+A new 241-way +comparative genomics track has been added to the human +(GRCh38/hg38) genome browser. This track +shows multiple alignments of 241 vertebrate species and measurements of evolutionary +conservation from the Zoonomia Project.
++The multiple alignments were generated using +the Cactus comparative genomics alignment system and the base-wise +conservation scores were computed using phyloP from the PHAST package. For genome +assemblies not available in the genome browser, there are alternative assembly hub +genome browsers. Missing sequence in any assembly is highlighted in the track display +by regions of yellow when zoomed out and by Ns when displayed at base level.
++We would like to thank the Zoonomia Project for providing the data. We would also like to thank Hiram +Clawson, Brian Joseph Raney, Mark Diekhans, Lou Nassar, and Gerardo Perez for their efforts in +creating this track.
+We are pleased to announce the release of the GENCODE Genes VM27 track for the mouse (GRCm39/mm39) Genome Browser.
The GENCODE Genes track (version M27, Dec 2020) shows high-quality manual annotations merged with evidence-based automated annotations across the entire human genome generated by the GENCODE project. By default, this track displays only the basic GENCODE set, splice variants, and non-coding genes. This track contains annotations on the reference chromosomes as well as assembly patches and alternative loci (haplotypes).
