 <H2>Description</H2>
 <P>
 This track shows $organism genome high-confidence gene annotations from the
 <A HREF="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/CCDS/CcdsBrowse.cgi" TARGET=_blank>Consensus 
 Coding Sequence (CCDS) project</A>. This project is a collaborative effort 
 to identify a core set of 
 $organism protein-coding regions that are consistently annotated and of high 
 quality. The long-term goal is to support convergence towards a standard set 
 of gene annotations on the $organism genome.

 <H2>Methods</H2>
 <P>
 CDS annotations of the $organism genome were obtained from two sources:
 <A HREF="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/refseq/" TARGET=_blank>NCBI 
 RefSeq</A> and a union of the gene annotations from 
 <A HREF="http://www.ensembl.org/index.html" TARGET=_blank>Ensembl</A> and 
 <A HREF="http://vega.archive.ensembl.org/index.html" TARGET=_blank>Vega</A>, collectively known 
 as <EM>Hinxton</EM>.</P>
 <P>
 Genes with identical CDS genomic coordinates in both sets become CCDS 
 candidates. The genes undergo a quality evaluation, which must be approved by 
 all collaborators. The following criteria are currently used to assess each
 gene: 
 <UL>
 <LI> an initiating ATG (Exception: a non-ATG translation start codon is 
 annotated if it has sufficient experimental support), a valid stop codon, and 
 no in-frame stop codons (Exception: selenoproteins, which contain a TGA codon 
 that is known to be translated to a selenocysteine instead of functioning as 
 a stop codon) 
 <LI> ability to be translated from the genome reference sequence without frameshifts
 <LI> recognizable splicing sites
 <LI> no intersection with putative pseudogene predictions
 <LI> supporting transcripts and protein homology
 <LI> conservation evidence with other species
 </UL></P>
 <P>
 A unique CCDS ID is assigned to the CCDS, which links together all gene 
 annotations with the same CDS.  CCDS gene annotations are under continuous
 review, with periodic updates to this track.
