  About the Pseudomonas aeruginosa 09/13/2000 (pseuAeru) assembly (sequences)
  The Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 genome is 6.26 Million bp long and contains approximately 5651 predicted genes.

The sequence was released 09/13/2000 by the PathoGenesis Corporation, and was described in Nature :959-64 (2000) Stover CK, Pham XQ, Erwin AL, Mizoguchi SD, Warrener P, et al.  "Complete genome sequence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA01, an opportunistic pathogen. "
Abstract: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous environmental bacterium that is one of the top three causes of opportunistic human infections. A major factor in its prominence as a pathogen is its intrinsic resistance to antibiotics and disinfectants. Here we report the complete sequence of P. aeruginosa strain PAO1. At 6.3 million base pairs, this is the largest bacterial genome sequenced, and the sequence provides insights into the basis of the versatility and intrinsic drug resistance of P....

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 @soe.ucsc.edu).
