+
==May 30th, 2024==
* Two tables added to SimpleMine for human orthology
+
===Entity association with references - Alliance ABC (Kimberly)===
* Now SimpleMine output has many columns (30+)
+
* Need to make sure we have the right classes in the ATP ontology for what WB wants to associate wrt transgenes
* We may want to give users the option to specify which output they want
+
** Variation
* Users could specify groups of data (with checkboxes): gene IDs/names, phenotypes, orthology, etc.
+
** Construct
* All checkboxes can be checked by default
+
** Transgene
 +
** Rearrangement
 +
* Suggestion: create a new child of allele: transgenic allele and use that for WB transgenes
 +
* Question: should affected genomic model be a child of entity?

 +
** Two billion dollars worth of research not published each year
 +
**Octopus.ac publishing platform
  
=== WormMine updates ===
+
==April 18th, 2024==
* WS258 adding gene class
+
*NNC pipeline being switched off locally and moving into the Alliance ABC.
* WS259 adding more info (almost all meta data) on variations, laboratory and strains, RNAi phenotypes (hopefully)
 
* Expression data in WormMine is problematic
 
* Many genes being annotated to the same ~6 tissues or so
 
* Resulting in erroneous data for some genes
 
* Chris will send GitHub ticket to Todd
 
* Todd will discuss with Paulo today
 
  
=== Gene Ontology ===
+
==April 11th, 2024==
* Some very complex terms becoming immediate children of root terms (e.g. "biological process")
+
*Caltech WS293 ace files ready for the upload

 +
** Data is still going to SPELL and enrichment analysis
 +
** Peter Roy asking about expression profile of a condition and find similar expression profiles (SPELL like analysis) but SPELL cannot currently deal with scRNAseq data. Wen says it is possible (regarding each cell group as an experiment). Can try loading the into SPELL. Doe it improve the function of SPELL? Only 5-10 datasets. These data are a bit different from bulk RNAseq.
 +
* Textpresso: good to have a presentation for other MODs to show Textpresso capabilities? Yes. Maybe during sprint review

* Now available for gene ontology and phenotype on live site
 
* Paper being submitted soon
 
* Need to change "Tissue Enrichment Analysis" link title under WormBase Tools menu
 
  
=== SObA for Gene Ontology ===
+
* There are features on Textpresso, such as link to PDF, that are desirable to curators but should be blocked from public access.
* Data source was server on Berkeley BOP; thought it was public but were discouraged to use
 
* Seth Carbon said we could use it but might not always be working; now it seems to be down or dysfunctional
 
* SObA for GO will be broken until we install our own local server (Raymond working on)
 
  
=== Dumping data for upload, taking over for Karen ===

* Karen will review the molecule curation with other curators at the IWM
 
  
=== Datomic meeting ===
 
* Matt, Sibyl, Adam, Todd, Juancarlos, Raymond sat in
 
* Raymond: thought Datomic would take over from ACEDB completely, but it seems we will still use ACEDB for some time for e.g. FMap
 
* Seems there should be an executive meeting about Datomic to make clear what it will be used for and what it won't be used for
 
* Several web pages and widgets are now being served by Datomic
 
* There's a question about how we now handle model changes going forward
 
* Juancarlos will send around link for newest Datomic querying tool; may require access for specific IP addresses

+
**professional biocurator assertion
* Wen will generate numbers for WS254 (resurrect WS254 ACEDB)
+
***ABC - no data
* Opportunity to specify/narrow scope of project
 
* Want to push community/automated curation, with curators laying foundation of data models, forms
 
* Promote LEGO curation; need to learn what needs to be said about plan going forward/what we want to accomplish
 
  
=== LEGO curation ===
+
===== View all topic and entity flags for a given paper and validate, if needed =====
* Phenotype curation in LEGO? Need to review phenotype-to-GO pipeline
+
* Search ABC with paper identifier
* Want/need a mapping of phenotype terms to GO process terms; may require context-dependent mapping (e.g. "dumpy" phenotype)
+
* Migrate to Topic and Entity Editor
* We don't make direct associations of phenotypes to LEGO models, although we do have "inferred from mutant phenotype" evidence code
+
* View all associated data
* Want a mechanism to automate conversion of WB annotations into LEGO models
+
* Manually validate flags, if needed
* Want a display mechanism that is user friendly, convert hairball into pathway
 
* We could focus on a particular topic/disease and collectively contribute
 
* Do we want to write a proposal to take existing, granular annotations (e.g. at level of mutation details) and map to LEGO model?
 
* Can we integrate the micropublication pipeline into LEGO model generation?
 
* How to assess the confidence of assertions?
 
  
=== Follow up on transgene question from user ===
+
=== PDF Storage ===
* Karen will contact authors of paper
+
* At the Alliance PDFs will be stored in Amazon s3

== April 27, 2017 ==
+
==January 25, 2024==
  
=== Gene Ontology data for SObA ===
+
=== Curator Info on Curation Forms ===
* All GO annotation data loaded at Caltech (bigGO solr database, 54GB)
+
* Saving curator info using cookies in dockerized forms. Can we deploy to prod?
* 100 species, 922296 bioentity (protein, gene product ...)
 
* [http://131.215.12.204/~raymond/cgi-bin/soba_biggo.cgi Testing site], try
 
  let-23, KRas (human)
 
  eat-4, SLC17A7 (human)
 
* Heavy querying may cause the server to go down; need to check why
 
* ~7 hours to load
 
  
=== AGR lexica ===
+
=== ACKnowledge Author Request - WBPaper00066091 ===
* Karen's SBIR, trying to get gene names from each AGR database
+
* I am more than willing to assist; however, the task exceeds the capabilities of the normal flagging process.
* Non-trivial, in some cases, to query out curated papers list
+
 
 +
* The paper conducts an analysis of natural variations within 48 wild isolates. To enhance the reliability of the variant set, I utilized the latest variant calling methods along with a custom filtering approach. The resulting dataset comprises 1,957,683 unique variants identified using Clair3. Additionally, Sniffles2 was used to identify indels of >30 bp, which numbered in the thousands to tens of thousands for most wild isolates. It is worth noting that variants identified with Sniffles2 have less reliable nucleotide positions in the genome.
 +
 
 +
* I am reaching out to inquire whether WormBase would be interested in incorporating this dataset. An argument in favor is the higher quality of my data. However, I am mindful of the potential substantial effort involved for WormBase, and it is unclear whether this aligns with your priorities.
 +
 
 +
* Should WormBase decide to use my variant data set, I am more than willing to offer my assistance.
 +
 
 +
=== Update on NN Classification via the Alliance ===
 +
* Use of primary/not primary/not designated flag to filter papers
 +
* Secondary filter on papers with at least C. elegans as species
 +
* Finalize sources (i.e. evidence) for entity and topic tags on papers
 +
* Next NN clasification scheduled for ~March
 +
 
 +
* We decided to process all papers (even non-elegans species) and have filters on species after processing.
 +
* NNC html pages will show NNC values together with species.
 +
* Show all C. elegans papers first and other species in a separate bin.
