'''Data for testing'''

1) SNPs data contain 262,338 SNPs (Stroke patient vs. normal) from Affymetrix GeneChip (provided by Prof.Kim)[[BR]]
2) Amino acid sequences of 53 genes (multifasta format) which are located at disease map locus of one form of epilepsy (provided by Vachiranee)[[BR]]
3) Nucleotide sequences (multifasta format) (provided by Riu)[[BR]]
4) Genome data (provided by Takeshi)[[BR]]


'''Softwares''' 

1) BioMart[[BR]]
2) Galaxy[[BR]]
3) jORCA[[BR]]
4) ANNOTATOR[[BR]]

'''*SNPs data'''[[BR]]

ANNOTATOR currently cannot analyse SNPs data [[BR]]
Galaxy (http://galaxyproject.org) and RGenetics (http://rgenetics.org/)
        quality control, ancestry, case-control analysis, tdt, oter statistical tests

'''*Multifasta format (amino acid sequences)'''[[BR]]

'''*Multifasta format (nucleotide sequences)''' [[BR]]

'''*Genome data'''[[BR]]

Question
- Takeshi asked about how to annoate in-house data with comparing with public genome data using BioMart.
- For example, how to annotate Halocynthia roretzi or Molgula tectiformis ESTs comparing with Ciona intestinalis and Ciona savigni using BioMart.
Answer
- Convert Halocynthia data into BioMart format. Install BioMart server locally. Then merge public DB and local data together.
- BioMart format is simple.


Takeshi present an example
- minor animal (ex, H.roretzi, closest animal of Ciona)
- how can analyze Halocynthia roretzi and M.tectiformis which are rare annotation.
- type of data is ESTs, assembled EST cluster,,,etc,,
- potential flow: BioMart -> ANNOTATOR -> TogoDB

DL ESTs of Halocynthia roretzi from NCBI/Taxonomy

TogoDB by Toshiaki
- upload table format  (table services for uploading data will be able to access using WS)

'''*Other comments from Developper side'''[[BR]]

jORCA by Oswaldo

-mapped WABI services
- jORCA: WABI WSDL application can run in local machine after installation
- jORCA can tell which kind of analysis can do with our multifasta format file or anykind of format. For example, using Magallanes: INB*,
if put "FASTA" in Find box, the result come up with 23 tools that can use for analysis. For analysis use myexperiment.org
*Magallanes: INB (Services discovering that discover what kind of analysis can provide for your data format)


ANNOTATOR

- how different between ANNOTATOR and InterProscan
- how can I know the version of each DB use in Prim-seq-algorithm
- it would be nice if user can save result in xml format



== TODOs ==


== Requests from use cases to developper ==

*(TO: IntAct, Cytoscape) [[BR]]
It would be nice if user can retrive PPIs which are expressed in any tissues by using option function. (From: Vachiranee)[[BR]]

*(TO: ANNOTATOR)[[BR]] 
In the conversation with mostly biology-oriented participants of the Hackathon,[[BR]]
we found the following requests for ANNOTATOR to suit their needs:[[BR]]

- Ability to do batch jobs, i.e. large number of proteins annotated by our software (request came from many)[[BR]]
- ANNOTATOR should be downloadable and deployable somewhere local[[BR]]
- We were offered a potential collaboration in terms of using computing power of a Tokyo datacenter. This means the ANNOTATOR's jobs need a mechanism to be submitted to an external site.[[BR]]
- For better results, consistency and the ability to replicate the annotator pipeline in a remote location, we need periodic and automatic updation of the underlying databases of the algorithms.[[BR]]
