The current release of modMine is back and under observation after a hardware problem.

There is a hardware problem that is blocking the current release of modMine (32).

We are trying to solve it: in the meantime please use the archived releases (click on ‘History’ button on www.modencode.org).

Apologies for the inconvenience.

modMine release 31

Release 31 of modMine contains all the submissions validated by the end of august 2012. This amount to 2342 submissions, organised in 96 experiments which in turn are grouped in 13 categories. There are 1665 fly submissions (1642 D. melanogaster) and 677 worm ones (647 C. elegans).

This release features a new implementation of the result tables, which allows a much more interactive exploration of the data.

modMine release 30

Release 30 of modMine contains all the submissions validated by the end of May 2012. This amount to 2185 submissions, organised in 84 experiments which in turn are grouped in 12 categories.

There are 1494 fly submissions (1471 D. melanogaster) and 691 worm ones (661 C. elegans).

This release corrects the treatment of chromatin states, now available as sequence features, allows direct access to quality control images, and improves the detection of experimental factors.

“Understanding transcription in Drosophila sister species”. This webinar will discuss the data produced in Brian Oliver’s lab for several Drosophila species. Space is limited so advance registration is necessary. Please email help@modencode.org to reserve your spot. More details and the schedule are at http://wiki.modencode.org/project/index.php/DCC_Usability_webinars

“Understanding worm and fly transcriptome data”, scheduled for Thursday Mar 1, 12:00 EST.
This webinar will introduce the participant to the transcriptome analysis data generated in Robert Waterston’s lab (C. elegans) and Susan Celniker’s lab (D. melanogaster). Space is limited so advance registration is necessary. Please email help@modencode.org to reserve your spot. More details and the schedule are at http://wiki.modencode.org/project/index.php/DCC_Usability_webinars

modMine release 28

Release 28 consists of 1835 submissions, organised in 72 experiments divided in 12 categories.

It features an improved overlapping feature search.

Next webinar held by Data Coordination Center for modENCODE is scheduled on Thursday Feb 2, 12:00 EST Topic: “Using modENCODE tools: GBrowse and modMINE”. This webinar will discuss the web tools for data retrieval and analysis – data mining interface (modMINE) and genome browser (GBrowse), both accessible via www.modencode.org. Space is limited so advance registration is necessary. Please email help@modencode.org to reserve your spot. More details and the schedule are at http://wiki.modencode.org/project/index.php/DCC_Usability_webinars

modMine release 27

Release 27 of modMine contains all the submissions validated by the end of November 2011 (corresponding to the submission freeze of the 31st of October). Release 27 incorparates 1765 submissions, organised in 72 experiments which in turn are divided in 12 categories.

There are 1224 fly submissions (1201 D. melanogaster) and 541 concern C. elegans.

modENCODE project aims to provide the biological research community with a comprehensive encyclopedia of genomic functional elements in the model organisms C. elegans and D.melanogaster. Data Coordination Center for modENCODE is conducting a series of webinars with the next one, “Understanding worm and fly chromatin modification data” scheduled on Thursday Dec 1, 12:00 EST (Eastern US time). This online webinar will introduce participants to the data obtained in experimental studies of various histone modification marks and chromatin binding proteins, also showing how to visualize and download these data from the modENCODE web site/FTP. Space is limited so advance registration is necessary. Please email help@modencode.org to reserve your spot.
