[ensembl-dev] chain files to build cross-species coordinates conversion (liftover)

Hi Juan

We currently only produce chain files (for our own Assembly Converter) for those species where we’ve done an assembly mapping through our core pipeline. Perhaps our compara team can chime in with whether it’s feasible to create them based on pairwise alignments.

Cheers

Anne
