Four new genomes added (M. tuberculosis 18b, M. lepromatosis Mx1-22A, M. haemophilum DSM_44634/ATCC_29548 and M. abscessus ATCC_19977).
Added plasmid sequence for M. marinum.
Added SWISS-MODEL links.
UniProt accession numbers corrected.
“Pseudogene” is not a functional category anymore. Pseudogenes are now displayed as framed boxes in the genome browser.
Added information for Rv2418c, Rv1327c and MSMEG_6914. Minor coordinate changes in few short pseudogenes in M. leprae.
New tracks available for M. tuberculosis and M. smegmatis.
Protein sequence files are available for download in the Releases section.

Essentiality information, and new ncRNA predictions added to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, from the publication of DeJesus MA et al. 2017: Comprehensive Essentiality Analysis of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Genome via Saturating Transposon Mutagenesis. mBio

Initial release.
In this release we gather several databases on Mycobacterium species:

• M. tuberculosis [TubercuList site] (release 27)
• M. leprae strain TN [Leprosy site] (release 2.1)
• M. marinum strain M [MarinoList site] (release 1.1)
• M. smegmatis strain MC²-155 [SmegmaList site] (release 1.0)
• M. bovis [BoviList site] (release 1.0)

Database schemas have been homogenized, merged and updated. New interface provided thought a Ruby on Rails application.
The old Mycobrowser interface is still accessible here.
