It is widely accepted that the use of Conceptual Modeling techniques in modern Software Engineering leads to a more accurate description of the problem domain. The application of these techniques in the context of challenging domains as the human genome is a fascinating task. The relevant biological concepts should be properly addressed through the creation of the corresponding conceptual schema. This schema will improve the description of the global process followed from a DNA sequence to a fully functional protein. Once the conceptual model is established, the corresponding database is created. The database is intended to act as a unified repository of integrated information that will allow biologists to perform efficient recovery tasks.
