GENCODE - Home page The goal of the GENCODE project is to identify and classify all gene features in the human and mouse genomes with high accuracy based on biological evidence, and to release these annotations for the benefit of biomedical research and genome interpretation GENCODE now offers a first catalog of human promoter windows

GENCODE - FAQ Some GENCODE files contain annotation on reference chromosomes only, thus excluding other sequence regions as unlocalized and unplaced scaffolds, assembly patches and alternate loci (haplotypes) What is the "basic" annotation in the GTF GFF3? The transcripts tagged as "basic" form part of a subset of representative transcripts for each gene
GENCODE - Data Access The current version of GENCODE is the default geneset in the Ensembl Genome Browser for human and mouse The Ensembl data can also be accessed using the options listed below: BioMart data retrieval system Download from the FTP site Access to MySQL public server Perl interface Access to REST server The UCSC Genome Browser hosts selected GENCODE
The GENCODE Project: The aims of the current GENCODE phase running from 2021 to 2025 are to continue to improve the coverage and accuracy of the GENCODE human and mouse gene sets by enhancing and extending the annotation of all evidence-based gene features in the human genome at a high accuracy, including protein-coding loci with alternatively splices variants, non
GENCODE - Human Release Statistics Human Statistics about the current GENCODE Release (version 49) The statistics derive from the gtf file that contains only the annotation of the main chromosomes For details about the calculation of these statistics please see the README_stats txt file General stats
The GENCODE Primary transcript set The GENCODE Primary set provides an opportunity to simplify variant interpretation by reducing the number of variant transcript predicted molecular consequences needing review These data are only now displayed on variant and transcript pages in the browser for GENCODE Primary transcripts
