- 27 May 2011 - New - Release of UCSC Genes for Mouse -

+ 16 June 2011 - + Re-engineered OMIM Tracks Released

- We've released an updated set of UCSC Genes for the mm9 - (NCBI Build 37) mouse Genome Browser. This version of the - gene set was generated using the same computational - pipeline as the previous mm9 UCSC Genes, but is based on - more recent GenBank data. -

- The new release has 55,419 total transcripts, compared with - 49,409 in the previous version. The total number of canonical - genes has increased from 27,389 to 28,661. + We announce today the release of our newly re-engineered OMIM + (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man) tracks for both hg18 and + hg19. With the kind assistance of Ada Hamosh (director), + Joanna Amberger and Francois Schiettecatte of the OMIM project, + we have divided the OMIM records into three separate tracks: +

+

+ OMIM Allelic Variant SNPs +
        + Variants in the OMIM database that have associated dbSNP identifiers. +

+ +

+ OMIM Genes +
        + The genomic positions of gene entries in the OMIM database. + The coloring indicates the associated OMIM phenotype class. +

+ +

+ OMIM Phenotypes - Gene Unknown +
        + Regions known to be associated with a phenotype, but for which no + specific gene is known to be causative. This track also includes + known multi-gene syndromes. +

+ +

+ The new tracks can be found in the Phenotype and Disease Associations + track group below the browser graphic + and are searchable by OMIM number. In most cases, + simply typing the 6-digit MIM number into the position/search box + on the Browser will take you to the record. +

+ +

+ The OMIM data are the property of Johns Hopkins University and + will not be available for download from UCSC. Please contact the + OMIM project at omim.org for download information. +

+ +

+ UCSC thanks engineers Fan Hsu, Brooke Rhead and Robert Kuhn for + this release. +

- Comparing the new gene set with the previous version: -

    -
  • 33,977 transcripts did not change between versions -
  • 69 transcripts were not carried forward to the new version -
  • 13,701 transcripts are compatible with those in the - previous set -
  • 1,662 transcripts overlap with those in the previous set -

- 1 May 2011 - ENCODE - User's Guide and Usability Survey: - The ENCODE project has just published an overview of their ongoing large-scale - efforts to interpret the human genome sequence in the journal PLoS Biology. - - A Users Guide to the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements, - highlights the scope of data production, and provides guidance for locating - and using the data. - Read more. + 7 June 2011 - + Updated Lizard Browser Available: + We have released a Genome Browser for the May 2010 + genome assembly of the green anole lizard, Anolis + carolinensis (Broad + version AnoCar2.0, UCSC version anoCar2). + Read more.

- 18 April 2011 - - dbSNP 132 Available for hg19: - We are pleased to announce the release of four tracks derived from - dbSNP - build 132, available on the human assembly (GRCh37/hg19). - dbSNP build 132 is available at NCBI. - Read more. + 26 May 2011 - New + Release of UCSC Genes for Mouse: + We've released an updated set of UCSC Genes for the mm9 + (NCBI Build 37) mouse Genome Browser. + Read more.
