Expanding yeast knowledge online

Yeast. 1998 Dec;14(16):1453-69. doi: 10.1002/(SICI)1097-0061(199812)14:16<1453::AID-YEA348>3.0.CO;2-G.

Abstract

The completion of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome sequencing project and the continued development of improved technology for large-scale genome analysis have led to tremendous growth in the amount of new yeast genetics and molecular biology data. Efficient organization, presentation, and dissemination of this information are essential if researchers are to exploit this knowledge. In addition, the development of tools that provide efficient analysis of this information and link it with pertinent information from other systems is becoming increasingly important at a time when the complete genome sequences of other organisms are becoming available. The aim of this review is to familiarize biologists with the type of data resources currently available on the World Wide Web (WWW).
