Ixodes Community Annotation - a chance to get involved. » |
| Posted by Daniel Lawson on July 11th, 2008
VectorBase encourages community scientists to contribute to the Ixodes annotation effort through submission of their own gene models. Community-generated gene models will be displayed as a separate manual annotation track in the Ixodes Genome Browser. Community annotations will also be considered for incorporation into the final Ixodes gene set, which is targeted for release at Vectorbase and GenBank in a few months.
Community scientists wishing to submit manual annotations may do so through the VectorBase Community Annotation Pipeline. An account is required to submit gene models. To sign-up for an account, click the “User” tab in the top-right corner of the VectorBase homepage. To submit a gene model, follow these instructions. For further information regarding submission of community annotations, please contact the Ixodes VectorBase Community Representative, Jason Meyer, at meyerjm@purdue.edu

Ixodes scapularis genome sequence available » |
| Posted by Daniel Lawson on March 14th, 2008
The Ixodes scapularis Wikel strain genome sequence assembly is available from VectorBase. The assembly consists of 570,640 contigs arranged into 369,495 scaffolds yielding a combined assembly length of 1.4 Gb. Both contigs and scaffolds can be downloaded and the scaffolds are available for Blast searching.
You can receive updates and get involved through the Ixodes mailing list.
