Inconsistent gene names found in UMich data API #292

Open vb-tony opened 1 year ago

vb-tony commented 1 year ago

Hello,

This is an observation with regards to the genes annotations endpoint GET /annotation/genes/ of the UMich data API. I wasn't sure who owned the API but since it is used by LocusZoom (which is why we use it as well), I figured I could start here. Please let me know if I should direct this to another contact.

This is super low priority but a teammate of mine noticed that a couple of the genes have outdated names.

Specifically:

Again, nothing major but figured it didn't hurt to mention. If it doesn't make sense to do any changes or updates, that's okay as well. Or if I need to direct this to a different department, happy to do that too.

Thanks!
