Current Sprout Tasks, by Priority and Due Date

Priority and Task Due Date Note
1 Refresh nmpdr-1 code to get pin server back. 4/10/2007
1 Fix version date on front page. 4/10/2007
1 Test veracity of sig genes tool. 4/10/2007 Note: S.pyogenes core: smallest genome (bp), MGAS9429, compared to 11 others, commonality = 100%, pegs = 1369 on 1/29; 1359 on 4/10

M1 core: strains SF370 and 5005, commonality = 100%; pegs = 1580 on 1/29 = 1580 on 4/10;

M12 core: strains 2096 and 9429, commonality = 100%; pegs = 1655 on 1/29; = 1668 on 4/10;

S.pyogenes M3 core: strains SSI-1 and MGAS 315, commonality = 100%; pegs = 1821 on 1/30; 1820 on 4/10
1 Move NMPDR to staging server. 4/11/2007
1 Find out if you can get the alignment output from BLAST. Note: Put alignments below result table and above search redisplay box. Link from score column to associated alignment.
1 Allow blasting for DNA.
1 Explore adding word size, matrix selection, and gap penalties to blast search.
1 Add taxonomy tree to the advanced search.
1 Add serotype and NCBI data to Genomes. Note: I don't know about a column mentioning serotypes that Leslie added.
And I am looking and can't find it. All variant and serotype information I can find is by expanding the PathInfo button. However, the information there is not complete and in places there are errors
(organism variant links to NCBI taxonomy for a different variant).
Whether something is called a variant or a serotype is a matter of history, not of phylogeny (depends on who called whatever first).
If we were to add variant information (and I am all for it), the best would be to harvest the NCBI Taxonomy Browser, and collect all subspecies level entries for our organisms, with their links to the specific NCBI page, that will then have the table on the right of the screen with all the Entrez records. Maybe in table format?
What do you think?
2 Cut over v19 4/13/2007
3 Convert ERDB to work with PPO databases.
3 Load drug target data into Sprout.
3 Convert NMPDR to a single-server model.
