Caenorhabditis brenneri (photo TBD) |
The Jan. 2007 Caenorhabditis brenneri (aka: Caenorhabditis n. sp. 4. PB2801) draft assembly produced by Washington University School of Medicine GSC with the following data usage policy.
As described at WormBase: "This is a 20X inbred (one gravid female per generation) derivative of LKC28, which is conspecific with CB5161." Recently renamed to C. brenneri. Other conspecific strains: SB129, SB280. See also: Zootaxa 1456: 45-62 (25 Apr. 2007), Walter Sudhaus and Karin Kiontke.
A genome position can be specified by the accession number of a sequenced genomic region, an mRNA or EST, a chromosomal coordinate range, or keywords from the GenBank description of an mRNA. The following list shows examples of valid position queries for the worm genome. See the User's Guide for more information.
Request: | Genome Browser Response: | |
---|---|---|
chrUn:1-1000000 | Displays first million bases of chrUn | |
chrUn:1000000+2000 | Displays a region of chrUn that spans 2000 bases, starting with position 1000000 | |

BX950328 | Displays region of mRNA with GenBank accession number BX950328 | |
fog-1 | Displays regions of fog-1 genes | |

pseudogene | Lists pseudogene mRNAs | |
homeobox caudal | Lists mRNAs for caudal homeobox genes | |
zinc finger | Lists many zinc finger mRNAs | |
kruppel zinc finger | Lists only kruppel-like zinc fingers | |
zhang | Lists mRNAs deposited by scientist named Zhang | |
Taguchi,T. | Lists mRNAs deposited by co-author T. Taguchi | |
Use this last format for author queries. Although GenBank requires the search format Taguchi T, internally it uses the format Taguchi,T.. |

The assembly is 9.5X WGS coverage. The 10,292 supercontigs are displayed in the UCSC Genome browser as a single artifical chromosome chrUn with an artifical gap of 1,000 N's between supercontigs. The largest supercontig is 1,129,006, with 478 supercontigs larger than 93,185 bp (N50) containing over %50 of the sequence.
Bulk downloads of the sequence and annotation data are available via the Genome Browser FTP server or the Downloads page. These data have specific conditions for use. The worm browser annotation tracks were generated by UCSC and collaborators worldwide. See the Credits page for a detailed list of the organizations and individuals who contributed to the success of this release.
