We have compiled a useful set of predicted genes for C. briggsae based on the "Curated Hybrid Genes" track at
Wormbase.
These are "best" gene predictions that have been selected from the raw gene set on several criteria:
(1) whether the gene has a mutual-best-hit ortholog in C. elegans; (2) whether the gene has a high-similarity hit in C. elegans;
(3) whether multiple gene prediction programs produce the same or similar structure. The detailed method is described in
Stein et al., 2003.
To enhance the utility of the hybrid genes data set, we compiled CDS segments for each gene along with its protein name, WormBase gene ID, and
best BLASTp hit to C. elegans.
