groups); allele frequency search options, available separately in a public or restricted password-protected (Search +) environment; and genetic laboratories. The database is under the scientific control of a group of curators under the supervision of the Israeli NEMDB National Coordinator, while a dedicated database development and maintenance team oversees the smooth operation of the Israeli NEMDB.
