WormBook chapters

ticket #5092 with reference to #5080 https://github.com/WormBase/website/issues/5092

• Discussion on making available on WormBase the chapters we wrote for the WormBook.

• There are 11 chapters so far -anatomy, genomic data, gene expression, phenotype, GO, Human disease, intermine, nomenclature, Process&Pathway, website, sequence homology.

• They could serve as a User guide and are up-to-date. Would be good to have them published. Better to have them on WormBook? Status?

WS257

• models deadline, upload dates etc.

AGR working group updates/action items

• Orthology
  • Panther data in WormMine
    • Orthology data in WormMine seems *not* to come from WormBase / AceDB
    • Need clarification on (a) what version of Panther was loaded, and (b) how it was loaded
  • Desired update frequency
    • Proposal is to update orthologs once per year. Are we happy with that?
    • Should we adjust our update cycle to accommodate this?
• Use case
• Disease-phenotype
  • We will need to produce a data file that has all of the disease data since disease data is not available from WormMine

2017 Worm Meeting

• Workshop proposals deadline: 15th November 2016
