12 February 2015 - Blat Your Assembly Hub
Assembly data hubs, track hubs that allow researchers to annotate genomes that are not in the UCSC Genome Browser, can now use blat to quickly find DNA and protein sequences in their unique assemblies.
While running remote blat servers with the gfServer utility, you can now add lines to your assembly hub's genomes.txt file to inform the Browser where to send blat searches. Or by downloading and installing a virtual machine Genome Browser In a Box (GBiB), you can alternatively locally run gfServers, preinstalled on GBiB, all from your laptop. @@ -96,87 +107,53 @@ both of GRCh37/hg19 and GRCh38/hg38 browsers in the "Variation" group.
The tracks were produced at UCSC by Angie Hinrichs and Jonathan Casper. We'd like to thank the dbSNP group at NCBI for providing access to these data.
As part of this release, we are also retiring the older dbSNP Build 135 and 137 data from display on the GRCh37/hg19 human assembly. Those tracks will still be available for viewing on our preview server, and the associated masked FASTA files will continue to be available on our download server.
