What's New in NRSub
Release 10.1 (December 1997)
- Complete genome is available.
- Total number of bases: 4,214,814.
- The only sequence is named BACSUCG, to follow the convention
used in the NRBact database.
- Integration of cross-references to gene families from HOBACGEN,
a database of homologous genes in bacteria, this under the
/gene_family qualifier.
- Cross-references to Escherichia coli orthologous genes are no
longer integrated in the features.
- Computed map positions with an accuracy in tenth of degree are
given for all genes.
Release 9 (September 1996)
- Total number of bases: 1,983,150.
- Integration of data from SubtiList 12.
Release 8 (July 1996)
- Total number of bases: 1,910,443.
- Integration of data from SubtiList 11.
- Integration of cross-references to E.coli orthologous
protein genes, this with a
/note qualifier. Cross-references
are made with SWISS-PROT.
- A Macintosh version of the database and of its retrieval system is now
available.
Release 7 (April 1996)
- Total number of bases: 1,616,172.
- Integration of data from SubtiList 10.
/xref qualifier replaced by /db_xref which is
now the standard for EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ repository databases.
Release 6 (October 1995)
- Total number of bases: 1,483,324.
- Integration of data from SubtiList 8 and 9.
Release 5 (June 1995)
- Total number of bases: 1,380,098.
- Integration of data from SubtiList 7.
- Sequences are now named following their position on the chromosome.
- The
DE field contains now not only the primary accession
number of the sequences used to build the contigs but also those of the
duplicates.
- Introduction of cross-references with bibliographic database
MEDLINE.
- Introduction of an
/alt_name qualifier for all the
alternative gene names.
/map replaces /genetic_map to ensure
compatibility with SRS.
- All ORFs have their own name, based on the form yxzN.
- All non-168 sequences are removed from the distribution.
Release 4 (January 1995)
- Total number of bases: 1,251,557.
- Integration of data from SubtiList 6.
- Sequences are numbered following their position on the chromosome
of the 168 strain. Sequences with the highest numbers are not
mapped or have been sequenced in non-168 strains.
- All the sequences use now a name of the form BSCONTxxx. The
form BSORIGxxx is no longer used.
- To retrieve the composite contigs, it is now necessary to use
the keyword composite instead of contig.
- WWW access is provided.
Release 3 (December 1994)
- Total number of bases:1,248,008.
- Integration of data from SubtiList 5 and EMBL 39.
- Moving of the contig coordinates from
/merge qualifier to
DE field.
- Adding of the coordinates on the genetic map for all the
genes in the
/map qualifier.
- Moving of the cross-references from
DR field to
/xref qualifier.
- Systematic addition of all the cross-references to SWISS-PROT.
- Definition of accession numbers for all the genes (protein genes
and structural RNA genes).
- It is possible to retrieve non-168 sequences using the
keyword non-168 strain. Indication of the strain name is given in
CC field.
Release 2 (October 1994)
- Total number of bases: 1,038,404.
- Integration of data from EMBL 38.
- Introduction of the contig coordinates in a
/merge
qualifier.
- Introduction of dedicated accession numbers on the form
BSxxxx.
- Non-composite sequences now designed by a name of the form
BSORIGxxx.
- Sequence names from the original EMBL database used to build the
contigs are replaced by their accession numbers.
- Introduction of the keyword hypothetical protein for accessing
directly all the ORFs.
- Systematic use of the gene names and products from SWISS-PROT
instead of EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ.
Release 1 (July 1994)
- First release of NRSub, for internal use only.
- Total number of bases: 1,005,179.
- Building of the original contigs starting from EMBL 37.
