Hello Everyone,
We are pleased to announce the addition of the PanelApp Australia tracks for the human assemblies hg38 and hg19, available in the PanelApp composite track. The PanelApp track shows expert, crowdsourced diagnostic disease panels among genes, copy-number variants (CNV), and short tandem repeats (STR). PanelApp Australia was originally launched by Australian Genomics in 2019 in collaboration with Genomics England and is currently supported by Genomics Australia. The PanelApp Australia track contains data that differs from the Genomics England PanelApp; more details are available on the track description page.
We have also updated the mouse hover for the Genomics England PanelApp track, which now shows the gene name, associated panel, mode of inheritance (if known), related phenotypes, and confidence level.
We want to thank Jean-Madeleine for this data request and feedback, as well as Zornitza Stark from Australia PanelApp for providing guidance. We would also like to thank Beagan Nguy, Lou Nassar, and Gerardo Perez of the Genome Browser team for the development and release of this track.
