Allele
An allele, or allelomorph, is a variant of the sequence of nucleotides at a particular location, or locus, on a DNA molecule.
Bioinformatics (journal)
Bioinformatics is a biweekly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering research and software in bioinformatics and computational biology.
See PomBase and Bioinformatics (journal)
Biology
Biology is the scientific study of life.
Canto is a web-based tool to support the curation of gene-specific scientific data, by both professional biocurators and publication authors. PomBase and Canto (gene curation tool) are genetics databases, Science and technology in Cambridgeshire and South Cambridgeshire District.
See PomBase and Canto (gene curation tool)
Gene Ontology
The Gene Ontology (GO) is a major bioinformatics initiative to unify the representation of gene and gene product attributes across all species.
Genetics (journal)
Genetics is a monthly scientific journal publishing investigations bearing on heredity, genetics, biochemistry and molecular biology.
See PomBase and Genetics (journal)
Genome
In the fields of molecular biology and genetics, a genome is all the genetic information of an organism.
Genotype
The genotype of an organism is its complete set of genetic material.
List of unsolved problems in biology
This article lists notable unsolved problems in biology.
See PomBase and List of unsolved problems in biology
Model organism
A model organism (often shortened to model) is a non-human species that is extensively studied to understand particular biological phenomena, with the expectation that discoveries made in the model organism will provide insight into the workings of other organisms.
See PomBase and Model organism
Model organism database
Model organism databases (MODs) are biological databases, or knowledgebases, dedicated to the provision of in-depth biological data for intensively studied model organisms. PomBase and model organism database are model organism databases.
See PomBase and Model organism database
Non-coding RNA
A non-coding RNA (ncRNA) is a functional RNA molecule that is not translated into a protein.
See PomBase and Non-coding RNA
Nucleic Acids Research
Nucleic Acids Research is an open-access peer-reviewed scientific journal published since 1974 by the Oxford University Press.
See PomBase and Nucleic Acids Research
Schizosaccharomyces pombe
Schizosaccharomyces pombe, also called "fission yeast", is a species of yeast used in traditional brewing and as a model organism in molecular and cell biology.
See PomBase and Schizosaccharomyces pombe
Sequence homology
Sequence homology is the biological homology between DNA, RNA, or protein sequences, defined in terms of shared ancestry in the evolutionary history of life.
See PomBase and Sequence homology
Sequence Ontology
The Sequence Ontology (SO) is an ontology suitable for describing biological sequences.
See PomBase and Sequence Ontology
Stephen Oliver (scientist)
Stephen George Oliver (born 3 November 1949) is an Emeritus Professor in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Cambridge, and a Fellow of Wolfson College, Cambridge.
