Initial Meeting- Aug 2011

Notes about the dataset:

From email: Mary Schaeffer: These are all new annotations – and there are a lot, as each gene-model has some expression. I am lumping the putative splice variants to one model. For our 60 tissues for this set, the number of PO terms is some 52 distinct ones. I am thinking about sending a small file first, to make sure all is fine and dandy, and then upload the larger file. Would that work for you? Or do you want to look at the beast in its full glory?

Note in a few cases, there is a classical gene name for the gene model. I assume these could be supplied as synonyms? Or, would you prefer they be supplied as a separate row.

Note, the instructions on the wiki for field 13. TAXON deal with Field 12 and should be altered.

Be in touch as I work out the svn access – I found my old account information, but will likely be in contact with Justin to get hooked up.

Questions

from MS by email:

• In a few cases, there is a classical gene name for the gene model. I assume these could be supplied as synonyms? Or, would you prefer they be supplied as a separate row?

• Do you still wish to have separate files for anatomy and growth terms?

I think that might be a good idea as well to make the huge file easier to deal with.
