Name Evola
Aliases Evola: Evolutionary annotation database
Description Evola (Evolutionary annotation database) is a database providing ortholog information of H-InvDB human genes. Evola contains orthologs of human and 13 species' genes (chimpanzee, macaque, mouse, rat, dog, horse, cow, opossum, chicken, zebrafish, medaka, Tetraodon, and fugu). Viewers of sequence alignments and phylogenetic trees, transcript variants (Locus maps), and natural selection (dN/dS view) are implemented. Duplicate gene family viewer is also available.

Project name Genome Information Integration Project (GIIP)
Area Genome Informatics
Purpose # construction of "all human gene catalogue" # development of annotation technique based on H-InvDB # data integration of disease, gene expression and PPI information
Introduction GIIP project was a model project of METI, which executed for 3 years since 2005 to 2007. The representative institute of the commission was Japan Biological Informatics Consortium (JBIC) and also the other six research institutes took their parts. The aim of the project is to construct an annotated human gene database of the world highest quality, based on H-Invitational Database (H-InvDB).

Project name Life science database integration project
Area Genome Informatics
Purpose This project aims to facilitate the research and development in both industry and academia.
Introduction The project develops a portal site that provides various information on databases and analysis tools for life science which were developed by the projects directly sponsored by METI, or developed by the Institutes sponsored by METI. The second aim is to develop an integrated system to utilize the various outcomes related to METI, based on H-Invitationl DB (all human gene database) that was developed in "Genome Information Integration Project (GIIP)".
