About Subtiliswiki

SubtilisWiki is part of the Grand Opportunity grant (NIH RC2 GM092616) aimed at developing genome-scale tools and approaches to define gene function in the model gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis. This Wiki will serve as a the repository for the data generated through this grant and all the details of the ordered null mutant libraries that we are constructing. In addition, we hope this site will enable collection, sharing, and mining of data as well as community-based annotation. Finally, our goal is for this wiki to serve as a complement to the other Bacillus subtilis wiki SubtiWiki curated by Jörg Stülke and colleagues at the University of Göttingen.

Getting Started

Find information within SubtilisWiki by using the Search box to the left. Just enter your favorite B. subtilis gene or gene product. You can also browse our categories if you want to see what's here. Some sample queries are listed below, and you can always read more about searching on our Help pages.

What's New - Featuring posts from Subtiliswiki Blog

View Gene List by Gene Location

You can now view B. subtilis gene list by gene location. By going to the home page, look for the section called “Browse”. There you will find the link for gene list by gene order. You can also see the link by clicking here. (Read more)

Contact other B. subtilis researchers!

We created a new page with contact information for Bacillus subtilis researchers. You can access this list by going to the home page and clicking on “Subtilis Labs” at the top right, or by clicking here. If you see any errors or would like to be included in our list, please email subtiliswiki@gmail.com . (Read more)

Essential Genes List

An essential genes list page has been added, and includes links to each gene page. You can find the page by searching for the keywords “Essential Genes” or by clicking here. (Read more)

Signal Peptides

New signal peptides have been added to the “Domains/Motifs/Modification Sites” table on Gene Product(s).  Here is an example from the gene abnA. (Read more)

Alleles

Over 650 new alleles have been added to 163 genes. Allele data can be found by going to the “Alleles and Phenotypes” table in the gene pages. Here is an example list of alleles for sipS. (Read more)
