Hi Marek, don't feel sorry. I'm on it. regards, lieven
Hi Lieven,, I am deeply sorry, but two more problems emerged:
1. The Artemini tool fails to open for the following two models: Esi0065_0017 and Esi0080_0048. After clicking on the "Modify using Artemini" the Artemini starts to load but it stops with an error message "The application encountered an unforseen error"
2. I tried several times to save the description of the Esi0000_0141 gene, but the text filled into the "Short name" and "Definition" fields always failed to be saved and the edit was not recorded in the list of my 5 most recent annotations at the home page.
Could you, pease, look also on these troubles? Thanks, Marek

Hi Marek,
sorry for that! We'll look into it.
thanks, lieven
Hi Lieven,
I am working hard on the annotation but unfortunatelly still some unexpected problems emerge. Now I face a trouble with annotating the gene Esi0030_0124. When I insert the correct coordinates, which are as follows:
570185..570280,574970..575068,575392..575581,576259..576353,577128..577181,579928..579975
However, after I try to save the change to the server, the program replies with an error message, and when I open the window with the coordinates, they are changed so that they look like this:
2,574970..575068,575392..575581,576259..576353,577128..577181,579928..579975
I have not seen this behaviour with other genes, so I have no explanation for it. What is going on?
Thanks, Marek

Hi Marek,
This is a not so easy issue (for us! not for you). the best option would be to select the model labeled 'CDS' and then insert your new coordinates. The other models you can ignore.
grtz, lieven
Hi Lieven,
thanks for the comments, it now seems that he problem with saving the changes of gene models has been solved. I am sorry, however, to say that I have just encountered another point requiring a discussion with you. I found that some genes I am annotating are incorrectly predicted as two or even three independent loci. How to correct these instances? Should I merge somehow the models into one, which I subsequetly modify bu inserting correct coordinates? If yes, how should I do it? Or should I simply insert the correct coordinates into a field of one of the partial "submodels" and ignore or delete the remaining? Thanks, Marek

Hi Marek,
I spotted the problem. You are talking about locus Esi0425_0013, no? I can see that you made an edit in the DB, but the problem is that there seems to be a double save. If you check in the history the last-1 date you'll see your edit.
We are sorting this out as quickly as possible.
best regards, lieven
