Ensembl 104 and Ensembl Genomes 51 are out!

Following our consultation on simplifying our GRCh37 services, we have decided to remove all support for non-human data from our dedicated GRCh37 database from release 100 onwards in early 2020. This will impact the website at grch37.ensembl.org, the REST server at grch37.rest.ensembl.org and the database at ensembldb.ensembl.org:3337. Non-human data will still be supported on the e75.ensembl.org archive.
In response to feedback during consultation, access to the full data currently provided by the existing GRCh37 REST services will also be made available for at least a year.
Please see our longer post for more details.
RefSeq column returning for GRCh37
Following the response to our switch to the new RefSeq Match column in the transcript tables, we have reverted the tables on GRCh37 back to the old style. The table now lists the RefSeq column as before. We apologise for any confusion this has caused.
Changes to FTP directory layout in Ensembl Genomes 43 / Ensembl 96
We will make changes to the directory layouts of both the Ensembl Genomes FTP server (ftp://ftp.ensemblgenomes.org/pub/) and the Ensembl GRCh37 FTP server (ftp://ftp.ensemblorg.ebi.ac.uk/pub/grch37/) that may affect your pipelines. These changes will come into effect in Ensembl Genomes release 43/Ensembl release 96, which are scheduled for April 2019. Here are the details, so that you can plan any required updates to existing scripts and pipelines ahead of the releases.
