About the Mouse genome

Assembly

Ensembl Mouse is based on the NCBI m36 mouse assembly (April 2006, strain C57BL/6J).

Mouse Genome Sequencing ConsortiumThe Mouse Genome Sequencing Consortium is a joint project between The Whitehead Institute/MIT Center for Genome Research, The Washington University Genome Sequencing Center, The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and EMBL - EBI to provide the Mouse genome sequence to the world. We work closely with other Mouse groups to provide an integrated resource (see below for credits).

Annotation

This site provides a full Ensembl gene build for the above assembly. There are some major changes in the assembly; for more details see the NCBI build statistics .

Modifications to the systems have further improved the gene set. 96% of the known genes and 60% of the novel genes from build m35 retain the same Ensembl gene ids in this release.

What's New in Ensembl 41

Mus musculus News

  • RNA updates

    Ensembl RNA data has been updated as follows:

    • New ncRNAs for Zebrafish, Chimp, Medaka, Elephant, Rabbit, Armadillo and Tenrec
    • Updated miRNAs for all chordates.

General News

  • New animated tutorials
    A selection of Ensembl tutorials are now available online as Flash-animated presentations (with popup notes instead of a soundtrack).

  • Compara updates
    Homologies
    Gene trees have been updated to include the 2X genomes and use a multifurcating species tree, and homologues added based on gene trees.

  • Minor schema changes
    analysis_description
    Now has a 'displayable' flag to control whether or not it is usually displayed in the web pages
    xref
    One column has been changed and one added
    • the info_type column has addition ENUM values to give more details about xref provenance
    • A new column 'priority' supports the fetching of xrefs of the same type

    The API has of course been updated to reflect these changes
