Database Description

Xpro is a relational database that contains all the eukaryotic protein-encoding DNA sequences in GenBank. It provides detailed and comprehensive features about both the intron containing and the intron-less genes.

In addition to the information found in the GenBank records, which includes properties such as sequence, position, length and description about introns, exons and protein coding regions, Xpro provides annotations on the splice sites motifs and intron phases. Furthermore, Xpro validates intron positions using alignment information between the records sequence and EST sequences found in dbEST. The entries in the XPro are also cross-referenced to SWISS-PROT/TrEMBL (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/trembl/index.html) and Pfam (http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/Pfam/) databases.
