Proper Citation: BacMap: Bacterial Genome Atlas (RRID:SCR_006988)
Description: An interactive visual database containing hundreds of fully labeled, zoomable, and searchable maps of bacterial genomes. It uses a visualization tool (CGView) to generate high-resolution circular genome maps from sequence feature information. Each map includes an interface that allows the image to be expanded and rotated. In the default view, identified genes are drawn to scale and colored according to coding directions. When a region of interest is expanded, gene labels are displayed. Each label is hyperlinked to a custom ''gene card'' which provides several fields of information concerning the corresponding DNA and protein sequences. Each genome map is searchable via a local BLAST search and a gene name/synonym search. A complete listing of the species and strains in the BacMap database is available on the BacMap homepage. Below each species/strain name is a list of the sequenced chromosomes and plasmids that are available. Some features of BacMap include: * Maps are available for 2023 bacterial chromosomes. * Each map supports zooming and rotation. * Map gene labels are hyperlinked to detailed textual annotations. * Maps can be explored manually, or with the help of BacMap''s built in text search and BLAST search. * A written synopsis of each bacterial species is provided. * Several charts illustrating the proteomic and genomic characteristics of each chromosome are available. * Flat file versions of the BacMap gene annotations, gene sequences and protein sequences can be downloaded. BacMap can be used to: * Obtain basic genome statistics. * Visualize the genomic context of genes. * Search for orthologues and paralogues in a genome of interest. * Search for conserved operon structure. * Look for gene content differences between bacterial species. * Obtain pre-calculated annotations for bacterial genes of interest.
