1 Ensembl and ENA High level overview and use cases Denise Carvalho-Silva Ensembl Outreach Team On behalf of Ensembl and ENA teams European Molecular Biology Laboratories Euroepan Bioinformatics Institute SME Bioinformatics Forum Barcelona 8-9 October 2012

2 Outline Ensembl project: background and goals Data available Data access and Ensembl tools Use cases: Ensembl and ENA Ensembl Outreach and Support Acknowledgements

3 Ensembl project Launched in 1999: before the release of the draft of the human genome Joint project between the EBI and WTSI launched in March 2000

4 Goals Provide comprehensive annotation of genomes + many more Integrate the annotation with other biological data Make them all publicly available

5 Ensembl: an integration point 66 vertebrate genomes Release 68 July 2012

6 Annotation of non-vertebrate genomes Extends the use of Ensembl to other species Wider taxonomic range (v15, 354 genomes) 6 launched in 2009

7 Data available in Ensembl 68 Gene annotation for 66 vetebrate species Variation data for 19 species Comparative Genomics data for 69 species Regulation data for 16 species

8 Data access: browser sites pre.ensembl.org archive.ensembl.org

9 Data access: BioMart web interface to export Ensembl data no programming skills required DATASET FILTER ATTRIBUTES RESULTS

10 BioMart results Tables/sequences Export/

11 Data access: APIs and FTP Ensembl Database (open source): Perl-API, MySQL FTP download site

12 Ensembl Tools Assembly converter ID history converter Virtual Machine Region Report Variant Effect Predictor

13 Gene annotation Automatic pipeline Genome-wide determination + 63 species Manual curation Gene determination on a case-by-case by an annotator + gene lists 5 species

14 Gene annotation on the browser Exons are drawn as boxes. Filled boxes are translated (coding) exons, empty boxes are untranslated regions (UTRs). Havana (00_) Merged ( gold ) Ensembl (20_) Havana (00_) Merged ( gold ) gene set: identical annotation from Ensembl and Havana for human, mouse, zebrafish high confidence and quality

15 Biological Evidence International Nucleotide Sequence databases Protein sequence databases NCBI RefSeq RNAseq (transcriptomic) data

16 European Nucleotide Archive ENA provides a comprehensive, accessible and publicly available repository for nucleotide sequence data Data submission Data search/download

17 Use case 1 - ENA Retrieve and browse the mitochondrial genome of the cave bear (Ursus spelaeus). Mo Hassan

18 Use case 2 - Ensembl and ENA I have submitted a DNA sequence to ENA and got the ID AF Can I view this ID in Ensembl? Which gene is associated with? Which chromosome is the gene found on? What are the neighbouring genes? Is there a homologue to this gene in dog? Find the cdna alignment between the two genes Can I jump to ENA from Ensembl?

19 Use case 3 - Ensembl Our sequencing results identified a known SNP (rs ) in one of our samples in individuals from Barcelona (Spain). What is the major allele for this SNP? Is it the same in all 1000 Genomes super-populations? What is the ancestral allele? Is it conserved in vertebrates? Are there any phenotypes associated with this SNP? How many variants are associated with this phenotype? Which gene is associated to this phenotype?
