Ensembl is a genome browser for vertebrate genomes that supports research in comparative genomics, evolution, sequence variation and transcriptional regulation. Ensembl annotate genes, computes multiple alignments, predicts regulatory function and collects disease data. Ensembl tools include BLAST, BLAT, BioMart and the Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) for all supported species.

Ensembl Rapid Release
New genome assemblies are now being released to the Ensembl Beta site .
All Rapid Release data, including release 65, has been uploaded into the new Ensembl Beta site.
The Ensembl Rapid Release website will remain active for the foreseeable future, however, the data and species set will no longer be updated.
