=== What genes should be linked to genotypes? ===
 +
* We have a "Gene" tag in the ?Genotype model for capturing relevant genes
 +
* What should we consider a "relevant gene"?
 +
* We plan to populate the "Gene" tag with genes identified by the variation-to-gene mapping pipeline
 +
* For transgenes, what genes should be extracted as "relevant"? Genes whose promoters are cloned? Genes that are expressed? Genes whose 3'UTR's are cloned? Wild type rescue genes used as a marker/selection tool, e.g. "unc-119(+)"?
 +
* For rearrangements, consider relevant any genes "inside" the rearrangement?
 +
* For now, we will omit any genes from transgenes or rearrangements from being dumped into the "Gene" tag
 +
* In the future, we may want to consider genes that have been specifically annotated as having some functional consequence and informs that the gene is of functional relevance to the genotype

* [https://staging.wormbase.org/species/c_elegans/gene/WBGene00000912#08--10 daf-16 interactions]
+
* AFP group working on tutorial/webinar
* Venn diagram shows how various interactors have multiple interaction types with a common focus gene
+
* Had someone on phenotype curation tutorial specifically asking about it (Kimberly responded)
* For a given selected gene set, you can copy to clipboard, download CSV, TSV, and link to enrichment analysis or WormMine
 
* Very nice! It would be great to have the gene list options here available wherever lists are provided in WormBase (Sibyl working on it)
 
* Request: add SimpleMine as another link out (go to SimpleMine with the gene list prepopulated)
 
* Request: could there be a toggle to include/exclude high-throughput interactions?
 
* Request: The Venn circle labels sometimes get in the way of seeing the diagram; can they be moved to the side or possibly replace simply with single letters like "P", "G" and "R" for "physical", "genetic" and "regulatory" respectively? Might still need a legend?
 
* Request: Change the wording "Browse selection" to something like "View/analyze gene list"
 
* Where else could we implement a similar type of Venn diagram tool? Disease or phenotype annotations?

=== Open Publishing Festival ===
 +
* Had micropublication session yesterday, went well
 +
* Had ~50 participants
 +
* Saved Zoom chats? Can get public ones, maybe not private ones
  
=== New round of phenotype requests ===
 
* GMail really throttling email sending
 
* Chris will reach out to Google/GMail to see if we can:
 
** A) get a clear explanation about what their restrictions are and how they work and
 
** B) see if we can get a paid plan to help expedite the email process (see how much cost)
 
  
=== Aligning interaction data with GO and GO-CAM ===
+
== May 28, 2020 ==
* The Alliance interactions working group is considering proposing a greater alignment between GO interaction annotations (like "binding" annotations with IPI evidence codes, for example) and Alliance molecular interaction annotations
 
* Also, would like to propose a pipeline for possibly automatically generating GO-CAM annotations/networks based on inferences made from phenotype annotations, genetic interactions, regulatory interactions, and molecular interactions
 
* Much of this depends on genetic perturbation (e.g. allele/variant) annotation to effects, like loss-of-function or gain-of-function annotations
 
** Would be good to get a sense from other Alliance members the extent to which we could rely on the presence of such annotations
 
* Chris and Kimberly will meet to discuss further
 
  
=== Short SObA talk at Alliance meeting ===
+
=== Wormicloud ===
* Raymond prepared to give short talk on SObA to the Alliance group
+
* Introducing a new tool for a graphical summary of queried papers, Please take a look and leave any comments on it. (http://textpressocentral.org:5010/)
  
=== Single cell data visualization tool ===
+
=== Genes to Physical Map ===
* Eduardo will present to Paul's lab meeting tomorrow
+
* https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1e83jv94-eO_VQ7kKdJ36TgDDb4WRkFhM?usp=sharing
* Will discuss at Alliance expression working group pre-meeting
