Help Desk

• Issue #9539: I want to create a dataset of piRNAs and mature miRNAs in c.elegans and their target genes. is it possible? if so, how?
  • Wen showed the user how to download the lists of genes but no response.
  • Do we curate piRNA and miRNA targets? No.
  • Article about piRNA targets: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36737102/

WS294 Build

• Does Hinxton want to postpone the start time to Monday, July 22?
  • Caltech has three classes of data that need patch: Laboratory, Person, and Automated gene description. The new Gene description may not be ready until July 19 Fri. 2 pm PDT so Wen will need to rebuild citace during the weekend.
  • Another option is that Caltech send Hinxton patch ace files for WS294 on/after July 22.
  • Is there any schema change for WS294? No.
  • Wen will redo the citace upload this week.
