HOW TO SEARCH and QUERY EeelBase

Eeelbase is the European Eeel transcriptome databases.
The database entries correspond to putative Eel trascripts, chracterised by bioinformatic analyses.
Individual transcripts are associated to different kinds of sequence and annotation by similarity information.

HOW TO SEARCH Eeelbase

The database is searchable form the search page using keywords on all entry fields.
The result of such a search is a table listing accession numbers and descriptions of matching entries, linked to contig pages.

HOW TO BROWSE Eeelbase for MASSIVE DATA RETRIEVAL

The database in browsable: by combining searches of specific keywords in given entry fields the user can retrieve information about all the matching entries, as table separated values (TSV) text files. The special keywors “HAS” can be used to retrieve all the entries with a non empty content of one or more specific fields.
Indeed, the the user can customise the retrieved information.

Simple query:

using a given contig accession number
retrieving contig description and sequence information

eu_c19731	corticotropin-releasing hormone	GTGTTACAAGGTTCTTGATACACCACAACCGAAAGTGGGAGGAGGGAAT....

Advanced query:

Using “growth” as keywords on description field
using HAS on GO descriptions, to consider all the entries corresponding to contigs associated to GO terms
etrieving both sequence and annotation information
