Global Query. Query all
NCBI Entrez databases in
one step.
Site Search. Search NCBI's WEB sites and FTP sites.
BLAST. Blast your sequence against sheep-specific genomic sequence.
e-PCR. Check your sequence for STSs and view in genomic context.
Entrez Gene. Focal point for genes and associated information.
Map Viewer. Interactive viewer for genome maps, sequence, and genes.
Taxonomy. The Taxonomy Browser hosts summaries of sequence resources and external links through NCBI's LinkOut.
Trace Archive. Collection of raw sequence traces from various sequencing projects.
UniGene. Organization of transcribed sequences into gene-based clusters.
UniSTS. A non-redundant collection of STSs with links to maps and sequence.

Welcome to the Ovis aries Genome Resources page. The sheep genome effort will generate an important resource for gene discovery, affecting health and biology and the growing field of comparative genomics. This page offers a gateway to sheep genome resources at NCBI and beyond. We encourage your suggestions.

Sequencing the sheep genome will facilitate the identification of genes that may provide explanations for the vast range of mammalian variation and help us to better understand the genetic basis of diseases common to both human and sheep.
