The April 2011 <em>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</em> + genome assembly (Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288c assembly from Saccharomyces Genome + Database (GCA_000146055.2)) was produced by the <A HREF="http://www.yeastgenome.org/" + taget="_blank"><em>Saccharomyces</em> Genome Database (SGD™)</A> project.</p> + + <P> + Chromosomes available in this assembly: chrI, chrII, chrIII, chrIV ... etc ... chrXVI, + and chrM.

If you subsequently resize your browser window, you can automatically adjust the annotation track image size to the new width by clicking the <em>resize</em> button under the track image. The default width can still be manually overridden on the Track Configuration page. <P> <B>Scrolling left or right in the track window:</B> You can now scroll (pan) horizontally through the tracks image by clicking on the image, dragging the cursor to the left or right, then releasing the mouse button. The view may be scrolled by up to one image width. <P> <B>Improved drag-zoom navigation:</B> The browser's "drag-and-zoom" feature lets you quickly zoom to a specific region of interest on the annotation tracks image. To define the region you wish to zoom to, depress the shift key, click-and-hold the mouse button on one edge of the desired zoom area (which can be anywhere in the tracks window), drag the mouse right or left to highlight the selection area, then release the mouse button. The annotation tracks image will automatically zoom to the new region. The Genome Browser still supports the earlier implementation of this feature, which restricted the click-drag to the Base Position track area of the image, but did not require the shift key to be pressed. <P> <B>Reordering groups of tracks:</B> You can now vertically reposition an entire group of associated tracks in the tracks image (such as all the displayed subtracks in a composite track) by clicking and holding the gray bar to the left of the tracks, dragging the group to the new position, then releasing the mouse button. To move a single track up or down, click and hold the mouse button on the side label, drag the highlighted track to the new position, then release the mouse button. <P> If you haven't yet tried the browser's right-click menu for quick access to frequently used track configuration features and functionality, read more <A HREF="goldenPath/newsarch.html#011011">here</A>. <HR> <!-- data hubs release --> <P> <FONT FACE="courier" SIZE="3"><B>18 August 2011 - New Feature: Track Data Hubs: </B></FONT> We are pleased to announce a new feature in the UCSC Genome Browser: Track Data Hubs. Track hubs are web-accessible directories of genomic data that can be viewed on the UCSC Genome Browser alongside native annotation tracks. <A HREF="goldenPath/newsarch.html#081811">Read more</A>. </P> ==> <a href="goldenPath/newsarch.html">News Archives</a> </TD><TD WIDTH=15> </TD></TR></TABLE> <BR></TD></TR></TABLE> </TD></TR></TABLE>
