FlyBase SAB topics
 
*Genome Space - can integrate data in different formats
 
**Cloud-based data integration
 
**File conversion done automatically - no need to write scripts
 
*FlyBase talking about joining [http://www.genomespace.org/ Genome Space]?
 
 
 
 
 
Protein-to-GO Tool
 
*Ranjana and Kimberly performing data checks for testing
 
*If file can get to Rachel and Tony, maybe can discuss this weekend (at GO meeting)
 
 
 
 
 
GO Annotator Tool
 
*Kimberly looking over
 
*James will make a couple slides to introduce tool and provide demo
 
**1-minute demo: can have file in XML/HTML format, can highlight, annotate a sentence, and save annotation as a link
 
***Demo: simpler = better
 
***Prepare for live feedback and discussion
 
 
 
 
 
Curation Status/Statistics Tool
 
*How many papers have given data types?
 
*How many papers have been curated, how many not?
 
*How many objects/connections do we have of a given type?
 
*How many objects per paper (average, distribution?)?
 
*Estimated number of objects/papers exist vs. how many we have curated?
 
*Do we care about types of flagging? Curator first pass, author first pass, etc? Yes
 
**All flagging types should be shown; combined and individual statistics would be useful
 
*Interactive form vs. static page showing curation/flagging statisitcs
 
*Tracking negatives (true vs false)
 
*Data types in OA vs not (microarray, Protein-to-GO output)
 
**Microarray data - Wen can write script to generate stats for microarray curation
 
*Curation stats per paper (Raymond): write comments in a remark field; traceable, transparent, available
 
 
 
 
 
Process pages
 
*GPML - may be able to automatically map Postgres data to GPML
 
*WikiPathways has color, formatting, labels, etc. so we can define types/views of different relationships (should follow standards)
 
*AWC-ON/AWC-OFF sample page: only single connection type; can be many different types, as we define it
 
*"Too many arrows" editorial?
 
 
 
 
 
Physical interaction curation
 
*On interaction OA (Tab2) physical interactions; 'Colocalizes', etc.
 
*Need to establish our data exchange with BioGRID; get BioGRID data in Postgres/OA (daily cronjob?)
 
*Interaction model was modeled to be compatible with BioGRID's data
 
*Revive curator first pass for physical interactions? To tag papers (in the meantime)

GO Meeting
+
[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2018|2018 Meetings]]
*How to make GO more expressive/inclusive
 
*How can GO represent more of the biology
 
*GO Extensions: LEGO
 
*Deeper annotations can help develop the "big picture"
 
*Phenotype-2-GO mapping: What is the purpose? How does it work?

CSHace merge with CITace?
+
[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2020|2020 Meetings]]
*PCR_product info discrepancies
 
*CITace data was overwriting CSHace data, but changed
 
*8 classes of data in CSHace
 
*CSHace data had never been read into CITace minus
 
*Proposal: read CSHace data into ACEDB and then read in CITace minus data (which would overwrite CSHace data with CITace data where there is a conflict)
 
*Can we assume that all CITace data is better/newer/more-up-to-date than CSHace data?

[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2021|2021 Meetings]]
  
Consensus Sequence tag in PWM model
+
[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2022|2022 Meetings]]
*OK to add, but leave as 'Text' not '?Text'
 
*DNA_text field instead? Xiaodong will run by EBI
 
*This data is denormalized from a PWM if both are provided
 
*Should only be used if no PWM is provided
 
*Perhaps this should not be added

+
* Continued discussion on sustainability
*Click on the button "Curation Statistics Page"
+
* CZI, single cell RNAseq for Alliance -> anything happening will be few months down the road
*Will show overall statistics per data type as well as per flagging method
+
** Data is still going to SPELL and enrichment analysis
*Working out details/aesthetics of display
+
** Peter Roy asking about expression profile of a condition and find similar expression profiles (SPELL like analysis) but SPELL cannot currently deal with scRNAseq data. Wen says it is possible (regarding each cell group as an experiment). Can try loading the into SPELL. Doe it improve the function of SPELL? Only 5-10 datasets. These data are a bit different from bulk RNAseq.  
 +
* Textpresso: good to have a presentation for other MODs to show Textpresso capabilities? Yes. Maybe during sprint review
 +
* Michael's presentation on LLMs - Named Entity Recognition (NER)
  
 +
==March 14, 2024==
  
WS235 Upload next Thursday (Nov 1)
+
=== TAGC debrief ===
  
 +
==February 22, 2024==
  
Microarrays
+
===NER with LLMs===
*24 new datasets
 
*Five new species
 
*We want to perform cluster analysis for end users (SPELL itself not capable)
 
  
 +
* Wrote scripts and configured an LLM for Named Entity Recognition. Trained an LLM on gene names and diseases. Works well so far (F1 ~ 98%, Accuracy ~ 99.9%)
  
PWM/PFM data
+
* Is this similar to the FlyBase system? Recording of presentation  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1S4kZidL7gvBH6SjF4IQujyReVVRf2cOK
*~5000 PFM/PWM data objects in .ace files from Stormo data set
 
*How the motif finder tool should work? (without using 1000s of GBrowse tracks?)
 
*Single GBrowse track that consolidates all PFMs/PWMs; one track with all 'binding sites' above threshold?
 
*Another tool to look for, for example, co-occurrence?
 
  
 +
* Textpresso server is kaput. Services need to be transferred onto Alliance servers.
  
Disease info
+
* There are features on Textpresso, such as link to PDF, that are desirable to curators but should be blocked from public access.
*Adding 'Disease_relevant_info' tag in Gene model
 
*Human ortholog pulled from OMIM by Hinxton/EBI
 
  
 +
* Alliance curation status form development needs use cases. ref https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls#February_15.2C_2024
  
Ranjana will do a blog item every Thursday
 
*Doing series heading, e.g. "Developments to GO"
 
**Updates could fall under same headings to organize blog posts
 
  
  
New RNAi clones from Ahringer lab
+
==February 15, 2024==
*Working with Kevin Howe as to how the new PCR_product and Oligo objects should be created and stored
 
*Ultimately would like (for all RNAi clones) to have a one-to-one mapping of best RNAi clones for a gene
 
*Gene pages could then display "THE" RNAi clone for a gene per library (e.g. Vidal or Ahringer), along with resource address/location
 
*If multiple clones per gene, indicate which clone is unique to that gene

 +
* TAGC
 +
** Prominent announcement on the Alliance home page?
  
Legacy phenotypes
+
* Fixed login on dockerized system (dev). Can everybody test their forms?
*Still have ~800 legacy phenotypes to add through phenotype curation
 
  
 +
==February 1, 2024==
 +
* Paul will ask Natalia to take care of pending reimbursements
 +
* Dockerized system slow pages (OA and FPKMMine). Will monitor these pages in the future. Will look for timeouts in the nginx logs.
  
Process pages
+
==January 25, 2024==
*Karen writing summaries for processes
 
*People can help cull the list and/or help write summaries
 
*Look at Processes in the Process OA by querying for "Karen" as a curator

=== Curator Info on Curation Forms ===
 +
* Saving curator info using cookies in dockerized forms. Can we deploy to prod?
  
 +
=== ACKnowledge Author Request - WBPaper00066091 ===
 +
* I am more than willing to assist; however, the task exceeds the capabilities of the normal flagging process.
  
== November 1, 2012 ==
+
* The paper conducts an analysis of natural variations within 48 wild isolates. To enhance the reliability of the variant set, I utilized the latest variant calling methods along with a custom filtering approach. The resulting dataset comprises 1,957,683 unique variants identified using Clair3. Additionally, Sniffles2 was used to identify indels of >30 bp, which numbered in the thousands to tens of thousands for most wild isolates. It is worth noting that variants identified with Sniffles2 have less reliable nucleotide positions in the genome.
  
 +
* I am reaching out to inquire whether WormBase would be interested in incorporating this dataset. An argument in favor is the higher quality of my data. However, I am mindful of the potential substantial effort involved for WormBase, and it is unclear whether this aligns with your priorities.
  
SPELL data
+
* Should WormBase decide to use my variant data set, I am more than willing to offer my assistance.
*Including new RNA-seq datasets
 
*Comparing different RNA-seq datasets
 
  
 +
=== Update on NN Classification via the Alliance ===
 +
* Use of primary/not primary/not designated flag to filter papers
 +
* Secondary filter on papers with at least C. elegans as species
 +
* Finalize sources (i.e. evidence) for entity and topic tags on papers
 +
* Next NN clasification scheduled for ~March
  
Dedicated ~2 weeks for issues
+
* We decided to process all papers (even non-elegans species) and have filters on species after processing.
*Dedicated time during release cycle to fix bugs and address issues
+
* NNC html pages will show NNC values together with species.
 +
* Show all C. elegans papers first and other species in a separate bin.
  
 +
=== Travel Reimbursements ===
 +
* Still waiting on October travel reimbursement (Kimberly)
 +
* Still waiting on September and October travel reimbursements (Wen)
  
Intermine
+
=== UniProt ===
*JD Wong started at WormBase this week; will focus on building WormBase instance of Intermine
+
* Jae found some genes without uniProt IDs, but the genes are there on uniProt but without WBGene IDs.
*Developed FlyBase Intermine instance
+
* Wen reached to Stavros and Chris to investigate WormBase and AGR angles.
*Once in place, we can build pre-canned queries that we can embed in WormBase pages (maybe in response to help desk inquiries)
+
* Stavros escalates the issue on Hinxton Standup.
**E.g. Display meta information for a gene; "How many genes show this phenotype?"
+
* Mark checks Build scripts and WS291 results. After that, he contacted UniProt and he's working with them to figure this out.
*We have resources provisioned for building and hosting
 
*Low hanging fruit: access to ontologies, gene models, phenotypes, homology, orthology (things already made for Intermine)
 
*Focus first on central dogma stuff
