Following the completion of the genome sequencing and gene prediction of Mnemiopsis leidyi, a lobate ctenophore that is native to the coastal waters of the western Atlantic Ocean, we developed and implemented the Mnemiopsis Genome Project Portal (MGP Portal), a comprehensive Web-based data portal for navigating the genome sequence and gene annotations. The atp6 gene has been relocated to the nuclear genome and has acquired introns and a mitochondrial targeting presequence. This sequencing effort has produced the first set of whole-genome sequencing data on any ctenophore species, and is amongst the first wave of animal genomes to be sequenced de novo using solely next-generation sequencing technologies.
