Browse Genomes: C.elegans D.melanogaster mine modENCODE: query!!
The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) model organism ENCyclopedia Of DNA Elements (modENCODE) Project will try to identify all of the sequence-based functional elements in the Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster genomes.
The project is run as a Research Network and data is publicly available, with some restrictions on its use for 9 months following publication (see our Publication Policy ). This site is maintained by the modENCODE Data Coordination Center.
For comments, problems, requests and general information about the project please contact us at our help desk.
