YOGY -- a web-based, integrated database to retrieve protein orthologs and associated Gene Ontology terms
What you can do:
Retrieve protein orthologs and associated Gene Ontology terms from nine eukaryotic model organisms.
Highlights:
- YOGY is a web-based resource for orthologous proteins from nine eukaryotic organisms: Homo sapiens, Mus musculus, Rattus norvegicus, Arabidopsis thaliana, Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans, Plasmodium falciparum, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
- Using a gene name from any of these organisms as a query, this database provides comprehensive, combined information on orthologs in other species using data from five independent resources: KOGs, Inparanoid, HomoloGene, OrthoMCL and a table of curated fission and budding yeast orthologs.
- Associated Gene Ontology (GO) terms of orthologs can also be retrieved for functional inference.
- Integrating these different and complementary datasets provides a straightforward tool to identify known and predicted orthologs of proteins from a variety of species.
