What's New in Ensembl 34

    • Compara database
      • Addition of pairwise (Translated BLAT) Mouse/Fugu
      • Addition of multiple alignments (Mercator/Mlagan) Human/Mouse/Rat/Dog
    • Display of regulatory factors

      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.

    • News archive

      "What's New" items from releases prior to the new website design have been imported into the database, and can now be accessed through a new dynamic page, NewsView.

    • Species statistics

      The statistics table on each species home page now shows the correct date of the last full genebuild, rather than the date of the last database update.

    • Schema version checking

      The 'schema version' entries in the core 'meta' table have been changed to hold the current version numbers. This allows the API to check that the software and databases are using the same versions and give meaningful error messages.

About the Tetraodon genome

Assembly

Tetraodon

The Tetraodon genome project is a collaboration between Genoscope and the Broad Institute (MIT). This Ensembl website presents sequence data and analyses provided by the two institutes.

The project was supported by the Consortium National de Recherche en Genomique and the National Human Genome Research Institute.

The genome assembly was performed using Arachne (Jaffe D.B. et. al. 2003. Gen. Res. 13, 91-96). This site presents version 7 of the assembly.

Annotation

Genes were annotated by Genoscope, combining evidence from Geneid, Genscan, Genewise and Exofish predictions with alignments of Tetraodon cDNAs to the genome. This was done automatically using GAZE (Howe K., Chothia T. and Durbin R. 2002. Gen. Res. 12, 1418-27) with a custom-designed configuration and gene structure model.

The annotation also includes 87 manually curated structures of a number of HOX and Cytokine genes.
