The compara orthology build has been updated to include the new Opossum genome, and chimp dnafrag names have been changed to take account of the re-numbering of the Chimp chromosomes (see Chimp news for more information).

All variation databases now include the new consequence_type 'REGULATORY_REGION'.
Features which have accompanying Gene locations, e.g. some AffyProbes, now display a table of gene names and descriptions at the top of the view page. See an example....
The Chimp chromosome numbers have been changed to the new primate standard proposed by E.H.

The zebrafish
genome project is a collaboration between the Sanger Institute and
the zebrafish community, announced during the Sanger Institute
Zebrafish Workshop 2000 and was started in February 2001.
This Ensembl website features the zebrafish assembly version 5 (Zv5), as released on the 27th May 2005. This assembly was produced by integrating the whole genome shotgun assembly with data from the physical map (more information).
Datasets used for the analyses that were provided by collaborators are acknowledged here.
The zebrafish sequencing project is funded by the Wellcome Trust.
You may export data from this site. Please see the Conditions of use for these data.
This site provides a full Ensembl gene set for Zv5. This release is based on a strategy where transcripts are generated based on protein evidence and clustered in genes. Aligned zebrafish cDNA are used to add UTR regions. Genes are named based on the alignment of their coding regions to known entries in public database, in this process ZFIN genes have priority.
A number of Zebrafish clones have also been manually annotated in Vega, these genes are currently accessible in zebrafish Ensembl through a DAS track.
