Getting ready to send in new MaizeGDB associations files and have a few questions about format since I last did this.<BR>
<BR>
Looking at the cvs, it seem we are taking in associations to:<BR>
genes<BR>
QTL<BR>
stocks or germplasm (Mutant)<BR>
QUESTION: Others? <BR>
<BR>
It seems on our new, and rather swank interface, that there is a slot for ‘sequence’ and when null, it states:<BR>
No peptide sequence available.<BR>
For example, look up pericarp,<BR>
then the Arabidopsis gene ‘CYP707A1’<BR>
But, when I look at the record in question at TAIR, it seems there must be some peptide sequence. <BR>
QUESTOIN: So, what is this field all about? OR rather, what must be done to populate it?<BR>
<BR>
In the same record, there is a column indicating that it has a GO association?<BR>
QUESTION: how does that get into the PO browser? <BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Is there anything else I should be doing? <BR>
