Happy birthday Ensembl!! 🎂

25 years of serving data! 🥳

A large blue birthday cake. It says happy birthday Ensembl on it.

Can I bypass #biomart when asking for #ensembl genomic data? I use many Biomart calls to get a bunch of data but it's slow, and Biomart has been offline for a while now, so it might be time to update my approach.

There is my email in my ${HOME}: /home/me@univ-nantes.fr/ . When using #ensembl VEP, the '@' is not escaped in VEP/Perl/BioPerl

Does any of you people of Mastodon have a clue why the rat genes are missing from Ensemble Biomart? Rat genome is part of the latest release. Asked the help desk but no response yet.

We have frozen the Ensembl Rapid site. Genomes which would have previously been released on Rapid will now only be released on our new site - beta.ensembl.org/

Rapid will remain accessible for the foreseeable future, but the data and species will no longer be updated.

This is a really exciting milestone for the beta project!

I found this morning that the @wikidata page of #Ensembl did not link many of their articles so added a bunch of 'main subject' links. Now its @wdscholia pages is a nice starting point to read up on the history, evolution, and content of this gene database: scholia.toolforge.org/topic/Q1

Downloading data from Ensembl: 140 kB/s using rsync/wget versus 20 MB/s using Globus.

Tricky decision.

(eg.: ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Locat )

If the genome is not in ensembl, then the assembly is probably not good enough to do any synteny analysis anyway, IMHO

Savez-vous si les données de plant.ensembl.org sont accessibles par une API #rest ? (quelle URL ?)
La doc ne mentionne que la version "animale".

We hope that the comparative genomics analyses made available through this study will provide a route towards the application of genomics-informed conservation programmes across the great diversity of invertebrate species. A big thank to all the amazing people from the Darwin Tree of Life Project that made this reserch possible! #biodiversity #conservation #comparativegenomics #PacBio #DarwinTreeofLife #Ensembl #emblebi #sangerinstitute #wellcometrust

BioMart- of course we all know you can get #GeneOntology annotations with this great tool, but here's a fantastic #tweetorial about converting gene IDs!

RT @ensembl
1/ Do you have a list of @ensembl IDs that you want to convert to IDs from other databases?

Here's how you can retrieve the @NCBI gene IDs from a list of #Ensembl IDs. A thread...🧵

I did not realize that #Ensembl 's #mysql is built with MyISAM engines as the default.
Wondering if #Aria or #ColumnStore engines are a better choice when building with #MariaDB

The amount of data is just nuts. Just the dumps of the human and a few mouse genomes from are ~400GB compressed (have no idea what they uncompress to). Will definitely be experimenting with both ColumnStore (solid API) and (no nice api , but perhaps one can use pure to query stuff).
