Hi Jeremy, The biomaRt service should be working as expected. However, we are aware of the resurfacing of an older bug. This is a known issue but with a currently unknown resolution: https://github.com/grimbough/biomaRt/issues/61. We are working to fix this issue although we are not sure of an exact timeline for the resolution. In the meantime, we suggest using Ensembl release 105 as the last working version. The issue seems to affect gene mart linking. I鈥檝e check genes to variation dataset linkage and that does work so if you can re-write your query to avoid performing the linking between gene marts or using the getLDS command, then the query should work. Please do report any further issues to helpdesk[at]ensembl.org. Best wishes Ben Ensembl Helpdesk]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[In reply to <a href="https://www.ensembl.info/2024/01/18/downtime-of-the-ensembl-search-and-asia-mirror/#comment-98429">Jeremy</a>.

Hi Heather, The variation data is not loading onto the sequence views because there is missing Minor Allele Frequency (MAF) data in the Ensembl 111 release. Essentially, variants do not have an associated MAF in the latest Ensembl release which is affecting the display in the variation tables and sequence views in the genome browser. We are working to fix this for Ensembl 113, which will be released later this year. In the meantime, we suggets using the Ensembl 110 archive, which is unaffected: https://jul2023.archive.ensembl.org/index.html We apologise for any inconvenience. Best wishes Ben Ensembl Helpdesk]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[In reply to <a href="https://www.ensembl.info/2024/01/11/ensembl-111-has-been-released/#comment-98421">Heather</a>.
