S. cerevisiae strain RM11-1A genome sequence.

11/23/2015

This directory contains 4 files describing the genome of S. cerevisiae strain 
RM11-1A, a haploid derivative of California Zinfandel vineyard isolate 
(Accession: JRIP00000000). 

genome fasta file: RM11-1A_SGD_2015_JRIP00000000.fsa
nucleic acid coding sequence file: RM11-1A_JRIP00000000_SGD_cds.fsa
protein sequence file:  RM11-1A_JRIP00000000_SGD_pep.fsa
GFF file: RM11-1A_JRIP00000000_SGD.gff

FASTA headers in each of the files include the following pieces of information:

genome fasta file: 
 GenBank GI number
 GenBank accession.version
 species name
 strain name
 scaffold number
 contig length

nucleic acid coding sequence file: 
 ORF name_strain name
 gene name
 feature type
 feature classification (Verified, Uncharacterized, or Dubious)
 feature description

protein sequence file: 
 ORF name_strain name
 gene name
 feature type
 feature classification (Verified, Uncharacterized, or Dubious)
 feature description

Feature definitions (for coding sequences and features in the gff file) were
initially assigned via the AGAPE pipeline, which generated homology-based annotation 
using LASTZ and AUGUSTUS vs. the R64-1 S288C reference sequence in conjuction with 
ab initio annotation using MAKER and BLASTX validation. The genomes were further
curated manually by SGD biocurators.
