About the S. cerevisiae genome

Assembly and Annotation

The data on this site is a direct import of the Saccharomyces Genome Database dataset for the Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C genome. For this release a new genomic feature (2 Micron Plasmid) is introduced. No additional genebuild was carried out, but a series of blast runs was done to provide ESTs and other similarity data.

We have included S.cerevisiae into the Ensembl system to allow people to access the data through the Ensembl user interface (both for visualisation and data mining) and to provide cross-species integration through our comparative genomics resources (such as homologous gene links and protein family/domain pages).

The canonical data for S.cerevisiae is managed at SGD.

What's New in Ensembl 50

Saccharomyces cerevisiae News

There is no Saccharomyces cerevisiae-specific news this release.

General News

• Canonical Transcripts
  

  Canonical transcripts have been defined for all genes in the core databases.

• SSAHA
  From release 50 we will no longer be providing SSAHA sequence search. If you wish to run your own SSAHA sequence search you can download the files to generate the search hashes from our FTP site.
• Projections of gene names and GO terms
  These have been done as usual, between a variety of species.
• Stored peptide stats
  In order to improve efficiency on ProtView, peptide statistics are now calculated in advance and stored as translation attributes, instead of being calculated on the fly.
• Translation attributes for initial met and stop
  A script has been created and run which assigns translation attributes (value 1/0) depending on whether the translation has an initial methionine, and another depending on whether the transcript has a stop codon.
