OMIM, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man; EBI, European Bioinformatics Institute; GWAS, genome-wide association study; HGNC, HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee; MOD, model organism database; DIOPT, DRSC Integrative Ortholog Prediction Tool; GO, gene ontology; SGD, Saccharomyces Genome Database; ORF, open reading frame.

a

MARRVEL, Model organism Aggregated Resources for Rare Variant ExpLoration (Wang et al. 2017).

b

The databases included at G2F are MGI (Blake et al. 2017), RGD (Shimoyama et al. 2015), Xenbase (Karpinka et al. 2015), ZFIN (Howe et al. 2017), FlyBase (Gramates et al. 2017), WormBase (Howe et al. 2016), SGD (Cherry et al. 2012), and PomBase (McDowall et al. 2015).

c

DIOPT score, number of ortholog prediction tools included at DIOPT (Hu et al. 2011) that cover both species and predict the displayed ortholog match.

d

In this column, “High” indicates that the ortholog pair has the best score among all pairs with both a forward and a reverse direction score and a DIOPT ≥ 2; “Moderate” indicates that the ortholog pair has the best score with the forward or the reverse search and a DIOPT ≥ 2, or has a DIOPT score ≥ 4 but is not the best score with either a forward or reverse search; and “Low” includes all other predicted ortholog pairs.

e

Mines (or MODs serving that function): HumanMine, MouseMine, XenMine, ZebrafishMine, FlyMine, WormBase, and SGD (Cherry et al. 2012; Smith et al. 2012; Howe et al. 2016).

f

Links provided for one of several repositories in the United States and overseas that have ORF clones, many of which are from the ORFeome Collaboration (2016).
