“

Ensemble aims to provide a centralized resource for
geneticists, molecular biologists and other researchers
studying the genomes of our own species, vertebrates
and model organisms.

Introduction
Ensemble Genome Browser is a comprehensive
resource for vertebrate genomes that support
research in comparative genomics, evolution,
sequence variation and transcriptional regulation.
