Sequence feature curation

• Gary Williams was curating sequence features for expression annotations, for example enhancer regions sufficient to drive expression in a certain tissue.
• We are not actively curating this at the moment but there are a couple of annotations that need Sequence Feature objects -found while cleaning up data for Alliance.
• In the short term there would be need to curate only Sequence Feature objects for these 2 existing papers, but to do so would need access to the F map?
• Example of a sequence feature connected to expression: https://wormbase.org/species/all/expr_pattern/Expr11278#02--10

ftp site synchronization

• GO is waiting for the WB GAF to complete their September release
• Are there still problems with synchronizing the Hinxton and WB ftp site?
  • If so, can we temporarily point GO to the Hinxton ftp site or will they have the same problem?
