30 July 2014 - New Rat (rn6) Assembly Now Available in the Genome Browser

We are excited to announce the release of a Genome Browser for the July 2014 assembly of rat, Rattus norvegicus (RGSC Rnor_6.0, UCSC version rn6)! This assembly is provided by the Rat Genome Sequencing Consortium, which is comprised of eight research organizations across the United States and Canada and led by the Baylor College of Medicine. The new RGSC Rnor_6.0 assembly contains a new, partially assembled Y chromosome as well as improvements to other regions of the genome. You can find more information on the RGSC's efforts to sequence rat genome on the Baylor College of Medicine's project page.

Bulk downloads of the sequence and annotation data are available via the Genome Browser FTP server or the Downloads page. These data have specific conditions for use. The rat (rn6) 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 this release.


15 July 2014 - New Shrew (sorAra2) Assembly Now Available in the Genome Browser

We are pleased to announce the release of a Genome Browser for the August 2008 assembly of shrew, Sorex araneus (Broad SorAra2.0, UCSC version sorAra2). The whole genome shotgun assembly was provided by The Broad Institute. There are 12,845 scaffolds with a total size of 2,423,158,183 bases.
