“As of November 2023, NCBI’s Remap tool will no longer be available. Due to low usage of Remap, a tool that projects annotation data from one coordinate system to another, we are focusing our development efforts on our more popular resources and tools. ”
“In June 2023, NCBI’s Assembly and Genome record pages will be redirected to new Datasets pages as part of our ongoing effort to modernize and improve your user experience”
“Ever wonder who is behind all the data at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)? Who is developing and managing the NCBI website, as well as our various products, tools, and resources?” 35th anniversary！🎂
“We encourage submitters to screen for and remove contaminating human reads from data files prior to submission to SRA. To support investigators in this effort, we offer a tool to remove human sequence contamination from your SRA submissions!”
“NCBI Gene now has descriptive information about genes from the Alliance of Genome Resources for organisms including Caenorhabditis elegans, Danio rerio, Drosophila melanogaster, Homo sapiens, Mus musculus, Rattus norvegicus, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.”
“PubMed Central® (PMC) is a free full-text archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature at the U.S. National Institutes of Health’s National Library of Medicine (NIH/NLM)”
“The Trace Archive at NCBI will be retired as of June 17, 2022. You may continue to retrieve Trace Archive content by searching the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) using TI number, organism, or center name at the time of retirement.”
“Release 7.0 of the NCBI Hidden Markov models (HMM), used by the Prokaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline (PGAP), is now available for download. You can search this collection against your favorite prokaryotic proteins to identify their function using the HMMER sequence analysis package.”
“NCBI is an active partner of the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP), who recently published a series of papers on the initial results of their efforts to sequence all 70,000 vertebrate species”
“Genome Workbench Submission Wizard to replace Sequin for prokaryotic and eukaryotic genome submissions in January 2021” you need to be aware that Sequin will be retired in January 2021 #NCBI
