What is the data source for IDs like FGSG 10629? (1)

There have been no changes to this discussion for at least 30 days. If it is concluded, you may want to write a summary.

Currently, they are marked with Ensemble, but the link out leads to a 'not found' page.

Hello Egon,

FGSG IDs like FGSG10629 and FGSG_03537 are gene IDs for the fungal organism Gibberella zeae stored at ENSEMBL FUNGI (http://fungi.ensembl.org/index.html).

Currently the outlink is not correct between Wikipathways and Ensembl due to database issues. I contacted Alex Pico (Wikipathways) yesterday and he started a discussion with Ensembl to get this issue solved. He thinks a workaround in Wikipathways will be available by end of Dec 2013.

I am quite keen to have gene IDs such as FGSG_03537 in the pathway annotation and not use a work-a-round such as Uniprot IDs. The reason for this is that there is a recently funded project called PhytoPath (http://www.phytopathdb.org). The PhytoPath project links phenotypic information from gene deletion studies taken from the peer-reviewed literature (collected in the database project http://www.phibase.org) and links them to genes in Ensembl Fungi. Ensembl Fungi displays genes together with their knockout phenotypes directly in a chromosome browser. An example is the TRI5 gene (http://fungi.ensembl.org/Gibberella_zeae/Gene/Summary?g=FGSG_03537;r=2:6647925-6649292;t=FGSG_03537T0).

In the PhytoPath project ~100 agriculturally relevent pathogens will be included over the next years.

Best regards

Thanks.
