I had to reload several table groups in Sprout version 21 due to misunderstandings on my part as to how some relationships work. In particular, some RNA roles are still in the aliases, so aliases are a many-to-many relationship rather than one-to-many.
It is also the case that some CAS IDs and compound names belong to multiple compounds. These relationships are now many-to-many.
There is an EC number with a tab inside it: 2.6.1.2. I don't know which subsystem it's in, but the role name is putative alanine transaminase (glutamyc pyruvic transaminase). I've added code in the Sprout loader to fix this, but it's probably better to fix the actual subsystem spreadsheet if someone can find it.
There is also a feature somewhere that has a right curly brace in its alias list. Because of the way the aliases are generated, the right curly brace does not have any features attached to it in Sprout, so it's not going to affect anything; however, the down side is that I have no idea which feature has the bogus alias.
It will be several days before version 21 is ready for testing. Because version 21 contains a major database change, I am currently targeting changes to version 20. The plan is to slipstream in a version 20a in the next few days. The development copy of version 20a is on the mirror site. The major change for 20a is the incorporation of the scan-for-matches search into the BLAST search page. There are also some bug reports from Leslie and Claudia that I am still researching.
The Mirror Site is currently all messed up, but the plan is to have it ready for hammering in a few hours. (Ready for hammering means the bug fixes are in but the new search is not yet done.) I will do another blog post when it's hammer time, at which time we need to find any bugs so I can fix them before we post to the live site.
