Improved Anopheles gambiae genome annotation through synthesis of ab initio and comparative gene prediction algorithms. Jun Li, Michelle M. Riehle, Yan Zhang, Jiannong Xu, Frederick Oduol, Shawn M. Gomez, Beatrix Ueberheide, Donald Hunt, Charles W. Roth, José M. C. Ribeiro, and Kenneth D. Vernick. S Genome Biol. 2006;7(3):R24

  • PMID: 16569258
  • The data set below refers to this new set of predicted genes, not ENSEMBL predictions.
  • ReAnoXcel-Feb-2006.zip [27.7 MB] – download and unzip the files onto your computer. There are two tab delimited files (.tab) that can be imported to other databases or can be browsed by importing into Microsoft Excel.
    • ReAnoXcel-lookup.tab [58629778 bytes] - tab delimited lookup table
    • ReAnoXcel-Feb-2006.tab [134122881 bytes] - tab delimited ReAnoXcel data table - update of ReAnoXcel-Jan-2006.tab to reinclude duplicate genes by duplicating the record of the duplicate sequence (only changing the display id).
  • Previous version: ReAnoXcel-Jan-2006-tab.zip [27.9 MB] is a hyperlink fix of ReAnoXcel-Nov2005-tab.zip [Removed].
    • ReAnoXcel-lookup.tab [55.9 MB] - tab delimited lookup table
    • ReAnoXcel-Jan-2006.tab [127 MB] - tab delimited ReAnoXcel data table - removed some duplicate genes (same sequence but located at different genome site, may be possible active transposable elements).
  • The original data files are downloadable at: ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/pub/omes/ReAnoXcel/
  • BLAST your sequence against the ReAnoXcel coding sequences
