  • Custom tracks can also be loaded via one URL line. The link below loads the same bigGenePred track and sets additional parameters in the URL:

    After this example bigGenePred track is loaded in the Genome Browser, click on the track to change display from dense to pack, then click on a gene in the Browser's track display to view the gene details page. Note that the page offers links to translated protein, predicted mRNA, and genomic sequence.
