OriDB -- a DNA replication origin database
URL:
What you can do:
Search for both confirmed and predicted S.cerevisiae DNA replication origin sites.
Highlights:
- OriDB provides a web-based catalogue of these confirmed and predicted S.cerevisiae DNA replication origin sites.
- The record for each site contains following information: genomic location and chromosome context of the origin site; time of origin replication; DNA sequence of proposed or experimentally confirmed origin elements; free energy required to open the DNA duplex (stress-induced DNA duplex destabilization or SIDD); and phylogenetic conservation of sequence elements.
- Origin sites are linked to several external resources, including the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) and relevant publications at PubMed.
- Finally, a Chromosome Viewer utility allows users to interactively generate graphical representations of DNA replication data genome-wide.
- As of 2006, the sites are limited to budding yeast (S. cerevisiae).
