SGD_features.tab

The latest version of the SGD_features.tab file is based on Genome Version R64-2-1.

The SGD_features.tab file is updated weekly (Saturday).

NOTE: On 4 September 2004, the SGD_features.tab file replaced the previously
used chromosomal_feature.tab file.

File contents:

1. Information on current chromosomal features in SGD, including Dubious ORFs. 
Also contains coordinates of intron, exons, and other subfeatures that are located
within a chromosomal feature.

2. The relationship between subfeatures and the feature in which they
are located is identified by the feature name in column #7 (parent
feature). For example, the parent feature of the intron found in
ACT1/YFL039C will be YFL039C. The parent feature of YFL039C is
chromosome 6.

3. The coordinates of all features are in chromosomal coordinates.


Columns within SGD_features.tab:

1.   Primary SGDID (mandatory)
2.   Feature type (mandatory)
3.   Feature qualifier (optional)
4.   Feature name (optional)
5.   Standard gene name (optional)

Note that "chromosome 17" is the mitochondrial chromosome.

The SGD_features.tab file is complemented by GFF3 file saccharomyces_cerevisiae.gff
