+        New UCSC Genes Track Released for GRCm38/mm10</b></font>
+        <p>
+        We're happy to announce the release of an updated UCSC Genes track for the GRCm38/mm10
+        mouse Genome Browser. The new release has 63,244 total transcripts, compared with 61,642
+        in the previous version. The total number of canonical genes has increased from 32,958
+        to 32,408. Comparing the new gene set with the previous version:
+        <ul>
+          <li>59,119 transcripts did not change between versions.</li>
+          <li>55 transcripts were not carried forward to the new version.</li>
+          <li>2,308 transcripts are &quot;compatible&quot; with those in the previous set, meaning
+              that the two transcripts show consistent splicing.  In most cases, the old and new
+              transcripts differ in the lengths of their UTRs.</li>
+          <li>160 transcripts overlap with those in the previous set, but do not show consistent
+              splicing (i.e., they contain overlapping introns with differing splice sites).</li>
+        </ul>
+        </p>
+        <p>
+        More details about the new UCSC Genes track can be found on the
+        <a href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=mm10&g=knownGene">UCSC Genes track
+        description page</a>.
