Problems with scripts

  • curator changes to Mary Ann when no changes in the NBP comments are apparent
    • tm1108, tm1485, tm1497, tm1524, tm2179
  • curator changes for lines with WBPaper evidence - script should not touch these lines, while NBP data is not entered into the NBP comment table for these lines, the curator changes

Parsing new NBP data into Postgres

.rtf or .txt file is received by email, usually from Mary Ann:

*Move and rename file onto tazendra to /home/acedb/karen/mid_release_scripts/nbp_maryann
*Run parsing script on tazendra parse_maryann.pl*

The script should overwrite old NBP data and enter new data into the NBP field of the app_ postgres tables of the Phenotype OA.

Annotating NBP data in Phenote

Retrieve new/changed NBP characters

When the NBP data are entered into postgres, Mary Ann is assigned as curator. You can retrieve all new NBP records by retrieving lines based on Mary Ann.

Or search for one of the alleles you know to be part of the new NBP phenotype batch. Once that record is retrieved in the table, you can retrieve the remaining records by NBP date.

NBP Comment of 'lethal or sterile'

Allele gets annotated for sterile and separately as lethal. In both phenotype remarks, put: -->" Classified as lethal OR sterile by the National BioResource Project of Japan. "

NBP Comment of 'homozygous viable'

Allele gets annotated with NOT lethal -->" Classified as homozygous viable by the National BioResource Project of Japan. "

NBP Comment changes to 'homozygous viable'

If an allele was originally classified as lethal or sterile and is now changed to homozygous viable.

Delete the 'sterile' annotation line for that allele and check NOT for the lethal phenotype.

Change the phenotype remark to read: "Classified as homozygous viable by the National BioResource Project of Japan (NBP); originally classified as lethal or sterile."

Source info

Use the NBP remark as the basis for phenotype annotations. If the comment is only from the NBP, annotate the Laboratory field with FX. If the comment is from a known lab, use the laboratory field from that lab. If there is no laboratory associated with the comment, use nothing, we do not use the Person as a reference, currently.
