* Ranjana and Juancarlos working on the concise description form
 
  
=== Changing GAF format ===
+
[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2022|2022 Meetings]]
* What implications does this have for the WormBase Ontology Browser?
 
* What testing of generation of the GAF could be done (and sent to Raymond)?

 +
** 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.
 +
* Textpresso: good to have a presentation for other MODs to show Textpresso capabilities? Yes. Maybe during sprint review

=== Physical Interaction Curation ===
+
=== TAGC debrief ===
* We have begun physical interaction in Interaction OA
 
* We are establishing a pipeline to share all physical and genetic interactions with BioGRID
 
* It would be good to clarify which curators can/will curate physical interactions
 
* Would be good if phenotype curators could curate genetic AND physical interactions in the same paper
 
* Something that John DeModena could do?
 
* Xiaodong capturing protein-DNA interactions
 
* We still need to decide what level of detail we would like to capture
 
* We could try to capture specific protein sequences used in experiments
 
* We don't have individual protein/peptide sequence objects, maybe we want them? IDs for domain instances?
 
* We have an SVM pipeline "geneprodgo"
 
* A lot of GO protein interaction data to extract; might use ?Analysis objects to track attribution of curation
 
  
=== BioGRID interaction sharing ===
+
==February 22, 2024==
* Provenance and attribution issues
 
* ?Analysis object can be created for BioGRID attribution
 
* WormBase has imported all worm (C. elegans) physical (protein-protein) interactions from BioGRID
 
* Working on importing BioGRID genetic interactions, or at least resolving overlap
 
* WormBase will send physical and genetic interaction data to BioGRID at every upload
 
* Rose et al are considering regulatory interaction data, currently discussing

* 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%)
* A user recently requested addition of RNAi data for a handful of papers
 
* I (Chris) directed them to our trial [https://docs.google.com/a/wormbase.org/spreadsheets/d/1lLxMZ016g81EpR11eKILm3H17DbcrsUuwq5lqmIIKWk/edit#gid=0 RNAi data submission table]
 
* Would be good to embed community annotation forms into WormBase website so that users could log in and add data without having to re-enter personal information
 
* Can we map user login info to WBPerson ID? Is that already the case? Would be good.
 
  
=== Clone Mapper Software ===
+
* Is this similar to the FlyBase system? Recording of presentation  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1S4kZidL7gvBH6SjF4IQujyReVVRf2cOK
* We will adopt Clone Mapper for RNAi clone mapping
 
* Chris and Kevin working with Jonathan Ewbank

=== BioGRID data sharing pipeline ===
+
=== ACKnowledge Author Request - WBPaper00066091 ===
* Juancarlos developed a BioGRID TAB2 dump file from the Interaction OA
+
* I am more than willing to assist; however, the task exceeds the capabilities of the normal flagging process.
* Eventually will send all worm genetic and physical interactions to BioGRID
 
* Will omit genetic no_interactions
 
* Will omit interactions with no PubMed ID: reviews or person evidence only
 
* Will omit interactions with uncloned genes (no Entrez ID)
 
* As of Feb 25, 2015, we have ~8220 total novel* genetic interactions to submit to BioGRID (*novel to BioGRID)
 
  
=== Species for genes in Postgres ===
+
* 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.
* We will talk to Michael Paulini about getting species info for genes
+
 
* Need to get from GeneACE or some place else
+
* 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.
* Added after meeting - yes, all Species are in Geneace. (Mary Ann)
+
 
 +
* Should WormBase decide to use my variant data set, I am more than willing to offer my assistance.
 +
 
 +
=== 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
 +
 
 +
* We decided to process all papers (even non-elegans species) and have filters on species after processing.
 +
* NNC html pages will show NNC values together with species.
 +
* Show all C. elegans papers first and other species in a separate bin.
 +
 
 +

 +
* Still waiting on October travel reimbursement (Kimberly)
 +
* Still waiting on September and October travel reimbursements (Wen)

 +
=== UniProt ===
 +
* Jae found some genes without uniProt IDs, but the genes are there on uniProt but without WBGene IDs.
 +
* Wen reached to Stavros and Chris to investigate WormBase and AGR angles.
 +
* Stavros escalates the issue on Hinxton Standup.
 +
* Mark checks Build scripts and WS291 results. After that, he contacted UniProt and he's working with them to figure this out.
