Idea: Resource of mapped orthologuous genes from all standard model organisms like human, mouse, rat, zebrafish, fruit fly, C. elegans, fission and budding yeast.

Existing ortholgue information from genome databases (HomoloGENE @ NCBI) are automatically generated. In most cases, automated annotation leads to an under-annotation of orthologue information. Having a curateable in-house orthologue database, we can manually add weak orthologues as they are found by manual searches. We can furthermore add valuable hand-curated information on protein sequences on a project-basis.
