TL;DR: The Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium is a community-based bioinformatics resource that classifies gene product function through the use of structured, controlled vocabularies and has been expanded not only to cover new areas of biology through focused interaction with experts, but also to capture greater specificity in all areas of the ontology.

TL;DR: This phase of the ENCODE project includes an expansion of assays that measure diverse RNA populations, identify proteins that interact with RNA and DNA, probe regions of DNA hypersensitivity, and measure levels of DNA methylation in a wide range of cell and tissue types to identify putative regulatory elements.

TL;DR: The Saccharomyces Genome Database has recently developed several new resources that allow the comparison and integration of information on a genome-wide scale, enabling the user not only to find detailed information about individual genes, but also to make connections across groups of genes with common features and across different species.

TL;DR: YeastMine is a multifaceted search and retrieval environment that provides access to diverse data types and offers multiple scenarios in which it can be used such as a powerful search interface, a discovery tool, a curation aid and also a complex database presentation format.

TL;DR: GO resources at SGD have been modified to distinguish data sources and annotation methods so that GO annotations from independent sources can be compared to those made by SGD to help keep the literature-based GO annotations current.
