Header Lines

    chain score tName tSize tStrand tStart tEnd qName qSize qStrand qStart qEnd id 

The initial header line starts with the keyword chain, followed by 11 required attribute values, and ends with a blank line. The attributes include:

The alignment start and end positions are represented as zero-based half-open intervals. For example, the first 100 bases of a sequence would be represented with start position = 0 and end position = 100, and the next 100 bases would be represented as start position = 100 and end position = 200. When the strand value is "-", position coordinates are listed in terms of the reverse-complemented sequence.

Alignment Data Lines

Alignment data lines contain three required attribute values:

    size dt dq

NOTE: The last line of the alignment section contains only one number: the ungapped alignment size of the last block.
