This feature allows the information to be +viewed without the need to navigate away from the current page:</p> +<div class="text-center"> + <img class='text-center' width="60%" src="../../images/ItemDetails_knownGene.png"> +</div> +<p> +When a track item is clicked in either pack or full mode, the <b>Item Details</b> dialogue box will +appear. This box can be resized by clicking and dragging the button located in its lower-right +corner. For users who prefer viewing item details on a separate page, clicking the new window +button in the upper-right corner will load the information in a new tab. The dialogue box can be +closed by clicking the <b>x</b> button, the <button type="button">Close</button> button, pressing +the Escape key, or by clicking outside the box.</p> +<p> +If desired, this feature can be disabled by unchecking the "Enable pop-up when clicking items +option" on the Configure page. You can access the Configure page by selecting Configure under +Genome Browser in the blue bar menu, by clicking the <button type="button">Configure</button> +button below the browser graphic, or by using the keyboard shortcut "c f".</p> +<div class="text-center"> + <img class='text-center' width="30%" src="../../images/configure_ItemDetails.png"> +</div> +<p> +We would like to thank Christopher Lee, Lou Nassar, Jairo Navarro, and Gerardo Perez for their work +on this release.</p> + <a name="081224"></a> <h2>Aug. 12, 2024 Illumina SpliceAI tracks for human (hg38 and hg19)</h2> <p> We pleased to announce the release of the <b>Illumina SpliceAI</b> tracks for the <a href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&position=default&g=spliceAI" target="_blank">hg38</a> and <a href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg19&position=default&g=spliceAI" target="_blank">hg19</a> human assemblies. SpliceAI is an <a href="https://github.com/Illumina/SpliceAI" target="_blank">open-source</a> deep learning splicing prediction algorithm that can predict splicing alterations caused by DNA variations. Such variants may activate nearby cryptic splice sites, leading to abnormal transcript isoforms. SpliceAI was developed at Illumina; a <a href="https://spliceailookup.broadinstitute.org" target="_blank">lookup tool</a> is provided by the Broad institute.</p> <p> <b>Important</b>: The SpliceAI data on the UCSC Genome Browser is directly from Illumina. However, since SpliceAI refers to the algorithm, and not the
