Wildlife@Home: [dna] looks like the assimilator is working

[RSS]

Looks like the assimilator is working. I'm running it manually for the time being just to keep double checking things, but at the very least work should be flowing out more steadily. I'm going to do a few more tests with these smaller batches of work units, but after I'm sure things are working the way they should be, I'll put out some longer running work units in larger batches. I should have an interesting data set from the biologists who are looking for human protein binding sites to determine what genes they regulate, related to the SNAI1 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNAI1) and SLUG (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNAI2) transcription factor (which may play a role in cancer development).
