Database Description
GenomeRNAi is a database of phenotypes from systematic RNA interference (RNAi) screens in cultured Drosophila cells. The phenotype database can be searched by gene identifiers, RNAi probe identifiers as well as with Drosophila nucleotide or protein sequences. Searches with homologous sequences from human or C. elegans are also possible. Integrated tools evaluate the specificity of long double-stranded RNAs (RNAi probes) by similarity searches against all predicted Drosophila transcripts. This site can also be used to identify pre-designed RNAi probes from available Drosophila RNAi libraries.
