- 20 August 2010 - -New ENCODE Integrated Regulation Super-track Released -
- We are pleased to announce the release of the ENCODE Integrated - Regulation super-track, a collection of regulatory tracks containing - state-of-the-art information about the mechanisms that turn genes on and - off at the transcription level. Individual tracks within the set show - enrichment of histone modifications suggestive of enhancer and promoter - activity, DNAse clusters indicating open chromatin, regions of - transcription factor binding, and transcription levels. When viewed in - combination, the complementary nature of the data within these tracks - has the potential to greatly facilitate our understanding of regulatory - DNA. -
-- The data comprising these tracks were generated from hundreds of - experiments on multiple cell lines conducted by labs participating in - the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project, and were submitted to - the UCSC ENCODE Data Coordination Center for display on the Genome - Browser. -
-- Faced with the problem of how to display such a large amount of data - in a manner facilitating analysis, UCSC has developed new visualization - methods that cluster and overlay the data, and then display the - resulting tracks on a single screen. Each of the cell lines in a track - is associated with a particular color. Light, saturated colors are used - to produce the best transparent overlay. + 24 August 2010 - New Drag and Reorder + Functionality Released +
+ We are pleased to announce new functionality in the Genome Browser. It is now + possible to rearrange the order that tracks appear in the browser image + directly from the browser image itself. To reorder tracks, click-and-hold the + side label or gray mini-button of a single track and drag the highlighted track to a new + position within the image.

- The data in the ENCODE Regulation super-track, as with all data from the - production phase of the ENCODE project, have genome-wide coverage. In - general, Genome Browser tracks that show ENCODE-generated data can be - identified by the double-helix icon preceding the name in the track - list. Currently, the ENCODE Regulation data are available only on the - March 2006 (NCBI Build 36, UCSC version hg18) assembly of the human - genome. -
+ Thanks to Tim Dreszer and the rest of the team for implementing and testing this feature. +- For a detailed description of the datasets contained in this super-track - and a discussion of how the tracks can be used synergistically to - examine regions of regulatory functionality within the genome, see the - track description page. + 20 August 2010 - +New ENCODE Integrated Regulation Super-track Released: We are pleased to announce the + release of the ENCODE Integrated Regulation super-track. + Read more.
