Description of Schema

This page provides a partial description of the database tables used by The GeneNetwork. This schema is dynamically updated from the MySQL database. Short text annotation at the top of many tables is entered manually. [Implemented by Hongqiang Li, Aug 2005.]

Suggested Conventions for Table Names: Please start with an upper case character for each distinct word used to name the table, for example "AccessLog", "AvgMethod", "ProbeFreeze". A mix of upper case and lower case is fine. In general, avoid unscore. However, use of the underscore character is apppropriate for particular freezes or source of data in a table, for example, "GeneList_hg17" and "CeleraInfo_mm6".

Suggested Conventions for Field Names: Use of lower case is preferred when possible. Separate words in a field name with underscore: examples: ip_address, allele_B6. Please try to make field names self-explanatory to a bioinformatics expert. Please annotate and describe the field name when you make a new table or add a new field. Avoid cryptic suffixes and prefixes to field names.

AccessLog

Comment:
This table tracks access time and IP addresses. Used for logging in registered users and tracking cookies.
Created by Jintao Wang, 2004.
FieldTypeNullKeyDefaultExtraForeign_KeyAnnotation
id int(10) unsigned NO PRI   auto_increment   internal identifier

AvgMethod

Comment:
Should be deprecated. Used by ProbeSetFreeze (March 2016 by RWW)

A table that simply lists the transformations used to generate microarray probe or probe set data. For example, for the Affymetrix platform MAS5, PDNN, RMA, are common transformation methods. For Illumina, the transform methods included Rank, RankInv, LOESS, LOESS_NB (no background). A single raw data set can be transformed in several ways, giving rise to a family of related data sets. This table was originally set up by Jintao Wang. We should confirm that this table is still used. Possibly a development vestige. "mlratio" was added by Evan Williams June 2008 to describe the Agilent "mean log" method used by Lusis and colleagues.
The table is referenced in ProbeSetFreeze, so it is still in use on Dec 14,2006. 6 records on Dec14, 2006. ID12065

BXDSnpPosition

Comment:
PLEASE CORRECT TALBE AND FIELD NAMES. A table created by Hongqiang (October 2007) to be used to display SNPs on the interval maps for all crosses of mice including BXD, AXB, AKXD and B6D2F2 mouse crosses. Field are not well annotated. All data in this table is taken from the main mouse SNP table. This table should be refreshed every day or week. Hongqiang would need to write a script to do this. Not done yet (Nov 13, 2007). Reviewed by Kev and Rob, July 2008. Evan may have used this table to get SNPs to show up on the BHF2 interval maps. Still needs to be renamed. Needs to handle CXB RI set and LXS RI set.

CaseAttribute

Comment:
This is a new table created by Zach Sloan and Lei Yan in 2014-2015 to allow us to add cofactors and metadata that typically display in the Trait Data and Analysis page along side of the phenotype values for each case/sample. For example, if you review any of the human data sets where GROUP = "Brain, Development: Normal Gene Expression (Yale/Sestan)" you will find CaseAttribute data for the expression data sets such as Sex, PostMortem Interval (PMI), Age, Ethnicity, Tissue, pH.

This table may not really be necessary, since all data here could also be put into the Phenotype data table. But then we need code that would allow the user (or programmer or annotator) to decide what cofactors to show in the Trait Data and Analysis page.

CeleraINFO_mm6

Comment:
PLEASE DELETE: DEPRECATED: use the Snp table instead.

CeleraINFO_mm6 provides information on single nucelotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for five strains of mice, C57BL/6J, DBA/2J, A/J, 129S1/SvImJ, and 129X1/SvJ, obtained from Celera Genomics by Alex Williams and Chris Vincent, summer 2003.

"mm6" refers to the megabase positions taken from the sixth build of Mus musculus as presented in UCSC Genome Browser (also known as NCBI Mouse Build 34 that was current from March 2005 through approximately March 2006).

mm6 data were generated by Yanhua Qu by BLAT sequence alignment of ~300 bp of sequence around each SNP. This table was generated by Robert Crowell and Yanhua Qu, June 2005, for use on WebQTL physical maps.

Chr_Length

Comment:
This table provides the approximate length of a chromosome in megabases taken from the most recent public genome assemblies of several species. As of Aug. 2005, this table contains lengths for mouse, rat, and Arabidopsis chromosomes. No data for Barley since there is not physical assembly yet. We are usually missing the Y chromosome and the mitochondrial genome (Chr Y and Chr M, respectively).

Some of these fields should be semantically registered (SpeciesId, Chromosome_name).

Comment:
Dataset owner or creator. Not sure how this is used? Is it used to for data access or password control? Check with Arthur Centeno or Lei Yan if this is used to define private ProbeSetFreeze (RWW Mar 2016). Probably created by Arthur Centeno 2014-2015. Why is the word "Map" in the table name?

EnsemblChip

Comment:
Deprecated and not a function in GN2. For that matter, not even a function of most array data in GN1. One of several tables created by Hongqiang Li to be used with Probe Tool functions for M430 Affymetrix array to show location of probes only in mouse. All locations are equivalent to mm8 in mouse. Xusheng Wang points out that this could be done from UCSC browser.

This table should also be updated at some point.


Probe locations were obtained from Ensembl ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/current_mus_musculus/data/mysql/mus_musculus_core_43 by Hongqiang Li. We made use of text files and MySQL tables called:

oligo_feature.txt.table.gz (25774 KB file of 3/1/07 1:53:00 AM)

GORef

Comment:
Gene Ontology identifiers linked to gene symbols. Only properly implemented for mouse. Note that this table does not have a GORef.species field. GN1 code does return hits even for Drosophila but symbols have mouse format. Check how this happens. (RWW March 2016)

Important and should probably be updated periodically. Used for GO searches in GN1 and GN2. E.g. GO:0045202 searches for synapse-associated genes listed in the Gene Ontology using information in this table.

Genbank

Comment:
DEPRECATED. Apparently only used by the "Probe Tools". This table contains a complete or truncated copy of GenBank sequence data associated with particular Affymetrix Probe sets. When a GenBank sequence entry was long, we took only the most terminal 1000 nt under the assumption that this was the 3' end of the sequence. This assumption will often be incorrect. This table is used primarily in association with Affymetrix Probe sets generated using GenBank sequence. The Probe Tools table in GN is able to BLAT the GenBank sequences provided in this table.

GeneChip

Comment:
This table lists the array platforms that are used by the GeneNetwork. For example Affymetrix U74Av2, M430A, RAE230A. etc.
The name 'GeneChip' is much too specific. 'Platform' would be better term.

A new record can be inserted only if the relevant record in Species table is in place. ID1206

Please use the following conventions for naming array platform:

MG_U74AV2 is a good form but
Affy_U74Av2 would be better

Start with a four letter vendor code (Upper case lower case underscore)
"Affy_" for Affymetrix
"Illu_" for Illumina
"Agil_"

then use the name of the array given by the vendor
for example: U74AV2, MOE430A, MOE430B, MOE430V2, RAE230A, G4121A, MOUSE6.0, MOUSE6.1, MOUSE6.2

Geno

Comment:
Genotype marker information, not the actual genotypes. Should probably be renamed "Marker_Information" or "Genotype_Marker_Info". If genotype data is held in MySQL, then this table is used for updating genotypes and for the production of a new ".GENO" file after an update. Currently, the update feature i used almost exclusively for BXD mouse cohort. Contains 400,000 rows each with sequence data around markers (usually SNPs, but some microsatellites and other weird variants). (RWW March 2016)

This table contains descriptions of markers, the same ones that are used in the corresponding .geno file. This table is exactly the same as Geno_0609, so one of them might be redundant and also has one-to-one relationship with Geno2 table. For some information there is more than one entry (marker name, position) which may lead to inconsistent state. The marker fields look like references to single nucleotide poymorphisms within the marker, but this hasn't been confirmed.

For a few groups, this table can be updated by authorized users using an interface at www.genenetwork.org/manager.html (Update Genotype functions) (comment updated March 14, 2016 by RWW)

This is the table that actually contains genotypes for individuals. Could be renamed "Genotype_Data".

ProbeData

Comment:
Table with fine-grained probe level Affymetrix data only. Contains 1 billion rows March 2016. This table may be deletable since it is only used by the Probe Table display in GN1. Not used in GN2 (double-check).

In comparison the "ProbeSetData" table contains more molecular assay data, including probe set data, RNA-seq data, proteomic data, and metabolomic data. 2.5 billion rows March 2016. In comparison, ProbeData contains data only for Affymetrix probe level data (e.g. Exon array probes and M430 probes).


"ProbeData.StrainId" should be "CaseId" or "SampleId".

"ProbeData" should probably be "AssayData" or something more neutral.

ProbeFreeze

Comment:
About the Name: ProbeFreeze is a stupid (historic) name for this table. The table should be renamed to more general and sensible such as "Data_Set_Group_Info" table and ProbeSetFreeze should be changed to something like "Data_Set_Info" table. At present, every ProbeSetFreeze record needs a parent ProbeFreeze record, even when the relation is 1-to-1.

About This Table: The ProbeFreeze table provides information about the overall set of microarray hybridization experiments - a meaningful name that identifies the experiment, the link to the microarray chip name, the link to tissue, organ or other generic biological material name, the link to the mapping population, inbred strain set name or similar used in the experiment.

A ProbeFreeze may have a subset of ProbeSetFreezes (one ProbeFreeze to many ProbeSetFreezes) to which it belongs as children data sets (for example, male data only, female data only, RMA data or MAS5 data. The name provides a short description of the experiment.

ProbeSet

Comment:
PLEASE CHANGE TABLE NAME and rework fields carefully. This is a terrible table but it works well (RWW March 2016). It is used in combination with the crucial TRAIT DATA and ANALYSIS pages in GN1 and GN2. It is also used by annotators using the UPDATE INFO AND DATA web form to correct and update annotation. It is used by Arthur to enter new annotation files and metadata for arrays, genes, proteins, metabolites. The main problem with this table is that it is doing too much work.

Initially (2003) this table contained only Affymetrix ProbeSet data for mouse (U74aV2 initially). Many other array platforms for different species were added. At least four other major categories of molecular assays have been added since about 2010.

1. RNA-seq annotation and sequence data for transcripts using ENSEMBL identifiers or NCBI NM_XXXXX and NR_XXXXX type identifiers

2. Protein and peptide annotation and sequence data (see BXD Liver Proteome data, SRM and SWATH type data) with identifiers such as "abcb10_q9ji39_t311" for SRM data and "LLGNMIVIVLGHHLGKDFTPAAQAA" for SWATH data where the latter is just the peptide fragment that has been quantified. Data first entered in 2015 for work by Rudi Aebersold and colleagues.

3. Metabolite annotation and metadata (see BXD Liver Metabolome data) with identifiers that are usually Mass charge ratios such as "149.0970810_MZ"

4. Epigenomic and methylome data (e.g. Human CANDLE Methylation data with identifiers such as "cg24523000")

It would make good sense to break this table into four or more types of molecular assay metadata or annotation tables) (AssayRNA_Anno, AssayProtein_Anno, AssayMetabolite_Anno, AssayEpigenome_Anno, AssayMetagenome_Anno), since these assays will have many differences in annotation content compared to RNAs.

Some complex logic is used to update contents of this table when annotators modify and correct the information (for example, updating gene symbols). These features requested by Rob so that annotating one gene symbol in one species would annotate all gene symbols in the same species based on common NCBI GeneID number. For example, changing the gene alias for one ProbeSet.Id will changing the list of aliases in all instances with the same gene symbol.

If the ProbeSet.BlatSeq (or is this ProbSetTargetSeq) is identical between different ProbeSet.Ids then annotation is forced to be the same even if the symbol or geneID is different. This "feature" was implemented when we found many probe sets with identical sequence but different annotations and identifiers.

ProbeSetData

Comment:
Almost all important molecular assay data is in this table including probe set data, RNA-seq data, proteomic data, and metabolomic data. 2.5 billion rows March 2016. In comparison, ProbeData contains data only for Affymetrix probe level data (e.g. Exon array probes and M430 probes).


"StrainId" should be "CaseId" or "SampleId".

"ProbeSetData" should probably be "AssayData" or something more neutral.

ProbeSetFreeze

Comment:
RENAME: AssayDataSet or something more neutral. Delete the word "Freeze" from this table.

ProbeSetFreeze contains the information of the data analysis method used in the processing the microarray experiment data described in the ProbeFreeze table and the confidentiality of the resulting data. New records should be inserted only if the relevant ProbeFreeze and AvgMethod records are in place. The use of the four different name fields effectively containing 4 versions of the same information needs to be clarified. 120 records on Dec 2006. About 700 records March 2016.

The name of a data set in GN is "ProbeSetFreeze.FullName" and is used in several output tables and graphs, for example ClusterMap in this format -- ProbesetID::FullName


Comment by PP and RW March 2016: This key table needs to be evaluated and renamed. Was initially designed to hold large microarray data, but now must accommodate any large "omics" data, but not genotypes and not classic phenotypes. Some trait data is ambiguous such as metagenomics. Metagenomics probably should be included here rather than in Phenotypes.

Comment:
This is a table of cohorts/populations that have associated Phenotype data in the "Type" menu of the GN "Select and Search" page. As of March 2016 this table has 34 rows corresponding to 34 Published Phenotype data sets for different groups. When we enter a new group (cohort or population or RI set) that will have phenotypes into GeneNetwork, then we need to add data to this table. Be careful, when you add a new "PublishFreeze.Name" here then you must also make sure that the Group name (e.g. "BXD" in the "InbredSet" table) exactly matches the first part of the PublishFreeze.Name" or else the code will generate an error.

DEPRECATED. Only used in GN1 between 2004 and about 2006 to display images of microarray data.

A table that provides access to low-level array data in GeneNetwork. This table is used only from tables embedded in INFO files such as http://www.genenetwork.org/dbdoc/BR_U_1203_MR.html. The table will call an Image URL and CEL file URL, a DAT file URL, etc. This format and table has not been used since about 2005. We should develop a better method to allow access to raw data from GN.

Strain

Comment:
RENAME "SubjectDescription" . This table to keep track of case/subject identifiers (cases or F2 or strains). But we have the problem that there may be multiple observation per subject or the time series data for one case, (multiple ages for one strain, etc). Generic sample/case identifiers here.
Contains 14,000 rows as of March 2016. We really need a new table "ObservationOfSubject" (RWW 2016)

Apurva would like to extend this table to include "DateOfBirth" and "BatchNumber".

StrainXRef

Comment:
RENAME something like "SubjectXRef". This table links the information in the Strain table with InbredSet and provides order for the strains in the mapping population.
FieldTypeNullKeyDefaultExtraForeign_KeyAnnotation
InbredSetId smallint(5) unsigned NO PRI 0   InbredSet:Id The Id of the mapping population in the InbredSet table.
StrainId int(20) NO PRI     Strain:Id The Id of the mapping population strain in Strain table.
OrderId int(20) YES         Order of the strains in the Genotype file or mapping population, follows the pattern 10, 20 rather than 1,2.
Used_for_mapping char(1) YES   N      
PedigreeStatus varchar(255) YES          


Tissue

Comment:
(RWW Nov 2007): A small table that may be used to build pull-down menus in GN1 and GN2. This table contains simple one to three word terms describing the tissue, cell, organ, or other biological material used in the microarray experiment. This table is used in conjunction with the FIND RECORDS "Type" field.

As of Nov 2007 this table contained only 15 rows:
As of Mar 2016 this table contains 158 rows.

Whole Brain
Cerebellum
Hematopoietic Cells
Liver
etc.

How is this table used? Probably to create menu fields. Talk with Chris Mungall and colleagues about controlled vocabulary for APIs.
