About Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COGs)
The Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COGs) of proteins were generated by comparing the protein sequences of complete genomes. Each cluster contains proteins or groups of paralogs from at least three lineages. The current COG database contains both prokaryotic and eukaryotic clusters.
Content
The COGs database contains Clusters from both Unicellular and Eukaryotic Organisms. There are currently 66 Unicellular organisms and can be found here. The eukaryotic organisms are limited to seven organisms: Arabidopsis thaliana, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophilia melanogaster, Homo Sapiens, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Encephalitozoon cuniculi.
The following statistics come from Tatusov RL et al (2003).
The COG collection consists of 138,458 proteins from 66 genomes. These proteins form 4873 COGs. Unfortunatly, these COGs are not available on the website. Howewver, a subset are available from the initial version. The KOG sets contain 4,852 clusters of orthologs, utilizing 59,838 proteins. This is approximately 54% of the analyzed eukaryotic gene products.
