With the annotation of genes in the human genome taking place around the world, it is necessary for a consensus of protein coding regions for consistency. The Consensus CDS Project is a collaboration between the National Center for Biotechnology Information, the European Bioinformatics Institute, the University of Santa Cruz, California and the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, to agree upon the identical gene sets and to make the data public.^[1]
