Wood, V., Lock, A., Rutherford, K., & Harris, M. PomBase – the scientific resource for fission yeast. Springer, Eukaryotic Genomic Databases. [Book chapter]. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-7737-6_4
Abstract
The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has become well established as a model species for studying conserved cell-level biological processes, especially the mechanics and regulation of cell division. PomBase integrates the S. pombe genome sequence with traditional genetic, molecular and cell biological experimental data as well as the growing body of large datasets generated by emerging high-throughput methods. This chapter provides insight into the curation philosophy and data organization at PomBase, and provides a guide to using PomBase for infrequent visitors and anyone considering exploring S. pombe in their research.
