- 5 May 2014 - + 05 May 2014 - Introducing the new stacked overlay for multi-wiggle tracks

We are excited to announce the release of the new stacked overlay method for multi-wiggle tracks. This new stacked overlay method displays each graph stacked on top of each other.

Stacked screenshot

Navigate to the track settings for H3K27Ac Mark on the human hg19 assembly to view this new stacked overlay method on a multi-wiggle track. On the track settings page, from the "Overlay method" drop-down menu select "stacked". Make sure that the display mode is not set to hide, and click submit.

Credit for the implementation and testing of this new feature goes to Brian Raney and Matthew Speir.


29 Apr 2014 - 100-species Conservation track re-release: We released the initial version of the 100-species Conservation track for the hg19 human assembly in November 2013. Over the past few months, we found a couple of inconsistencies and decided, for the integrity of the data, that we should rerun the computation pipeline and re-release the data. Read more

18 April 2014 - New Motif Displays and New Genome Segmentations from ENCODE: The Browser's default displayed Transcription Factor ChIP-seq track updated to the latest release, enhanced with the display of Factorbook motifs. And the Browser added Genome Segmentations from ENCODE tracks, which segment the genome into twenty-five states that were then grouped and colored to highlight predicted functional elements.
