=== Importing genes for tm alleles from GeneACE ===
 
* https://github.com/WormBase/website/issues/8262
 
* Nightly dump currently excludes tm allele genes
 
* Most tm (Mitani) alleles are not being manually connected to specific genes in GeneACE
 
* Should pull the data from WS release (into Postgres) after the build has mapped the alleles to genes
 
* ~100,000 alleles in Postgres; ~70,000 don't have a gene connection
 
* Would Hinxton be willing to take WS-mapped allele-to-gene associations and populate GeneACE with associations not already in there?

*Adam will add tables when we have them
** Expression
 
** Variants
 
** Disease & Phenotype
 
** Technical working groups
 
*** Technical call
 
*** Data quartermasters
 
*** DevOps
 
* Expression working group working on LinkML model with Gil (FB)
 
** Includes work on antibody class, image class, movie class
 
** Are species-specific anatomy ontologies being utilized for expression annotations or still just Uberon?
 
* Creating a curation interface/tool:
 
** Will require loading auxiliary data types in addition to primary data types (e.g. if we are focused on disease annotation curation, we will need to load genes, alleles, strains, etc. in addition to the disease annotations themselves) to be available to make connections to
 
** One requirement already expressed by curators is the need to generate new entities, like alleles, and have them quickly (immediately?) available for use in curation
 
** Maybe this could be handled by an Alliance central name server that mints new IDs (Alliance IDs and maybe also MOD IDs?) for the objects to make them available (also with a mechanism for these new objects/IDs to make their way back to the MODs as well)
 
** Micropublication curation forms have tackled a lot of issues of collecting lexica and entity names and IDs; should consider work already done with Micropubs

2. Need to make sure CenGen stuff is included in this next release - need to request Todd to delay release until Adam returns from vacation to deal with it.
  
=== hlh-34 expression ===
+
== September 16, 2021 ==
* Rebecca Mcwhirter (Miller lab) contacted WB saying that the annotations to AVJ for hlh-34 are incorrect. 4 evidences list AVJ -> the authors of the first paper that describes hlh-34 expression (Cunningham et al, 2012 : http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cmet.2012.05.014) had to pick one neuron per reviewer's request. The neuron should instead be AVH.
 
* Oliver is putting together a micropub to clarify the issue
 
* How to deal with existing  annotations? Add a comment in the remarks that points to the microPub? remove AVJ from the anatomy association list?
 
* Should we also add public comments to the relevant papers?

1. CeNGEN enriched genes per cell type data targeted for WS283.
  
=== Copying data from textpresso-dev to tazendra ===

2. some non-WB objects were present in the Strains and Variations lists coming from the nightly geneace dump. Juancarlos changed the OA population script script to exclude those.
* Michael has been asking curators to retrieve any data they might still want on textpresso-dev before the machine dies
 
* Can we copy files to tazendra?
 
* If so, do we need to have a more general approach/strategy other than creating new folders in the individual curator directories?
 
* Are there any size considerations for what we copy over? There are 1.1T free in /home2 which is not backed up

=== Textpresso Dev machine retiring ===
+
1. Help desk ticket on citing the bar graph / FPKM expression data from selected modENCODE libraries - okay to just cite WormBase or should the user cite additional, or other, resources/publications?
* Need to work out when and how to move things off the machine before retiring for good
+
* Okay to cite WormBase, but also ask user to cite the WormBase paper (for now NAR, but in the future, Genetics)
 +
* Update the WB page on citing WormBase
  
=== Proxies for Caltech-hosted tools broken ===
+
2. CeNGEN data on Gene page for WS282. A short blog to highlight.
* Several Caltech CGI tools using a proxy on WormBase site are broken (throwing 504 Gateway Time-out or Server Error)
 
* Affected tools:
 
** https://wormbase.org/tools/soba/soba.cgi?action=Gene+Pair+to+SObA+Graph
 
** https://wormbase.org/tools/soba/soba.cgi?action=Terms+to+SObA+Graph

=== 2021 Genetics paper ===

3. Server room in Braun power down for no apparent reason. Reset.
* Paul D has asked for contributions (~200 words each)
 
* Paul's preliminary suggested sections:
 
** CeNGen (CalTech)
 
** Expression & Transcription (Wen)
 
*** Spell (Wen)
 
** SimpleMine (CalTech Wen)
 
** WormiCloud - (Jae/Valerio Caltech)
 
** Vennter (Jae/Caltech)
 
** Gene Name Sanitizer (Wen/Raymond/Caltech?)
 
** VFP (Valerio)
 
** Author first pass (Daniela)
 
** Human disease (Ranjana)
 
** Molecular and genetic interactions (You/Chris)
 
** Pathways and Processes (Karen)
 
** Anatomy and Cell (Raymond)
 
* Now have 'Community Curation' for AFP and other community curation
 
* Also, gene descriptions section
