Gene and EST Database

Assembly V4.0: The A. mexicanum transcriptome has been deep sequenced (15,000,000 Roche 454 short sequence reads and 50K Sanger reads) and assembled. The resulting assembly V4.0 can now be BLAST searched here. Approximately 89.9% of the 14 million high quality sequences were assembled into contigs with a total length of 542 Mb.

Gene Expression

The analysis of gene expression is being studied using microarray, quantitative-pcr, RNA-seq, and nanostring. These resources include:

New! We provide NCBI- BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) to compare nucleotide or protein sequences to our EST sequence databases. BLAST can be used to infer functional and evolutionary relationships between sequences and help identify members of gene families.
