Here we present the Synthetic Gene Database (SGDB): a relational database that houses sequences and associated experimental information on synthetic (artificially engineered) genes from all peer-reviewed studies published to date. At present, the database comprises information from more than 200 published experiments. This resource not only provides reference material to guide experimentalists in designing new genes that improve protein expression, but also offers a dataset for analysis by bioinformaticians who seek to test ideas regarding the underlying factors that influence gene expression. The SGDB was built under MySQL database management system. We also offer an XML schema for standardized data description of synthetic genes. Users can access the database at http://www.evolvingcode.net/codon/sgdb/index.php, or batch downloads all information through XML files. Moreover, users may visually compare the coding sequences of a synthetic gene and its natural counterpart with an integrated web tool at http://www.evolvingcode.net/codon/sgdb/aligner.php, and discuss questions, findings and related information on an associated e-forum at http://www.evolvingcode.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=27.

Genetic Codes is a summary resource of the taxonomy of each record and assignment of the correct genetic code for every entry in the GenBank database. GenBank format by historical convention displays mRNA sequences using the DNA alphabet. Thus, for the convenience of people reading GenBank records, the genetic code tables shown here use T instead of U. The following genetic codes are described here: The Standard Code The Vertebrate Mitochondrial Code The Yeast Mitochondrial Code The Mold, Protozoan, and Coelenterate Mitochondrial Code and the Mycoplasma/Spiroplasma Code The Invertebrate Mitochondrial Code The Ciliate, Dasycladacean and Hexamita Nuclear Code The Echinoderm and Flatworm Mitochondrial Code The Euplotid Nuclear Code The Bacterial, Archaeal and Plant Plastid Code The Alternative Yeast Nuclear Code The Ascidian Mitochondrial Code The Alternative Flatworm Mitochondrial Code Blepharisma Nuclear Code Chlorophycean Mitochondrial Code Trematode Mitochondrial Code Scenedesmus Obliquus Mitochondrial Code Thraustochytrium Mitochondrial Code
