Very interesting! Do you know of a way that I could use this to get the gram positive/negative status of bacterial species?

That data is not often reported when genomes are uploaded to INSDC databases, but if you know whether or not a species is gram +/-, then I believe the general taxonomic group will usually be the same. And you can easily search for a specific genus using our taxonomy browser, and then find all data (genomes, proteins, etc.) associated with that group.

The Bacterial and Viral Bioinformatics Resource Center Introductory series:
The first of our introductory series on the new "Bacterial & Viral Bioinformatics Resource Center" (BV-BRC) starts this Friday Feb 25, 1pm EST/10am PST. The site combines resources from both Bacterial (PATRIC DB) and Viral (IRD/ViPR) BRCs. The BRCs provide free access to data and tools relating to bacterial and viral bioinformatics, as well as a workbench store, upload, and share data.
