* Alliance curation status form development needs use cases. ref https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls#February_15.2C_2024
  
  
==Nov 5th, 2020==
 
  
===WS279 GAF 2.0 and disease files===
+
==February 15, 2024==
*Valerio and Ranjana still working with the GAF 2.0 files to generate gene descriptions
 
*Valerio and Ranjana will probably have a meeting with Magdalena to sort out the FTP file issues for gene descriptions
 
*Will let Raymond know if the disease GAFs are okay after they test these for gene descriptions
 
*Raymond needs the GAFs for WoBR
 
  
===Experimenting with addeding new citace data to the current WS release ===
+
=== Literature Migration to the Alliance ABC ===
*Wen will take the newest expression, physical interaction, and paper class from postgres, add them to WS279 to create a "WS279.1" version of ACeDB database. Then compare WS279.1 to WS279 by comparing the SimpleMine results generated from these two versions of ACeDB. The goal is to explore the possibility of notifying users some of the new curation since the data freeze for the WS build.
+
==== Use Cases for Searches and Validation in the ABC (or, what are your common actions in the curation status form)? ====
 +
===== Find papers with a high confidence NN classification for a given topic that have also been flagged positive by an author in a community curation pipeline and that haven’t been curated yet for that topic =====
 +
*Facet for topic
 +
*Facet for automatic assertion
 +
**neural network method
 +
*Facet for confidence level
 +
**High
 +
*Facet for manual assertion
 +
**author assertion
 +
***ACKnowledge method
 +
**professional biocurator assertion
 +
***curation tools method - NULL
  
===MicroPub user webinar on Nov 9th===
+
===== Manually validate paper - topic flags without curating =====
*Ranjana and Kimberly have conflicts--Alliance call and GO call. Anyway microPub team is running the show and they have other WormBasers to help as well.
+
*Facet for topic
 +
*Facet for manual assertion
 +
**professional biocurator assertion
 +
***ABC - no data
  
===WS280 deadlines===
+
===== View all topic and entity flags for a given paper and validate, if needed =====
*Caltech files due for citace: Dec 15th, 2020
+
* Search ABC with paper identifier
 +
* Migrate to Topic and Entity Editor
 +
* View all associated data
 +
* 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?
  
==Nov 12th, 2020==
+
==February 8, 2024==
=== Cynthia Kenyon tool ===
+
* TAGC
* developed a new tool for the worm, complete with tutorials, for analyzing gene expression data using Gene Module analysis.
+
** Prominent announcement on the Alliance home page?
* tool at http://genemodules.org
 
* add link outs from the gene expression widget or add in general WB tools?
 
* if we want to incorporate we need to have it updated.
 
* are they maintaining it?
 
* there's no RNAseq, can be outdated
 
* maybe good to add a blog post
 
  
=== Graphical curation tool update===
+
* Fixed login on dockerized system (dev). Can everybody test their forms?
* We will show a live demo on the current state of the graphical curation tool
 
  
=== Curating to human genes in ACEDB ===
+
==February 1, 2024==
* Karen requested option to curate constructs with human genes
+
* Paul will ask Natalia to take care of pending reimbursements
* Would we need to change our human genes in ACEDB? For example, migrate from Ensembl IDs to HGNC IDs as primary keys?
+
* Dockerized system slow pages (OA and FPKMMine). Will monitor these pages in the future. Will look for timeouts in the nginx logs.
* Will discuss on next site-wide call
 
  
=== GAF (and GAF-like) file headers ===
+
==January 25, 2024==
* GO GAF files (on FTP, WS279) for WormBase now in 2.2 format with header like
 
!gaf-version: 2.2
 
!generated-by: WormBase
 
!date-generated: 2020-10-30
 
! WB annotations 00015014
 
* For files that can migrate to 2.2 format (e.g. always require column 4 qualifier) we could adopt a similar header
 
* For other files (that cannot always have a qualifier in column 4), we could stick to 2.0 format with a header like:
 
!gaf-version: 2.0
 
!generated-by: WormBase
 
!date-generated: 2020-10-30
 
* Current need is to include information about format specification, possibly in addition to other extra header content.
 
* New proposed headers:
 
!project-URL: https://wormbase.org
 
!specification-URL: https://github.com/geneontology/geneontology.github.io/blob/issue-go-annotation-2917-gaf-2_2-doc/_docs/go-annotation-file-gaf-format-22.md
 
OR
 
!specification-URL: https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase_gene_association_file
 
!project-release: WS279
 
* Could repurpose the Wiki page: https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase_gene_association_file from internal docs only to include user guide info, including how our GAF-like files deviate in format from standard GAF
 
  
 +
=== Curator Info on Curation Forms ===
 +
* Saving curator info using cookies in dockerized forms. Can we deploy to prod?
  
== Nov 19, 2020 ==
+
=== ACKnowledge Author Request - WBPaper00066091 ===
 +
* I am more than willing to assist; however, the task exceeds the capabilities of the normal flagging process.
  
=== Webinars ===
+
* 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.
* JBrowse webinar tomorrow (Friday)
 
** Ranjana will host; Wen will provide tech support; Daniela will collect user questions from chat in Google Doc; Chris will write staff answers to questions in Google Doc
 
* Background slides put together for when audience is waiting
 
* Wen will start the meeting at 9:30am Pacific; can run a test poll
 
* Questions will be collected in Google Doc; answers can be written into the Google Doc in real time; we can use the Google Doc as a reference to assemble FAQs later
 
  
=== Alaska ===
+
* 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.
* Is Eduardo still working on it?
 
* He replied to a user asking about Alaska
 
* Is it still running? Maintained?
 
* Can we tell what usage it gets?
 
* Is it useful for the Alliance? Maybe can write it into grant?
 
* Is it commercially viable? Maybe someone can write an SBIR grant proposal?
 
  
=== Server space ===
+
* Should WormBase decide to use my variant data set, I am more than willing to offer my assistance.
* No new space in Chen building
+
 
* Many servers will stay in a server room where they are currently
+
=== Update on NN Classification via the Alliance ===
* Other servers we will need to see if they can be moved to Chen
+
* 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.
 +
 
 +
=== Travel Reimbursements ===
 +
