Bug fix to transcript_variation.allele_string.
A new dynamic page, GeneRegulationView, displays all the regulatory factors for a given gene; it can be reached via the lefthand menu on a GeneView page where the gene has regulatory information available.

This site presents an annotation of the first draft chicken
genome assembly, March 2004 [NIH press release].
The chicken genome sequence was determined by whole genome shotgun at
the Genome Sequencing Center at Washington University, St Louis. The analysis
of the chicken sequence involves an international group of scientists
including individuals from the US, UK, Europe and China.
This release of G. gallus CGAW contains some sequence that is not specific to chromosome W. A large portion of the sequence assigned to W was done so based on the presence of W-specific repeats. These repeats have now been shown to be not specific to chromosome W. Thus, the only portions of GGAW which should currently be considered specific to W are:
