Submission of data
All users are welcome to submit their new allele sequences to our database for Candida glabrata. This information will be made available on this web site.
In order to maintain the quality of the data, the databases are curated and all submissions will be checked before entry.
Automated submission system
We have introduced an automated system for submission of new alleles, profiles and isolate data.
- New allele sequences need to be trimmed to the start and end sites of the locus (see existing alleles for comparison). Sequences determined by whole genome methods can be submitted as FASTA files. Sequences determined by Sanger methods should be accompanied by a minimum of two high-quality sequence reads (ABI/SCF trace files), with at least one in each direction, which can be uploaded as supporting data.
- New profile/ST assignment requires that you also submit data for an isolate that has that profile. Please add the isolate name to the id field of the profile submission and make a corresponding submission to the isolate database. To clarify - you need to make both a new profile submission to the sequence definition database and a separate, corresponding, submission to the isolate database (either an isolate or a genome submission). If your profile contains new alleles then you need to submit these for assignment first.
- Whole genome data can be submitted through the system. Please make a genome submission and attach contig files as supporting files. Contigs should be in a single FASTA file for each isolate. Make either an 'isolate' submission or a 'genome' submission - not both.
Users will need an account in order to use the submission system. Please register if you do not already have an account.
Please read the submission system documentation for further details.
