Jack W. Wheelahan's dataset provides a list of genes identified within the EEHV1B_AUP_01_2023 genome. It was created by transferring annotations from existing Elephant Endotheliotropic Herpesvirus genomes and was last updated in May 2026. The dataset includes disambiguation of gene naming conventions, genomic positions, proposed functions, and comparative identity metrics.
Use Cases
- Resolve gene naming conventions based on the disambiguation information provided.
- Map gene positions and functions within the EEHV1B_AUP_01_2023 genome based on the annotation transfer.
- Conduct comparative genomic analysis between EEHV1B_AUP_01_2023 and EEHV1B reference or EEHV1A genomes.
Strengths
- Includes disambiguation for two different gene naming conventions.
- Provides comparative identity data against reference EEHV1B and EEHV1A genomes.
- Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- The dataset is small (26.1 KB), indicating a limited scope focused on a single genome.
