TetraMANIA is a tool developed at the University of Toronto, based on the popular GeneMANIA platform, that helps you predict the function of your favorite Tetrahymena genes and gene sets. GeneMANIA finds other genes that are related to one or more input genes using co-expression, protein domain similarity, physical interaction, and other data. You can use GeneMANIA to find new members of a pathway or complex, find additional genes you may have missed in your screen, or find new genes with a specific function.
See the network for each gene on its TGD page, or begin a new search at TetraMANIA. Special thanks to Ron Pearlman and the GeneMANIA team for bringing this tool to the ciliate research community!Posted on 2024-07-22 22:07:23 by ciliate-curator
The full version of Tetrahymena Gene Network Explorer (TGNE) is now available at TGD. Visit Resources > TGNE Genome Files on this page to access and read the TGNE Quick Start Guide. To use the TGNE dashboard, download the HTML files and open them locally in a web browser. Thanks to Lev Tsypin, Michael Bertagna, and Aaron Turkewitz for developing this tool for the ciliate research community!

The Genome Browser and BLAST server at BlepharismaDB have begun showing slightly skewed results compared to the actual gene and protein sequences. We are not aware of this problem at other Ciliate.org databases. We appreciate your patience while we work to resolve this issue at BlepharismaDB.

We have revamped the arrangement of files under the Genome Data tab found under the Resources menu on TGD. The last annotation of the Tetrahymena thermophila genome was published in 2020, and was the fifth version of genome files to be released to the community. We have labeled these "v5" in the file handles, to help denote them as the latest genome files, and to distinguish them from previous and future versions. The other three Tetrahymena species hosted at TGD (elliotti, borealis, and malaccensis) were only sequenced and annotated once to date, and are labeled "v1". All other files available at the site are listed by date under "Legacy Files". If you have any questions, please contact us at ciliate-curator@bradley.edu

Tetrahymena Genome Database Wiki is currently undergoing scheduled website updates. We have replaced the GBrowse genome browser with JBrowse2 and are using this GMOD software to display the T. thermophila macronuclear and micronuclear genome sequences. We have also created a new BLAST server interface. Several community database edits from the last year will be added back before December 1. The T. malaccensis, T. elliotti, and T. borealis genomes will be displayed in JBrowse2 in the next month.

We have made changes to OxyDB to reflect the latest reannotation of the genome. Gene names displayed on OxyDB pages have been changed and now link to the updated genome browser. The previous annotation can still be searched using the BLAST server and legacy GBrowse genome browser.

This Special Issue is open to reporting all studies on ciliates as model organisms, seeking to understand their genetics, cell biology, biochemistry, evolution, ecological adaptation, and the complex mechanisms of signaling systems, from the genes involved to the changes in gene expression during cell response, and from the structure and involved evolution of signal molecules to the membrane traffic in the cells. The deadline for submission is 31 December 2021. We look forward to receiving your contributions.
