Routine Maintenance for HumanMine – Wednesday 8 Jan 2020

Update, 11 AM GMT January 8: The migration has been completed successfully!

Original post:

On Wednesday the 8th of January, we’ll be upgrading the server HumanMine lives on, as well as updating it with a fresh new data build – all the same data sources as before, but more recent versions where they are available.

We anticipate downtime for around two hours, from 10:00 GMT to 12:00 noon GMT, although it is possible the downtime will be longer or shorter than this.

The new dataset versions will be available on the HumanMine dataset page after the upgrade is complete.

HumanMine 5.0 released!

HumanMine has been updated to the latest version of NCBI Entrez Gene. All other data sets have also been updated to the newest versions and we have fixed a few bugs. See the data sources page for a full list of data and their versions. All data can be accessed through our comprehensive library of template searches or by building your own queries using the query builder.

 

New Data Source: GTEx

We added a new expression data set, GTEx. Here’s an example search:

Gene –> Tissue Expression

Tissue –> Gene expression

Data model changes!

Our data model has changed slightly to make querying easier between mines.

• Protein molecular weight is a float instead of an integer
• We’ve added URLs for GO term evidence codes
• Sequence Ontology (the basis for the InterMine data model) is updated, so lots of new data types added.

See our previous blog post for complete details of updates.

 

We have docs and videos, and for a full list of data sources available in HumanMine see the data sources list.

However, please do not hesitate to contact us should you require any further assistance. For all types of help and feedback email info@intermine.org.

New Data Source: ClinVar

We added a new data source linking genes with their alleles and associated diseases. Here’s an example query:

Human Data Sources Switch

We switched Entrez and Ensembl gene identifiers around. Please see our blog for details. If you have questions or problems, please contact us.

Complex Interaction Viewer

We’ve added a nice viewer for complexes. Source: http://interactionviewer.org

New Blog!

We’ve decided to streamline our blogging experience a little bit. Rather than maintaining several separate but mostly similar blogs for HumanMine, FlyMine, and InterMine, this blog will act as a combined stream.

Don’t worry – this doesn’t mean you’ll be forced to view irrelevant updates if you’re only interested in one of the sub categories. WordPress is great about filtering via tag or category. Here are a few quick links:
