We have compiled the DNA sequence data forEscherichia coliavailable from
the GenBank and EMBL data libraries and independently from the literature.
We provide the most definitive version of the ECDEscherichia colidatabase
now exclusively via the World Wide Web System:
http://susi.bio.uni-giessen.de/usr/local/www/ html/ecdc.html . Our database
encloses an assembled set of contiguous sequences. Each of these contigs
compiles all available sequence information, including those derived from a
variety of elder sequences. The organisation of the database allows precise
physical location of each individual gene or regulatory region, even taking
into consideration discrepancies in nomenclature. The WWW program allows to
branch into the original EMBL and SWISSPROT datafiles. A number of links to
other WWW servers is provided. A FASTA and BLAST search may be performed
online. Besides the WWW format a flat file version may be obtained via ftp.
The ftp version may also be obtained from the EMBL data library as part of
the CD-ROM issue of the EMBL sequence database, which is released and
updated every 3 months. After deletion of all detected overlaps a total of
3 588 706 individual bp has been determined up to the end of September
1996. This corresponds to a total of 77.09% of the entire E.coli chromosome
consisting of approximately 4655 kb. About 479 kb (10.3%) are additionally
available from Kyoto (Japan). Another 94 kb (2%) are available, but mapping
has not been confirmed. Thus the total may have reached 89.4%.
