July 13, 2001: fixed bug where some UTRs were mis-annotated in the known genes on the minus strand.

July 13, 2001: fixed bug where some UTRs were mis-annotated in the known genes on the minus strand.

April 5, 2001: chromosome level files (but not contig level files) updated to fix bug where some of the centromeres were misplaced

April 1, 2001: chromosome Y updated to fix a bug that put a large gap between each clone. This bug was limited to the Y chromosome.

April 7, 2001: Affymetrix gene predictions updated and available for bulk download.

January 9, 2001: all files were updated after a bug that had caused some finished clones to be flipped in the assembly was caught and fixed. Our apologies for any inconvenience this has caused.

November 10, 2000: the sequence (.fa) files for two contigs: X/ctg18523/ctg18523.fa and 7/ctg15082/ctg15082.fa were updated. These files had null (zero valued) characters that have been replaced with N characters. These characters were a result of a mismatch between clone sizes in the map and in finished NT contigs. The sequence for chromosomes X and 7, which contain these contigs, has also been updated.

October 11, 2000: chr21.agp and chr22.fa were updated. chr21.agp was a version which went with the UCSC draft assembly rather than the Sanger/NCBI final assembly of this chromosome. chr21.agp and chr21.fa are now in sync. chr22.fa and chr22.agp were also previously out of sync. chr22.fa was obtained from Sanger while chr22.agp had been obtained by NCBI. With this update they are consistent, both NCBI versions. Apologies for any rework this causes you.

October 9, 2000: chr21_random.* and chr22_random.* were removed from the zip-files in the September 5th freeze. These files were relics that should not have been included in the first place. The files chr9_random.agp, chr10_random.agp, chr11_random.agp, chr12_random.agp, chr13_random.agp and chr14_random.agp were updated. There was a bug where the initial field of the initial lines in these files was "(null)" rather than "chrN_random" as it should have been.

September 22, 2000: The zip-files chromFa.zip and chromAgp.zip under the July 17th full data set were updated to fix some duplications of clone contigs that occurred in the chrN_random.agp and chrN_random.fa files contained within these zip-files. These "_random" files are files that contain clone contigs that were mapped to a particular chromosome, but could not be placed at a specific position within that chromosome. They correspond to the "RANDOM" sections of the WashU map. None of the regular chrN.agp or chrN.fa files were affected by this update, nor was any of the information in the contigAgp.zip or contigFa.zip files changed. For convenience, we include two new files, chromRandAgp.zip and chromRandFa.zip, for users who would like to download only the data that has changed. These zips consist of the updated chrN_random.agp and chrN_random.fa files, respectively.

September 4, 2000: The files chromFa.zip and contigFa.zip under the July 17th full data set and the files under July 17th data by individual clone contig were updated to fix some incorrect (null(0)) characters that needed to be replaced by 'n' characters in some Fasta files. The following contig Fasta files on chromosomes 1,8,11,12,16, 17 and 19 were affected:

1/ctg14250/ctg14250.fa
