Mycoplasma genitalium
Gene Image Map

 Mycoplasma genitalium database overview  
The Mycoplasma genitalium circular genome of 0.580 Mb was sequenced in 1995 by The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR). The key publication describing this sequenced genome is "The Minimal Gene Complement of Mycoplasma Genitalium" by C.M. Fraser, J.D. Gocayne, O. White and colleagues, Science 270: 397-403, 1995. Approximately 1100 additional references pertaining to Mycoplasma species can be extracted from the Molecular Subset of MEDLINE (M.genitalium References). A comparison of the M. genitalium and M. pneumoniae genomes is presented in the bacterial analysis section (Mycoplasma proteome comparisions).

The core information in this relational database is the table of annotated records for each gene. MG001 through MG470 identify the gene records of M. genitalium. To these records analyses and links are appended, and from these, tables and graphics are dynamically derived. For a general perspective of the genome, go to the Gene Image Map and browse blocks of coordinates. Caution: The entire 580,070 base pair genome can be viewed at one time, however this large file can cause some machines to freeze. For a text discussion of the proteome and how it was annotated, go to the M.genitalium Properties file. Finally, browsing is facilitated by the Functional Classes, EC Table, and Biochemical Pathways summaries. For precise inquiries on the other hand, start with the Search capabilities and their associated tables.
