* Now live on WormBase, WS274
 
−
* [https://github.com/WormBase/website/issues/7347 GitHub ticket]
 
−
* Applies to the following classes: genes, strains, variations, transgenes, constructs, anatomy terms, clones, life stages, rearrangements, molecules, processes

* Construct example: https://wormbase.org/species/all/construct/WBCnstr00023113#03--10
 
−
** Known issue: not working now; need to only search on public name when available, not on summary; Sibyl will fix

** Known challenge: "Psub1" will essentially never match the intended target and "P1" may find the embryonic cell or the postembryonic cell

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?

Citace upload

  • Curators upload files to Spica for citace upload on Tuesday (July 6)

Chen B1 kitchen Usage Considerations

  • Clean up after oneself.
  • Mark food storage with name and date.
  • Mark storage drawers
  • Consumables

Alliance work

  • Orange team presenting initial plans at Alliance PI meeting tomorrow
  • What working groups are still meeting? What are their responsibilities?
    • 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
