The Chromobacterium violaceum ATCC 12472 genome is 4.75 Million bp long and contains approximately 4529
predicted genes.
The sequence was released 09/23/2003 by the LNCC - Laboratorio Nacional de Computacao Cientifica, and was described
in Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A :11660-5 (2003) "The complete genome sequence of Chromobacterium violaceum reveals remarkable and exploitable bacterial adaptability.
"
Abstract: Chromobacterium violaceum is one of millions of species of free-living microorganisms that populate the soil and water in the extant areas of tropical biodiversity around the world. Its complete genome sequence reveals (i) extensive alternative pathways for energy generation, (ii) approximately 500 ORFs for transport-related proteins, (iii) complex and extensive systems for stress adaptation and motility, and (iv) widespread utilization of quorum sensing for control of inducible...

Sample position queries
A genome position can be specified by chromosomal coordinate range, COG
ID, or keywords from the GenBank or TIGR description of a gene.
The available chromosome/plasmid names are:
| Browser Chrom/Plasmid Name | Length (bp) | GC Content (%) | Gene Count | NCBI RefSeq Accession |
| chr | 4751080 | 64.83 | 4529 | NC_005085 |
The following list shows examples of valid position queries for this
genome:
| Request: | Genome Browser Response: |
| chr | Displays the entire sequence "chr" in the browser window |
| chr:1-10000 | Displays first ten thousand bases of the sequence "chr" |
| transporter | Lists all genes with "transporter" in the name or description |
| CV0010 | Display genome at position of gene CV0010 |

The Archaeal Genome Browsers at UCSC were developed by members of the
Lowe Lab (Kevin Schneider,
Katherine Pollard, Andy Pohl, Todd Lowe) and Robert Baertsch, with significant support from
the UCSC Human Genome
Browser group.
The Archaeal Browsers are run by a slightly modified
version of the UCSC Human Genome
Browser system. All queries, bug reports, content corrections, suggested improvements,
and new track data submissions should be sent to Todd Lowe (lowe
