Genomic sequencing of parasitic organisms is rapidly expanding, providing valuable data for researchers. This accessible public data facilitates scientific discovery through data mining and analysis.

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Parasitology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Numerous parasitic organism genomes are being sequenced and made publicly available.
  • Examples include Plasmodium falciparum, Leishmania major, and Trypanosoma brucei.
  • Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) projects are anticipated for filarial and apicomplexan species.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the importance of publicly released genomic data.
  • To emphasize the growing utility of data mining in parasitic organism research.

Main Methods:

  • Public release of genomic sequence data via the World Wide Web.
  • Data submission to public databases like EMBL and GenBank.
  • Data mining of the expanding genomic resource.
