+We are pleased to announce the release of the Genomenon Mastermind Variants track for the +hg19/GRCh37 assembly. This track is +composed of variants found in scientific publications collected by Genomenon Mastermind. Mastermind uses +software that searches for disease-gene-variant associations in the scientific literature. The +genome browser track shows only if a variant has been indexed by the search engine. +Genomenon Mastermind Genomic Search Engine is a commercial database of variants likely to be +mentioned in full-text scientific articles. +
++Genomic locations of variants are labeled with the nucleotide change. Hover over the features to +see the gene, the amino acid change, and the scores MMCNT1, MMCNT2 and MMCNT3, described below. All +other information is shown on the respective Mastermind variant detail page, accessible via the +"Link to Mastermind" at the top of the details page. +More information about this track and it's display can be found on the +track description page. +
+We would like to give a big thank you to Mark Kiel, Steve Schwartz and Clayton Wheeler from +Genomenon for making this data available as well as Max Haeussler, Conner Powell and the rest of the +UCSC Genome Browser team for bringing this track to life. +
+ +We are pleased to announce the addition of GRCh38 patches to the GRCh38/hg38 database. Without a release date for the next coordinate-changing assembly, incorporating these sequences is an important step towards providing the most up to date human assembly.
This release includes new tracks visualizing patch sequences; the Fix Patches track represents error corrections, and the Alt Haplotypes track represents novel patches (alt loci).
