[ensembl-dev] Pseudogenes

Dear Duarte,

This is what I've found: we've got ENSG00000225933 which matches the location of RPS14P5 but has not been cross referenced to it

http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Share/8c89bfc3622b6285805b2cc126330452177451441

http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Matches?db=core;g=ENSG00000225933;r=2:87653716-87656517;t=ENST00000452984

(note 1: RBS14P5 is available in Ensembl as RefSeq gene models from using the NCBI GFF3 files)
(note 2:  the orientation of our locus which was manually annotated by HAVANA is different from what Entrez Gene reports on http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/7845)

Regarding the microRNA, we can find its GFF3 import in Ensembl

http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Share/f817ffc667f2e65e2e9e76905dac5b39177451441

which overlaps our current ENSG00000266070 and has been cross referenced to MIR3960 instead of MIR2861

http://www.genenames.org/cgi-bin/gene_symbol_report?hgnc_id=HGNC:41595

It could be a good idea to contact HAVANA and see if they can manually annotate this ncRNA.

Cheers,
Denise
