TransTerm is a database of initiation and termination sequence context
s from more than 250 organisms listed in GenBank, including the four c
omplete genomes: Haemophilus influenzae, Methanococcus jannaschii, Myc
oplasma genitalium, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For the current rele
ase, more than 60 000 coding sequences were analysed. The tabulated da
ta include initiation and termination contexts organised by species al
ong with quantitative parameters about individual coding sequences (le
ngth, %GC, GC3, Nc and CAI), There are also tables of initiation-and t
ermination-region nucleotide-frequencies, codon usage tables and summa
ries of stop signal usage.
