GOBASE : The organelle genome database topic

Also known as
  • Add other possible names for this topic

GOBASE is a taxonomically broad organelle genome database that organizes and integrates diverse data related to mitochondria and chloroplasts. GOBASE is currently expanding to include information on representative bacteria that are thought to be specifically related to the bacterial ancestors of mitochondria and chloroplasts

The current version of GOBASE, release 19, is based on GenBank release 160 and was released in September 2007. This release includes an updated RNA editing interface and new editing data including insertion/deletion edits, and modified sequence download functionality to allow a choice between genomic and CDS downloads where appropriate. This release also includes 68,000 new mitochondrial sequences and 20,000 new chloroplast sequences, taking the total number of sequences in GOBASE over 1,000,000.

Notes
  • The organelle genome database GOBASE is now on its thirteenth release [September 2005] and contains 410,000 mitochondrial sequences including ~2500 complete genomes, and 128,000 chloroplast sequences including 43 complete genomes. Most of these are derived from GenBank entries, with some few being locally generated. GOBASE organises and integrates diverse data related to organelles, including nucleotide and protein sequences, taxonomic data, RNA secondary structures, and genetic maps, all of which are collected and verified by expert curators. The GOBASE interface includes search pages for sequences, genes, introns, exons, proteins, genetic maps and taxonomic data
