Key Info
The Carbon Annotation Database and the Carbon-A model behind it are being released, having discovered 566.34 million new gene candidates across 22,617 species.
Highlights
- Thousands of the discovered genes have never been studied before
- Wet-lab validation was performed in well-studied species including cats, chicken, and arabidopsis
- Partners on validation include Active Site and UCSD
- More extensive wet lab results on previously-unstudied genomes are expected soon
