FlyBase Mission Statement
The aim of the FlyBase project is to provide an openly accessible centralized resource for Drosophila genetic, genomic and functional data.
FlyBase Licenses and Availability
FlyBase comprises a series of electronic documents and information processing software, the reference copy of which currently resides at the Internet address <ftp://ftp.flybase.org/>.
FlyBase software is made available under either the MIT License (Expat) or the BSD 3-Clause.
All annotations and data produced by FlyBase that are accessible from flybase.org are distributed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0). Different licensing and copyright terms may apply for data provided by these resources that are not distributed by FlyBase.
FlyBase adheres to the principle of full and unfettered data access to FlyBase data for the entire scientific community, and is a member of FAIRsharing. FlyBase is also is registered at the re3data.org repository and is an ELIXIR-UK service.
We are now members of the Global Biodata Coalition and our application is under review with Core Trust Seal.
The primary means of disseminating FlyBase data is through our web site (http://flybase.org) which provides an interface with many options for browsing, interrogating and manipulating FlyBase data according to the needs of the user. In addition, the web site links to our ftp site containing all FlyBase data in a variety of formats, including various sequence formats, archival data, and the entire FlyBase Chado database.
All FlyBase data are available for download to other resources without restriction. In addition to our web site, FlyBase shares data with other major genetic / genomic resources. Most notable among these are NCBI and UniProt. FlyBase is the authority source for data on D. melanogaster and provides files (including whole genome annotation GenBank submissions to NCBI) that are used to generate reference files such as RefSeq. D. melanogaster GenBank/RefSeq submissions are updated annually, and power users are encouraged to use these stable annotation sets in their analyses.
