Browser Available
We have released the latest Genome Browser for the December 2011
Mouse genome assembly produced by the
Mouse Genome Reference Consortium (Genome Reference Consortium GRCm38, UCSC version mm10).
This version, which includes approximately 2.6 Gb of sequence,
is considered to be "essentially complete". The assembly includes
chromosomes 1-19, X, Y, M (mitochondrial DNA) and chr*_random
(unlocalized) and chrUn_* (unplaced clone contigs).
Note that the UCSC mm10 database contains only the
reference strain C57BL/6J.
Bulk downloads of the sequence and annotation data are available
via the Genome Browser FTP server or the
Downloads
page. The Mouse browser annotation tracks were generated by UCSC
and collaborators worldwide. See the
Credits page for a detailed list of the
organizations and individuals who contributed to the success of this release.

- RGD Genes available for rn4
We are pleased to announce the release of RGD Genes for rat
(Baylor 3.4/rn4). This track shows protein-coding gene annotations
curated by RGD. This track
replaces UCSC Known Genes as the main gene track for this assembly.
More details about this track can be found on the
RGD Genes track description page.
We'd like to thank RGD for providing the base annotations for this
track. The RGD Genes track was produced by Fan Hsu, Mary Goldman and
Hiram Clawson.
