+You can sign-up to get these announcements via our Genome-announce email list. We send around one short announcement email every two weeks.
Smaller software changes are not announced here. A summary of the three-weekly release changes can be found here. For the full list of our daily code changes head to our GitHub page. Lastly, see our credits page for acknowledgments of the data we host.
+ ++We are happy to announce the release of the recount3 track for +hg38 and +mm10. Recount3 +is a comprehensive resource for re-analyzing RNA-seq data. It provides uniformly processed +RNA-seq data and associated metadata from a wide range of studies, enabling researchers to access +and analyze gene expression data in a consistent manner. Recount3 aggregates data from multiple +sources, including the +Sequence Read Archive (SRA) +and the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project, and reprocesses it using a +standardized pipeline. This allows for cross-study comparisons and meta-analyses, facilitating +discoveries in genomics and transcriptomics. +
++The tracks display recount3 intron data, including split read counts and splice junction motifs. +
+
++For hg38, the tracks available are: +
++For mm10: +
++Introns can be filtered by intron size, split read count, splice junction motif, and strand; intron +items are color-coded, with darker colors indicating higher coverage: +
++We would like to thank the ReCount team for making this data available. We would also like to thank +Jeltje van Baren, Mark Diekhans, and Gerardo Perez for their efforts on this release. +
+ +We are excited to announce a new improvement to the UCSC Genome Browser: the Visible Tracks group. The Genome Browser now includes a dynamic track group that automatically displays all currently visible tracks in one convenient location. This means you no longer need to hunt through multiple track categories to adjust tracks you've already turned on.
Previously, managing visible tracks required navigating back to their original categories — whether that was Genes and Gene Predictions, Conservation, Variation, or any other group. Now, all your active tracks appear together in the Visible Tracks group, making it faster and easier
