About Archive Ensembl

The main Ensembl site www.ensembl.org is updated with the latest data on a monthly basis.

The Ensembl Archive sites have been set up so there is a stable link for at least two years to pages from a particular release (e.g. version 26 from November 2004) in Ensembl.

These links will be suitable for referring to Ensembl pages in publications.

A selection of older archives are being maintained, but the availability of these sites cannot be guaranteed.

For all enquiries, please contact the Ensembl HelpDesk (helpdesk@ensembl.org).

Notes

• Ensembl aims to maintain stable identifiers for genes (ENSG), transcripts (ENST), proteins (ENSP) and exons (ENSE) as long as possible. Changes within the genome sequence assembly or an updated genome annotation may dramatically change a gene model. In these cases, the old set of stable IDs is retired and a new one assigned.
• Ensembl protein family identifiers (ENSF), EST gene indentifiers (ENSESTG) and Genscan identifiers (GENSCAN) are currently not stable.
• DAS sources are not archived so any shown are current data.
• Pre-site species are not listed in the archive sites as these change more frequently.
• BLAST and SSAHA are not currently available from the archive site.
