You can sign-up to get these announcements via our Genome-announce email list. We send around one short announcement email every two weeks.
Smaller software changes are not announced here. A summary of the three-weekly release changes can be found here. For the full list of our daily code changes head to our GitHub page. Lastly, see our credits page for acknowledgments of the data we host.
+ ++We are happy to announce new GENCODE Gene annotation tracks, which correspond +to Ensembl 114, for three assemblies: hg19/GRCh37, +hg38/GRCh38, +and mm39/GRCm39. +For human, the GENCODE V47 annotations were mapped to hg38/GRCh38 and then back-mapped +to the hg19/GRCh37 assembly. For all three assemblies, the gene sets contain the following +tracks:
++The hg38 and mm39 assemblies also include the following track that is not available on hg19: +
++Details on each release can be found on the GENCODE site. This includes statistics on each release. +
We would like to thank the GENCODE project for providing these +annotations. We would also like to thank Mark Diekhans and Gerardo Perez for the development and +release of these tracks.
+ +We are happy to announce the release of the EVA SNP Release 7 tracks for 40 assemblies, which now includes bosTau9, ce11, and rn6. These tracks contain mappings of single nucleotide variants and small insertions and deletions (indels) — collectively Simple Nucleotide Variants (SNVs) — from the European Variation Archive (EVA) Release 7. The full list of assemblies that contain the EVA SNP release 7 track is below:
