Data grid management systems are becoming increasingly important in the context of the recently adopted service oriented science paradigm. The Grid Relational Catalog (GRelC) project is working towards ubiquitous, integrated, seamless and comprehensive data grid management solutions to fully address application specific requirements. This paper describes a GRelC based environment for bioinformatics and its underlying data grid services allowing scientific users (by means of a customized grid portal) to manage data, handle, share and publish metadata, perform search and discovery activities, etc.
