Echinobase - The Echinoderm Knowledgebase

The mission of Echinobase is to provide the international research community with a comprehensive, integrated and easy to use web based resource that gives access to the diverse and rich genomic, expression and functional data available from echinoderm research and provides a critical data sharing infrastructure for many other NIH-funded projects. Echinobase is a focal point for the echinoderm community and in addition to supporting echinoderm research, Echinobase enhances the availability and visibility of echinoderm data to the broader biomedical research community.

Supported Echinoderm Species

Full support: The following species have full genome integration in the database, including gene pages, as well as BLAST, browsing via JBrowse, and data download:

Partial support: The following species have BLAST, JBrowse, and data download support, but no gene page integration:
