This site provides the first gene annotation set based on the initial
release [July 2004] from the Dog Genome Sequencing consortium.
The assembly is constructed from a WGS read coverage of 7.6x (Q20 bases, assuming a genome of 2.4 Gb). It has an N50 contig length of 123 kb, N50 supercontig length of 41.6 Mb.
The gene build was run via a reasonably standard Ensembl mammalian pipeline, modifed to make optimal choices of source proteins for each gene. This initial analysis gives 20,439 genes with 32,546 transcripts, but lacks a number (around 700) of orthologs to human which seem placeable on the dog genome. We are investigating these in more detail and may release a patched dataset in 2005.
