title: Gene database for the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
abstract: As an aid to the fission yeast genome project, we describe a database for Schizosaccharomyces pombe consisting of both genetic and physical information. As presented, it is therefore both an updated gene list of all the nuclear genes of the fission yeast, and provides an estimate of the physical distance between two mapped genes. Additionally, a field indicates whether the sequence of the gene is available. Currently, sequence information is available for 135 of the 501 known genes.
