Rat - WKY/Bbb RGD_1581635 (UTH_Rnor_WKY_Bbb_1.0)

Rat - WKY/Bbb RGD_1581635 assembly and gene annotation

Assembly

The UTH_Rnor_WKY_Bbb_1.0 assembly was submitted by Inbred Rat Genome Sequencing Project (UTH/UK/UofL) and last updated on 2023-02-18. The assembly is on the chromosome level, consisting of 5009 contigs assembled into 3553 scaffolds. The N50 size is the length such that 50% of the assembled genome lies in blocks of the N50 size or longer. The N50 length for the contigs is 27772074 while the scaffold N50 is 139005698.

Gene annotation

Genome annotation was generated using the Ensembl vertebrate annotation pipeline.

In accordance with the Fort Lauderdale Agreement, please check the publication status of the genome/assembly before publishing any genome-wide analyses using these data.
