WormBase: network access to the genome and biology of Caenorhabditis elegans

Lincoln Stein*, Paul Sternberg1, Richard Durbin2, Jean Thierry-Mieg3 and John Spieth4

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 1 Bungtown Road, Cold Spring Harbor, NY 11724, USA, 1Howard Hughes Medical Institute and California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA, USA, 2The Sanger Centre, Hinxton, UK, 3National Center for Biotechnology Information, Bethesda, MD, USA and 4Genome Sequencing Center, Washington University, St Louis, MO, USA

WormBase (http://www.wormbase.org) is a web-based resource for the Caenorhabditis elegans genome and its biology. It builds upon the existing ACeDB database of the C.elegans genome by providing data curation services, a significantly expanded range of subject areas and a user-friendly front end.
