Apis Mellifera MMP1 Gene Sequencing and Transcriptome Hits

Anja Buttstedt published Sanger sequencing data for the Western honey bee matrix metalloproteinase-1 (mmp1) gene on figshare in April 2026. The dataset includes raw sequencing files and transcriptome search results for mmp1 expression. The total size of the data files is 23.2 MB.

Use Cases

• Analyze mmp1 gene sequence variations from Sanger sequencing TXT files.
• Compare mmp1 expression levels across different transcriptome datasets.
• Validate mmp1 gene annotations using raw AB1 sequencing trace files.

Strengths

• Data files total 23.2 MB, providing the raw sequencing traces.
• Includes results from searches across available transcriptomes.
• Published under an open CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Dataset is small-scale, focused on a single gene.
• No column names or structured metadata are provided.
• Transcriptome search results may be limited to available databases at the time of creation.
