About ASAP
ASAP is a comprehensive source of genome information for several enteric bacteria, including E. coli K-12 MG1655 and W3110. ASAP annotations are based on community annotation curated by ASAP staff.
Content
Content at ASAP covers genomes of many enteric bacteria, and is very extensive for individual genomes.
Using ASAP
Browsing
ASAP has its own genome browser, which runs as a Java Applet. On some browsers, this does not open to the selected gene, and does not allow clicking to a nearby gene page.
Searching
Entering ASAP brings up a query page that allows a fairly customizable search. A simple search on gene names is done by entering the name into feature name. Submitting the query brings up a list of features matching the query. The table includes the genome coordinates for any genes found. ASAP recognizes synonyms. For example, searching for groP returns pages for dnaK, dnaJ, and dnaB.
Clicking on a feature link brings up a display for that feature. The feature pages are in two frames. The left frame has links to a variety of information. The right page has lists of Annotations, Overlapping Features, Orthologs and Paralogs, Similarity Searches, Molecular Interactions, and Experimental Data. feature ID mapped to gene name (https://asap.ahabs.wisc.edu/asap/feature_info.php?FeatureID=114900
