- CoGe uses iPlant's Authentication and User Identify Management Service
- After clicking on the confirmation link provided in the automated email, your account may take a few minutes to propagate to all of iPlant's Authentication Services.
Sign-in (link is in top-right of any CoGe page)
NOTE: This wiki (CoGePedia) uses a different authentication than CoGe!

Start:
- From your user profile page (must be logged into CoGe): https://genomevolution.org/CoGe/User.pl
  - Click "Create"-> "New Genome"
  - Go directly to LoadGenome: https://genomevolution.org/CoGe/LoadGenome.pl
Search for Organism "Escherichia coli K12 strain K-12 substrain MG1655" (just type in "MG1655")
Set a version (e.g., "1")
Leave "Type:" as "unmasked"
Source: "CoGe" or "NCBI"
Leave as "Restricted"
Press "Add Data"
Select "FTP/HTTP" tab
Paste in the link below:
- E. coli genome: http://de.iplantcollaborative.org/dl/d/555B53F9-E738-4951-85A3-421E23804DFA/genome_7112.faa
Press "Get"
When finished being retrieved, press "Load Genome"
Note: The length of time it takes to load a genome depends on the load on the database and the number of chromosomes/contigs being loaded. For this example, it should take a minute or two.

Go to GenomeInfo by pressing "View Genome"
Press "Load Gene Annotations"
Set a version (e.g., "1")
Source: "CoGe" or "NCBI"
Leave Restricted
Press "Select Data Files"
Select "FTP/HTTP" Tab
Paste in link below:
- E. coli annotations: http://de.iplantcollaborative.org/dl/d/C1ACC5C3-1E0B-409B-8A91-C969943F41F8/7122-structural-annotations.gff
- Press "Get"
- When finished being retrieved, press "Load Annotations"
When the load is finished, pressing "Genome View" will launch the genome viewer (JBrowse).
Note: The length of time it takes to load annotations depends on the load on the database and the number of annotations being loaded. For this example (and no load on the server), it should take ~ 3-5 minutes.
