The reference sequence (RefSeq) genome assembly is provided by NCBI using assembly instructions provided by the Genome Reference Consortium. The assembled genome is distributed internationally by FTP and the same assembly can be viewed in browsers provided by NCBI, Ensembl, and the University of Santa Cruz (UCSC).
The reference genome is annotated using an evidence-based approach that interprets ab initio predictions (About) in the context of alignment results of a) curated RefSeq records that are maintained independently of the genome annotation process; b) cDNA and EST transcript data; c) protein sequence data.
