GeneX-2.0 DB: Reporter Table
|
| Table Type | Inherits | Comment |
| DATA | Identifiable | The Reporter table describes the genetic elements that are used as probes in gene expression experiments (e.g. the cDNA elements that are immobilized on a glass slide). They can be cloned genes, ESTs, etc. |
| Column Information |
| Column Name | Full Name | Data Type | Not NULL | Comment |
| chromosome | Chromosome Location | char128 | false | the chromosome on which the Reporter resides |
| clone_name | Clone Name | char128 | false | |
| clone_provider_con_fk | Clone Provider Contact | int | false | useful for tracking where the sequence feature came from if the clone was provided by another source (an untested feature at best, shouldn't this be handled by the smp_fk??) |
| end_position | End Position | int | false | the location with respect to the origin of the chromosome |
| other_name | Other Name | char128 | false | |
| other_type | Other Type | char128 | false | an alternative name by which the entity is known (doesn't this want to be a restricted vocab??) |
| plate_column | Plate Column | char128 | false | column reference to indentify the well on the plate this sequence feature came from. |
| plate_identifier | Plate | char128 | false | Used to identify a source plate for this sequence feature This could be a reference to the spotting plate, or it could refer to the original clone library plate. |
| plate_row | Plate Row | char128 | false | Row reference to indentify the well on the plate this sequence feature came from. |
| provider_con_fk | Provider Contact | int | false | the researcher that provided the reporter info |
| rep_name | Sequence Feature Name | char128 | true | an identifier such as EST or ORF name, by which the entity is known in the lab using it is expression experiments |
| rep_pk | Accession Number | serial | false | |
| rep_type | Sequence Feature Type | char128 | true | conrolled vocab |
| sequence | Sequence | text | false | may be used when dealing with ESTs that have not been submitted to a public database (won't be used for public version, but may be useful for local installations) |
| smp_fk | Sample | int | false | sample information for the Reporter this may be useful for identifying the state of the organism from which the sequence feature was obtained |
| spc_fk | Species | int | false | the species to which the Reporter belongs |
| start_position | Start Position | int | false | the location with respect to the origin of the chromosome |
