Background
|
Ensembl and Vectorbase jointly present the tenfold whole genome shotgun assembly (AgamP3) of the PEST strain of
Anopheles gambiae, as prepared by The
International Anopheles Genome project. Ensembl data and displays for A. gambiae are made possible through a
joint effort by the Ensembl Group and VectorBase.
Changes between AgamP3.3 and AgamP3.4 gene builds
AgamP3.4 was released at VectorBase in July 2007, replacing the AgamP3.3 gene build. The gene, transcript, and
protein identifiers are now in VectorBase format. (Please see this
document for more information on the new identifiers.) More information about the new gene build can be
found here. Full lists of all the updated identifiers can also be
downloaded.
8893 scaffolds were produced as part of the sequencing project with chromosome arms 2L, 2R, 3L, 3R, and X being
represented by 12, 23, 22, 10, and 13 large scaffolds respectively. Two artificial chromosomes have been made
from unmapped scaffolds concatenated together in size order. The Y_unplaced chromosome has 55 small unordered
scaffolds putatively mapped to the Y chromosome. All 8029 remaining unplaced scaffolds are part of the 'UNKN'
(unknown) chromosome.
The genome assembly presented here (AgamP3, February 2006) is a revised assembly based on the whole genome
shotgun assembly of the PEST strain of Anopheles gambiae produced by the The International Anopheles Genome
Project and described in Holt et al (October 2002) and Mongin et al. AgamP3 incorporates improvements to the
placement of scaffolds on chromosomes, the designation of some scaffolds and scaffold segments as alternative
assemblies ("haplotypes") and the designation of some scaffolds as probable bacterial contaminants. A
description of this new assembly is summarized under Documentation/Current Assembly.
