The total number of canonical genes has increased from 28,661 to 31,227. Comparing the new gene set with the previous version: <p> <ul> <li>48,739 transcripts did not change between versions. <li>423 transcripts were not carried forward to the new version. <li>5,108 transcripts are "compatible" with those in the previous set, meaning that the two transcripts show consistent splicing. <li>1,037 transcripts overlap with those in the previous set. </ul> <p> More details about the new UCSC Genes track can be found on the <a href="http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=mm10&g=knownGene" >UCSC Genes track description page</a>. Also, please note that GRCm38/mm10 is now the default mouse assembly on the Genome Browser Gateway. <p> Many thanks to Brian Raney, Jim Kent, and Luvina Guruvadoo for their work on this track! </p> - <hr> - <!-- start archives --> - <font face="courier" size="3"><b>14 November 2012 - - ENCODE Tutorials Available at Open Helix</b></font> - <p> - OpenHelix and the UCSC Bioinformatics group have worked - together to give everyone free access to the newly - updated ENCODE tutorial until the end of February 2013. - </p> - <p> - The online tutorial suite teaches users how to access - the ENCODE data in the UCSC Genome Browser.
