Research

Individual strains from the F. novicida U112 transposon mutant library are available to the research community without charge (except shipping) and without expectation of co-authorship. There are two mutants available for most of the nonessential genes in the U112 genome (the "two allele set").

PSAT is a web-based tool enabling researchers to quickly analyze potential regions of local synteny, or conserved gene order, between a reference bacterial genome and any number of other bacterial genomes published on NCBI. PSAT currently supports synteny analysis for any of the published Francisella tularensis genomes.

PGAT II facilitates analysis of presence and absence of genes and the state of functional operons or pathways across multi-strain sets of microbial genomes. A draft version is available for comparison of Francisella tularensis genomes.
