Details pages contain the patent titles with links to the patents in the Lens database. The data from PatSeq is divided into two tracks, one includes those sequences that were submitted in bulk patents containing 100 or more sequences and the other containing all other sequences. These tracks are currently present on the human (hg19), mouse (mm10), and Ebola virus (eboVir3) genomes.

Thanks to our collaborators at the Lens, Osmat Jefferson and Deniz Koellhofer, for providing the data and feedback on the visualization. Thank you to Max Haeussler and Matthew Speir, members of the UCSC Genome Browser team, for their efforts in creating these tracks.

15 April 2016 - dbSNP 146 Available for hg19 and hg38

We are pleased to announce the release of four tracks derived from NCBI dbSNP Build 146 data, available on the two most recent human assemblies GRCh37/hg19 and GRCh38/hg38. NCBI's dbSNP database is a collection of "simple nucleotide polymorphisms" (SNPs), which are a class of genetic variations that include single nucleotide polymorphisms and small insertions/deletions (indels). This immense database contains over 150 million such SNPs that cover the human genome.

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 worldwide.

4 Apr 2016 - New video shows how to obtain sequence or coordinates for exons.

We have released a new video to our YouTube channel. This newest installment in our effort to share the capabilities of the Genome Browser shows how to use the Table Browser to obtain either the sequences or the coordinates for exons in the genes from a chosen region of the genome.

We also want to take this opportuinty to remind you that we offer @@ -223,30 +225,43 @@ of the Genome Browser.
