Efficiently Mapping large EST and cDNA sets to Genomic Sequences

E2G is a web based-tool which efficiently maps large EST and cDNA data sets to genomic DNA. The server hosts huge EST databases of a few GB in size in indexed data structure. This allows users to

rapidly detect new genes
verify the exon-intron structure of predicted genes
determine splice variants

in the uploaded genomic region of interest.

The Web interface provides a graphical view of the results. Alignments can be visualized and matching sequences downloaded for further processing.

Update: The recently updated version of e2g seems to be work fine with any Mozilla based browser, Safari 3 and Internet Explorer 7. Other modern Browsers may also work ...

Requirements:

a modern browser (Internet Explorer 5 or better, Netscape 6 or better, Mozilla, Opera 6 or better and Konqueror)
activated JavaScript

Older browsers like IE 4 or Netscape 4 are not supported!

If you're using MS IE, we recommend to use a version >= 5.5 for correct PNG (alpha-transparence !) visualisation. Moving the annotation bar and information window does function only with MS IE and Mozilla/Netscape browsers. Opera and Konqueror don't support controlling Mouse-Events with JavaScript. If something does not function like you expected, feel free to send an email with information about the browser and system you use to the server curators .
