Hi,

This is regarding MAGE-ML export that can be accepted by ArrayExpress (again)! I did see Kjell's email a couple of weeks back where he mentioned that stable code will be available in the CVS later this month.

I assume it be necessary to upgrade to a new version of 1.2.x to get these MAGE-ML corrections? or would something like a patch be provided which we can apply to an existing 1.2.x installation?


you will have to upgrade your installation

Also, has anyone used the Tab2MAGE utility from ArrayExpress to convert tab delimited data exported from BASE into MAGEML? Any inputs on this will be greatly appreciated.


yes. I generate TAB2MAGE and ADF file from BASE but the result of this really depends on how you configured your installation. The ADF file is not a problem but the TAB2MAGE one can be.
1. do your sample annotations match with MIAME required annotations?
2. And if so, do you use MO terms whenever posssible for sample annotations and other places like exp design , ....? 3. BioSource concept is one of the trickiest issue to automate : this really depends on how you use the SampleOrign in BASE 4. Other problems is that concepts are missing in BASE like Factor Value and few annotation fields on the level of extract and labeledextract (like ExtractMaterial, ...)

It is possible to generate a "draft" TAB2MAGE from BASE that you'll have to manually adapt (or do little bit of coding if you are a programmer). Depending on how "compliant" is your BASE and how big is your experiment, you might want to assemble the TAB2MAGE by hand or spend a couple of day to write code fitting with your BASE installation.

Hopefully the next BASE release will also ease TAB2MAGE export a lot.

Hope this helps

Charles

Thanks,
Rupali
