国家基因库概述

China National Genebank

国家基因库是服务于国家战略需求的国家级公益性创新科研及产业基础设施建设项目。2011年1月,国家发展改革委员会正式批复同意依托深圳华大基因研究院组建深圳国家基因库。同年10月国家发展改革委员会、财政部、工业和信息化部、国家卫生计划生育委员会(原卫生部)联合批复同意深圳国家基因库建设方案,相关项目列人国家战略性新兴产业发展专项资金计划。国家基因库建立集资源样本库、生物信息库、生物资源信息网络为一体的发展及运营模式,并由深圳华大基因研究院组建及运营,拟通过建立高水平的生物资源样本库、高效的生物信息数据处理、存储与管理系统以及覆盖广泛的联盟网络,有效保护、合理开发和利用我国生物资源及基因数据资源,该项目的建设实施有利于保护我国珍贵且特有的遗传资源,实现样本资源、基因及数据资源共享开发利用,提高我国遗传资源样本和基因信息数据的储存、分析、管理和应用能力,进而推动生命科学和生物产业发展。这对于我们国家抢占未来生物经济的战略制高点、掌控生物遗传资源、基因战略资源,具有极其重要的战略意义。

China National Genebank-Shenzhen（CNGB） is a national nonprofit institute,which is founded to serve the strategic needs of the Chinese government and to boost innovative scientific research and the infrastructure construction for biological industries.In January 2011,CNGB was approved by the National Development and Reform Commission（NDRC）.Later in 2011,the Construction Scheme of CNGB was joindy approved by NDRC,the Ministry of Finance（MOF）,the Ministry of Industry and Technology Information（MIIT） and the National Health and Family Planning Commission（NHFPC,The original Ministry of Health）,funded in the Special Fund Plan for the Development of National Strategic Emerging Industry.CNGB is established and operated by BGI-Shenzhen characterizing in a creative development model which combines biological bank,informatics bank and biological resources information consortium network together.With the goal of establishing a world-leading biological bank,with highly efficient biological information data processing,storage and management system and comprehensive consortium network,CNGB provides effective protection as well as rational utilization of the Chinese massive bio-resources（include both human and non-human specimen） and related clinical（or phenotypic） information and OMICS data.The establishment of CNGB is essential for protecting genetic resources in China,for realizing the development and application as well as sharing of sample and data resources.CNGB also strives to improve the capabilities of storing,analyzing,managing and utilizing of specimen and relevant information storage,analysis,management and applications,which will consequently propel the development of biological industry and life science.In summary,CNGB has great strategic significant importance for our country to seize the commanding heights of bio-economy,and to possess take control of the strategic biological genetic resources and genetic data.
