Review Action Items

Tuesday August 7, 2007, 10 AM CDT (8 AM PDT, 4 PM BST)

  1. Judy, Petra, Karen, DongHui and Kimberley summarize how the different Tools for identifying orthologs work, algorithm explanations, order of preference and pitfalls in identifying orthologs
  2. RG software group and some curators will have a phone conference to discuss the new tool
  3. Annotation consistency/ quality control: Rex and Pascale will send all the curators on the RG mailing list a list of genes to verify; we'll see how it goes and discuss next time
  4. Continue discussion on Outreach: publicizing the project and developing a web presence (lead by Susan and Rex)
  5. Continue discussion on Metrics: breath and depth of annotations (Rex, Judy, Ruth)

Curation QC

  • example: ATPAF2
  • The idea is each curator (or a small group of curators) could generate a page like this when curating a gene; other groups could consult the page when curating the ortholog from their database

Curation Targets

  • We have now shared a spreadsheet where curators can make suggestions for targets

[[1]]

  • RGD (Mary Shimoyama) sent two lists: one of neurological and cardiovascular diseases (692 genes); the other with genes associated with obesity (1222 genes).

Reference genome curation tool

  • Sohel has made a new version of the interface

  • Keep sending comments; however since Sohel leaves July 31, development will be delayed

Next meeting

Tuesday Sept 10, 1 PM CDT (11 AM PDT, 7 PM BST)
