Phylogenetic distribution of genes

[Karen Rossmassler]

Hi,

I'm trying to determine the phylogenetic affiliation of a suite of protein-coding genes (pfam ID) from a metagenome on IMG/MER. How can this data be accessed? The main metagenome page has the Phylogenetic Distribution of Genes (Distributed by BLAST percent identities), but that table has no way of searching for a specific gene - it gives general information about which genes can be binned to which phyla.You can click on a gene set in each phyla and search that way, but only for one phyla at a time. On the main metagenome page, you can click on the protein-coding genes, and search by pfam ID, but there's no way to get the phylogenetic affiliation to display. How can this be done? How do you get the rest of the information about a gene, like its phylogenetic affiliation, as a display option in the gene cart?

Thanks,
Karen
