gene2product
Curated list of gene names and product descriptions that pass NCBI genome submission rules. Used by funannotate during eukaryotic genome annotation.
I hope this is a "community" project where we can keep a list of gene names and their product definitions that pass NCBI requirements. The funannotate annotate
script will generate a list of gene names/product deflines that pass tbl2asn but are not in the database, to contribute you can do a PR of this repository.
- Fork this repository
- run
update-gene2product.py Gene2Products.new-names-passed.txt
- do a Pull Request with your update
Important:
While a product definition may pass tbl2asn, it doesn't mean that the description is great. Please at least manually glance at the names/product deflines that are in the Gene2Products.new-names-passed.txt
file prior to doing a PR, there are likely a few manual tweaks that can be quickly done to improve the product defline.
Extra Credit:
funannotate annotate
will also produce a file named Gene2Products.need-curating.txt
, these are names/deflines that need manual curation. If you manually curate these data, please validate that they pass tbl2asn prior to adding them to your PR.
Thanks!
