+<h2>Description</h2>
+
+<p>
+These tracks represent the experimentally validated promoters generated by 
+the <a href="https://epd.epfl.ch/" target="_blank">Eukaryotic Promoter Database</a>.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Display Conventions and Configuration</h2> 
+
+<p>
+Each item in the track is a representation of the promoter
+sequence identified by EPD.
+The &quot;thin&quot; part of the element represents the 49 bp upstream of the annotated transcription
+start site (TSS) whereas the &quot;thick&quot; part represents the TSS plus 
+10 bp downstream. The relative position of the thick and thin parts
+define the orientation of the promoter.
+</p>
+<p>
+Note that the EPD team has created a
+<a href="hgHubConnect">public track hub</a> containing promoter and supporting annotations for human, mouse,
+and other vertebrate and model organism genomes.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Methods</h2>
+
+<p>
+For a description of the methodology and principles used by EPD to
+predict TSSs, refer to Dreos <i>et al</i>. (2013) in the References
+section below. A more detailed description of how this data was
