Are you interested in more functional information about protein-coding genes? We’ve expanded NCBI RefSeq’s Eukaryote Genome Annotation Pipeline (EGAP) to include Gene Ontology (GO) terms computed for most protein-coding genes. We are using the latest version of InterProScan, which now includes analysis based on PANTHER reference trees, on all NCBI RefSeq eukaryotic genomes. That means having comprehensive GO data with inferred biological process, molecular function, and cellular component terms matched with high-quality RefSeq annotations across hundreds of taxa to help drive your research. The data is available on individual records in NCBI’s Gene resource, NCBI Gene FTP, or in community standard .gaf formatted files with each RefSeq genome release on our FTP site.Continue reading “Gene Ontology (GO) Terms for NCBI RefSeq Eukaryotic Genomes”→
Homo sapiens (human) T2T-CHM13v2.0 now includes many more alternative splice variants
Homo sapiens (human) GRCh38.p14 includes all transcripts from MANE v1.2, and includes over 78,000 new RefSeq Functional Element (RefSeqFE) features added since our last annotation in 2022
Mus musculus (house mouse) GRCm39 integrates curation for over 3,000 genes and 14,000 transcripts since September 2020
Rattus norvegicus (Norway rat) mRatBN7.2, including curation of over 5000 genes since our last annotation in 2021
Unlock the full potential of eukaryotic research organisms and their genomic data with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Comparative Genomics Resource (CGR). CGR facilitates reliable comparative genomics analyses through community collaboration as well as an NCBI toolkit of interconnected, interoperable data and tools.
Comparative genomics is a field of study that uses the genomes of many different organisms to help us understand basic biological processes and human disease. NCBI is developing CGR to help researchers take full advantage of the rapidly growing number of eukaryotic organisms that, due to recent technological advances, now have sequenced genomes and associated data that can be used in these types of studies. Its NCBI toolkit offers new and modern resources for such analyses, and its emphasis on community collaboration brings new opportunities to share and connect data.

In February and March, the NCBI Eukaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline released forty-two new annotations in RefSeq for the organisms listed below. Additionally, interim builds for over sixty species were run during that time period to fix some issues with gene symbol assignment.
RefSeq release 218 is now available online and from the FTP site. You can access RefSeq data through NCBI Datasets.
