inGene Ontology (GO) Terms for NCBI RefSeq Eukaryotic Genomes
Are you interested in more functional information about protein-coding genes? We’ve expanded NCBI RefSeq’s Eukaryote Genome Annotation Pipeline (EGAP) to include Gene Ontology (GO) terms computed for most protein-coding genes. We are using the latest version of InterProScan, which now includes analysis based on PANTHER reference trees, on all NCBI RefSeq eukaryotic genomes. That means having … Continue reading Gene Ontology (GO) Terms for NCBI RefSeq Eukaryotic Genomes
