==Creating URL Links to Ensembl==
This page is no longer maintained.
* On the Ensembl details pages, there are links to the Ensembl Transcript ID and Ensembl Protein ID details pages.
e.g.
  Ensembl Gene Link: ENST00000370314
  Ensembl Protein: ENSP00000359337
where the IDs are the links to Ensembl (http://www.ensembl.org) pages.
 
* Ensembl is updated every 2 months and the previous version is archived. Check Ensembl [http://www.ensembl.org] for the date of the correct Ensembl release for the track.
 
* In order to make sure that the URLs constructed for the links are pointing to the correct archive, a trackDb setting is added to the assembly level trackDb.ra e.g. for zebrafish danRer5:
 
  hgwdev> cd ~/kent/src/hg/makeDb/trackDb/zebrafish/danRer5
  hgwdev> vi trackDb.ra
Edit and add a trackDb setting line like this to the ensGene track:
  ensArchive aug2007
 
* A trackDb dataVersion setting line should be added to show which Ensembl Release was used to create the track
  dataVersion Ensembl Release 46
 
* Add the release number to the longLabel setting for the track.
 
* NOTE: URLs are constructed by the hgc.c code by the printEnsemblUrl() function that is called by doEnsemblGene().
