 Re-engineered OMIM Tracks Released </B></FONT>
 		    <P>
                     We announce today the release of our newly re-engineered OMIM 
                     (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man) tracks for both hg18 and 
                     hg19. With the kind assistance of Ada Hamosh (director), 
                     Joanna Amberger and Francois Schiettecatte of the OMIM project, 
                     we have divided the OMIM records into three separate tracks:
                     </P>
                     <P>
                     <B>OMIM Allelic Variant SNPs</B>
                     <BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
                       Variants in the OMIM database that have associated dbSNP identifiers.
                     </P>
 
                     <P>

                     <BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
                       The genomic positions of gene entries in the OMIM database. 
                       The coloring indicates the associated OMIM phenotype class.
                     </P>
 
                     <P>
                     <B>OMIM Phenotypes - Gene Unknown</B>
                     <BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
                       Regions known to be associated with a phenotype, but for which no 
                       specific gene is known to be causative. This track also includes 
                       known multi-gene syndromes.
                     </P>
 
                     <P>
                     The OMIM tracks are searchable by OMIM number. In most cases, 
                     simply typing the 6-digit MIM number into the position/search box 
                     on the Browser will take you to the record.
                     </P>
 
                     <P>
                     The OMIM data are the property of Johns Hopkins University and 
                     will not be available for download from UCSC. Please contact the 
                     OMIM project at <A HREF = "http://omim.org/downloads"

                     UCSC thanks engineers Fan Hsu, Brooke Rhead and Robert Kuhn for 
                     this release.
