Comparative Genomics

Ensembl Genomes provides cross-genome resources and analyses at both the sequence level and the gene level, using the Ensembl Compara platform.

Available analyses may include the following.

Gene analyses

• Peptide comparative genomics providing gene trees and orthology information (see statistics on protein trees)
• Gene families constructed from classification of proteins

Genome analyses

• Pairwise whole-genome alignments between selected genomes (see available pairwise alignments)
• Multiple whole-genome alignments for selected sets of genomes
• Syntenies calculated from genome or peptide alignments
