Xenbase -- a Xenopus biology and genomics resource
What you can do:
Find a diverse array of biological and genomic data on the frogs, Xenopus laevis and Xenopus (Silurana) tropicalis.
Highlights:
- Xenbase is the model organism database for Xenopus laevis and X. (Silurana) tropicalis.
- Recent improvements include the addition of the literature and interaction tabs to gene catalog pages.
- New content has been added including a section on gene expression patterns that incorporates image data from the literature, large scale screens and community submissions.
- Gene expression data are integrated into the gene catalog via an expression tab and is also searchable by multiple criteria using an expression search interface.
- The gene catalog has grown to contain over 15,000 genes.
- Collaboration with the European Xenopus Research Center (EXRC) has resulted in a stock center section with data on frog lines supplied by the EXRC.
