Information on the database can be accessed at: http://pbil.univ-lyon1.fr/databases/hobacgen.html HOBACGEN is a database system that contains all the protein sequences of prokaryotes organized into families. It allows one to select sets of homologous genes from prokaryotic species and to visualize multiple alignments and phylogenetic trees. The database contains all sequences of bacteria, archaea and yeast taken from SWISS-PROT, TrEMBL and TrEMBLNEW, with some annotation modifications. It contains also all the corresponding nucleotide sequences from EMBL. Homologous proteins are clas- sified into families and multiple alignments and phylogenetic trees are computed for each family. This new version of HOBACGEN has been built using sequences from SWISS-PROT 39 (+ updates until September 29) and TrEMBL 14. Among the 154,132 proteins used to build this release, 131,917 are from bacteria, 15,389 from archaea, and 6,826 from yeast.
