The C. elegans Gene Registry

The C. elegans Gene Registry is a centralized database that catalogues all known genes of the Caenorhabditis elegans, a small transparent roundworm widely used in biological research. It provides standardized names, descriptions, and details about each gene, ensuring consistency across studies. This registry helps scientists communicate clearly about specific genes, track genetic information, and coordinate research efforts effectively. By organizing genetic data systematically, it supports advances in understanding development, genetics, and biology through C. elegans models.
