Find a gene family
Search the release index by gene symbol, identifier, defline, or ontology term. Target a single organism, one ancestral node, or the full release.

Search syntax
You can enter one or more search terms. By default, these terms are combined with OR, so a record is returned when it matches at least one term. To require that a record match every term, prefix each term with a plus sign. To exclude a term, prefix it with a minus sign. Wildcards are allowed anywhere in a term except as the first character. To match an exact phrase rather than individual terms, place the phrase in quotes. A trailing wildcard is added to each term by default; uncheck the option to disable it.

Search results
The original database displayed clusters in pages of 100, ordered from the largest to the smallest cluster. Each row included cluster size, node, identifier, a defline where available, and the distribution of members by organism. This static edition returns release index records: ancestral nodes, genome records, and named families. Read the full search documentation.
