Aspergillus nidulans Genome Snapshot/Overview

Help

This page provides information on the status of the A. nidulans genome. Data on this page are updated once a day. All the data displayed on this page are available in one or more files (Chromosomal Feature File; GO Annotations File) on the AspGD Download Data page. The Advanced Search tool can also be used to retrieve chromosomal features that match specific criteria.

Genome Inventory (as of Jul 29, 2010)

This table reports the number and types of features annotated in AspGD, per chromosome. To get a list of all features of a certain type (e.g., Verified ORF, tRNA, etc.), select that feature type. To access more information on the individual chromosome (e.g., sequence, a listing of all features on that chromosome, etc.), select each chromosome name. (Feature types that are not yet annotated in AspGD are not listed in the table below.)

Summary of Chromosome Sequence and Annotation updates

As new data become available, AspGD curators update the systematic sequence and its annotation. This table summarizes the sequence and/or annotation updates made for each chromosome.

Select the chromosome number to retrieve the corresponding Chromosome History page, which provides details on all the updates for that chromosome. Current and past versions of the sequence and annotation are also available on the AspGD Download Data page.

If you are aware of additional sequence or annotation changes that should be made to the reference sequence, please send a message to AspGD curators. At this time, AspGD does not record sequence variation between the genome reference strain and other strains of A. nidulans.

Summary of Gene Ontology (GO) annotations (as of Jul 29, 2010)

This table displays the current total number of A. nidulans gene products that have been annotated to one or more terms in each GO aspect (Process, Function, Component). These counts include GO annotations made for ORFs classified as either "Verified" or "Uncharacterized", transposable element genes, and all RNA gene products.

Distribution of Gene Products by Process, Function, and Component (as of Jul 29, 2010)

These graphical views representing the GO annotation state of the entire genome are provided using a GO Slim (a high-level subset of Gene Ontology terms that allows grouping of genes into broad categories such as "DNA replication", "protein kinase activity", or "nucleus") tailored to Aspergillus biology. GO Slim terms representing broad categories from a single aspect are listed for each graph, along with the percentage of A. nidulans gene products annotated to a specific term that maps up the ontology to the GO Slim term. Note that some gene products may be represented more than once, if they are annotated to one or more GO terms that map to more than one GO Slim term.

More information on GO and GO Slim can be found at SGD's GO help page or in the Gene Ontology documentation. To obtain the GO data summarized in these graphs, please contact AspGD curators or use the GO Slim Mapper.
