Focused crawls are collections of frequently-updated webcrawl data from narrow (as opposed to broad or wide) web crawls, often focused on a single domain or subdomain.
NCBI’s Genome Remapping Service (NCBI Remap) allows you to map annotation data from one genomic assembly to another for a selected set of organisms. This may be particularly helpful in updating your annotations for the human reference genome assembly, which has recently been updated to the new version, GRCh38. The newest blog post on NCBI Insights describes how Remap works and how it allows you to analyze data in the context of the newest genome assembly. Finally, the blog post provides links to Remap-related documentation including an overview, FAQs, and a YouTube tutorial.
NCBI has created a YouTube video tutorial showing you how to generate a PDF rendering of your Sequence Viewer display. The short clip takes you through the downloading process, and shows you what you can do with your file after creating a PDF.
Genome Workbench 2.7.12 has been released. The update includes several new features like a faster Tree Renderer, redesigned data import and an improved GFF format reader. The release notes include more information on features, fixes and improvements.
