Genomic Database for the Yeast Saccharomyces

描述（由申请人提供）：酵母基因组数据库（SGD）的目标是继续设计、开发和实施一个包含有关芽殖酵母（酿酒酵母）基因组的全面注释信息的数据库。SGD将继续注释基因组，吸收新数据，包括来自其他真菌物种的基因组信息，并纳入正式和受控的词汇表来表示生物学概念。我们将继续保持和扩大与更大的科学界的关系，并进行技术改进，使我们能够更好地为用户服务。该数据库及其相关资源将始终通过万维网 SGD将继续提供S.酿酒酵母基因组和从公开文献中挑选的基因产物。新的用户界面和分析资源将开发现有的信息以及新类型的数据，如大规模基因组/蛋白质组学分析的结果。 这些改进将使用公开可用的工具，如GMOD项目提供的工具进行开发。随着新的受控词汇表（如表型本体）与SGD中的注释基因相关联，查询工具将得到更多增强。 SGD已经发展成为一个实质性的服务组织，并将继续为科学界提供服务，接触所有酵母研究人员以及真菌界以外的科学家，为那些需要有关芽殖酵母基因，其产品及其功能的信息的人提供服务。SGD将继续提供现有服务，同时通过应用新技术来简化我们硬件和软件环境的使用和维护。我们将继续与酵母生物学社区合作，以保持数据库的准确性和最新性，并在基因和其他遗传元件的命名中保持共识和秩序。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) is to continue the design, development, and implementation of a database containing comprehensive annotated information about the genome of the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. SGD will continue to annotate the genome, assimilate new data, include genomic information from other fungal species, and incorporate formalized and controlled vocabularies to represent biological concepts. We will continue to maintain and broaden relationships with the greater scientific community and make technical improvements that will allow us to better serve our users. The database and its associated resources will always remain publicly available via the World Wide SGD will continue to provide annotation and analysis of the S. cerevisiae genome and gene products culled from the published literature. New user interfaces and analysis resources will be developed for existing information as well as for new types of data, such as results from large scale genomic/proteomic analysis. These improvements will be developed using publicly available tools such as those available from the GMOD project. Query tools will be more enhanced as new controlled vocabularies such as phenotype ontology are associated with annotate genes in SGD. SGD has evolved into a substantial service organization, and will maintain its service to the scientific community, reaching out to all yeast researchers as well as scientists outside the fungal community to serve those who have a need for information about budding yeast genes, their products, and their functions. SGD will continue existing services while working to simplify the use and maintenance of our hardware and software environment through the application of new technologies. We will continue to collaborate with the yeast biology community to keep the database accurate and current, and to maintain consensus and order in the naming of genes and other genetic elements.
