Duplicate distribution data:

We have  provided a file containing the number of duplicates found in each organism for each category. [TEXT][MS EXCEL]

• Note that this file was updated on 12/17/02 to correct an error in the calculation of gene proportions (all gene counts were correct in the orginal version, but the proportions of genes in each functional category were not).

Annotation Data:

We used the GeneOntology database (http://www.godatabase.org/cgi-bin/go.cgi) to derive our annotations.  Included here are the final annotations we used.  For details on how we used the GeneOntology data, please contact the authors.
