A novel approach for assessing the existence and completeness of orthogroups in plant species
OGs are defined as descendants from a single gene of the last common ancestor of Viridiplantae.
KusakiDB is a database of protein orthogroups (OGs) that:
-- Correlates the information of three important databases, OrthoDB, UniProt and RefSeq;
-- Introduces a new parameter called “Evidence existence,” which is based on the physical existence of at least one protein (or transcript) in each OG;
-- Provides two new tools, known as "OG assessment" and "OG management", that compare OGs at a family level within 117 plant species or with user's data;
KusakiDB is available on-line.
Please see KusakiDB on Docker to run KusakiDB locally.
For instructions of 'How to use' KusakiDB please see KusakiDB tutorial.
