With the growing number of genomes becoming available, a software environment is needed to produce accurate and consistent annotations. The SEED is that environment. We provide a public SEED-Viewer that allows read-only access to the latest data and annotations. For users interested in editing and learning how to use the system, we also provide a Trial-SEED. As described in our manifesto the annotation is not performed on a gene by gene basis per genome, but rather by subsystem by an expert curator across many genomes at a time.
We make all our software and data available for download and use on our DownloadPage page.
- When using the SEED, please cite: Overbeek et al., Acids Res 33(17), 2005 (Supplementary material)
- Our approaches to annotation, gene calling etc are outlined in a series of Standard Operating Procedures.
