Welcome to the Xenopus Genome resources page. This homepage will bring together information on Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis tools at NCBI and Xenopus community related resources. We encourage your suggestions. X. laevis (left) and X. tropicalis (right) adult females. Photo courtesy of Enrique Amaya What's New Xenopus (Silurana) tropicalis genome The western clawed frog genome,build 1.1, is now public in Map Viewer Map Viewer. Take a moment to BLAST your favorite gene sequence against the genome and explore the maps available for viewing. Learn more about the Gnomon gene prediction program and the resulting models available in Map Viewer. Xenbase Gene Name Guidelines Xenbase now provides official nomenclature so please note the section provided for Xenopus gene nomenclature guidelines. Xenopus Full-Length cDNAs Xenopus Gene Collection (XGC) has deposited over 11000 X. laevis and over 9000 X. tropicalis clones in GenBank.
