EcoCyc
( Encyclopedia of Escherichia coli Genes and Metabolism)
EcoCyc is a bioinformatics database describing the complete
genome (taxonomy of genes) and all known metabolic pathways of E. coli, including transcriptional
regulation, and membrane
transporters. |

E.
coli Genome Project (University of Wisconsin
- Madison)
The genome center at the University of Wisconsin
was established to sequence the genome of Escherichia coli K-12
strain MG1655 (sequencing of this genome was completed in 1997).
The site provides updated information about the sequence of E.
coli K-12 and its annotations, functional
genomics, BLAST
service and annotation tools.

EcoGene
Web Site
The EcoGene database (version 16, release date
5/6/03) provides information about the genes, proteins, and intergenic
regions of the Escherichia coli K-12 genome and proteome. EcoGene
serves as a source of curated genome sequence annotation for Colibri
and SWISS-PROT
E. coli records.
