Wish List

SubtiWiki is all about making a useful tool for the Bacillus community. It is thus very important to receive feedback on what the community needs.

Essential facts (what every gene page should have)

• Gene name
• Function
• Synonyms
• Summary (for not self-explanatory functions)
• DNA and protein sequence
• Essential?
• Genetic context
• References

Facts that would be nice to have

• Effectors of protein activity
• Interactions
• Localization
• MW
• pI

About the expression of the protein

• Operon
