In February and March, the NCBI Eukaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline released forty-six new annotations in RefSeq!
We look forward to seeing you in person at The Allied Genetics Conference (TAGC), March 6-10, 2024, in the Washington D.C. metro area. NCBI staff will participate in a variety of activities and events, including hosting a hands-on workshop: Exploring and downloading NCBI data with NCBI Datasets. We’re also excited to share our recent efforts on the NIH Comparative Genomics Resource (CGR) in a talk during Sunday’s Technology, Tools, and Resources session.
As part of our ongoing effort to enhance your experience, we are updating the NCBI Datasets application programming interfaces (APIs). Beginning in June 2024, the v2alpha APIs will be promoted to the stable v2 version. At this time, the v1 API, the command-line interface (CLI) version 13 and older versions, and the Python library v1 will be deprecated and thus no longer supported for bug fixes or updates. Effective December 31, 2024, these will no longer be available for use.
Our updated APIs and CLI tools include new features and functionality based on your feedback. We’re committed to making this transition as smooth as possible and encourage you to review our FAQs for more details. If you use NCBI Datasets web pages and command-line tools v14+, no action is required. Continue reading “Significant Updates Coming to the NCBI Datasets APIs and Command-Line Tools”
During October to January, the NCBI Eukaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline released seventy new annotations in RefSeq!
As previously announced, HomoloGene now automatically redirects to the NCBI Datasets Gene page giving you easy access to up-to-date sequence and homology data. The NCBI Datasets Gene Table provides a link to NCBI Orthologs with expanded gene and protein information and links to tools. NCBI Orthologs includes more genes and sequences for a growing range of taxa. See an example below. Legacy HomoloGene data remains available on the FTP site.
