DEG

DEG hosts records of currently available essential genomic elements, such as protein-coding genes and non-coding RNAs, among bacteria, archaea and eukaryotes. Essential genes in a bacterium constitute a minimal genome, forming a set of functional modules, which play key roles in the emerging field, synthetic biology.

DEG 数据集收录了目前可用的关键基因组元件记录，包括细菌、古菌和真核生物中的蛋白质编码基因及非编码RNA。细菌中的关键基因构成了最小基因组，形成了功能模块的集合，这些模块在新兴领域合成生物学中发挥着关键作用。
