It’s another Thursday, and that means it’s time for another #tweetorial! Today, we want to show you how you can view RefSeq #annotations on Ensembl 🥳

While Ensembl gene models are annotated directly on the reference genome, #RefSeq are annotated on mRNA sequences. In other words: genome browsers will have different annotation methods, so you might be interested in comparing these annotations side-by-side 📖🤔

👂🏽You say you want to make direct comparisons of annotations between @NCBI’s RefSeq and Ensembl? Now is your time to try it out on Ensembl! 🏃🏽

1/ Do you need reference sequence files from #Ensembl? All of the different files available can be confusing. Here’s a thread to help you decide which files you need…🧵

2/ Whole-genome reference files for each species in Ensembl can be found on the FTP site 🧑🤝🧑🐭🐄🐶🐟
👉 ftp.ensembl.org
If you’re studying non-vertebrate species, you’ll need to use the Ensembl Genomes FTP site 🌾🦠🦟

3/ Let’s explore the different directories and files available
1/ Knowing the frequency for alleles of genomic variants in populations around the world helps us understand phenotypes and disease 🌎🌍🌏
We’re here to take you through the data in @ensembl step-by-step. A thread…🧵

2/ The way you approach this problem will depend on if you are starting with a #gene of interest or if you already have the ID (e.g rs699) of a variant for which you want to find the observed allele frequencies.
3/ If you are starting with a gene, search for the gene name or ID from the #Ensembl homepage and navigate to the Gene tab.
