-===================================================================================-
New Data:
---------
1) Vancouver (VRM) Fosmid library is now mapped to the current elegans assembly and
will be available to view in the genome browser.
2) 1215 new RNAi objects.
3) >500 new variations.
New Fixes:
----------
1) Mitochondrial gene predictions will now display correctly within wormbase
and the genome browser.
gff is available for all CDSs/Coding_Transcripts/WBgene_spans.
2) The clone C24G6 had incorrect wublastx data in the previous release of WormBase
(WS153) this has now been resolved.
Known Problems:
--------------
Other Changes:
--------------
Proposed Changes / Forthcoming Data:
------------------------------------
1) Gene -> VRM Fosmid library connections will be generated to speed up
fosmid identification.
Model Changes:
------------------------------------
1) Removed Interpolated_map_position from ?CDS, ?Transcript and ?Pseudogene.
2) Changed ?Variation Interpolated_map_position to be same structure and ?Gene ie
Interpolated_map_position UNIQUE ?Map UNIQUE Float
-===================================================================================-
Quick installation guide for UNIX/Linux systems
-----------------------------------------------
1. Create a new directory to contain your copy of WormBase,
e.g. /users/yourname/wormbase
2. Unpack and untar all of the database.*.tar.gz files into
this directory. You will need approximately 2-3 Gb of disk space.
3. Obtain and install a suitable acedb binary for your system
(available from www.acedb.org).
4. Use the acedb 'xace' program to open your database, e.g.
type 'xace /users/yourname/wormbase' at the command prompt.
5. See the acedb website for more information about acedb and
using xace.
