蓝藻与植物和藻类的叶绿体一样进行进化氧的光合作用，是研究得最好的原核生物门之一，也是许多代表性基因组测序的对象之一。缺乏一个合适的比较基因组数据库一直是蓝藻基因组学的一个问题，因为许多涉及生理功能的蛋白质，如光合作用和固氮，没有在常用的数据库中编录，如簇同源蛋白（COG）。CyanoClust是由程序Gclust产生的蓝藻和质体的同源群的数据库。我们已经开发了一个web服务器系统的蛋白质同源数据库的特点蓝藻和质体。数据库地址：http://cyanoclust.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp/。
Cyanobacteria, which perform oxygen-evolving photosynthesis as do chloroplasts of plants and algae, are one of the best-studied prokaryotic phyla and one from which many representative genomes have been sequenced. Lack of a suitable comparative genomic database has been a problem in cyanobacterial genomics because many proteins involved in physiological functions such as photosynthesis and nitrogen fixation are not catalogued in commonly used databases, such as Clusters of Orthologous Proteins (COG). CyanoClust is a database of homolog groups in cyanobacteria and plastids that are produced by the program Gclust. We have developed a web-server system for the protein homology database featuring cyanobacteria and plastids. Database URL: http://cyanoclust.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp/.
