Name G-compass
Aliases G-compass : Comparative genome browser
Description

G-compass was designed as a tool for the study of comparative genomics. It provides the data of evolutionarily conserved genomic regions and orthologous genes between human and 12 vertebrates (chimpanzee, rhesus monkey, mouse, rat, dog, cow, horse, opossum, chicken, zebrafish, medaka and Tetraodon). Information of ultraconserved elements (UCE) and copy number variable regions (CNV) are provided. Sliding window analysis and dot plot analysis are also implemented.

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).
