Specification for New Interactions and Phenotype FTP files
SGD is planning on releasing new interfaces to view physical and genetic interactions as well as new interfaces to view newly curated phenotype data. In order to provide these data in a convenient format to the scientific community, SGD is proposing two new FTP files to replace the current FTP files.
Contents
Phenotype
The new file will be located in the following directory:
ftp://ftp.yeastgenome.org/yeast/literature_curation/phenotype_data.tab
And will replace this file:
ftp://ftp.yeastgenome.org/yeast/literature_curation/phenotypes.tab
Time frame
The new phenotype_data.tab file will be available the week of July 14, 2008.
The old phenotypes.tab file will no longer be updated after July 14, 2008. It will be removed from the FTP directory October 31, 2008.
