The ERGO -- Genome analysis and discovery system
What you can do:
Conduct a comprehensive analysis of genes and genomes.
Highlights:
- This genome analysis and discovery suite is an integration of biological data from genomics, biochemistry, high-throughput expression profiling, genetics and peer-reviewed journals.
- ERGO combines pattern-based analysis with comparative genomics by visualizing genes within the context of regulation, expression profiling, phylogenetic clusters, fusion events, networked cellular pathways and chromosomal neighborhoods of other functionally related genes.
- The result of this multifaceted approach is to provide an extensively curated database of the largest available integration of genomes, with a vast collection of reconstructed cellular pathways spanning all domains of life.
- The current version (2004) of the ERGO database contains 618 complete or nearly complete genomes, of which 319 are Bacteria, 116 Eukarya, 34 Archaea and 149 Viruses.
- ERGO is not available to the general public, access to ERGO is provided only under subscription.
