SGD - SACCHAROMYCES-GENOME-DATABASE

The Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) provides Internet access to th e complete Saccharomyces cerevisiae genomic sequence, its genes and th eir products, the phenotypes of its mutants, and the literature suppor ting these data, The amount of information and the number of features provided by SGD have increased greatly following the release of the S. cerevisiae genomic sequence, which is currently the only complete sequ ence of a eukaryotic genome, SGD aids researchers by providing not onl y basic information, but also tools such as sequence similarity search ing that lead to detailed information about features of the genome and relationships between genes. SGD presents information using a variety of user-friendly, dynamically created graphical displays illustrating physical, genetic and sequence feature maps, SGD can be accessed via the World Wide Web at http://genome-www.stanford.edu/Saccharomyces/
