    1. Support for the new FWR4 annotation feature in the AIRR format, both in standard format and in the AIRR alignment format.

    2. The previous “-penalty” parameter was renamed as -V_penalty to be consistent with other IgBLAST penalty options.

    3. Restored constant internal BLAST search parameters for domain annotation (i.e., FWR/CDR) such that this process is not influenced by user parameters.

    4. Corrected FWR/CDR annotations for certain mouse VK and rat VH germline genes. 

IgBLAST 1.15.0 is available for download from the BLAST FTP area. See the the new manual on GitHub for information about setting up and running IgBLAST.

Effective July 10, 2023, NCBI’s Assembly and Genome record pages now redirect to new NCBI Datasets pages. As previously announced, these updates are part of our ongoing effort to modernize and improve your user experience. NCBI Datasets is a new resource that makes it easier to find and download genome data.   

The following pages have been updated:

• The NCBI Assembly record pages now redirect to the new NCBI Datasets Genome record pages that describe assembled genomes and provide links to related NCBI tools such as Genome Data Viewer and BLAST.  
• The NCBI Genome record pages now redirect to the NCBI Datasets Taxonomy record pages that provide a taxonomy-focused portal to genes, genomes, and additional NCBI resources.   

During this transition, you will have the option to return to the legacy Genome and Assembly record pages. We will remove the legacy pages in early 2024.  

The GO provides core biological knowledge representation for modern biologists, whether computationally or experimentally based. GO resources include biomedical ontologies that cover molecular domains of all life forms as well as extensive compilations of gene product annotations to these ontologies that provide largely species-neutral, comprehensive statements about what gene products do. Although extensively used in data analysis workflows, and widely incorporated into numerous data analysis platforms and applications, the general user of GO resources often misses fundamental distinctions about GO structures, GO annotations, and what can and can not be extrapolated from GO resources. Here are ten quick tips for using the Gene Ontology.

Following are the most commonly used old and new GO term enrichment determination tools. These tools are recommended to people working in a wet-lab.

CLASSIFI (Department of Pathology, UT Southwestern Medical Center)

CLASSIFI (Cluster Assignment for Biological Inference) is a data-mining tool that can be used to identify significant co-clustering of genes with similar functional properties (e.g. cellular response to DNA damage). Briefly, CLASSIFI uses the Gene OntologyTM (GO) gene annotation scheme to define the functional properties of all genes/probes in a microarray data set, and then applies a cumulative hypergeometric distribution analysis to determine if any statistically significant gene ontology co-clustering has occurred.

EasyGO (China Agricultural University)

EasyGO is designed to automate enrichment job for experimental biologists to identify enriched Gene Ontology (GO) terms in a list of microarray probe sets or gene identifiers (with expression information for PAGE analysis). Also EasyGO is also a GO annotation database, especially focus on agronomical species, supporting 30 species. It is user friendly, with advanced result browsing format and in-time update.

g:GOSt (Institute of Computer Science, University of Tartu)

g:GOSt retrieves most significant Gene Ontology (GO) terms, KEGG and REACTOME pathways, and TRANSFAC motifs to a user-specified group of genes, proteins or microarray probes. g:GOSt also allows analysis of ranked or ordered lists of genes, visual browsing of GO graph structure, interactive visualisation of retrieved results, and many other features. Multiple testing corrections are applied to extract only statistically important results.

GOEAST (Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences)

GOEAST is web based software toolkit providing easy to use, visualizable, comprehensive and unbiased Gene Ontology (GO) analysis for high-throughput experimental results, especially for results from microarray hybridization experiments. The main function of GOEAST is to identify significantly enriched GO terms among give lists of genes using accurate statistical methods.

GOstat (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research)

Find statistically overrepresented GO terms within a group of genes

http://gostat.wehi.edu.au/

GOrilla (Technion - Laboratory of Computational Biology , Israel Institute of Technology)

GOrilla is a tool for identifying and visualizing enriched GO terms in ranked lists of genes.
It uses two approaches, first by searching for enriched GO terms that appear densely at the top of a ranked list of genes  or by searching for enriched GO terms in a target list of genes compared to a background list of genes.

GOrilla makes nice pictures !!!!

Gene Ontology for Functional Analysis (GOFFA)

GOFFA is a tool developed for ArrayTrack™ that takes a list of genes and identifies terms in Gene Ontology (GO) disclaimer icon associated with those genes.

It provides several tools to view/access the GO term hierarchy, full listing of GO terms annotated with the genes associated with a given term with statically useful report.

It was first developed to transfer annotations between different genome assembly versions. However, it can also transfer annotations between strains and even different species, like Plasmodium chabaudi onto P. berghei, between different Leishmania species or Salmonella enterica onto other Salmonella serotypes. RATT is able to transfer any entries present on a reference sequence, such as the systematic id or an annotator's notes; such information would be lost in a de novo annotation.

HiCdat is easy-to-use and provides solutions starting from aligned reads up to in-depth analyses. Importantly, HiCdat is focussed on the analysis of larger structural features of chromosomes, their correlation to genomic and epigenomic features, and on comparative studies. It uses simple input and output formats and can therefore easily be integrated into existing workflows or combined with alternative tools.
