Integration of molecular biology databases remains limited in practice despite its practical importance and considerable research effort. The complexity of the problem is such that an experimental approach is mandatory, yet this very complexity makes it hard to design definitive experiments. This dilemma is common in science, and one tried-and-true strategy is to work with model systems. We propose a model system for this problem, namely a database of genes integrating diverse data across organisms, and describe an experiment using this model.
