Hi Orly, We do not have any plans to remove the canFam1 browser any time in the near future. Also, we cannot begin creating a canFam3 genome browser until after the reference sequence is officially deposited in GenBank. So, rest assured that none of the current data on the site will go missing.
We see that build 131 SNPs are available at dbSNP for canFam2. The feasibility of adding a SNP track to canFam2 was discussed, and we would definitely like to do it. However, we currently have quite a long project list, and a lot of things will take precedence. So, I can't give you time frame yet. Thank you for letting us know that this track would be useful to the Canine genomics and genetics community. -- Brooke Rhead UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group On 02/02/11 12:48, Orly Goldstein wrote: > Dear UCSC genomic team, > My name is Orly Goldstein and I work at Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, with Dr. Greg Acland, in the field of Canine genomics and genetics. > It came to my attention that the CanFam 3.0 is about to be publically > available, and CanFam1.0 will be removed. > I was wondering if the SNPs database that is available in CanFam1.0 will be incorporated in this version of CanFam3.0? > The SNP data is very important and it would have severe consequences if this information won’t be available in the UCSC website. > It would be very helpful to have it incorporated in the CanFam3.0 version. Right now we are going back and forth from CanFam1.0 and 2.0, which is not convenient to say the least. > > Thanks, > > Sincerely, > > Orly Goldstein > James A Baker Institute, > Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, 14853. > > 607-256-5691. > _______________________________________________ > Genome maillist - [email protected] > https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
