GeneDB: A Comprehensive Database for Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Organisms

GeneDB from Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute is a versatile tool for pathogen sequencing, annotation, and data dissemination, encompassing various organisms such as yeasts, fungi, bacteria, protozoa. This database includes curated protein and sequence databases, functional genomics resources, and diverse tools for gene prediction and motif analysis. It facilitates literature searches, user data submissions, and updates, ensuring valuable information on genomic sequences. Curated by dedicated curators per organism, GeneDB integrates data from multiple sources and fosters community feedback for accurate annotations using GO controlled vocabulary.

  1. GeneDB: A database for Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Organisms Pathogen Sequencing Unit The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute

  2. Pathogen Sequencing Unit (http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Projects/) The Pathogen Group is funded to sequence the genomes of a wide range of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms Yeasts and Fungi: Schizosaccharomyces pombe Aspergillus fumigatus Pneumocystis carinii Bacteria: M. tuberculosis M. leprae Y. pestis S. typhi C. diphtheria B. pseudomallei Protozoa: Plasmodium falciparum Leishmania Trypanosoma Eimeria Theileria

  3. Sanger Institute Project pages Sequence databases (EMBL, Genbank, Swiss-Prot) Analysis FTP site BLAST GeneDB Dissemination of information sequence and annotation

  4. Literature searches User data submissions and updates 10 sequence databases Curated protein databases validation value addition Gene Ontology Protein domain databases Gene prediction tools Database searches Organism databases Functional genomics resources Protein motif predictions cross-references submissions/updates reports flatfiles GeneDB serialised objects ftp GUS tools Java Servlets/JSP classes Motif search EMOWSE BLAST links to feature pages sequence annotation curation GeneDB mining code

  5. Basic information • Location c) Curated annotation • Predicted peptide properties

  6. Database cross references • Gene Ontology: annotation • using the GO controlled vocabulary • Curated orthologs • Similarity information • Swiss-Prot annotations • Contact details

  7. Curation within GeneDB • 1 curator per organism/related species • maintenance of sequence data / annotation • of multi-centre of often unfinished projects • integration of information extracted from • literature, public databases, community • feedback using structured syntax/vocabulary • nomenclature
