Molecular signatures of the three stem cell lineages in Hydra and the emergence of stem cell function at the base of multicellularity.
Mol. Biol. Evol., in press.
we have updated the DataSets available at Compagen by adding Hydra vulgaris AEP transcriptome (454 technology) sequences. We also have included the "Tools" section. - Check News for details.
Compagen is a comparative genomics platform for early branching metazoan animals, maintained in the Bosch Laboratory at the University of Kiel. It stores various raw and processed sequence datasets along the evolutionary tree from sponges and cnidarians up to the lower vertebrates.
The idea is to facilitate access and analysis of genomic and transcriptomic data for workgroups that investigate “non-popular” model organisms without sophisticated online analytical resources. The Databases at Compagen contain selected raw genomic and EST sequence datasets available from public domains (NCBI Trace archive, EST). In addition to the public datasets Compagen also provides already processed data like CAP3 assembled ESTs, Unigene collections or predicted peptides.
