Introduction

GAIA is a data analysis and storage system for genomic sequence and its annotation. As a data analysis engine it accepts raw genomic sequence and automatically adds significant annotation. As a data storage system, it incorporates such sequence and annotation into its database along with a record of experimental support for the annotation. It facilitates queries against the data and graphical visualization of the query results.

The system you are looking at is a prototype. It has incorporated some of the main concepts of GAIA, however, it is work in progress and does not realize the full thrust of GAIA.

The data in the GAIA 22 prototype comes from six sources:

• Sequence from the laboratory of Bruce Roe at the Center for Advanced Genome Technology at University of Oklahoma and annotated by GAIA.
• The Sanger Centre Human Chromosome 22 Project.
• Washington University Genome Sequencing Center.
• Keio University School of Medicine.
• Genbank entries relating to Chromosome 22.
• Sequence from the High Throughput Genomic Sequences (HTGS) division of Genbank.
