CORG -- A database for COmparative Regulatory Genomics
What you can do:
Delineate conserved non-coding blocks from upstream regions of putative orthologous gene pairs from man, mouse, rat, fugu, Mus musculus, Danio rerio, and zebrafish.
Highlights:
- The data were computed based on statistically significant local suboptimal alignments of 15 kb regions upstream of the translation start sites of 10793 pairs of orthologous genes (as of 2003, significantly more added in 2004).
- The resulting conserved non-coding blocks were annotated with EST matches for easier detection of non-coding mRNA and with hits to known transcription factor binding sites.
- CORG data are accessible from the ENSEMBL web site via a DAS service as well as a specially developed web service for query and interactive visualization of the conserved blocks and their annotation.
