Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project

The goals of the Drosophila Genome Center are to finish the sequence of the euchromatic genome of Drosophila melanogaster to high quality and to generate and maintain biological annotations of this sequence. In addition to genomic sequencing, the BDGP is 1) producing gene disruptions using P element-mediated mutagenesis on a scale unprecedented in metazoans; 2) characterizing the sequence and expression of cDNAs; and 3) developing informatics tools that support the experimental process, identify features of DNA sequence, and allow us to present up-to-date information about the annotated sequence to the research community.

达罗刹蝇基因组中心的宗旨在于完成达罗刹蝇黑腹果蝇的常染色质基因组序列的高质量测序，并生成和维护该序列的生物注释。除了基因组测序之外，BDGP项目还包括以下三个方面：1）通过P元素介导的诱变在多细胞生物中前所未有地大规模产生基因突变；2）表征cDNA的序列和表达；3）开发支持实验过程、识别DNA序列特征以及向研究社区提供最新注释序列信息的计算工具。
