Curation Statistics
+
==April 18th, 2024==
−
*Wen can generate numbers for Citace AND the complete build (rather than Hinxton)?
+
*NNC pipeline being switched off locally and moving into the Alliance ABC.
−
*Will let Hinxton build the queries
 
−
*End-of-build summary for curators (with more database technical numbers) separate from the Release Notes for public (with more biologically interesting numbers)
 
−
*Will separate Wiki page into two sections to reflect this
 
−
*Public info will continue to be displayed in Release Notes
 
−
*Internal info - where should that be displayed?
 
  
 +
==April 11th, 2024==

*Caltech WS293 ace files ready for the upload
  
−
Postgres info table (on [[OA_forms,_tables,_scripts,_etc|Wiki page]])

==April 4th, 2024==
−
*Curators will continue to add info to Wiki on scripts, dependencies, ontologies, etc. for each Ontology Annotator
+
* Continued discussion on sustainability
 +
* CZI, single cell RNAseq for Alliance -> anything happening will be few months down the road
 +
** Data is still going to SPELL and enrichment analysis
 +
** 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.

*Multiple probes mapped to the same gene will be averaged
+
* View all associated data
−
*SPELL construction has changed; all data sets exist as separate flat files
+
* Manually validate flags, if needed
  
 +
=== PDF Storage ===
 +
* At the Alliance PDFs will be stored in Amazon s3
 +
* We are not planning to formally store back-up copies elsewhere
 +
* Is this okay with everyone?

−
Phenotype Ontology
+
==February 1, 2024==
−
*How stable/complete is the current phenotype ontology?
+
* Paul will ask Natalia to take care of pending reimbursements
−
*Good, but we may consider a reconstruction/re-ordering of existing terms
+
* Dockerized system slow pages (OA and FPKMMine). Will monitor these pages in the future. Will look for timeouts in the nginx logs.
−
*Group phenotypes by e.g. anatomy term, life stage, etc.?
 
−
*Link anatomy terms, life stages to relevant phenotypes (at .ACE level or website level)
 
−
*Perhaps use cross-products of various ontologies to get the same effect?
 
−
*May want to consider using .OWL format as opposed to .OBO
 
−
*Need a sustainable, long-term approach to maintaining the ontologies
 
−
*AMIGO 2 only consumes .OWL format, not .OBO
 
−
*Should we consider switching to Protege, as a local ontology browser/editor (as opposed to OBO-Edit)?

=== ACKnowledge Author Request - WBPaper00066091 ===
 +
* I am more than willing to assist; however, the task exceeds the capabilities of the normal flagging process.
  
−
Intermine
+
* 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.
−
*Target for first release, minimal functionality for sequence-based queries
 
−
*JD working on importing sequence-based data
 
−
*How much can we get into Intermine by the first freeze/release (in April)?
 
−
*How should we prioritize?
 
−
*Can we build a "worm-version" of FlyMine (existing classes, e.g.)?
 
−
**Probably not a good approach for first release in April, but maybe useful for long-term
 
−
*Production server (unstable) vs live/testing server (more stable)
 
−
*Major testing will start in April
 
  
 +
* 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.
  
−
Staging tests
+
* Should WormBase decide to use my variant data set, I am more than willing to offer my assistance.
−
*WS236 Staging site now available
 
−
*Everyone should test rigorously
 
  
 +
=== 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
  
−
[http://www.celegans.org/2013/|2013 International Worm Meeting]

Dead genes
+
=== UniProt ===
−
*Going to add "Historical_gene" tag to relevant class models (e.g. ?Interaction, ?Expr_pattern, ?Transgene, etc.)
+
* Jae found some genes without uniProt IDs, but the genes are there on uniProt but without WBGene IDs.
−
*Will modify OA dumping scripts with Juancarlos to automate recognition of dead genes and replace them (if merged)
+
* Wen reached to Stavros and Chris to investigate WormBase and AGR angles.
−
*Dumper will add remark about existence of dead gene in original object
+
* Stavros escalates the issue on Hinxton Standup.
−
*Will consider adding original gene reference through #Evidence hash under "Published_as" tag, as Other_name (gene synonym), as possibly as a separate free-text tag in the models that captures the verbatim reference to the original gene
+
* Mark checks Build scripts and WS291 results. After that, he contacted UniProt and he's working with them to figure this out.
−
*Will not try to re-annotate old objects WRT the gene synonyms/verbatim references, but can consider doing this going forward only
 
  
 +
==January 18, 2024==
