<P>This track shows various types of alternative splicing and other
events that result in more than a single transcript from the same
gene. The label by an item describes the type of event. The events are:</P>
<UL>
-<LI>Alternate Promoter (<B>altPromoter</B>) - Transcription starts at multiple places.
+<LI>Alternate Promoter (<B>altPromoter</B>) - Transcription starts at multiple places. The altPromoter extends from 100 bases before to 50 bases after transcription start.
<LI>Alternate Finish Site (<B>altFinish</B>) - Transcription ends at multiple places.
<LI>Cassette Exon (<B>cassetteExon</B>) - Exon is present in some transcripts but
not others. These are found by looking for exons that overlap an intron in the
same transcript.
