Note that the bedToBigBed
utility uses a substantial amount of memory: approximately
25% more RAM than the uncompressed BED input file.
To create a bigChain track, follow these steps:
Step 1. If you already have a chain file you would like to convert to a bigChain, skip to Step 3. Otherwise download this example chain file for the human GRCh38 (hg38) assembly.
