Presentation Transcript

  1. Maize Genome Project • Shiran Pasternak • January 13, 2006 • Gramene SAB Meeting • San Diego, CA

  2. Maize Genome Project • 3 year sequencing effort • Funded November, 2005 • Objectives • Sequence the maize genespace • Genic and regulatory regions • Finish 721 contigs: 1 in 100,000 error rate • Anchor to physical and genetic maps

  3. Project Participants • Arizona Genome Institute (AGI) • Mapping • Washington University at St. Louis (WU) • Sequencing • Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) • Analysis and Annotation

  4. Institutional Layout

  5. CSHL Functions • Annotation • Visualization

  6. Annotation • Internal • Public

  7. Internal Annotation • Prefinishing: Automated • Enrich BAC assemblies with AutoFinish ‘Do Not Finish’ repeat tags • Finishing: Manual • Tag mRNA and ESTs to target problematic regions

  8. Public Annotation • Iteratively redefine gene boundaries • Provide new knowledge on maize genome • Communicate status of the project

  9. Annotation Pipeline • Gramene-Ensembl • Whole genome alignment to rice • ab initio gene prediction with Fgenesh • Evidence-based gene prediction • Repeat analysis • Full annotation on nearly finished BACs

  10. Visualization • Gramene and Ensembl Browser • Existing: Contigs, Genes, Synteny • CMap Views • Whole genome alignment • Sequencing status of BACs & Contigs • Other track suggestions?

  11. ContigView

  12. Synteny View * against Rice

  13. GeneView

  14. New Views

  15. Infrastructure • Hardware • 2 servers, forthcoming node cluster • Dedicated architecture • Genome browser • Database schemata • Annotation pipeline

  16. Data Releases • Ongoing annotation updates (weekly) • Repeats • Gene models • Infrequent genome builds (yearly?) • Orthologs • Syntenic Loci

  17. Impact on Gramene • Cost: $0 • Maize browser will link to Gramene content • Evolving requirements

  18.
