+ 10 October 2011 - Updated Yeast Browser Released +

We are happy to announce an updated Yeast Genome Browser for the initial release of + Saccharomyces cerevisiae, sacCer3. The April 2011 Saccharomyces cerevisiae + genome assembly (Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288c assembly from Saccharomyces Genome + Database (GCA_000146055.2)) was produced by the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD™) project.

+ +

+ Chromosomes available in this assembly: chrI, chrII, chrIII, chrIV ... etc ... chrXVI, + and chrM. See also: SGD™ genome snapshot/overview. +

+ +

+ Downloads of the yeast data and annotations may be obtained from the UCSC + Genome Browser FTP server or + Downloads page. + The S. cerevisiae annotation tracks were generated by + UCSC and collaborators worldwide. + +

+ We'd like to thank the Saccharomyces Genome + Database (SGD™). The S. cerevisiae Genome Browser and annotation tracks were produced by + Hiram Clawson, Greg Roe, and Steve Heitner. See the Credits page for a detailed list of the organizations and individuals who + contributed to this release. +

8 September 2011 - New Navigation and Display Features

We've added several new features to the Genome Browser that make it easier to quickly configure and navigate around in the browser's annotation tracks window.

Automatic image resizing: The first time the annotation track window is displayed, or after the Genome Browser has been reset, the size of the track window is now set by default to the width that best fits your Internet browser window. If you subsequently resize your browser window, you can automatically adjust the annotation track image
