Synchronisation with GenBank / EMBL:
------------------------------------

No synchronisation issues


There are no gaps remaining in the genome sequence

New Data:
---------
+Manually curated binding site data taken from publications.

+New Uniprot database released, WormBase has taken this opportunity to revise our 
 protein naming convention from Uniprot IDs to Accession numbers.

             eg. SW:3BP5_MOUSE will now be named Q9Z131

+~300 GFP pictures.

New Fixes:
----------
+Landmark genes back in gff files.

+Oligo_set data is now connected to Coding_transcripts objects to capture instances 
 where the Oligo_set data only overlapped UTR sequence these associations were 
 previously missed.


Known Problems:
--------------

Other Changes:

Proposed Changes / Forthcoming Data:

Quick installation guide for UNIX/Linux systems
-----------------------------------------------

1. Create a new directory to contain your copy of WormBase,
        e.g. /users/yourname/wormbase

2. Unpack and untar all of the database.*.tar.gz files into
        this directory. You will need approximately 2-3 Gb of disk space.

3. Obtain and install a suitable acedb binary for your system
        (available from www.acedb.org).

4. Use the acedb 'xace' program to open your database, e.g.
        type 'xace /users/yourname/wormbase' at the command prompt.

5. See the acedb website for more information about acedb and
        using xace.
