Preliminary Release of S. cerevisiae strain W303 sequences. 12/7/2012 This directory contains 4 files describing the genome of W303-derivative S. cerevisiae strain K6001 (PMID:22977733; WGS ID: ALAV00000000). The genome sequence was provided by Markus Ralser from the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics. The files are: a genome fasta file: W303_MPG_2012_ALAV00000000.fsa a nucleic acid coding sequence file: W303_ALAV00000000_cds.fsa a protein sequence file: W303_ALAV00000000_pep.fsa a GFF file: W303_ALAV00000000.gff Feature definitions (for coding sequences and features in the gff file) were assigned using Jim Kent's liftOver program with a blat alignment vs. the R64 (current) S288C reference sequence. This assembly contains 358 contigs (coverage: 378X, mean contig size: 44420, N50: 262 kb). Using liftOver, 6476 SGD gene features were found in the assembly.
