Agenda

Reference Genome meeting update

Review Action Items

  1. ACTION ITEM: Judy, Petra, Karen, DongHui and Kimberley will write a white paper with an overview of how the different tools work, algorithm explanations, order of preference and pitfalls in identifying orthologs
  2. ACTION ITEM: Rex, Pascale, Emily will summarize the strategy used to identifying target genes and suggest possible improvements
  3. ACTION ITEM: Rex, Karen, Emily, Susan will write a list of information needed from curators to measure annotation progress
  4. ACTION ITEM: Rex, Judy, Ruth will summarize ideas on to how to capture breath and depth of annotations
  5. ACTION ITEM: Mary, Sohel, Chris will send a summary of what is being done by the software group
  6. ACTION ITEM: Pascale, Donghui will provide a framework for discussing consistency of annotations across genomes
  7. ACTION ITEM: Susan and Rex will present suggestions for publicizing the project and developing a web presence

Annotation Statistics

  • How many of the human genes have orthologs identified ?
  • How many of these have papers associated (are published genes) ?
  • How many papers associated in total ?
  • How many papers have been considered for GO curation ?
  • How many papers provided GO terms ?
  • How many genes which have papers associated are considered complete/comprehensive ?

Issues with target genes

  • pombe (Val): takes a long time to triage papers
  • GOA, pombe: too many genes per month
  • not enough coordination between annotation efforts
  • pombe/dictyBase: We would like to know when other databases have completed annotation

- Judy suggestion: Change from 'complete' to 'comprehensive' - Pascale: did we not have a wiki for doing that?
