Ensembl .This release of Takifugu data is assembled into scaffolds, so there are no chromosomes available to browse. Use the BLAST link in the menu bar, left, or the search form, right, to locate data.
A few example data points :
This site presents version 4 of the Fugu genome, released in June 2005 by the International Fugu Genome Consortium. Takifugu rubripes has a very compact genome, with less than 15% consisting of dispersed repetitive sequence, which makes it ideal for gene discovery.
The latest assembly includes 7,213 scaffolds, constituting 390 Mb of the genome. 90% of the genome is on 1118 scaffolds. 74 scaffolds are larger than 1 Mb each and the largest scaffold is 7 Mb. Please refer to the Fugu Project's webpage for more details of the sequencing effort.
A full Ensembl genebuild has already been carried out (see the Ensembl live site for details). However the build is now two years old, and so we are running a revised genebuild from the available data. This pre site includes alignment of ESTs and cDNAs, and a full genebuild will be available in due course.
