E. coli BW25113_tryptic

This is the parental strain (Genbank #CP009273) of the widely used Escherichia coli Keio gene knockout collection [1].

An iPtgxDB was created by hierarchically integrating protein coding sequences from the following annotation resources:

Hierarchy	Resource	Link
1	NCBI RefSeq	CP009273.1; from 30/10/2014
2	IMG [2]	Integrated Microbial Genomes (IMG) initiative of the Joint Genome Institute (JGI); Ga0058822, from 12/08/2014
3	Prodigal [3]	Ab initio gene predictions from Prodigal (v2.6)
4	ChemGenome [4]	Ab initio gene predictions from ChemGenome (v2.0, http://www.scfbio-iitd.res.in/chemgenome/chemgenomenew.jsp; with parameters: method, Swissprot space; length threshold, 70 nt; initiation codons, ATG, CTG, TTG, GTG)
5	in silico ORFs	The in silico ORF annotations were generated as described by Omasits and Varadarajan et al., 2017

Only ORFs above a selectable length threshold (here 18 aa) were considered. The iPtgxDB was created using the hierarchy RefSeq > JGI > Prodigal > ChemGenome > in silico. Files were parsed to extract the identifier, coordinates and sequences of bona fide protein-coding sequences (CDS) and pseudogene entries.
