Happy Holidays from the UCSC Genome Browser! —
Here's a card
for you!
+ 21 December 2015 -
+ Two New Assemblies Now Available in the Genome Browser
+
+ A Genome Browser is now available for the frog (Xenopus tropicalis)
+ assembly released September 2012 by the US DOE Joint Genome Institute (JGI-PGF)
+ (JGI v7.0, UCSC version xenTro7). For more
+ information and statistics about this assembly, see the NCBI assembly record
+ for
+ Xtropicalis_v7. There are 7,728 scaffolds with a total size of 1,437,530,879
+ bases.
+
+
+
+ Bulk downloads of the sequence and annotation data may be obtained from the Genome Browser
+ FTP server or the
+ Downloads page.
+ Please observe the conditions for use when
+ accessing and using these data sets. The annotation tracks for this browser were
+ generated by UCSC and collaborators woldwide. See the Credits page for a detailed list of the
+ organizations and individuals who contributed to this release.

+
+ A Genome Browser is now available for the cat (Felis catus)
+ assembly released November 2014 by the International Cat Genome Sequencing Consortium
+ (Broad version EriEur2.0, UCSC version eriEur2). For more
+ information and statistics about this assembly, see the NCBI assembly record
+ for
+ Felis_catus_8.0. There are 267,625 scaffolds with a total size of 2,641,342,258
+ bases.

Output from Related Tables Now Available in the Data Integrator
In the UCSC Genome Browser database, detailed information on the annotations for many tracks
is stored in extra tables. This information can include things such as identifiers
in other databases, transcript status, or other descriptive information. You can now obtain
data from these related tables in your output from the
Data Integrator.
To add related tables to your Data Integrator output, first, select and add at least one
track to your data sources. Then, scroll down to the "Output Options" section and click the
button.
Lastly, at the bottom the section for each selected track, you will see a drop-down menu
labeled "Related tables" which allows you to select and add various tables to your output.
For more information about using the Data Integrator, please see the
User Guide.
Thank you to Angie Hinrichs and Matthew Speir for their work on this feature.

- Data from 1000 Genomes Project Phase 3 Now Available
-
- We have made data from Phase 3 of the
- 1000 Genomes Project
- available for the hg19 version of the human assembly.
- The data includes almost 90 million variants in the form of single nucleotide variants (SNVs),
- insertions/deletions (InDels), and structural variants (SVs). Each variant includes a
- detail page that incorporates links to the variant in the dbSNP database, quality scores,
- and allele frequency information for various populations. More information is available
- on the track description page.
-
-
- In addition to variant calls, the data includes two tracks that highlight regions of the
- genome that are accessible to next generation sequencing technologies that utilize
- paired-end reads. One track contains regions that meet the 1000 Genomes Project
- "pilot" criteria while the other contains regions that meet a more
- "strict" set of guidelines. More information about how these accessible regions
- were identified can be found on the
- track description page.

New "View - In External Tools" Menu Sends Data to Prediction Websites!
Do you often get the current sequence with "View - DNA" just to copy
and paste it into another website? With the new menu "View - In External Tools"
you can now send the current region to remote tools with two clicks.

- New quick links for the Genome Browser's top menu bar :
- The "Genomes" menu now features direct links to jump to browsing the human
- (hg38 and hg19) and mouse (mm10 and mm9) assemblies!

- New keyboard shortcuts on the Genome Browser :
- It's now possible to zoom in and out, navigate left
- and right, hide all tracks, configure the browser display and much more using
- only your keyboard. Use the "?" key to view the entire list of shortcuts.
